Criminal Minds Season 6, Episode 2: “JJ”
It’s hard to say I love an episode that means saying goodbye to a loved character. I knew AJ Cook, who played JJ, was going to leave in the second episode of season 6, and I was dreading it. However, I think everyone involved did a beautiful …
Pysch: Extradition from British Columbia
After being disappointed by the Monk Season Premiere, I was glad when Psych came on to save the day.
The season premiere of that show “Extradition from British Columbia” turned out to be much better than expected and I think I’m starting to think of this show as my favorite …
The Real Ghostbusters: Season 1, Episode 56: Masquerade
The synopsis for this episode filled me with dread. If there’s one concept in this show more loathed than Slimer, it’s the Junior Ghostbusters and this is the episode that plants the seed for that concept. I was all ready to hate this episode and bash on …

The Dean Martin Comedy Hour: Ed McMahon TV Show
Johnny Carson’s The Tonight Show sidekick Ed McMahon was the Man of the Week on this edition of The Dean Martin Comedy Hour. Carson was roasted himself a few episodes after this one. Oddly, Carson didn’t attend this roast, and McMahon wasn’t at Carson’s. You’d think …

MMK: Doll House episode

Jeepers Creepers 2
When the movie Jeepers Creepers came out a few years ago, I thought it was one of the better horror movies I’ve seen. In fact, I haven’t seen the movie in quite some time but can still remember pretty much the entire thing; a sign of a good movie.
I …
Mr. Monk and the Candidate
Even though this isn’t the best Monk episode ever, the first Episode of the series does a great job introducing us to the comic detective and gives us a better understanding of the obstacles he faces if he ever hopes to become a member of the police department again.
Monk …
Sea Hunt: Diplomatic Pouch TV Show
The 38th episode of Sea Hunt’s third season was another one of these political intrigue shows that I really don’t like very much. I so prefer the almost non-existent ocean life shows or even the episodes focused on technological advances over these small fabricated country tales. The …
24 Season 7
The conclusion of 24 Season 7 was aired last Tuesday and I couldn’t help but be sad about this. For the past four months, I have been religiously watching and anticipating each episode over the Internet since the Television premier is about two months late.
Unlike the first …
Beast Wars - Other Visits, Part 2
Beast Wars - Other Visits, Part 2 is superior to the first part, but I have to say, this episode does not offer any answers to the questions set up in the first half. For example, why did the aliens return? Why is the alien structure not manned? How …
Dempsey and Makepeace, UK TV programme
This was an awesome programme. The two leads had such a good chemistry together, they ended up getting married in real life. Cop shows have always been popular, from both sides of the pond, and teaming up an American cop with a British one worked like a …
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast: Jimmy Stewart TV Show
The great and awesome Jimmy Stewart is the Man of the Hour in The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast, which was taped in Las Vegas. Right off the bat, I’ll say that the wonder of this hour is the quality of the talent there to roast Stewart. There …
Highway Patrol: Motel Robbery TV Show
The eleventh episode of the second season of Highway Patrol was called Motel Robbery and, as the title indicates, focused on a three person robbery ring. The three had a great system set up where one of them would check in to a hotel and get the needed …
The Backyardigans TV show
I am amazed at how truly entertaining and educational this show is. I’ve been watching it for a few weeks now with my six month old son. I am truly impressed. I can’t stand to watch most of the preschool programming that comes on TV. They’re usually so boring or …
CHiPs: Cry Wolf
The opening teaser in CHiPs: Cry Wolf is memorable and funny, not for the actual plot, but because they show stock footage of Station 51 from Emergency! responding. Then when we get to the scene and it’s a different engine and squad and it’s now numbered ‘519′. …
Sports Unlimited
Being a sports lover and being active in different sports, I must say that, for me, Sports Unlimited is a gem of a TV program here in the Philippines.
It’s basically a TV show in ABS-CBN Channel 2 (a local broadcasting network) every Saturday, 12 am, which essentially covers different …
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex: 2nd Gig Episode 7
Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex 2nd Gig Episode 7 has Section 9 transporting some plutonium to a safe play away from where the refugees are.
This episode was very well done and it was very interesting and revealed some of the interesting plot and it might …
Brothers and Sisters
Brothers and Sisters is a television show about families. At first glance the show appeared to me to be dull, another soap opera style drama on prime time. After watching a couple of episodes I was engrossed.n The premise of the show is that a large …
Forever TV Show Episode Two: Look Before You Leap
Forever is a new TV show that is featured on the ABC network. Given that I enjoyed the very first episode, I made sure I geared up and watched the second. Now, given that I pretty much had an idea on what the show will generally will be about, …
CSI: New York: Point of View TV Show
I’ve always wanted to like CSI: New York because Gary Sinese is such a talented, dynamic actor. I actually do like, but I’ve never been hooked into it. I watched it more the first season when Sinese’s character was more in mourning over his wife, who had …
The X-Files Badlaa Episode
This is by far one of the creepiest X-Files episodes I have ever watched. The thing is I don’t remember watching this one as a child in the 90s, but what I do remember is watching it recently and feeling a bit disturbed during the episode and when it …
The Twilight Zone: A Nice Place to Visit TV Show
Larry Blyden is the main subject of The Twilight Zone: A Nice Place to Visit, which is one of the first season episodes of this great TV series that I’m not very fond of. It’s just not a story that tickles my fancy. There’s nothing particularly wrong …

The Simpsons: See Homer Run
Well, that was an episode of the Simpsons I haven’t seen before; See Homer Run. It was an OK episode but wasn’t the greatest though.
Basically, it’s Father’s Day and Bart gets Homer an amazing gift (I like how Marge tells Bart it isn’t from him if he doesn’t pay …
FOX TV Series: Lie to Me
One of the latest midseason replacement TV series to come out of FOX, I saw the listing for “Lie to Me” and watched out of simple curiosity. I have to admit that my feelings for this show are somewhat mixed.

The Biggest Loser

Highway Patrol: Portrait of Death TV Show
Highway Patrol: Portrait of Death is the 7th episode of the fourth year, airing back in November 1958. Police dramas were different then. This show which has been considered a leader from early television is rather tame and has some real staging and directing problems. However, …
Doctor Who: Season 3, Episode 11: Blink
Much like “Love and Monsters”, this is an episode where the Doctor only plays a peripheral role. Unlike the aforementioned episode, this is one of the more highly regarded in the series. I had high hopes for this episode as it is often cited as one of …
Entertainment Tonight
There was a time when Entertainment Tonight was a viable, worthwhile entertainment news magazine. I actually saw their first show, so I’ve witnessed a bunch of changes in format, tone, and hosts. While change is sometimes good, it’s also sometimes bad. Right now, when I think …
Ally McBeal
Ally McBeal was a fun show about a girl who followed her boyfriend to law school, was dumped for another girl and now has a job at the same law firm the guy she was dumped by and the girl she was dumped for who is now his wife …
Getting On (BBC4)
Comediennes Jo Brand, and the lesser known Jo Scanlan and Vicki Pepperdine bring us a satirical look at the day to day workings of a modern NHS hospital.
It’s a strange show to first get into, using mainly ad-libbed dialogue and some camera work you’d expect from the likes …
20 Most Horrifying Hollywood Murders
I was scrolling down TVguide.com this morning and came across the show 20 Most Horrifying Hollywood Murders on E! Since that sort of thing intrigues me, I figured I would give it a chance tonight.
It was an OK show but it wasn’t as good as I expected it to …
Simpsons TV Episode: Weekend at Burnsie’s
Well, the Simpsons repeat that was on last night wasn’t terrible but it also wasn’t what I was expecting it to be.
Weekend at Burnsie’s had so much potential. Homer injures his eye after befriending a bunch of crows only to make them mad at him later (I wonder what …

The X-files The Amazing Maleeni Episode
This episode of the popular 90s American television show “The X-Files” was one of the most memorable episodes. I watched it many years ago and still cannot forget it because a particular part of the introduction make me cringe. It takes a lot to make me cringe too, as …
Destination Truth: Island of the Dolls/Lusca
After watching Destination Truth last week for the first time, I couldn’t wait for last night’s episode “Island of the Dolls/Lusca.” It did not disappoint.
Even my wife, who didn’t get a chance to watch the show with me last week, was impressed.
The first case on this one was definitely …
The Twilight Zone: Caesar and Me TV Show
Goodness, it’s another show about ventriloquists and their dummies. I just do not like these episodes of any show, and it’s a letdown to see one on a good show like The Twilight Zone. Never the less, that’s what viewers got in April 1964 with the episode …
Bones: Death in the Saddle
When I first came across the Bones episode “Death in the Saddle” I figured it would involve a murder of some sort of horse enthusiast. Boy, was I surprised when it was an episode about a sexual fetish.
Now, I’m far from being a prude when it comes to sex, …
Wagon Train: The Bleeker Story
This is a non-Robert Fuller episode of Wagon Train, except for a piece of stock footage inserted at the tail end of the show for comedic effect. The man had a great contract, that’s for sure. The Bleeker Story is the story of a family that Duke …
Numb3rs: Backscatter TV Show
The Backscatter episode of Numb3rs began with what I perceive to be a ridiculous chase seen. We know it’s a hacker doing something from an alley. They get blocked in, both front and back, and yet the two get out of the car and out of the …
