The finale itself wasn’t too bad, the remaining three cadets got to …

That Girl: A Muggy Day in Central Park from season three is pretty funny, and it features Ted Bessell in a dress. Now that was a get up! There is a logical explanation, especially when you remember that this show aired on network television in 1968.
In this …

I’m including the final two parts of Cover Her Face as one entry because it lost me a little in the fifth part. I drifted away from the story more. Perhaps I was just tired or maybe the story lagged, but while it had me early on, …

Fox News Channel is an interesting phenomenon to watch, if anything. Famous for their slogan “Fair and Balanced,” they are anything but. Bias resonates through almost every word iterated by one of the Channel’s many columnists. The half-hour news reports are fairly standard fare, but the …

The weirdest thing about Stargate SG-1: Descent is that I don’t understand why Major Davis (well played recurringly by Colin Cunningham) is on the mission with SG-1 and Jacob. Apparently, he’s got some scientific reason for being on board, but the man is supposed to be the Pentagon …

One of them was the episode Mr. Monk is Underwater; one of the later episodes (when he …

Stargate SG-1: A Matter of Time isn’t one of my favorite episodes of the series, probably because Michael Shanks is only in one scene, the last one. This is because his girlfriend had given birth to his child, and he took some time off. For me, Daniel …

Poisoning is probably the worst way to go. Because you don’t know what it is that killed you. All you know is that you are sick. So this episode really freaked me out. It showed what happens when the media gets a hold of something and doesn’t report it …

For TV viewers who do not like situation comedies and all the reality TV “tripe”, I would recommend watching Charlie Rose at 10:30 on your local PBS station.
This show isn’t for everyone. If you are not well-read and don’t enjoy cerebral conversation, this show is not for you.
However, if …
