Gene Roddenberry tackles Eden yet again in Star Trek: The Apple. The series creator seems to love to show that books shouldn’t be judged by their covers and that living easy isn’t necessarily living. Man never quite finds paradise in Star Trek.
Another red shirt goes down before …

Another of my favorite ninety minute, color episodes of Wagon Train is The Robert Harrison Clarke Story. It guest stars Michael Rennie, who was a terrific actor. He plays Clarke, an Englishmen who is traveling through the west to basically disprove the many things he’s read in …

The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast presented a 90-minute roast of the legendary George Burns. Filmed in Las Vegas, there were a lot of comics on the dais, which isn’t surprising.
What made this fun is that Burns was in control the whole way. When Gene Kelly stood and …

Filipinos love music. I guess everyone else does. But music is the most closest to every Filipinos heart compared to other mediums of art. Because of this, videoke (video karaoke) and magic sing microphones sells like rice congee. And television networks have invested in this opportunity by staging singing …

Castle is a TV crime genre that stars former Firefly star, Nathan Fillion. It is a great show for anyone who likes crime dramas. I like it for another reason. The premises.
The premises of this show is that a mystery writer is called into help on …

I hadn’t seen any of the Thriller episodes until this year, and I’ve been surprised at the fact that overall I’ve enjoyed them. However, like Dead Legacy which I had just watched, The Weird Tailor is another show that focuses on the occult. This series likes devil …

I am just reviewing this one episode of the series —“ Derren Brown investigates The Ghost Hunter. Derren Brown is the great —˜destroyer of fantasies’ and master of the anti-climax! I do appreciate that he wants to expose the many frauds who prey on people’s need for …

This episode originally aired on October 20, 2008. It is not as funny as the other episodes but it does help to move the plot ahead. It may feel a little boring at times. It concludes the romance between Ted and Stella.
The break-up between Ted and Stella has been …

The latest episode of The Beast, entitled Hothead, had some moments, but it’s suffering a bit from the odd, over-acting of Travis Fimmel, who plays Ellis Dove, the partner of Charles Barker, portrayed by series star Patrick Swayze. There’s just something about Fimmel’s look — it’s a smirk …

This wasn’t the first Real Housewives series that I started watching, but so far it is the only series that I have seen every episode of. The UK TV channel ITV2 has shown the whole series back to back from Mondays - Fridays an episode a day, so I …

The Apprentice U.K. has begun what is apparently its sixth season. I’ve only seen a couple, but I enjoy it, sometimes even better than the United States version. The show began with 16 candidates, all vying to work for Lord Alan Sugar, who they meet for the …

Just this title told me that it had something to do with either Timmy or Jimmy. While I like both characters, having just episodes about them have been hit and miss episodes in general. They haven’t really come up to par with …

I am really a big Charmed fan. It is among the TV shows which runs for quite a number of years. And it is the only TV show which I’ve always watched and never missed any episode, not a single one. In the first few seasons, Shannon Doherty played …

Centennial: The Massacre is one of the most difficult episodes of this epic mini-series to watch. It’s top notch drama and stands up to the ongoing quality and expectations of this series, which is based on the novel by James Michener. That said, it’s hard to watch …

I wish I liked Burn Notice more as a series. It has a lot to offer, but most of the time, it fails to keep me hooked. I begin multi-tasking, even when I don’t mean to. While there have been a few I really like, most of …

Ice Road Truckers: A Legend Meets His End had two story segments that held my interest more than the others. Traditionally, this show follows several truckers as they work the ice roads or, in the case of this season, dangerous roads. There really aren’t that many ice …

As the three-night premier of this season’s Dancing with the Stars continued, it was the ladies who were center stage. There were two ‘wow’ performers for me, and both of them shocked me.

The show …

Let me tell you about the best T.V. series that has ever existed. First of all, Doctor Who is, as you could call it, ancient. It is either one of the first or actually the first science fiction series of all time. The main character is an alien that …

From March 1988, Probe: Now You See It… makes me chuckle. The fun part about the lead character of Austin James (Parker Stevenson) is that he is responsible for some great inventions. One of his creations is what I’ll call the talking elevator. It greets you, …

I said in my review for this show that the adventure series has lost some of its shine from its first ten episodes or so, and that’s really true. There’s a stretch of a few shows here, all in a row, that are just so-so. This is …

I can’t believe we are at 7th season already and this show is still incredibly interesting. It is not like other criminal investigation shows that got really boring after a while, this on is always fresh and interesting.
The last season ended when Tony killed Ziva’s ex boyfriend and she …

The teaser brought some worry for me because it showed the most used material of all and probably what all superheroes have nightmares - losing someone they love at the hands of their archenemies.
It was tried and tested and while this was scary, I wished the show came in …
