Family Guy 8×08: Dog Gone

Stargate SG-1: Death Knell

The first night which is about the two Davids–David Cook and David Archuleta–faced the final battle.
Anyway, it was a good face-off. New information were presented. In fact, it was there where I knew that they’ve never been in the bottom three. It has been said that this season is …
100 Million BC
I was flipping channels today and came across the Sci Fi television series 100 Million BC. Thinking it was the movie by the same name, I turned it on. Wow was I disappointed.

Fame: Reunions
Fame: Reunions begins with a really fun dance class segment where the group is dancing to an African beat and then the comic, Danny Amatullo (Carlo Imperato) slips and practically knocks down the entire class. I liked this opening bit quite a lot.
The title of the show relates …
Flavor of Love Girls: Charm School

Dead Like Me: My Room
In ways, I was disappointed in Dead Like Me: My Room because the advancement of the mother and daughter storyline that had begun two episodes back more or less went down the tubes here. I just didn’t like the downward spiral that was continuing here between Joy and …

Stargate SG-1: Zero Hour
I’ve often felt that the powers that be at SG-1 started season eight with a few good shows and decided to use all of them, even if the timing didn’t necessarily make sense. This episode, Zero Hour, seems like it should have been the starter once Jack was …

MacGyver: GX-1 once again brings back Elyssa Davalos as Nikki Carpenter. As I recall, there was some thought about making her a regular, both as a competent agent for the Phoenix Foundation and as a potential love interest for MacGyver. As I also recall, it just didn’t …
Highway Patrol: : Christmas Story TV Show
Highway Patrol: : Christmas Story was the last show of the first season, airing in June, which seems odd, but that’s okay. Maybe the records are wrong about that, or maybe that is how early television was and I’m just too into what I consider to be normal.
In …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Primeval
OK, I officially can’t wait until we finish the fourth season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. This season has been absolutely terrible and the episode “Primeval” didn’t exactly help matters.

The X-Files Improbable Episode
I first saw this episode of the popular 1990s television series “The X-Files” one night on the cable television channel Sci-Fi. At first I didn’t get to watch all of it since I had only gotten to see the last part of it, however I thought it looked interesting …
Little People, Big World (tv)
One show that I have found rather interesting is broadcasted on the Discovery Channel, and is called Little People, Big World. Maybe it is the social worker in me, but I really do enjoy watching the show. It takes a family in which the parents are both …
