Avatar: The Last Airbender (cartoon)
I’m the kind of person who is all about meditation and the benefits we can all reap from it, so when I discovered that the kid show: the Avatar is about a monk I thought it was one of the coolest things on TV. That’s one cool thing that …
Sea Hunt: Hot Tracer TV Show
In Sea Hunt: Hot Tracer, as often happens, Mike Nelson (Lloyd Bridges) is teaching a man how to dive, only the man doesn’t have the right attitude. This young man is a hot shot athlete, and he just doesn’t take diving as seriously as he should, which …
Stargate SG-1: Message in a Bottle
Stargate SG-1: Message in a Bottle is a good episode that isn’t a big favorite, but is still a very enjoyable show with some nice moments in it.
In this second season program, SG-1 finds an object off-world and bring it back to the SGC to study. This is …
Barefoot Contessa (Food Network TV show)
I absolutely love cooking shows. But I have to admit that this one is a favorite because the Barefoot Contessa cooks with such love and commitment. IN fact, I like the show because she often cooks meals and serves her husband and friends. He always …
Sea Hunt: Water Ski Show TV Show
Water Ski Show was the twenty-second episode of Sea Hunt’s second season on the air. The title pretty much states what the focus of this particular episode was. We have Mike Nelson, our resident underwater expert when it comes to deep sea diving, helping out some stunt …
World’s Untold Stories
When I sit in front of TV, I just switch to entertainment programs or some programs that I like. I rarely to watch the everyday news like my husband always do. The other day, my husband asked me to watch CNN news (his favorite program) with him. That show …
That Girl: Stocks and the Single Girl
Overall, I enjoyed That Girl: Stocks and the Single Girl from season four of this hit ABC series. It had some great laughs in it, and it entertained me fully for the full half-hour or so. That said, while this is a different take on the rich …
House: Saviors
Last night’s episode of House, entitled “Saviors” was actually one of the better House episodes I’ve seen in recent history.
This, of course, is the episode that takes place one week after the shocker involving Kutner’s suicide and the team has to figure out the cause of an environmentalist’s sudden …
Gilligan’s Island - Take a Dare TV Show
Here we have George Barkley rolled by Strother Martin introduced to the island. He actually plays a strong willed but passionate character. But he has downfalls of his own. Ginger actually picked up on one and another is greed. If Barkley would have worked with the Castaways instead of …
Rising Stars tv series
I think of “Rising Stars” as the Jamaican version to the American reality television series “American Idol”. I never did like watching the television show a lot since it focuses on mainly the mainstream music, and I have never seen a contestant who I found was worth my time …
Kim Kardashian on Dancing With the Stars
Ok. I’m a sucker. I watch anything with Kim Kardashian on it. I think she’s perfect for the show; you can tell that she has no dance experience. I hope she is kept on the show by viewers so we can see how much she has improved. I think …
Stargate SG-1: New Order Part 2
Stargate SG-1: New Order Part 2 makes the big transition official, but not until Jack has been unfrozen and the System Lords sent on their way.
The fun part of this episode is when Thor beams Daniel up to his ship, The Daniel Jackson. I adore that! Daniel …
Family Guy TV Show
This is a show I thought I would never like. For a long time I wouldn’t even give it a chance. I don’t even think I realized that it wasn’t a cartoon for kids. I honestly thought that it was so I figured I wouldn’t like it. But since …
Best Dance Crew
The other day I was watching mtv and I caught a couple of episodes of Randy Jackson Presents Americas best dance crew. I really enjoyed watching it and I watched the live auditions for season two and the first episode of season two. I enjoy watching this show because …
The Lazarus Man: Among the Dead
Among the Dead is episode 11 of The Lazarus Man, a western drama of sorts that aired in 1996 and starred Robert Urich in the title role. The show can be a bit confusing from time to time because of the intercutting of flashbacks or visions. There …
Centennial: The Crime
The most emotional portion of Centennial: The Crime is the demise of Oliver Seccombe. He was an interesting character because he did do some bad things, such as running out on Levi and Elly Zendt, leaving them to fend for themselves; , claiming not to be responsible for …
En Garde Project Runway
I honestly believe the only reason Project Runway does team challenges is in an effort to create tension among the designers. I mean, who would have thought you could see Rami fight with anyone, especially Sweet Pea.
Last night’s challenge was definitely an interesting one though. The designers had to …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Consequences
I have now watched the first 2 ½ seasons of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and have never seen an episode so filled with emotion as “Consequences.”
This episode takes place right after Faith accidentally kills a person thinking he was a vampire and deals with her and Buffy’s efforts to …
Venture Bros TV show
Venture Bros is quite possibly the best Adult Swim original show. It follows the adventures of a super-scientist, his two teenage sons and his bodyguard as they face assorted villains, including Dr. Venture’s nemesis, the Monarch. But while this may sound like a standard action-adventure series, it’s far …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: On the Orient, North TV Show
Consider The Ray Bradbury Theater: On the Orient, North, Bradbury’s version of Murder on the Orient Express, which is even referenced at the very beginning of the episode. It features Magali Noel as Minerva Halliday who offers to help someone described only as ‘the ghastly passenger’. Frankly, …
Legend: Custer’s Next to Last Stand
Custer’s Next to Last Stand is the fourth episode of this Richard Dean Anderson futuristic western from May 1995. As many of the shows do, this one combines some realism with their fiction. As you can tell from the title, it’s George Custer who gets the honor …

Highway Patrol: Car Theft TV Show
Car Theft is a first season episode for the classic 1950’s police drama, Highway Patrol, which starred Broderick Crawford as Chief Dan Mathews, the head of the California Highway Patrol. The basic concept of this particular outing was that this car ring would go to junk yards and …
Sea Hunt: Asylum TV Show
In January 1960, Lloyd Bridges’ hit series, Sea Hunt, began its third season on the air with an episode entitled Asylum. My first thought was ‘oh, no - another spy show’. However, this one was very watchable. The show begins with Mike Nelson (Bridges) in Nassau …
Star Trek: The Mark of Gideon TV Show
Star Trek: The Mark of Gideon is a show with another message and this time the topic is population control. We have Kirk beaming down to the planet Gideon and finding himself still aboard the Enterprise, only no one else is around; that is, until he finds …
Legend: Birth of a Legend
Legend only ran for one season, but it was certainly a different season. This show stars Richard Dean Anderson as Ernest Pratt, a writer with a writing block. Now Anderson here is a far cry from MacGyver, whom he’d just left behind him. He has a …
M*A*S*H: April Fools
The final show of the eighth season, and the last one to feature more than 20 episodes, is M*A*S*H: April Fools. Though it’s only March, the 4077th has begun its pranks early. All of these are pretty funny. However, Colonel Sherman Potter (Harry Morgan) asks his …
Justice League Unlimited Season One: Fearful Symmetry
Fearful Symmetry is the rather bland fourth episode of Justice League Unlimited, season one. The episode stars Supergirl, which is normally a good thing. However, the episode is light on action and the plot is not all that interesting.
I did enjoy that the writers stuck Supergirl with …
Remington Steele: Steele Belted TV Show
From season one in November 1982, Remington Steele: Steele Belted was fairly interesting. It began with Steele’s condo being ransacked, though Laura Holt doesn’t seem to care. It’s not until he ends up in the middle of things himself, that Holt lets Steele in on the current …
For Warrick Episode
I finished watching the latest season of CSI: Las Vegas season 9, first episode entitled,
“For Warrick”. I could not believe it myself that they have actually killed Warrick’s character in this series. I have like seen him in all of the episodes of the CSI Las Vegas. He was …
Thriller: A Third for Pinochle TV Show
When Thriller: A Third for Pinochle began, I had visions of this show being a copy of Arsenic and Old Lace, but it wasn’t. Certainly, it had some of that attitude and feel because of the two elderly sisters featured in the hour long drama, but there’s really …
Mission: Impossible: My Friend, My Enemy TV Show
I loved the Mission: Impossible series when it first aired, though I admit that when some of the originals left the show, I stopped watching with regularity. The episode, My Friend, My Enemy, is from the fifth season when Leonard Nimoy was a regular, playing the role of …

What do you buy for your boss’ anniversary? That’s the problem that plagues Officer Jim Reed (Kent McCord) in Adam-12: Anniversary. Jim had the misfortune to take on the challenge for his watch, and that becomes the topic of most of the show’s conversation when not dealing …
Neon Genesis Evangelion episode 14
Well, what do we have here? A episode that provides an summary of the last episodes up till this point. This is the elusive recap episode that every series has for reasons that are beyond even me. Well, at least Neon Genesis Evangelion makes it in an original format. …
Gossip Girls TV Show
Oh wow. I adore Gossip Girls. I don’t understand though, how teenagers get to drink ALL THE TIME and never get carded. That’s the only thing. However, the production of the series is quality, I love the actors, and can’t wait to see what they do with season 3. …
Due South: Hunting Season
As Due South winds down, it gave us a storyline twist that really proved to be quite interesting. Due South: Hunting Season guest stars Jessica Steen as Constable Maggie MacKenzie who comes to Chicago for much the same reason as Constable Benton Fraser had, to track down a …
Batman Beyond (tv series)
While I was not fortunate enough to possess the comics themselves, I grew up being interested in superheroes and looking forward to watching Batman on a Saturday morning as a child. He still is actually one of my favourite DC characters, who I’m a little sensitive about when it …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Deadly Creature Below! TV Show
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Deadly Creature Below! was the 16th show to air during the 1965-1966 TV season, which was the second year of this sci fi series about the nuclear submarine, Seaview. The Seaview should have billing: it’s a vital part of what makes …
Big Brother 11
Big Brother 11 is the newest season for the Big Brother show. It aires every Teusday, Thursday and Sunday during the summer of 2009. I have been watching this show for years and this season is no exception.
At first I was underwhelmed with the new cast. Not too much …
Pure Pwnage
What can I say? This is one of the funniest tv shows that I have ever seen in my entire life. I can’t believe that it has taken me until now to actually see the show, I don’t know how I’ve missed hearing about it all this …
Super Mario World - Gopher Bash
Super Mario World - “Gopher Bash” is episode nine of the series and finally is an episode that focuses on Luigi. Instead of Mario trying to make life easier for the cave people, Luigi is now taking a stab at it by trying to teach them how to grow …
Stargate SG1: The First Commandment
This episode dealt with a Colonel from Stargate Command who actually fell for the, “You’re a God,” rhetoric that primitive people always spouted when teams came through the Stargate.
Seems another Stargate team was sent to a planet and never returned. When SG1 arrives, they find out from one …
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Man Who Wouldn’t Talk
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Man Who Wouldn’t Talk from season two is highly entertaining. It even brought on chuckles, especially when Charles Bronson is asking Richard Boone for advice on how to be romantic. There’s a great bit concerning Cyrano de Bergerac. One of …
Prison Break Season 3 Episode 3 Call Waiting
In this episode the story continues, and it gets more and more complicated. I don’t really like the new setting, it is just too chaotic and to the pressing. I think I like the jail in the first season, there were some rules to follow, and everything …
Days of Our Lives - Alice Horton’s Demise Week 1 TV Show
The Horton family has been the core of the Days of our Lives soap opera for decades. At the heart of the family are Tom and Alice Horton. Tom was played by MacDonald Carey , who passed away in 1994. His pictures and character name have …
Adam 12 - Log 45: Bright Boy
I really enjoy elements of Log 45: Bright Boy, a third season entry for the Adam-12 crime drama that aired for several seasons on NBC. There’s some nice banter at the beginning between the first crime segment, and that’s just how I like to see it happen.
My favorite …
White Collar: Threads
Well, this second episode of White Collar wasn’t too bad considering I had a few doubts after the pilot episode.
At least, in this case, which involved New York Fashion week, he actually proved why he was, at one point, a criminal mastermind and used his intelligence to help trap …
