American Horror Story: Asylum Episode 1
Though American Horror Story: Asylum is a fairly popular show, I wanted to warn against it. The show is full of sexual content, and violence. After watching the first episode it is clear that the show relies more on shock value than storyline or suspense building techniques. Think more …
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast: Dan Haggerty TV Show
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast continued with the Man of the Hour, Dan Haggerty, best known as Grizzley Adams. The dais featured a few performers known for playing similar outdoor characters along with the usual suspects of ridiculous ‘why bother’ comics.
To be honest, this was the most boring …
The X-Files: Season 1, Episode 21: Tooms

The X-Files: Season 1, Episode 8: Ice

The Two Coreys: Episode 1.8 - Fly Away Haim
In the finale of the first season, Haim makes Joanne (wow, she’s back!) breakfast and screws up the kitchen in the process. What a lovely surprise this is for Susie and Feldman when they discover it that way. However, looks like the breakfast was all for nothing as Joanne …

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex: 2nd Gig Episode 2
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex Episode 2 is the strangest episode in the entire Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex anime, in both seasons, because it does not follow any of the main characters, it is not about any of them and doesn’t enhance the plot …
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Lady
The tenth episode of the second season of Have Gun - Will Travel is called The Lady. It begins with a mysterious lady approaching Paladin (Richard Boone) in his San Francisco hotel, the Hotel Carlton. This is a little different, but fun. She’s a spicy lady …

Red Shirt Logs - featurettes

Word World
This is a children’s show on PBS/KCET. The concept is interesting, and unique. In this world, words equal objects. What I mean is that if one puts the letters B A R N together, the word actually becomes a barn, with the letters still clearly visible. …
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers: Winner TV show
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers: Winner is one of my favorite episodes of this hour long program. The catalyst for the fun is Adam McFadden’s 10 year high school class reunion and it doesn’t go completely smoothly.

Black Bart Pilot Episode

Star Trek: The Menagerie: Part II TV Show
Star Trek: The Menagerie: Part II concludes this action. The Menagerie incorporates much of The Cage, the original pilot for this science fiction series. It was a great idea, and it fueled the desire for The Cage to be released as a show of its own. …
Death Note the Anime
Death Note is an anime series that took my breath away. At first I was skeptic about an anime that could interest me, but after I saw the first episodes I knew this was going to be special.
The story revolves around Light Yagami, a high-school student, head of his …
Question Time - TV Show - BBC 1
I knew when I was starting to mature because on a Thursday night I began to watch Question Time on BBC 1 on a Thursday evening. I think I enjoy watching it because I know that the next day is Friday, but you have to give this show a …
The Simpsons: Tree House of Horror XX
I have watched pretty much every Simpsons Tree House of Horrors episode since the first one and have been very disappointed with some of the more recent episodes. My biggest complaint is they often use some sort of movie spoof of a film that isn’t even a horror movie …
Star Trek: The Next Generation - The Best of Both Worlds Part Two
Star Trek: The Next Generation - The Best of Both Worlds Part Two is almost as good as part one, although it too unfortunately suffers from a few flaws like the first half. For example, it is real unfortunate that the episode does not show any of the fleet’s …
Blacke’s Magic: Death Goes to the Movies
Blacke’s Magic: Death Goes to the Movies is a fun entry in my opinion. I like it because the theme is the movie industry, which I’m interested in. In the beginning, magician Alexander Blacke (Hal Linden) is helping a movie company to stage an important part of …
Candid Camera television show
A couple of years ago when we first had gotten cable television, I my parents had introduced me to an old American prank television show called “Candid Camera”. I thought that the concept of it was a bit strange since at the time I did not know that there …
The Virginian: Show Me a Hero TV Show
The draw for me in this edition of The Virginian, called Show Me a Hero, was a nice strong cast of guest stars. This was a show that was done away from Shiloh Ranch. The last couple had been ensemble episodes, and I’d enjoyed those, but now …

I haven’t seen the show I dream of Jeannie in ages. But, I was home today taking care of our youngest daughter and, since I didn’t have anything better to do, I was watching re-runs on TV.

The Haunted (Animal Planet)

Gundam 00 As Sunrise’s Breakthrough
Gundam 00 is probably the best in the gundam series franchise.

Hell’s Kitchen TV Show
I started watching this show last year once I turned the TV on one day and this show was on. I never thought I would like it because on the promos all I saw was Chef Gordon Ramsay yelling at people, and I thought, “Who would want to watch …
The Twilight Zone: The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street TV Show
I don’t like watching The Twilight Zone: The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street, not because the show is bad, but because it’s so accurate. The show is very well done and has some very believable acting within it. I just hate seeing the harshness of man …
Mr. Monk and the Miracle
Well, Monk isn’t on the air again for at least another month but at least we got a quick fix with the annual Christmas special “Mr. Monk and the Miracle.”

Lone Star: One in Every Family TV Show
Well, the truth is that even before I had a chance to watch this second episode of Lone Star, I read that the series has been canceled. It’s the first casualty of Fall 2010 TV season. I must say that the network didn’t give this show much …
SyFy channel
Formerly called the Sci-fi channel, this TV channel really has gone down hill. They show a few good programs, but they repeat them over and over and over…..and over. Their new programs are not as good as the old ones, either. One of the shows, a BSG …
That ’70s Show
I grew up in the seventies and when I watched my first episode of That 70s Show, it was extremely nostalgic; it was almost like being transported back in time. The teenagers on that show have the same relationships and experiences that my friends and I had back then. …
