Austin Stevens:In Search of the Giant Anaconda

CSI: New York Damned If You Do TV Show
Damned If You Do was the third outing for the seventh season of CSI: New York, and I can’t say that I liked their choice of opening song which was a throwback to Miami Vice. It’s so strongly associated with that show that I can’t believe the music …

Imbestigador by Mike Enriquez
I do really like watching “Imbestigador” hosted by Mike Enriquez and aired via GMA Network every Ssturday night. It is never boring to watch this TV program. Mike Enriquez features exposes of various corruption in government agencies, unlawful activities of some erring citizens of the country, unlawful practices …

Highlander/The Source
This was not the Highlander we all know and love. The Duncan in this movie was dark and brooding and unsure of himself. The movie was choppy-it didn’t have a good flow. There wasn’t much information about the characters and how they all came together. It didn’t …
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 …

Star Wars: The Clone Wars - Episode 1.11: Dooku Captured
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 …
That Girl: Great Guy
I can’t say that I’m a big fan of That Girl: Great Guy. It’s a show that aired towards the end of the second season and featured Ruth Buzzi, who has a recurring role as Margie ‘Pete’ Peterson. Buzzi is a talented comedienne, but this role really …
Stargate SG-1: Beast of Burden
Stargate SG-1: Beast of Burden is one of my favorite season five episodes of this series. It’s just full of good stuff.

Wagon Train: The Sam Pulaski Story
Wagon Train: The Sam Pulaski Story is an okay entry for the western series. It features guest stars Ross Martin, Annette Funicello, Stanley Adams, Jocelyn Brando, and Harry Carey, Jr., among others.
Robert Fuller as Cooper Smith gets the main thrust of the story. He’s romancing Ross Pulaski …
Wagon Train: The Last Circle Up
This episode of Wagon Train, The Last Circle Up, which is the final episode of the seventh season, is actually a bit ironic, considering what happens for the eighth and concluding season for this western series. The story is all about whether or not Chris Hale’s crew would …
Law and Order: Criminal Intent Season 1
Watching Law and Order: Criminal Intent Season One now is a fairly different experience than watching it when the season first aired years ago. I actually remember when the show first started because my parents were big fans of the original Law and Order and I actually watched Special …
Moesha
Moesha is a pretty cool TV show. It’s about a girl named Moesha who is played by the singer Brandy. She is pretty cool and funny. I like this show because Moesha is always faithful and good to her friends. She always teaches us that friends come first in life. …

CSI Season 1 Episode 20 Sounds of Silence
Just as expected of this great show, it was a really fun and interesting episode. Aside from the investigation, there was some social message as well, but I felt like it didn’t really work well. I think it was a just a little bit over the top as the …
Mr. Monk Gets Hypnotized
When it comes to season finales, or at least summer finales, you think the show Monk would leave its best episode for last, in an effort to keep you wanting more.
Mr. Monk Gets Hypnotized is not one of the best episodes I’ve seen.
Really, nothing about this episode is unique …
The Simpsons: Million Dollar Abie
I have only seen the first part of the Simpsons episode Million Dollar Abie so I was glad to be able to watch the entire thing yesterday afternoon. It turned out to be pretty good.
Basically, in this episode, Springfield has a chance to land an NFL team (despite the …
Stargate SG1: There But For The Grace Of God
This was the first of many alternate reality shows that Stargate SG1 would do. It is also one of my favorite episodes from Season One. Maybe it’s because this episode is Daniel-centric or maybe it’s because it was very well written and fun to watch.
Daniel and the …
Reba show
Although Reba ended in 2005, you can still catch reruns on the Country music television station, and you can buy the DVDs at many stores, so this show is still easy to catch.
I used to watch it when I knew it was on. It wasn’t a show that I …

Scooby Doo and the Samurai Sword
Once again, I was stuck watching Scooby Doo movies with my daughter this weekend. But, at least I got to see one I haven’t seen before; Scooby Doo and the samurai sword.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Prophecy Girl
I finally got to see the season 1 finale of Buffy the Vampire Slayer “Prophecy Girl” and have to admit it made up for the numerous crappy episodes of the series in that first season.

Rome - HBO Series
I mentioned before that it feels like I’m out of good TV Shows to watch. Maybe it’s because it’s summer or because all the series I like came to their closing episode (see Lost). This means I’ve been looking for other stuff to watch and what I’m doing is …

Law and Order SVU Season 1 Episode 1- Payback

The Sopranos
I never really watched “The Sopranos” when it was on HBO, but, since A&E has been playing all the syndicated episodes, I’ve really gotten into it. Like the Corleone family in “the Godfather”, Tony Soprano and his various henchmen both repulse and fascinate. James Gandolfini is exceptional as the …
Wonderwall Projector
The Discover wanderwall projector is a OK starting projector. The resolution is not too good. The brightness is not very goo making you need a very dark room to see it. When its a dark seen in the movie it makes any bright parts have a glow around them. …
Christmas with the King Family
PBS is treating us to a wonderful new special this holiday season, Christmas with the King Family. Now the interesting thing to me is that as a child, I really didn’t like the King Family. I didn’t even think they could sing. Truly, I thought, ‘What’s …

Sky Sports TV Channel

Sea Hunt: Sunken Car TV Show
Sea Hunt: Sunken Car begins with Mike Nelson (Lloyd Bridges) doing a survey job where a pipe would be placed later. I like seeing how they link these little opening bits with what ultimately becomes the main focus of the half hour episodes. The survey really has …
Stargate SG1: Crossroads
“Crossroads” is another Jaffa oriented episode of Stargate SG1. As I have said previously in other reviews, I am not a big fan of all the Jaffa storylines. Some yes, but there are others I find very boring. This is especially true when Bra’tac is not …
