Due South: Mountie and Soul
Due South: Mountie and Soul doesn’t begin promisingly for me. I don’t like boxing, and the story begins with Fraser, the Vecchio replacement, and Francesca at a boxing ring. Too much of these stories are being focused on this newcomer, Callum Keith Rennie, as the Vecchio replacement …

In this episode Rose and the Doctor are not travelling in the future as we are used to see them travel but they go in the past. Rose’s dad died when she was still a baby and her mother kept telling her how great guy he was and how …
The Virginian: The Executioners
When The Virginian aired originally, I just wasn’t a fan. It was a ninety minute show, in color, and starred Lee J Cobb, Doug McClure, Gary Clarke, James Drury, and Roberta Shore. Honestly, the shore bored me. I tried watching it, but I wasn’t attracted to …
Diagnosis Murder: You Can Call Me Johnson TV Show
I must admit that I’m not that crazy about the main murder investigation in Diagnosis Murder: You Can Call Me Johnson, but I do love the side story that involves Dr. Mark Sloan (Dick Van Dyke).
The murder is of Jack’s godfather who, as it turns out, is really a …
Legend: Legend on His President’s Secret Service
The opening of this third episode is a hoot. Pratt is on a book tour in the south, a bad mistake since his dime novels are all about Yankees. Just as some unhappy southerners are about to do harm to him and in fact have him hanging …

Thriller: The Weird Tailor TV Show
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 …
Ghost Hunters TV Episode: Inn of the Dead
I don’t know why but I just can’t seem to find an episode of Ghost Hunters I like any more.
Last night’s episode, Inn of the Dead, should have been good. They visited an inn that not only had two suicides, they had two guests go insane too.
Of course, I …

Law & Order SVU
Finally. After almost a full season, Law & Order: SVU seems to be getting back to solving cases and eliminating a lot of the side-stories.
Last night’s episode Choreographed was fantastic. It involved the return of Olivia Benson as Elliott Stabler’s partner and focused on solving a crime, not the …

“Anderson Cooper 360” is a live news broadcast on CNN and CNN International that is billed as a show that takes you beyond the headlines. Due to the skill of the primary anchor and reporter, Anderson Cooper, as well as his entire team of reporters and producers, I …
Bones: Tough Man in the Tender Chicken

Gilligan’s Island - Erika Tiffany Smith to the Rescue
Erika Tiffany Smith to the Rescue is my least favorite Gilligan’s Island episode out of all of them. There was very little attention grabbing scenes and the show ran more like a bad soap opera. Zsa Zsa Gabor guest stars in this show as Erika Tiffany Smith. Zsa Zsa …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Time Bomb TV Show
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Time Bomb is the second episode of the second year that this wonderful Irwin Allen science fiction series was on the air. Following are some observations about this 1965 episode:
–The opening shot in the theme is a bit different in what …
Spongebob: Frankendoodle
Ok, I will admit it, while one of the stupidest Spongebob Squarepants epiosodes I’ve ever seen, the episode “Frankendoodle” is actually quite funny; in fact, it might be one of the funnier episodes I’ve seen in a while.
I’m still a bit confused about why a pencil lost by an …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer TV show
This TV show was very popular while it was on, featuring Sarah Michelle Gellar as Buffy, a girl who moves to a new town after she’s been kicked out of her old school. The reason she was kicked out was that she is The Slayer, and so she was …
Diff’rent Strokes (TV sitcom)
When I was a lot younger, I used to love this sitcom. For some reason I enjoyed watching the three young kids, Kimberly, Willis, and Arnold running around that two-dimensional looking penthouse apartment. The decorations were ritzy. I can’t really believe that they lived …

The 39th show of Sea Hunt’s second year was also the last of the season. It was entitled The Raft. The premise was the deep sea diver Mike Nelson as played by Lloyd Bridges went to a location off the coast of the Channel Islands to find …
Battle 360 History Channel
“Battle 360″ is a TV show displayed on the History Channel every Friday night at 10 Eastern. It is a nearly commercial-free look at the history of the USS Enterprise (a carrier) in the second World War. It is, of course geared towards history-buffs, but I believe that even …

Monk TV show
Monk is a whodunit detective show with a comedic twist and a little light drama all bundled up as an Emmy hit. Tony Shalhoub plays the title character Adrian Monk to perfection.
Adrian Monk is a former San Francisco Police Detective who was decommissioned after his wife was …
Gilligan’s Island - Water, Water Everywhere TV Episode
This episode is a bit boring. There is not a lot of exciting scenes to pick up the pace in this show. So I find myself getting bored and start wandering my attention span in the middle of the show. The pace is uniform and progresses naturally for on …
Columbo: Lovely But Lethal TV Show
The first show of Columbo’s third season on the air was Lovely But Lethal, which featured Vera Miles as Viveca Scott, Martin Sheen as Karl Lessing, Vincent Price as David Lang, and Sian Barbara Allen as Shirley Blaine.

Emerald Point N.A.S.: Episode 14 - The Assignment
Emerald Point N.A.S.: Episode 14 - The Assignment takes a bit of a tragic turn for my favorite, Lt. Simon Adams (Richard Dean Anderson). There’s some fun moments early on, but then something happens that disturbs him greatly, so much so that he is given a ten-day leave.
Back …
Medium: Will the Real Fred Rovick Please Stand Up?
The Medium episode for February 5, 2010 was really entertaining, and I liked it more than many other episodes for a few reasons. Entitled “Will the Real Fred Rovick Please Stand Up?” this gave us two distinct stories and both really held my interest well.
The main story with …
The Defenders: Pilot TV Show
The first phrase that comes to my mind when I think about the pilot episode for The Defenders is ’smart move. When word first came out about this show, the word was that it was going to be a re-do of the popular lawyer series from the 60’s …
The Young Rebels: Stalemate TV Show
Stalemate is another good episode of the 1970 drama, The Young Rebels, which starred a magnificent young cast which included Rick Ely, Louis Gossett Jr., and Phillippe Forquet. Hilary Thompson is also on board, playing Ely’s girlfriend on the show.
I enjoy this show because it’s a theme that, …

Star Trek: Spectre of the Gun TV Show
From 1968, Star Trek: Spectre of the Gun is a show I really do love. It’s a take on the events of the O.K. Corral with Wyatt Earp. Of course, it’s based more on the myth of what happened than the reality, but it’s still legend and …
Ghost Hunters: Fortuna & Topton
I don’t know why but, even though I wasn’t the one driving to Philadelphia, I felt like I wasted a great deal of time watching the Ghost Hunters episode Fortuna & Topton.

Ice Road Truckers: Blood on the Dalton TV Show

There were several points of interest. …
PBS KIDS Channel
TV is a all time favourite for everyone. But watching today’s shows with family is not a good idea. There are lot of shows that are not kid friendly and have a negative impact on kids. Not every channel has kids programmes and there is nothing much for toddlers to …
Bones: The Woman at the Airport
While waiting to watch the new GI Joe movie last night, I ended up flipping through channels and watching re-runs of popular television shows, including the show Bones. I came across an episode I have seen before but not in its entirety. It turned out to be an interesting …
Hung the TV Series
Summer is not my favorite time when in comes to TV shows. The writers seem to be on vacation too, and the shows are not as interesting as those that start during the fall season. Take this series about a divorced father who works as a teacher during the …
21 Jump Street: Best Years Of Your Life Season 2, Episode 20

Laramie: Saddle and Spur TV Show

Summer Heights High Series 1 Episode 1
The humour in Summer Heights High is right up my street but before I actually checked it out, I thought it was just another shallow teen soap opera. This is a great comedy show actually in the style of a documentary, featuring three characters at the Australian school …
