TV Reviews
One on One (CW network sitcom)
If there was ever an example of a trifling sitcom, this is it. I hate that I am saying this about a show that pairs a young girl with her father in a single-parent environment. Typically, black single parents on television are usually women. But seeing …
Hammertime (Reality Show)
I was a little leery of watching MC Hammer’s new reality show. It seems that every rapper or washed up celebrity is trying to keep their career going by inviting cameras into their personal lives. I will admit that I enjoyed one or two of his …
Avatar: The Last Airbender: Book 3, Episode 3: The Painted Lady
Team Avatar comes to a small fishing town that has been ravaged by pollution courtesy of a fire nation military factory. I was a bit worried when the episode started out, having grown up in the age of Fern Gully and Captain Planet, I really don’t need some …
Private Practice show
Private Practice is the Grey’s Anatomy spin off that stands alone. When Addison first left to go visit Naomi in California I thought she would be returning to Seattle Grace but I was wrong. She stayed at Oceanside Wellness and the results have been amazing.
The fact that the divorced …
ICarly TV Episode: I saw Him First
As I mentioned a short time ago in another review, I don’t normally watch the show ICarly. But, my daughter was watching something else on one of our Nick stations and, because I never changed the channel, it was on while I was doing something else.
The episode I ended …

Diagnosis Murder: Misdiagnosis Murder TV Show
Diagnosis Murder: Misdiagnosis Murder is a show I just don’t enjoy. It’s heavy on the Dr. Jesse Travis (Charlie Schlatter) character, and he’s my least favorite of all. He never follows orders, and he’s so hyper in this outing from the lack of sleep that I just want …
The Wendy Williams Television Talk Show
In a time when everyone from D-list celebrities to former supermodels has their own television talk shows, I find “The Wendy Williams Show” to be extremely refreshing. Every aspect of the show is fabulous- from its larger than life host Wendy Williams to the outrageous and super flamboyant …

M*A*S*H: I Hate a Mystery
While M*A*S*H: I Hate a Mystery has some very nice elements to it, I also feel like it has some flaws as well that detract from the show as a whole.
What happens in this first season episode is that belongings begin to disappear, beginning with a silver picture …
HGTV Showdown - Battle of the Design Stars
HGTV Showdown is an interesting interior design television show on the Home and Garden Channel that pits teams of designers against one another. Each team is comprised of two members, and they each take on the same challenge.
The challenge is also the prize. Usually, a couple has …
Stargate SG-1: Memento
The Prometheus finally goes on her shakedown cruise in Stargate SG-1: Memento. There are actually elements of this season six episode that I like, notably John Novak as Colonel William Ronson, the commander of the Prometheus. He and Jack clash in the opening scenes, and it’s pretty …
Ghost Hunters: Hellfire Caves
Well, that was interesting. I must have missed something in the third season of Ghost Hunters because the TAPS team apparently went to England to do some investigations; one of with was the Hellfire Caves investigation.
I had heard of the Hellfire Club before but reading about them and seeing …
Home Improvement: Adios
Since there wasn’t anything really worth watching on TV yesterday afternoon, I ended up watching Home Improvement re-runs; including the one where Randy leaves the show to go to Costa Rica.
This was the first time I have seen this episode (though I have heard about it) and I have …

1000 Ways to Die
Not a lot of things make me paranoid, but the television show “1000 Ways to Die” might be number one on the top of that small list. Not a lot of people seem to know about that show either, as unlike some shows this one is not promoted as …
Dancing with the Stars - Elimination 3/24/09
The elimination show for Dancing with the Stars began with a recap of the night before. All the expected highlights were there, leaving me equally frustrated with the judges’ votes as I had been on Monday.
The stun of the night came with less than ten minutes into the …

House TV show
I really believe House is the best show on television today. Fox found a hit when they started airing it. I’ve never been a big fan of medical shows but this one has the right combination of drama and comedy to keep me wanting to tune in every week.
The …

Emerald Point N.A.S.: Episode 10
It’s the morning after in Emerald Point N.A.S., the tenth episode. My hero of the show, Lt. Simon Adams, let me down, though I figured it would happen eventually. What I really don’t like are all the lies that these supposedly honest people tell. Simon is in …
Heroes tv program
This show is really good, the first couple of episodes I was non-plussed, but now it has me really sucked in and I find I HAVE to watch every week. It follows a group of seemingly unrelated people who suddenly develop special powers and how they try …
Ghost Whisperer 4th season

Betty La Fea TV program
I’m currently watching Betty La Fea of ABS-CBN. It is a local TV program aired every weeknight. It showcased Bea Alonzo playing the part of the ugly Betty and John Lloyd Cruz as Armando, the leading man. The two matched up perfectly. Their roles fit their personalities and their …

Heartland
The new TNT medical show heartland is far from a show that gets to the heart. The star Treat Williams who always plays a murderer in shows is great playing a murderer, but when it comes to playing a doctor he is so unconvincing. You never see …
Stargate SG-1: Revisions
I love Stargate SG-1: Revisions. It’s one of my favorites, and I really can’t tell you why, except I get a kick out of it. I love the little town where they filmed the show; it was so cute and quaint.
Actually, what I see Stargate SG-1: Revisions, …

The X-Files: Season 1, Episode 23: Roland
On its own merits, this episode is not half bad. The one major drawback is that the plot is very, very similar to that of the last episode. While comparison between this and “Born Again” were inevitable, I can’t help but feel like the producers made a …
