The Celebrity Apprentice
Now what I liked about the Celebrity Apprentice was that we knew almost everyone who was competing. There were a few contestants I wasn’t familiar with but the presence of the other celebrities made up for it.
I think the difference between this and the regular Apprentice is that …
Thriller: A Third for Pinochle TV Show
When Thriller: A Third for Pinochle began, I had visions of this show being a copy of Arsenic and Old Lace, but it wasn’t. Certainly, it had some of that attitude and feel because of the two elderly sisters featured in the hour long drama, but there’s really …
Star Trek: Bread and Circuses TV Show
Here we go again. You know, I love this series, but they did have the tendency to get very repetitive in their choices. In the case of Star Trek: Bread and Circuses, the Enterprise is tracking down yet another missing spaceship and, yes, the missing captain is …
The Simpsons TV Episode: The Cartridge Family
Last night, I finally got to get my Simpsons fix by watching a re-run on network TV. And, I was glad to see it was an episode I have seen in the past and loved; The Cartridge Family.
The episode starts out making fun of soccer (and how Americans think …
Titanic: The Mission Part 4 TV Show
This review is for the fourth installment out of five called Titanic: The Mission. The documentary production was made by the British and had the unique stance of honoring the engineers who built the Titanic versus simply doing a tribute to the disaster itself.
The biggest focus of the …
I Dream of Jeannie: The Complete Series
When I watched I Dream of Jeannie: The Complete Series years back on my local TV, I wouldn’t miss it for the world. I would watch this back to back with another TV sitcom and my mom was the one that introduced me to this series. It’s a …
Stargate SG-1: The First Ones
Excellency returns to SG-1 in season four. In the midst of ogling and soap operaesque episodes, Stargate SG-1: The First Ones is a delight. It’s angst, action, drama, and it has heart. It’s about friendship and teammates. It’s a lost teammate, and SG-1’s absolute determination to …
Charmed TV Show
How do real witches live in the real world? Charmed is a television show with three sisters who are all sisters and are all witches. the sisters do everything that normal girls in their twenties do, go out, hang out with friends, have boyfriends. The catch is that these …
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 …
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 …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Hey Boy’s Revenge
I love the first scene of Have Gun - Will Travel: Hey Boy’s Revenge. Paladin (Richard Boone) returns to the Hotel Carlton in San Francisco and discovers some changes have taken place. Among them is a new desk clerk, played perfectly by Olan Soule. It’s quite a …
Family Guy the TV show
The Family guy is one of the funniest cartoons out there and probably ever will be and the show is set in a town in Rhode Island and the humor of this show is horrible but in a good and very funny way. I like the characters Peter, Stewie …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Terror TV Show
Episode 10 of season four, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Terror , guest starred Damian O’Flynn, albeit briefly, as Dr. Thompson, who warns Admiral Nelson (Richard Basehart) that invaders are taking over the earth and he has only 8 hours to stop it. This happens on …

Stargate SG-1: Sight Unseen
What I like about Stargate SG-1: Sight Unseen is Jack out and about in Colorado Springs. Okay, it’s Vancouver, but he’s out there in his truck, driving around, getting gas, and shooting at things that aren’t really there. Best part of the show.
Second best part of Stargate …
Fantasia For Real
I liked Fantasia when she was on American Idol. I was really rooting for her and hoped that she would make it really far. When she won, I thought that things would look up for her. And I was right. But then I realized …
A Man Called Hawk: Beautiful Are the Stars
The highlight of A Man Called Hawk: Beautiful Are the Stars is Karen Malina White, who guest stars as a young woman named Lisa. White barely looks 18, let alone the 21 she is playing here. However, she has a lot of spirit by her presence, and …
Adam-12: Log 141
In the second episode of Adam-12, we see quickly that our heroes, Pete Malloy and Jim Reed, have bonded. We also get the first mention of the ‘Pete should get married’ moments. While marriage was mentioned in the first episode, this is the beginning of what would …
The Fall Guy: The Snow Job TV Show
From March 1982, The Fall Guy: The Snow Job has Colt Seavers (Lee Majors) and company in Aspen for a combination work and leisure trip. The opening teaser in the Colorado resort town has some very nice night scenes of skiers lighting up the slope. I really loved …
Conspiracy Theory with Jesse Ventura
When I saw there was a show called Conspiracy Theory and it starred former wrestler/governor Jesse Ventura; I was intrigued. Unfortunately, it came on at the same time as one of my favorite shows so I didn’t get to see it when it first aired.
I finally got a chance …
The Twilight Zone: A Penny for Your Thoughts TV Show
From season two of The Twilight Zone, A Penny for Your Thoughts is one I always love to see. It’s a wonderful story, full of surprise, and it’s well acted by performers who are fun to watch. The basic setup is that on his way to work, …
Numb3rs TV show
I really enjoy this show - I like the idea of using statistics and other forms of math to solve major crimes, and actually have a friend of mine who works in crime profiling, which I think is pretty cool.
The relationship between the characters is that Don Epps, an …
The X-Files Home Episode
I thought this episode of the popular 90s television show “The X-Files” had one of the most fascinating introductions to an X-Files episode I had ever seen. In fact, it seemed familiar to me when I watched it again recently. I think I might have watched that particular …
Art Attack
I am a workingwomen and I get very less time to watch the TV at home. But still I have some favourite programmes of mine. Such as the cartoon shows and some movies, I also love to watch some serials, which are telecasted especially on weekends. …
Sea Hunt: Marvelous Treasure Machine TV Show
The Marvelous Treasure Machine is an episode of Sea Hunt that has also been referred to as Continental Rift. Unfortunately, shows don’t always show their name titles when they air, and Sea Hunt is one of those. Therefore, I can’t say for sure which episode title is …
Voyagers!: Created Equal
Voyagers!: Created Equal takes viewers back to the age of Spartacus, who is enslaved and forced to fight as a gladiator in the arena. This allows the hunky series star, Jon-Erik Hexum, to show off his physique in the arena as well. As an actor, Hexum still …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Initiative
Well, I guess that explains the commandos running around Sunnydale. Apparently there’s some sort of government run group known as the Initiative and they are interested in capturing and experimenting on vampires; including Spike (who was captured the episode before).
I couldn’t figure out a whole lot about this group …
Psych (tv series)
I started watching the television series “Psych” as soon as it premiered on the cable television channel USA. I had seen the trailers for it, and I thought that the plot made it seem like it would be very comical. When I started watching it, I found out that …
Gossip Girls TV Show
Oh wow. I adore Gossip Girls. I don’t understand though, how teenagers get to drink ALL THE TIME and never get carded. That’s the only thing. However, the production of the series is quality, I love the actors, and can’t wait to see what they do with season 3. …

The Ray Bradbury Theater: Punishment Without Crime TV Show
Okay, The Ray Bradbury Theater: Punishment Without Crime is another one of those weird stories that I need to watch three or four times to really get it, but I don’t want to. Once was plenty.
Ray Bradbury is certainly a talented and gifted science fiction author, but he’s …
Mr.Bean
Mr.Bean is one of my favorite comedy shows. Bean is very impressive with his performance and his creativity is exceptional. Each episode has two to three short plots of around 5- 10 minutes each and theyentertain you thoroughly . His comic timing is perfect, and his face expressions are …
House TV Episode: Family Practice
Synopsis: Cuddy’s mom falls ill and Cuddy insists that House figure out what is killing her even though her mom refuses to let him diagnose her.
What I liked about this episode: I have gone on record before saying I hate this whole relationship thing between House and Cuddy and, …
Undercover Boss: NASCAR TV Show
The United States version of Undercover Boss recently aired an episode that focused on NASCAR. As a NASCAR fan, I was curious how this would work, mainly because NASCAR is more of a governing body than an employer; at least in the sense of how they portrayed it …
Super Bowl XLII Halftime show
I’ve seen just about every Super Bowl Half Time show over the past decade; even when didn’t watch the game. But, last night’s performance by Tom Petty was one of the most boring performances I’ve seen in a long while.
I understand how the NFL is now afraid of any …
The Inbetweeners - Series 3 - Episode 6
So we have now come to the end of the third and final series of The Inbetweeners. The final episode focused on the fact that Simon was going to be moving to Swansea and as such, the group of friends were now to be split up, so they go …
Stargate SG-1: Proving Ground
Proving Ground is a nice little episode of the fifth season of Stargate SG-1. It’s yet another show focused on Earth (one must wonder how much economics played in all of these Earth-bound episodes) where four potential SGC candidates are put through a rigorous training exercise, the four …
Baby First TV Channel
There is a new channel in our cable television channels. It is called Baby First. I think this channel is being offered for small kids or babies. The programs that you will find in this channel are not the same with the kids channel that we have. But all …

The Dr’s Morning Show
I love watching The Dr’s every morning on Fox 11 here in Tucson. The morning show airs nationally, and has been the next best thing to hit morning TV since The View! Better than The View actually, since The Dr’s at least teaches you something.
The topics on …
Diagnosis Murder: Naked Babes TV Show
Now this is an enjoyable show. I just love, love, love Diagnosis Murder: Naked Babes, which I thought was cute and inventive with some awesome surprise guest casting.
Basically, Amanda is hosting a dinner party at her home. Her guests are her hospital family — Mark, Jack, Delores, …

Survivor Season 20 Episode 1 Surviving Survivor

In the opening segment of Due South: Perfect Strangers, as the action begins, Royal Canadian Mountie, Constable Benton Fraser lands on top of Diefenbaker, his wolf dog, who milks every inch of his paw’s injury. Fraser thinks maybe he hasn’t been paying enough attention to the wolf. …
Man vs Wild TV show
Man vs Wild is a hit TV show on discovery channel, a very unexpected blow out. The program has something to appeal to everyone; from the beautiful scenery, the intensity of the plot, the outrageous feats, education value, and the thrill of it all.
I make it a chore to …
The Christmas Visitor cartoon
The Christmas Visitor, which was a cartoon production from the golden age by Halas and Batchelor, was a variation on the telling of the classic A Night Before Christmas. The color offering actually begins very classically in this regard, with the narration right from the very familiar story.
It’s …
Bones: The Perfect Pieces in the Purple Pond
Even though I still like the show Bones, I have felt it hasn’t been the same since Zach was arrested for murder last season. That’s why, in the episode The Perfect Pieces in the Purple Pond, I was glad to see him back in action; even if it was …
