Harper’s Island Season 1 Episode 10
I watched with my boyfriend Harper’s Island Season 1 Episode 10 and even he went screaming when something happened to the Sheriff. Not going to say exactly what, but it was a sad episode for Abby. Very sad, indeed.
I really have come to hate the killer …
After the Catch with Ben Bailey
I look forward to the “After the Catch” rewind of the season for Discovery’s “Deadliest Catch”. However, this year, I was greeted with a not unpleasant, yet none too pleasing surprise. Mike Rowe was not the host. Like many others, I have become comforted by Mike’s voice. My little …
Due South: Chinatown
I’m not sure why just about every drama on television thinks they have to do some covert Chinatown storyline. It’s always about their version of the Mob Why can’t there be a story about Chinatown that is about the culture or, better yet, just the average crime …
Due South: Pizzas and Promises
I have to keep reminding myself that Diefenbaker the wolf is a regular and isn’t going to have a sad ending, but I have to admit it’s hard. I’m just a huge animal lover and can’t stand seeing anything bad or sad happen. Due South: Pizzas and Promises …
Heroes - TV Series
Heroes is a great TV series, and is especially unique because of its excellent plot, with all of its surprises and twists which always seem to surprise and satisfy you, and leave you hanging and waiting for the next episode.
Heroes is one of those amazing plot dependent TV Series …
Harper’s Island Episode 8
There seems to be more deaths coming in this TV series and it’s getting more focused. My boyfriend is so at it and I must say that he has somehow made me curious about this TV show definitely. Harper’s Island Episode 8 sees smells of more deaths coming …
Desperate Housewives Season 5 Episode 17
I think Desperate Housewives Season 5 Episode 17 is an important development because this is the season whereby Lynette gets a job, and you will see why Gabby is acting like she’s not jealous but in actual fact she is so worried about her husband working with his own ex-girlfriend. …
Desperate Housewives Season 5 Episode 16
Desperate Housewives Season 5 Episode 16 is a good episode, not to be missed. I watched it with a very curious interest and there are lots of character developments in this episode. I love the dinner scene whereby Orson and Bree and Tom and Lynette have dinner together …
Harper’s Island Episode 9
Harper’s Island Episode 9 is more exciting than the previous one. This one is more dark and mysterious for me. The fact that the killer is lurking out there and anytime is trying to kill and get more victims make this a more exciting watch than the previous …
Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 7
I watched Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 7 just before I left to take the boy scouts camping for our usual week of summer camp. I really enjoy watching this series so much and I am excited that I can finally watch all of the episodes in order …
Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 10
Tonight I was searching for a show to watch when I decided to watch the latest episode of Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 10. It was titled the Warlord due the fact that it was about a warlord that takes over Kes’s body. It was a twisted episode …
Dead Like Me: The Bicycle Thief
This is the episode that I was worried about with J.D. the dog. I just don’t like to spend my time worrying about innocent animals, and that’s what I do for most of Dead Like Me: The Bicycle Thief. J.D. gets out, and the Lass family goes …
Dead Like Me: Business Unfinished
What we learn in Dead Like Me: Business Unfinished is that obnoxious Daisy is a scammer. I’ve never liked this character and her behavior here shows one of the reasons why. She’s just an empty character. In this episode, she’s eager to get her hands on …
Dead Like Me: Sunday Mornings
Dead Like Me: Sunday Mornings showed how JD the golden retriever was adjusting to life with the Lass family. It was their first semi-normal moment since the series began. I’m still worried about the dog, and it’s distracting me from the rest of the show.
A.J. Cook guest …
Dead Like Me: A Cook
I just hate stories that have animals in them because I worry about what will happen to the animal. It’s all fiction, I realize, but in the ‘it’s just TV’ world, I can deal with anything that happens to a human being because it’s by choice, but I …
Dead Like Me: Reaper Madness
Dead Like Me: Reaper Madness was the first episode of this series that I just sort of watched and enjoyed calmly. One of the reasons is that I do love happy endings. I like positiveness. I’m just not into doom and gloom and offbeat stuff that …
Dead Like Me: My Room
In ways, I was disappointed in Dead Like Me: My Room because the advancement of the mother and daughter storyline that had begun two episodes back more or less went down the tubes here. I just didn’t like the downward spiral that was continuing here between Joy and …
Dead Like Me: Reaping Havoc
Dead Like Me: Reaping Havoc was actually an interesting episode from the first season of this science fiction series which aired on Showtime. The main thrust of the story surrounds George’s decision that maybe it’s time to make some friends, a concept that is foreign to her as …
Dead Like Me: Reapercussions
Dead Like Me: Reapercussions has George, otherwise known as Georgia Lass, still questioning if she can get around the system and not be a grim reaper. In the process, she learns more about her fellow grim reaper co-worker, Roxy (Jasmine Guy). She gains insight that helps her …
Dead Like Me: Curious George
“At the end of the day, all you have are experiences.”
This quote is from the end of Dead Like Me: Curious George, and it’s the end of this show that is the first time I thought I might end up having some like for the main character of Georgia …
Dead Like Me: Dead Girl Walking
Dead Like Me: Dead Girl Walking is the second episode of this rather offbeat drama from the Showtime Channel. It’s all about Georgia ‘George’ Lass, who was killed and is now undead and a grim reaper.
This basically furthers the storyline. George wonders what might happen if she …
The Jetsons
The Jetsons was an animated television series that I used to watch when I was little. It used to come sometimes in the evenings before I had access to cable television on a local television channel. I can rememebr having some amount of interest in it because it was …
Professor Iris
One of my very favourite children’s shows when I was still just a small child was the show “Professor Iris”. It used to come on a local television channel in the early afternoons right after I would come home from school so I think I might have been in …
Bookmice
“Bookmice” is the name of a children’s television show which I would watch when I was a small child. I would watch it on a local television channel early in the afternoon and think that it used to come right after the other children’s television show “Professor Iris”. I …
Zoobilee Zoo
Even though I was born in the late nineteen eighties, the television show Zoobilee Zoo would still air on a local television channel when I was little in the early nineties. Thus, I would watch it when I was still in kindergarten or possibly when I was a little …
Emperor’s New School: Room for Improvement
One of the ongoing jokes in the first season of the Emperor’s New School is how he had to share the attic with Pacha’s kids while being forced to live as a peasant. So, the episode, Room for Improvement, is quick to get rid of that joke by simply …
Emperor’s New School: The Emperor’s New Tuber
My daughter made me sit down and watch another episode of The Emperor’s New School with her at lunch today. But, I didn’t mind because it was actually a bit funny.
The Emperor’s New Tuber was a cute episode because it shows the pressures Malina is under to win all …
Fairly Odd Parents: Power Mad
Well, at least the second episode in the Fairly Oddparents series isn’t too bad. This one, entitled “Power Mad” lets us meet Timmy’s best friends, Chester and AJ in a way that is kind of interesting.
Since he has fairies who can grant him just about everything, Timmy keeps wishing …
Emperor’s New School: Cool Summer
Well, another episode of Emperor’s New School and I can see why the show lasted only two seasons on Disney.
The episode “Cool Summer” had a few funny moments but, once again, was kind of predictable.
Kuzco is on vacation on the beach with Pacha and his family and is embarrassed …
The Emperor’s New School: Show me the Monkey
As I think I mentioned before, I was afraid the new character Ramon would end up creating some stupid story lines that would make the show Emperor’s New School less entertaining than it was before. And, unfortunately, the episode “Show me the Monkey” was one of those episodes that …
Emperor’s New School: Prisoner of Kuzcoban
OK, if you watch any of the Harry Potter movies or read the books, you’ll realize the Emperor’s New School episode “Prisoner of Kuzcoban” is based loosely on one of the series.
But, I think I liked this episode better than the Harry Potter movie.
This is a funny one because …
Emperor’s New School: Demon Llama
I got home from work last night and the first thing my daughter wanted me to do was sit down with her and watch an episode of Emperor’s New School she had seen earlier that day; “Demon Llama.” And, I have to say it was definitely a very funny …
Emperor’s New School: Ramon’s a Crowd
One way to tell a series is starting to turn the corner a bit and is moving toward the final episodes is with the addition of new characters to the main cast. The show Emperor’s New School did this in its second and final season with the addition of …
Dead Like Me: Pilot
Dead Like Me is a very different series. It aired for two seasons on Showtime, so it’s definitely adult in nature. This is why it won’t be as well liked by me as it might be otherwise. In the pilot, which is the subject of this …
The Fugitive: Ballad for a Ghost
Richard Kimball comes face to face with a woman who resembles his late wife in The Fugitive: Ballad for a Ghost. It’s a haunting tale and one that makes you feel a little melancholy. I always liked that he remembered so much of the good. Kimball …
Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 9
Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 9 is a continuation of Futures End this being part two. I thought it was pretty cool when Commander Chakotay and Torres attempt to grab Starling out of his own car with a transporter from a shuttle. But it couldn’t be that simple …
Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 8
Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 8 is one of the most fascinating episodes I have ever seen out of all the episodes so far. It is titled the futures end part one and I cannot wait to watch part two tomorrow after seeing how the first part leaves …
The Fugitive: Detour on a Road Going Nowhere
In The Fugitive: Detour on a Road Going Nowhere, convicted wife-murderer Richard Kimball is working at a country lodge when the finger gets pointed at him for a theft. This brings the police lurking, so Kimball hightails it away, taking the bus that travels to the remote location.
This …
The Fugitive: The Iron Maiden
The first thing I noticed when I watched The Fugitive: The Iron Maiden again was that it guest starred Richard Anderson. Anderson was one of TV’s most used actors from the 60’s to the 80’s. He was on absolutely everything at one point at another, and like …
The Fugitive: Devil’s Carnival
The second season of The Fugitive continued with this episode called Devil’s Carnival. There was a pretty decent cast making up this particular show of the series.
Philip Abbott, best known for being the head agent in The F.B.I., is a local sheriff who arrests a public nuisance and …
Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 6
Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 6 is called Remember. It is rightly so in that Torres begins have odd dreams that are more vivid than any she has ever experienced in her life before, shortly after taking on some passengers from another race. Through a joint effort Janeway …
Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 5
Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 5 is called false profits. It is one of the best episodes I have seen yet. My favorite characters are the Ferengi which have proclaimed to be false profits in a small society in the delta quadrant. The members of Voyager stumble across …
The Fugitive: Cry Uncle
The Fugitive: Cry Uncle was an interesting entry in this hit dramatic TV series. Kimball ends up having to placate a troubled teenager who helps him to hide from the police. The police aren’t actually looking for him, but are on the track of some robbers. …
The Fugitive: The Cage
The Fugitive: The Cage is not a big favorite of mine. Richard Kimball is in a tiny fish town working when there’s a case of the plague. Risking the wrath of his employer and facing re-capture, he can’t walk away from what he knows to be deadly, …
San Francisco International
San Francisco International was the pilot for a TV series which did sale. While a lot of folks have criticized this made-for-TV film, I don’t really have a problem with it, mainly because I accept it for what it is — a pilot done as a movie. …
I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here — Week 2
I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here is airing on NBC four nights a week. I’ve watched about two-thirds of the shows, simply because there really isn’t much on opposite it. In my first review from the first night of this series, I reported that …
Wagon Train: Chuck Wooster, Wagonmaster
Wagon Train: Chuck Wooster, Wagonmaster was a bit of a mystery show, and it was somewhat intriguing. One by one, people began to disappear from the wagon train, including the scout, Flint McCullough, and the wagonmaster, Seth Adams. Eventually, it was up to the cook, Charlie Wooster, …
The Fugitive: Escape into Black
I love this episode of The Fugitive called Escape into Black. Kimball is injured going after the one-armed man and wakes up without his memory. Ivan Dixon is his by-the-book doctor and Betty Garrett plays his assistant. Garrett becomes intrigued by the patient. She actually …
The Fugitive: Dark Corner
Tuesday Weld is the main reason for watching this show. The Fugitive: Dark Corner is all about the Weld’s character of Mattie Braydon, a blonde sex-kitten type of gal who is spoiled and conniving. Oddly, she’s blind in this story, which makes her come off as sweet …
The Fugitive: Tug of War
The Fugitive: Tug of War from season two is an interesting show that pits two law enforcement types against each other. Both want to bring Kimball in, and it’s quite the guessing game as to who will be the victor as the show progresses.
Don Gordon guest stars as …
