The Sopranos is a “compelling” TV Show. I think compelling is the best word. Even though some scenes are controversial or you see the evil side of many of the main characters, for some reason the show compels you to keep watching. HBO has less strict regulations than cable …

Adam-12: Log 76: The Militants is a rather serious episode of this thirty-minute police drama from the mind of Jack Webb. It begins with the shooting of a police officer and a black militant. It becomes a circus and one of those politically hyped stories where no …

Stargate SG-1: Shadowplay is hum drum for me. It bores me to no end. Its focus is a potential Kelownan civil war. The thing is, who cares? The Kelownans are selfish cowards, as evidenced by Jonas Quinn himself, so I’m not sure why Earth should …

M*A*S*H: Taking the Fifth is somewhat of a bore in my opinion. I didn’t really like either of the two main stories that take up the thirty minutes that this show airs. One segment dealt with Corporal Max Klinger (Jamie Farr) paying off a debt to Hawkeye …

A drama called Heros season is just like x-man. Normal people becomes a hero by finding out their ability. Even one guy who draws future turns his eyes into white to use his ability just like x-man’s snow woman. A girl who has healing power like a x-man’s main …

Originally published as a manga in 1987, Hirohiko Araki’s Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure quickly rose to fame as one of the best-selling manga series of all time. Shockingly enough, a proper anime series adaptation for the show wouldn’t arrive until 2012, 25 years after its initial creation. Being adapted so …

Sharon Farrell is the big guest star in Wagon Train: The Pearlie Garnet Story, a ninety-minute, seventh season episode of the series. There’s little to love about Pearlie. She’s a pathetic and sad character, and this is her story, much of which is told in flashback.
The story reveals …

I have never followed any show that is produced by GMA TV channel 7. I obviously am a follower of the other network - their rival named ABS-CBN; however, the time I had nothing else to watch but the show of Jessica Show, I immediately liked it. The show …

Hawaii Five-O: Face of the Dragon is part medical drama and part spy caper. Combined, Hawaii Five-O: Face of the Dragon just doesn’t do a whole lot for me. I never have liked the opening scene. It sets up the drama naturally enough, but it’s just …

Firstly the family dynamic was great. here you have a happy, healthy family who only …

I have always loved cartoons. As a kid, I had all kinds of favorites. Saturday mornings were a joy, and so were weekday mornings before school. As an adult, I still enjoy them. In fact, I’ve purchased a few VHS releases of some of my …

This episode doesn’t have a “previously on” segment. I kind of got used to those recaps and not having it there was pretty jarring.
The group comes across a group of nomads who are oddly reminiscent of hippies. They wander the earth, singing songs, and telling stories. …

My first beef with tonight’s two-hour show is that the first half-hour was a review. I would have liked to have known that in advance. Traditionally, they’ve put review shows as a separate entity. Nevertheless, the real meat of the show was, of course, the dancing.
Melissa …

I came home for lunch today and the Home Improvement episode “Satellite on a Hot Tim’s Roof” was on. And, it is great.
There are two storylines going on in this episode and the writers managed to pull off both without taking away from either of them.
First, Tim gets a new …

Part 2 of Devices and Desires continues the murder mystery that is the center of this P.D. James based novel. As always, it’s Roy Marsden starring as the intelligent and intuitive Inspector Adam Dalgliesh. The neat part about this particular story is that Dalgliesh is actually on …

Love of a Bad Woman is the 28th episode of Have Gun - Will Travel’s third season and it has a fun opening with Paladin playing chess. I really like these scenes of San Francisco life more than I do the gunfighter stories much of the time. …

How on earth did some of the discussion on the Golden Girls manage to sneak by the censors? Maybe it was because the show featured four acclaimed actresses then in their golden years so the innuendo and raunchiness snuck by them or immobilized them completely. All I know is …

Ramays Best Restaurant
Having created a persona that is recognized as much for its fiery temper and his constant use of swear words as his talent for cooking fine food, it makes a nice change to see Gordon Ramsay front a t.v show like this.
Usually seen entering down trodden, under …

Another Ghost Hunters episode and another one where they really don’t find much in terms of evidence of ghosts. The third episode of the series “Lighthouse Inn” was one that wasn’t the most impressive for me.
On one hand, they seemed to at least have some personal experiences both at …

For years now, it seems like it is government-mandated to watch all of the Marvel films, because as much as I try, I can’t seem to keep myself out of the theater! The “Daredevil” series on Netflix, although successful, seems to not be as etched into the mainstream as …

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 …
