Gilligan’s Island - The Second Ginger Grant TV Show
I have to admit this episode gets me confused every time I watch it. My head spins when Maryann becomes Ginger and Gilligan takes on Maryann’s personality. Mind things like this are difficult for me to swallow. I did enjoy watching Ginger perform in the opening scene. She shows …
Ghost Hunters Academy: The Honeymoon is Over
Well, episode 2 of Ghost Hunters Academy did at least have the “students” doing more than the first episode, as they explored a haunted battleship. But, it also revealed that these participants aren’t very good at working as a team.
Basically, you have one who claims to be a medium …
Top Chef: Foreign Affairs TV Show
Top Chef: Foreign Affairs began with scenes from last week that shows again how Alex stole another contestant’s pea puree and lied about it. All fingers point to him, and now he’s on my naughty list. Of course, we haven’t seen the full proof that he took …
Scrubs: Our Role Model
This was the best episode of the new season. I haven’t really been digging this new setup, but the show seems to be finding it’s footing. I was relieved to see Faison, Braff and McGinley added to the main credits but then it’s ruined by J.D talking …
Ghost Hunters: Beechwood Mansion and the Garden State
Yeah, I have to say I am now halfway through the second season of the show Ghost Hunters and am actually more disppointed in this one than I was in the first season. The episode “Beechwood Mansion and the Garden State” is a good example as to why.
Basically, you …
In Performance at the White House: A Broadway Celebration TV Show
From July 2010, In Performance at the White House: A Broadway Celebration was held in such a small room (the famed East Room) with so many people crowded into it that sometimes it’s distracting. The stage is tiny, too. The edited program began with President Barack Obama …
Scrubs show
I am not someone who is easily amused or even laughs out loud daily, but a couple years ago I began watching a show called Scrubs and immediately became hooked. And this is putting it lightly. After downloading the 5 seasons that had come …

The Andy Griffith Show: The Bed Jacket TV Show
The Andy Griffith Show: The Bed Jacket is a really delightful episode that I just love to watch. This third season show was a family bit surrounding Aunt Bee’s birthday. She has her heart set on this beautiful bed jacket, but naturally, she won’t just come out …
Stargate SG-1: Bounty
Stargate SG-1: Bounty gets mixed reviews, which isn’t that all surprising as season ten starts to wrap up. In this episode, Netan of the Lucian Alliance puts out a bounty on SG-1, all of whom are on downtime of some sort of another.
The oddest segment is Mitchell returning …

Law & Order Criminal Intent: Enemy Within

Top Chef: Just Desserts: Dessert Wars TV Show

The Simpsons: Million Dollar Abie

Basically, in this episode, Springfield has a chance to land an NFL team (despite the …
Revenge TV series

The Real Ghostbusters: Season 1, Episode 51: Hard Knight’s Day
Normally, I really like it when the show incorporates literature and mythology into the plot lines. As such, you’d think that I would’ve been able to get behind this episode as it centers around Arthurian lore. Yet somehow, this episode didn’t work for me as much as …
Home Improvement Show
I love this show, Home Improvement. It reminds me of growing up in the ’90s. I loved the banter between Tim Allen and Patricia Richardson, who played his wife, Jill. I like how they work everything out with each other and care about what the other thinks. And they …

Don’t Stop Believing: Episode 1 TV Show

Medium Season 4 Episode 3- To Have and to Hold
Medium Season 4 Episode 3- To Have and to Hold

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.
This was an OK movie but still not as good as others. Scooby and the Mystery Gang are …

This is actually the first of three episodes from December 1978 that gave a strong role to William Christopher as Father Mulcahy. This initial outing is M*A*S*H: Out of Gas, and it comes about because the 4077th has run out of sodium pentathol, meaning they have to use …

Stargate SG-1: Avalon Part 2
Stargate SG-1: Avalon Part 2 is the second episode of season nine, a season I’d just as soon forget, with a handful of exceptions.
Mainly, this episode continues the ridiculous plot of Daniel and Vala being linked because of these bracelets that she found. Neither can stay too far …
The Real Ghostbusters: Season 1, Episode 11: Citizen Ghost
After an episode that made direct reference to the “Ghostbusters” movie, it is only natural that they make an episode to show what happened between the battle with Gozer and the present. The episode is shown in flashback as a reporter interviews Peter as part of a story …
Family Guy: Padre de Familia
I’m usually a fan of the show Family Guy. But, some episodes just aren’t very funny. The episode entitled Padre de Familia is a good example of it.

The Jerry Springer show
The Jerry Springer show has run its course and needs to be taken off the air for good and the re-runs never need to be seen again. I can’t understand how this show was so popular for so long.
I can’t stand this show because the show is stupid and …
Bones TV Episode: The Man in the Cell
