Burn Notice: Double Booked
Burn Notice: Double Booked was the second episode I’ve seen of this series that didn’t have Michael Shanks as a guest star that I could say that I liked and enjoyed watching. Overall, the show just doesn’t do it for me, even though it’s a smart show with …
Spongebob Squarepants: Atlantis SquarePantis
My daughter loves watching Spongebob Squarepants. So, when we found out there was a television movie coming out called Atlantis SquarePantis, we made sure to watch it. Overall, it was an OK show but really wasn�t anything special.
The �movie� featured Spongebob and his friends discovering the lost city of …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Death Watch TV Show
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Death Watch, episode 9 from season 3, stars Richard Basehart as Admiral Harriman Nelson and David Hedison as Captain Crane. Crane was always my favorite as I just adored Hedison. He certainly had the look, voice, and demeanor to …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Graduation Day
I have to say, as far as Buffy the Vampire Slayer goes, the third season has got to be one of the most violent seasons I have seen of any series. The finale; a two part episode entitled “Graduation Day” is a great example.

Highway Patrol: Dan Sick TV Show
Dan Sick was the 38th episode of Highway Patrol’s third season, and it focused on Chief Dan Mathews, as played by Broderick Crawford, becoming ill quite suddenly. Though I have issues with how the show proceeded in spots, it was actually an enjoyable half hour that had me interested …
Highway Patrol: The Judge TV Show
From May 1958, Highway Patrol: The Judge had some good elements to it, along with some really dumb bits. In short, we have an escapee from prison named Baker (Robert Courtleigh), who wants nothing more than revenge against the judge who put him behind bars.
Paul Cavanagh guest stars …
Highway Patrol: Mountain Copter TV Show
Highway Patrol: Mountain Copter was a show that just had me pulling out my hair from the way the action went down. However, it’s not the fault of the show, but rather the changing times.
For example, never in a billion years today would you see the ranger at …
Emerald Point N.A.S.: Pilot Part 2
Emerald Point N.A.S. was more soap opera than military drama, and I think I have always regretted that. I knew that it is what it would be all along, but I was hoping for more guts and glory than extramarital affairs and scheming. As the second part …
Star Wars: The Clone Wars - Episode 1.12: The Gungan General
“The Gungan General” is another gem in this season. It continues the plot from “Dooku Captured” where the Count has been taken away and imprisoned by space pirates while Anakin and Obi-Wan are trapped within a cave (thanks to the Count).

Spongebob: Frankendoodle
Ok, I will admit it, while one of the stupidest Spongebob Squarepants epiosodes I’ve ever seen, the episode “Frankendoodle” is actually quite funny; in fact, it might be one of the funnier episodes I’ve seen in a while.
I’m still a bit confused about why a pencil lost by an …
Centennial: The Winds of Death

Outsourced: Pilot TV Show

Sanctuary show

Randy Jacksons Americas Best Dance Crew

Criminal Minds the TV Series
I have mixed feelings about this show. On one hand, the story line borders on the dark side of humanity, and it sometimes scares me a lot. On the other hand, the plots are very interesting and seem very believable. I like the acting of Thomas Gibson as Agent …
Fireball XL5: Space Immigrants
From 1962, Gerry Anderson’s Fireball XL5: Space Immigrants is a mixture of ‘rah, women’s lib’ and ‘oops, she can’t do it without her man’. Okay, that’s not the plot, but it’s how the plot made me feel. The adorable, sexy space doctor of medicine, Doctor Venus, is …

Qur’an Channel 4 Programme
