From Las Vegas, it was Suzanne Somers being honored as the Woman of the Hour on this edition of The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast. On the dais from Three’s Company were Norman Fell, who was moderately funny in his presentation, and Audra Lindley.
Lorne Greene, Lee Meriwether, Norm Crosby, …

Parking Wars is a reality non-competition show. The half hour program is in its fourth season now, and it follows various parts of the operation of the Philadelphia Parking Authority. I call them the car cops.
New this year is Sherdona, a worker in the parking authority office. …

My wife and I started watching the show Iron Chef very recently. And, while the show does provide some entertainment, I do question whether the show might be a bit overrated.
First of all, watching chefs competing against each other to prepare a five course meal in 60 minutes is …

Have Gun - Will Travel: The Gospel Singer from season five opens with Hey Boy (Kam Tong) advising Richard Boone’s Paladin of a potential job. I’ve noticed that Hey Boy tends to bring Paladin ideas for his jobs all the time now. I guess Paladin doesn’t like …

This was another episode where the bad guys were foreign, and not only that but they were Russians, which in this show is even worst, although Olga is a Russian woman and she works on the project, it is almost as if the show wanted to make it seem …

CSI: Crime Scene Investigation: Shock Waves picks up where last season ended, that being the shooting of Laurence Fishburne’s Dr. Raymond Langston. At the start, he’s being transported to the hospital where initially he’s fighting for his life. That really doesn’t last too long. He ends …

The television series “Monk” was one of those that I began watching from the time the pilot episode premiered years ago. While I don’t remember thinking it was very interesting, especially since I was much younger and my interests differed somewhat, when I got older and my sense of …

It’s another example of big city cops not trusting the little Mayberry sheriff’s office in this February 1962 episode of The Andy Griffith Show called Jailbreak. It’s also another use of the ‘Barney thinks he can do everything’ plot device. Combined, it leads to some good comedy, …

An overhanging wire in the backyard of the David household is spoiling the view, and driving Cheryl nuts. All it’ll take to get rid of it is a final signature from an adjacent neighbour; simple, if not for the fact this is Curb Your Enthusiasm.
Larry is on top …

Columbo: The Complete Third Season DVD set reminds me of diminishing returns. When Universal Studios released season one, it was awesome. The artwork on the DVDs was terrific and the set up of the set was superb. There weren’t any extras, but the show was there …

I definitely have a few thoughts related to Fireball XL5: Drama at Space City. This episode has Steve and Venus going off on vacation, leaving Zoonie to stay with Jonathan Zero, the son of Commander Zero. Meanwhile, Professor Matt Matic takes the relaxation pills that Venus prescribed …

Dan Duryea is back in Laramie: The Mountain Men, and this isn’t one of the roles I prefer to see him in. He did several episodes of this series, though, including the very first episode, Stage Stop. Here he is Ben Sanford, the father of the mountain …

I don’t know how I’ll feel about this episode. On one hand I thought the idea was very interesting. I did not find the criminal himself to be interesting, more did I find his sessions very unique, but I think that the methods he used to commit …

Let me explain something from the very beginning: House M. D. is not a medical TV show but a drama with touches of humour that, incidentally, takes place in a hospital.
Gregory House is a doctor of about forty-five years that heads the Diagnosis Unit of the fictional Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching …

Baywatch was a cool show in it’s time and I loved to watch it. I think Baywatch does not get the credit it deserves as all it is really known for is pretty girls running on the beach and when the show first came out it was a …

In this first of five episodes of Titanic: The Mission, viewers are introduced to the project at hand. This British show evolves around a project that wants to celebrate the engineers of Belfast who were responsible for bringing the historic Titanic to life. Their goal is not …

This is yet another one of my favorite serial that is on discovery channel from Monday to Friday. There are two teams they tried to given a task which is basically mechanical. They also provided time limit to complete. And after completion they have a competition of the product …

I didn’t get to watch the entire Bones season premiere last night because I was busy with a few other things at the time (thanks to my wife turning a simple cleaning project into a complicated redecoration of our living room). What I did see of it, however, did …

Miley Cyrus is perhaps one of the most amazing teenage girl whom brings her dad along to Ellen’s interview.
And this super cute and multi-talented including amazing singer gave a superb appearance on Ellen’s show. If you have watched Miley and Billy Ray Cyrus on Ellen, you would …

I have one word for The Twilight Zone: Probe 7, Over and Out, and the word is: rerun. If you want a phrase, it would be: been there, done that. While the story elements are different, this is a re-do of an earlier story called Two with …

Like I mentioned in another review, my daughter and I were watching older Scooby Doo episodes last night that featured them teaming up with Batman and Robin.
The second episode we watched, The Caped Crusader Caper, was OK but not as good as the first meeting with Batman and Robin …

If you buy this season, prepare to be confused. The show has never been great with continuity, but this season is even worse than others. One of the most glaring problems is Rose’s boyfriend Miles. Miles appears on the show when the couple first meet, and Rose falls in …

One of the fun things about Stargate SG-1: Covenant is that it guest stars Charles Shaughnessy as Alec Colson, a wealthy businessman who is a believer in the public knowing the truth, and while he may not fully know the truth, he knows it’s out there. I love …

The winner was declared on the second part of Top Chef: Finale. Overall, it was a successful show, and I was pleased with the outcome as far as who won the crown.
The action began by picking up exactly where the first half ended last week. That was …

Warehouse 13 is a show about two secret service agents who look for artefacts that can affect human behaviour. In each episode they solve a different case but the warehouse itself holds a mystery that will probably be solved by the end of the season, at least I hope …

That Girl: I’ll Be Suing You is typical That Girl comedy. Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) has borrowed her boyfriend’s brand new car, a lovely red convertible, to take a rubber tree plant to her parents, who live about 30 minutes outside of the city in Brewster, New York. …

To choose the cable service is a no brainier in east coast of USA. As there are only two service providers Verizon and Cablevision. But what to choose from is the difficult part. Well we had cablevision- optimum service since 4 years. If you are a new member then …

What do you buy for your boss’ anniversary? That’s the problem that plagues Officer Jim Reed (Kent McCord) in Adam-12: Anniversary. Jim had the misfortune to take on the challenge for his watch, and that becomes the topic of most of the show’s conversation when not dealing …

The ‘Washington Journal’ is very informative and insightful! I try to watch it as often as I can and it’s definitely one of my favorite programs. I like it because unlike many other cable news programs it’s fact-oriented. I’ve noticed …

An unidentified vessel suddenly travels through the wormhole. It’s out of control and heading right for Babylon 5. Commander Sinclair manages to use a ship to slow it’s trajectory and bring the vessel in for repairs. On board, they find a single humanoid alien that they …

Over the last couple of years, I’ve watched The Closer somewhat irregularly, whenever I would accidentally catch it on TV. I’ve seen some better and worse episodes, and I’ve overall enjoyed the focus of the show, away from the forensic stuff and on the honest-to-goodness old school detective work …

Alias Smith and Jones: The Fifth Victim is one of my favorite episodes from this TV series. The premise is that Heyes and Curry, using their alter egos of Joshua Smith and Thaddeus Jones, end up in a poker game where, one by one, the players end up …

The Twilight Zone: Twenty Two should have been done in October. It would have made a wonderful Halloween edition for this science fiction series. It’s done a super job of scaring me from the moment it first aired. It has that freaky, spooky feeling to it, …

“Bye, Bye Butterfree” is an episode of the “Pokemon” television series. Although this is a farewell episode for one of Ash’s Pokemon, Butterfree, I don’t feel it was very effective. This is only the twenty-first episode of the series and Butterfree never was really used by Ash in particularly …

Ripped Pants was by far my favorite Spongebob Squarepants episode ever. Even after the first time I had ever saw it I knew it was going to be a classic. I have watched many of Spongebob countdowns with my two daughters on television before and this particular episode has …

This was a surprisingly traditional episode of the show. I don’t mean that in the sense that it was a “monster of the week” formula show, but that the plot itself is surprisingly mundane. Yeah, there’s a bit of science fiction, what with the reverse aging procedure, …

This episode features my all time favorite “Real Ghostbusters” adversary, Samhain, the spirit of Halloween. As such, it should come as no surprise to find that this is one of my favorite episodes overall.
Once again, Straczynski shows that he knows how to craft an amazing episode of …

Night Gallery was Rod Serling’s follow up to The Twilight Zone. While not as good, it sometimes has some very interesting tales. At other times, the stories are just so so.
The first story, The Diary, is in the middle of the road. It stars one of …

After camping out, Sokka decides that the group should hoof it for awhile. He explains that he believes the fire nation is able to find them because Appa is too noticeable when they’re airborne. The group teases him about it, despite the fact that it’s a pretty …

From its second season, The Andy Griffith Show: The Manicurist is memorable mainly for its guest star, Barbara Eden. Best known for starring in I Dream of Jeannie, Eden was an eye popper for the men, and that is exactly what this show put in full focus when …

Hosted by William Lundigan, Barry Nelson, Peter Lorre, and Linda Christian starred in the Casino Royale presentation of Climax! It’s presented in acts, which I love. That’s a very classic way of putting on a performance. This is really going back in TV history, to 1954. …

The Twilight Zone: Showdown with Rance McGrew is one of those shows that blends television with the surreal, not just as the theme for a series but for the half-hour drama being watched. It stars Larry Blyden as the title character. He’s a western star who likes …

When I was a kid I watched many cartoons. Not many of them stayed with me however I do remember the Care Bears, I loved them as a kid and although I don’t love them now, it’s dwindled down to a mild like I think they are …

From 1982, Fame: The Sell-Out focuses on a couple of unrelated plots. In the first, Bruno’s dad accidentally short circuits a piece of his son’s equipment at home and when he replaces it, he does so with the best. This upsets Bruno because his taxi-driving father is …

With all the hype surrounding the premiere of the television series Outlander, I honestly thought that it would have been something that I might enjoy. This was especially after I discovered that it would be set between post World War II and that the plot would contain elements of time …

This episode largely deals with the fallout from the previous issue. Mulder is presumed dead and Scully is in hot water with her superiors for her insubordinate actions. While they say that she’s only on extended leave, Scully is convinced that her days at the FBI are …

The soap opera All My Children aired an episode on January 5, 2000 to celebrate its fortieth year on television. They did this by bringing back Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos as the Santos family. As Haley, Ripa then produces a TV special because Pine Valley as …

Jack Dalton is back again, only this time he thinks he’s going as crazy as I think his character really is. He’s sleepwalking and picturing himself shooting MacGyver. Something’s amiss, and he needs Mac to help him figure out what it is. The episode is called Brainwashed, …

I watch the Maury show occasionally from time to time when I am home and there is nothing on television. It is filled with drama and almost every episode is about a DNA test. The women usually brings the potential father of the baby on the show most of …

That Girl: Ten Per Cent of Nothing Is Nothing is okay, but not great, especially since it has some issues. The first issue for me is that we’ve got another case of the rotating agent for Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas). The problem is that they’ve never said …
