At first four hours on The Battle of Britain felt a bit excessive. They had managed to fit the all of it into part of one paragraph in my high school history book, but then perhaps it’s just that as Americans we don’t much like being reminded how long …

Marshal of Sweetwater is a sixth season episode of Have Gun - Will Travel, the successful western that starred Richard Boone as the poetic gunfighter, Paladin. Below are a few thoughts on this half hour show.
–I don’t think I’ve ever seen a scene on TV or movies where …

I have to say that for the most part, I am preferring the United Kingdom’s version of The Apprentice UK over the American one. It’s more how British Lord Alan Sugar handles the show. It’s not the same as Donald Trump, and he has more surprises, though …

I would only recommend this episode to be watched by those who are or were following the popular nineteen nineties American television series “The X-Files”. This is because this particular episode does not really have to do with any strange and supernatural cases but has to do with something …

The TV show American Idol is a crock of crap and this show should have been taken off the air a long time ago. I mean come on lets all face it the show is the same every single year except with a different winner. We all know how …

‘The Last Posh Frock’ is the last (seventh) episode of Series three of The Good Life and it is a very enjoyable one. Barbara (Felicity Kendal) feels she has lost her femininity since she gave up her posh frocks for the jeans and dungarees more appropriate for their …

Stargate SG-1: Double Jeopardy was Michael Shanks’ debut as a director. It was a daunting task that pretty much took care of any desires he had to direct more. Shanks likes to understand all aspects of show business, which is why he’s dabbled in writing an SG-1 …

I, like most people, was somewhat skeptical when it was announced that Doomsday, the infamous monster who killed Superman, would be coming to Smallville. It seemed odd when they announced that Doomsday was going to be played by Sam Witwer as a paramedic with a dark side. …

I am reviewing The Six Napoleons, a Sherlock Holmes episode from the boxed set, The Adventure of Sherlock HOlmes, which was produced in 1984 by Granada television. This episode finds Sherlock Holmes assisting Lestrade in a most bizarre mystery. Some mad man keeps destroying the last remaining six Napoleon …

Mainstream female comics are few and far between. Certainly, there’s more than a few going strong amongst notable comedy groups and the likes of Victoria Wood, Julie Walters, Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders have all brought us some downright fine entertainment over the years, but since Dawn and Jennifer …

Dancing with the stars is a lame, boring, pointless and unbearable show to watch. I have seen many shows that sucked but this show takes the cake. I think the concept is so dumb, having celebrities pair up and dance with professional dancers and than they are judged each …

Richard Kimball comes face to face with a woman who resembles his late wife in The Fugitive: Ballad for a Ghost. It’s a haunting tale and one that makes you feel a little melancholy. I always liked that he remembered so much of the good. Kimball …

Jason Priestley guest stars in Jeremiah: And the Ground, Sown with Salt, a show that stars Luke Perry. These two actors were quite the rage back in the days of Beverly Hills 90210, a series I never cared for. I’ve been surprised by Perry in this science …

For the most part, I like the show Bones. But, some episodes, like this week’s “the Princess and the Pear” tend to be a bit too dumb to be enjoyable.
This one decided to focus on the fantasy world many people enjoy living in. People who attend comic book conventions, …

My wife and I have been getting a bit bored with some of the shows we normally watch; at least now that we have seen pretty much every older episode. So, for our nightly time alone together, we decided to take a chance and watch something a bit different …

This show revealed a different Superman which I rather liked. The show starts with Clark Kent moving to Metropolis, starting work at the Daily Planet, meeting Lois Lane, and creating Superman. Throughout the show, Clark goes through villain after villain and at the same time you see …

Sea Hunt is a show that has a lot of both hits and misses for me. In the case of Sacred Pool, the 17th program of the third season to air, it’s a bit of a miss. After all, this show is an underwater adventure series. …

For all intents and purposes, M*A*S*H: Hawkeye is a one-man soliloquy as Hawkeye Pierce, traveling alone in a jeep, swerves to avoid hitting some Korean children and ends up turning over the vehicle and getting a bad hit in the head. Realizing that he might have a concussion …

My daughter wanted to watch Scooby Doo yesterday evening after school. Fortunately for her, I was able to find an old episode of The New Scooby Doo Movies on one of our channels. This one also happened to be one I hadn’t seen before, The Ghost of the Red …

This is one of my most memorable episodes of the popular 1990s American television series “The X-Files”. It was memorable to me because of the plot of that particular episode whereas I had always wondered if people who were struck by lightning and survived ever became electrically charged even …

I had heard about the television show Iron Chef. But, until last night, I hadn’t taken the time to watch it. While I found it somewhat interesting, I’m not sure if it’s a show I would watch on a regular basis.
Basically, the premise behind Iron Chef is you have …

Have Gun - Will Travel: A Snare for Murder starts out with the action right away, so there’s no San Francisco scene, which is disappointing. However, what happens is pretty good entertainment. Right from the start, Paladin (Richard Boone) ends up in a mess. He helps …

Death Note Episode 25 begins with L questioning Rem about the Death Notes, but the Shinigami reveals as little as possible about them. Meanwhile, Light makes sure that Rem will have to kill L to protect Misa, and kill herself in the process.
This was a very dark and …

During a performance by a visiting troupe in M*A*S*H: Showtime, little tidbits of story are shown. There’s really no sense to it that I could figure out, but the story segues from a few seconds of a performance to a scene of something that’s happened in the compound. …

Although this show is no longer on the air with new episodes, it is often on with reruns, and the DVDs are readily available at most major retailers, so it is easy to get your hands on them.
We love this show. When there is nothing on televsion, we often …

MTV has gone reality TV crazy and now they have given Paris another reality show where contestants are now vying for the spot to become Paris’ new BFF. What exactly is BFF really? As far as I know, the acronym BFF is Best Friend Forever, so that would mean, …

I have very deep problems with Stargate SG-1: Talion, and this time, Vala isn’t the reason. For years, we’ve seen Teal’c be on the edge. His ‘Jaffa revenge thing’ has put the team at risk, especially Jack. I’ve never liked that. SG-1 is said to …

Arachnophoia is one scariest movies I have ever seen. I saw it as a kid. And at the time I was very scared of spiders. This movie only made my fears worse. The thing about this movie was that the spider killed people and were very dangerous. That and the …

For me, there isn’t anything terribly exciting about this episode of Adam-12 entitled Log 75: Have a Nice Weekend. The segment I key in on more than the others is one with Norma Connolly as Eva Foster. I met the late Ms. Connolly a few times, and …

After a relatively lengthy hiatus of monster of the week episodes, the show returns to its UFO conspiracy arc. This time, the agents find themselves chasing to be the remains of an alien craft that was shot down in Iraq. While the episode lacked the narrative drive …

Like Entertainment Tonight, Showbiz Tonight is a show that started nicely years ago, but has now undergone format, tone, and personnel changes that just don’t go over well with me. This show is like a tabloid on steroids. It’s non-stop hype that annoys, and it’s very repetitive.
There …

I am into ghost whisperer, a series by Jennifer Love Hewit. This has been going on for like 3 seasons already. I followed through this series from season one and I guess watching up until episode 6 of the 4th season, I can say I like this season more …

While the first two series’ may have impressed with its over reaching story arcs and ever developing characters, this third and …

Captain Planet is an ok cartoon show. I don’t love this show yet I don’t hate it. I think the show could have been much better. But I think that Captain American could mop the floor with Captain Planet any day of the week. Now I think that Captain Planet …

I felt it was a mediocre episode. It wasn’t bad, but it was not something very interesting and exciting. It was just another episode on the show, waiting to be forgotten. The human factor of the story always surprises me. You can write a really great episode, with all …

In Re: Curtis Farwell was the fourth episode of Outlaw, a show that has sadly been halted in production after three airings. It hasn’t been canceled as yet, NBC opting to air the five other shows, of which In Re: Curtis Farwell is one, that have already been …

Rush is an Australian TV series set in Melbourne, Australia. I follow this series religiously because it is an eye-opener in terms of the differences between the police in the US and Australia. The accent is a bit difficult to follow, but after a while, you begin to understand …

At some point, I knew Willow’s relationship with Oz was going to go south. After all, he’s a werewolf and, three nights out of the month, he has no control over his actions.

Well, after fighting the kids to bed last night, I was able to tune in to watch the new episode of Psych called Chivalry is Not Dead, But Someone Is.
Perhaps I was a bit tired. But, for some reason, I honestly did not enjoy this one as much as …

I was a little surprised by Wagon Train: The Sam Darland Story because I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. This season six episode reminds me a lot of Boys Town and Father Flanigan, though there isn’t any connection. It’s just the idea that makes …
