As surprising as it may seem, Republican Senator Barry Goldwater appeared multiple times on roasting editions of The Dean Martin Comedy Hour , socking it to different entertainers. On this particular evening, the Arizona senator was on the receiving end of the barbs. Naturally, the political jokes …

The two part finale wraps up as the team tries to stop the Daleks’ nefarious plan. Where the last episode had a lot of epic goings on with little room for character moments, this one is oddly quieter. It’s still heavy, but not in the same sense …

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 59 has Roy Mustang refusing to perform human transmutation and Pride and Wrath forcing him to open the gateway. He is taken to where Ed, Al, Izumi and Hohenheim are and learns a terrible truth.
This episode was very exciting and the twists and turns …

The Jerry Springer show has run its course and needs to be taken off the air for good and the re-runs never need to be seen again. I can’t understand how this show was so popular for so long.
I can’t stand this show because the show is stupid and …

This episode reunites Tom Everett Scott and Billy West, who voiced Booster Gold and Skeets respectively in an episode of “Justice League Unlimited”. They reprise the roles here and it plays to a similar effect.
The characters play off each other the same way and Booster is …

Have you watched Being Human because if you haven’t you really should catch the next series! It’s fabulous.
Being Human is one of the best BBC dramas to be released in a long while. The storylines are compelling and the characters, despite some of their rather off-putting traits, …

In this third episode of Black Gold’s third season on TruTV, Peggy, the owner of the land on which the oil rig is currently operating, confronts the tool pusher about the broken cattle guard seen in episode 2. I don’t think much of this guy. He talks …

While this is one of the few episodes of South Park I can’t play in front of my son, I still think it’s one of the best for it not only has the South Park humor, but tackles the idea of …

Well, that was a somewhat interesting episode of Hogan’s Heroes that was on at lunch today; “One Army at a Time.”
Basically, in this episode, they are trying to blow up a Nazi bridge. But, they are interrupted as they are making their way there and, because he is dressed …

I love the Star Trek’s Favorite Moments featurette which allows us to get a look at some of the Trek performers and what it is that attracted them to this science fiction series. Michael Dorn, Ethan Phillips, and Tim Russ all spoke about how they watched Star Trek …

“The Terminator Decoupling” is the episode of The Big Bang Theory originally airing on CBS on March 9, 2009. This episode was saved by great chemistry (over the telephone) between Sheldon and Penny. The rest of the episode was light on laughs.
Pros: Sheldon was featured in …

A.J. Cook’s swan song is this second episode of the new season, Criminal Minds: JJ. A lot of fans are angry to see this show come to fruition. Cook was fired during the hiatus in a supposed downsizing move. Paget Brewster came close to suffering the …

Rescue Me with Dennis Leary.
Dennis Leary did stand up comedy, I think, as a persona of the pessimistic character that is just an ugly drunk. Doing a series full of negative speaking characters is definitely a viewer’s nightmare.
The Show starts off with …

I love the opening to this episode of Sea Hunt which is called. Mike Nelson, our resident deep see diver, is working on a project that is less stressful than most, and he’s enjoying it. Then all of a sudden, it starts to rain money, and he’s …

This episode brings up a large problem back in the 80’s when 21 Jump Street was very popular - AIDS.
There was very little known about AIDS back in the 1980’s. Parents were afraid to send their kids to school with children who had it. They were afraid …

Sable: Copycat has a basic plot that we’ve seen a hundred times in all kinds of dramas in all genres. There’s a street-wise young girl who can talk fast and make excuse after excuse who naturally latches on to Sable. Actually, it’s Sable’s alter ego of Nicholas …

This is a great episode. In this episode, Spongebob Squarepants is getting to know his new friend Sandy, who is a squirrel who lives in a treedome under the sea. What he doesn’t realize is that when he arrives at the treedome the water is drained as …

Gene Roddenberry’s love, Majel Barrett, was originally supposed to play Number One, the second in command of the Enterprise. That’s how it was in the original pilot. When that didn’t go over with network executives, she became a blonde and was reduced to a love-starved nurse named …

This hour of The Good Wife, titled VIP Treatment, was interesting because it was self contained in many ways, which honestly surprised me. There was actually not all that much of Julianna Margulies in my opinion. I felt like the concentration of the camera was more on …

It was a Woman of the Year (and there weren’t many of those during the years of the roast) for The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast, and that woman was Joan Collins. For one of the few times in the history of the roasts, the dais was predominantly female, …

In March 1960, Sea Hunt was in the early part of its third year on television. The episode shown on this night was the ninth one and was called Jade Cavern. It begins with expert diver Mike Nelson on his boat working on an assignment when he …

This episode had promise, but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to it. It had all the makings of a solid stand alone, isolating the agents, giving them a ticking clock against an unnatural enemy, and even allowing for some character conflict, but the execution wasn’t as good as …

One of the things I like about That Girl is that they celebrate a lot of the holidays, or at least acknowledge them. Some shows may do Christmas, but that’s about it, so this is quite nice. The occasion here is New Year’s Eve, and to welcome …

Our pets are very important members of our households, so, when they’re in peril, it affects us tremendously.
“Emergency Vets” is a reality show on Animal Planet that focuses on the happenings at Alameda East, a veterinary hospital located in Denver. If only the doctors who treated people were …

Season three comes to a tragic close with M*A*S*H: Abyssinia, Henry. I remember this episode so well, and the plot has long been documented by the producers as to why the story evolved as it did. What this show should have been entitled is, “McLean, What On …

The eleventh episode in the series, “Dooku Captured”, takes a bit of a more lighthearted and comedic approach to it unlike the previous two episodes (”Cloak of Darkness” and “Lair of Grevious”) but does manage to remain interesting at the same time. On board a Separatist freighter, Anakin Skywalker …

Ghost movie, or horror movie, you may call this tv series. It tells a story about a woman who is able to see and communicate with the dead! Spooky huh? Well, this is an interesting series to watch for people who loves that kind of stuff, …

“Divided We Fall” is the 25th episode of Justice League Unlimited, season one, and for all intents and purposes, it is the season finale even though one more episode remains. It is a great episode and brings the year to a satisfying conclusion.
Lex Luthor and Brainiac have merged, …

Wow, I have to tell you, models can be really, really catty sometimes over some extremely stupid things.
This week’s elimination saw one of the models accuse another one of cheating because she saw her use sticky tape on her outfit; which is apparently against the rules because it’s considered …

The first time I saw American Dad going on I honestly thought it was the show Family Guy, since the drawings and themes were a bit similar. Therefore, I wasn’t surprised when I found out that this show was also co-created by Seth MacFarlane. I’m not American, neither do …

Father Mulcahy (William Christopher) writes a letter to his sister, the sister, in M*A*S*H: Dear Sis. This is actually the third straight episode to give a huge focus on Mulcahy. This character began as a minor presence in season one and has slowly built up to being …

Last night’s final Project Runway challenge was somewhat entertaining. The designers were taken to an art museum and told to create an outfit based on something they were inspired by. This ended up being everything from an old bed to moss on a fountain outside.
I have to tell you …

From October 1973, Star Trek: The Magicks of Megas-Tu continues the animated adventures of the USS Enterprise, and this time, Captain Kirk and the crew find themselves being swept away to the magical world of Megas-Tu. It’s a place of magicians and wizards apparently, only the man named …

I watched a re-run of the Simpsons last night entitled “Pranksta Rap.” It was an OK episode but I have to admit, I have seen much, much better from this series.
Basically, Bart sneaks out to go to a rap concert. But, he’s afraid of his punishment so he ends …

I collected Gossip Girl novels in my high school years, so I was very intrigued and excited years later when I found out it was being turned into a TV series. A few episodes into the show and I realized it wasn’t going to have exactly the same storyline …

This TV show just rocks my world. I don’t really like watching people get embarrassed on TV, even though I know it’s not happening to them in real life. But this show just makes me want to watch until Betty gets her revenge by being smart. This show actually …

I can’t say that this was one of the best Law and Order SVU Episodes I had watched, but I still liked it and learned quite a bit from it like I have learned from a lot of the other episodes. I am not sure if the episode “Slaves” …

For the six seasons that this show was on the air, I actually enjoyed most of it. In watching the reruns, I can actually see how very corny this program was (and still is.) First of all, Steve Harvey’s brand of comedy was pretty funny in the …

In 2010, the History Channel presented Jaws: The Inside Story, which is a great look at the making of Jaws, the 1975 movie hit. There are a wealth of new interviews and ones from the past that work together to present a really unique view of this film …

Well now, the episode of House entitled “Lucky 13″ certainly was intended to bring in ratings. After all, who can object to an episode that features Thirteen and one of her female lovers. I have to say it got my attention.
The case itself was actually quite dull. Another patient, …

Only 16 more episodes remain of the series Monk. And, after last night’s episode “Mr. Monk Fights City Hall” I’m really finding myself not caring too much anymore. And, that’s kind of sad considering this was my favorite show at one point.
The episode, which featured Monk trying to save …

The CW series Supernatural will have you sitting on the edge of your seat with the combination of mystery and the evil spirits who are trying to stop the Winchester Brothers from finding their father. It may sound far fetched, but the stories are well written and when …

A Centauri colony is attacked and it is up to the crew of Babylon 5 to figure out who is responsible and avoiding another war.
This episode acted as a nice follow up to the pilot. While the first episode had a fairly heavy plot, this one did …

One of the most interesting new television shows that I’ve discovered recently is one called Brain Games that comes from time to time on the cable television channel National Geographic. I think that the reason why I like it so much and the reason it stands out is because …

This episode picks up where the last one left off, with the Doctor attempting to make contact with the Silurians so that a treaty can be negotiated. Suffice it to say, it does not go well. The Silurians aren’t the most reasonable species out there, at least at …
