Dead-Eye Dick was a fairly entertaining fifth season episode of The Virginan, and I honestly believe that one of the reasons I liked it as much as I did was that it didn’t really involve any of the new owners, the Graingers. Charles Bickford had just one scene, …

I’m a huge Elisha Dushku fan, so it was great to see her character Faith finally make an appearance in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode “Faith, Hope & Trick.”
This one is an OK episode because I absolutely love the villain in this one and see potential in the …

Curb Your Enthusiasm’s seventh season continues with this impressive episode as Larry David tries to commence work on a Seinfeld reunion in an effort to win back wife Cheryl.
It’s an entertaining episode; there’s a lot going on and several regulars and recurring characters appear. All of the Seinfeld cast …

I waited a long time for the new season of NCIS Los Angeles. The last season was intentionally cut in mid story. Unexpectedly and mysteriously, Hetty resigns from her post and goes to Romania to close some unfinished business. Of course, what she did is so absurd that …

“Spartacus: Gods of the Arena” is the second season of the very popular television series that was airing on Starz. While the season has finished now, I did not have many complaints about it when it was still going on, except for the fact maybe that I thought it …

The season 3 premier of The Next Iron Chef was called Ingenuity because it focused on creativity in the kitchen. Both the small challenge at the beginning, called the Secret Ingredient Challenge, and the lengthier Elimination Challenge that takes up the bulk of the episode dealt with the …

Sex: Revolution was a five part series airing on VH-1 that detailed the history of the sexual revolution in the United States starting in the 1950’s. I’m not exactly sure when the series first aired because I never heard of it before, but when they showed all five episodes …

The Beverly Hillbillies.
An all time classic, The Beverly Hillbillies was first made around the 1950-1960’s.
There are 6 main characters, Granny, Uncle Jed, Jethro and Ellie Mae, and Mrs Drysdale their banker and neighbor. Miss Jane Hathaway is his secretary.
Granny is a real character. She is always cooking up batches of …

When Sam bypasses a few of the protocols while dialing the stargate, they fall out of the stargate and inadvertently do damage to the planet of K’tau, which happens to be a protected planet under the Asgards.
The K’tau people believe in Freyr, a “god” who is actually an Asgard. …

Has there ever been a better show than “The Simpsons”? I think not, at least in my generation. I think back to when I was just growing up and the show first aired. It was an instant hit and it has not stopped providing laughs. …

The Andy Griffith Show: The Darling Baby aired in December 1964 and continued the saga of the popular Darling family. Once again, I have to say that I am not a huge fan of this story arc, but it is quite popular with fans of this highly successful …

Junior Apprentice Episode 4 had Lord Alan Sugar sending his apprentice hopefuls on a mission to find and sell art. I’ve seen this type of challenge before, and it’s always an interesting one. Basically, the teams visit several artists and then pick two they want to have …

CSI: Crime Scene Investigation: Shock Waves picks up where last season ended, that being the shooting of Laurence Fishburne’s Dr. Raymond Langston. At the start, he’s being transported to the hospital where initially he’s fighting for his life. That really doesn’t last too long. He ends …

“The Dick Van Dyke Show” episode entitled “No Rice at My Wedding” is primarily a flashback episode that takes viewers back to a time before Rob and Laura were married but after they started going together as a couple. This is one of the very few episodes of this …

CSI Season Seven is one of the good seasons, but I didn’t get to see it until I bought the DVD set. Usually I don’t watch CSI because it’s on the same time as one of my favorite shows. I like CSI, but I like the other show better. …

OK, I was wrong. When the show Models of the Runway first came out, I assumed, because the judging was on the designers and not them, there wouldn’t be as much cattiness in this competition. Turns out, there was.
I do like the whole behind the scenes concept of this …

I really enjoyed the first season of Project Runway, and have been pretty happy lately because one of the channels that I get has been rerunning Project Runway’s second season from beginning to end.
I really like this season’s contestants. I especially think Santino is funny and interesting. There …

This two parter introduced us to many new characters at SG1 while losing Richard Dean Anderson as General O’Neill. Even though he made a cameo during these episodes, it was not the same as having him around full time.
Viewers got to meet Lt. Colonel Cameron Mitchell played by …

In this episode of “Red Dwarf” Cryton is upset about having a new female crewmate convincing himself that Lister is going to ignore him and even send him away if he doesn’t do something so he sets the power and backup power systems to go down.
The only way to …

Well, I guess that explains the commandos running around Sunnydale. Apparently there’s some sort of government run group known as the Initiative and they are interested in capturing and experimenting on vampires; including Spike (who was captured the episode before).
I couldn’t figure out a whole lot about this group …

Mr. Krabs has told Squidward and Spongebob that they need to create home made gifts for each other on Valentine’s Day so that they start getting along better. Well, Spongebob decides to have a lot of fun with this project and makes Squidward a sweater for Valentine’s Day that …

I enjoy watching Project Runway US, especially when I hear the designers bitch about each other. I use to think they were vicious, until I watched an episode of Project Runway Australia. I like the setting of this Australian version; they stitch and bitch in Melbourne, Australia, a beautiful …

Claymore is an anime that came out recently (about some months ago) and is still ongoing. I watched about 2 episodes and it quickly became one of my favourites. It takes place in a world where humans and demons (which they term ‘Yoma’) coexist, as well as ‘Claymore’s; half …

Mad Hungry with Lucinda Scala Quinn: Hot Sauce was another good outing, even though it wasn’t totally my style. The thing is that I really like watching Lucinda. She appears just like any common, everyday woman. Her kitchen set isn’t pretentious. Yes, it has all …

I have watched this show a couple of times on lifetime movie network. It is somewhat interesting and entertaining to watch. Some episodes are a lot better than others. I think it gives people a learning experience who do the wife swap. My favorite part of the show is …

So You Think You Can Dance, a “reality tv show” created by the minds behind American Idol and shown on Fox, is by far the most entertaining show in the new millennium. Aside from the not-so-quality entertainment acts sometimes brought in for elimination night, this show is family friendly …

You know, I normally like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but some episodes, like “Beer Bad” are just so stupid, you almost hate to admit you watch the show.
I get the whole point of the episode. The writers want to show the dangers of under aged drinking in a form …

True Blood is the new HBO hit series based on the acclaimed fantasy vampire series by Charlaine Harris. I first saw the show after a co-worker prompted me to watch it, even though I had never read the books (there were eight books out at the time the show …

Last night, I was flipping through channels on TV and came across a Star Trek the Next Generation episode that is among my favorites from the series (at least of the ones I have actually watched); Hollow Pursuits.
I like this episode for a couple of reasons. First, it has …

History and genealogy have been interests of mine for years. I also have curiosity about celebrities. So, I was happy when NBC did its series “Who Do You Think You Are?” It was seven episodes of celebrities researching their family history. I also saw some …

Sa Re Ga Ma Pa is one of my favorite programs in Zee Tv. The main motto of the program is to bring out the talents in youth. It is basically a music competition. The panel selects few talented youths to contest on the stage among the lacs of …

Centennial: The Winds of Death is really an intense and emotional episode of this very long mini-series based on the novel by James Michener. It’s one that I think a lot of people can even identify with today. It’s almost a century old take on today’s home …

After Aang’s latest trip into the Avatar state, he becomes worried about the lack of control and decides to abandon all emotion. It starts off rather subtle, but becomes more obvious as the episode progresses, until he flat out explains the reasons for his detachment.
Katara is naturally …

This episode had some potential, but inevitably fell flat for me. It was interesting to see the monster of the week get killed off in the stinger, and have its death be the subject of investigation. It seemed like a nice inversion, but at about the halfway …

I was looking forward to the season premiere of Monk this time around because I know it is the final season and I was excited about where they might take the show.
Unfortunately, I was a bit disappointed in this episode.
It starts out with Monk and Natalie standing in line …

“The Making of a Councilman” is an episode from “The Dick Van Dyke Show”. It continues and concludes the story started in the previous episode, “I Do Not Choose to Run”. In the previous episode, much of the story focused on Rob’s decision whether or not to run for …

While Season 8 left us Family Guy fans with some great episodes, there were a few that left something to be desired, so I was really looking forward to the first episode of Season 9. I was waiting to be Wowed. …

Whoopi Goldberg developed and starred in the NBC situation comedy series, Whoopi, that aired during the 2003-2004 season. She plays a former singer named Mavis Rae who now runs a boutique hotel and is the setting for the series. Probably 80 percent of the scenes in the …

Ice Road Truckers: Convoy to Hell was a bit on the calm side, which is unusual for this reality series which airs weekly on the History Channel. Usually, the show has plenty of spice, but for whatever reason, the action seemed a bit tame. Then again, sometimes …

M*A*S*H: None Like It Hot deals with the latest heat wave to hit the 4077th as the Korean War rages on. It seems odd that this show precedes one that talks about a wind storm. Korea must have a lot of quick changing weather.
The thrust of None …

In M*A*S*H: Friends and Enemies, Colonel Sherman Potter (Harry Morgan) is reunited with his best friend, Colonel Woody Cooke, played by John McLiam. While Potter is happy to see him, he’s not so happy when Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda) gives him an unfavorable report about Cooke. In …

This is the best TV my family has ever had! All of my friends are jealous! The 1080p picture is absolutely amazing. It also automatically adjusts the resolution to whatever signal is being showed on the screen. So our 480p cable looks good too. Then it switches to 1080p …

I ended up coming home yesterday to my daughter watching Dora the Explorer on TV (thank you Direct TV for all those kids’ channels). As I sat down relaxing, I ended up watching one episode with her “Rapido Tico.”
This episode was basically dedicated to their friend Tico the squirrel, …

In M*A*S*H: Mad Dogs and Servicemen, we meet Rosie for the first time. She gets a bigger part as the show continues. She’s been mentioned a time or two for having a place just outside the camp. This, though, is the first time that we see …

Watching House with his non-existent bedside manner and amazing diagnostic skills often makes me wish he was my doctor. There are people to make up for his lack of bedside manner. When I go to the doctor in reality they may or may not have a bedside manner and …

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex: 2nd Gig Episode 17 has Major Kusanagi in Taiwan investigating Kuze’s identity. She rescues a boy named Chai from Yakuza thugs and he tries to see if she can get him a fully prosthetic body.
This was one of the more interesting …

The Twilight Zone: The Long Morrow is one of the decent season five episodes. In fact, I find it hard to watch, not because of the quality but because I feel so darn bad for the two main characters. It’s a real heartbreaker, one of those fate …
