The Dick Van Dyke Show (TV Show) - Remember the Alimony (Episode)
Sitcom episodes that mainly revolve around husband and wife arguments usually don’t entertain me as much as episodes that feature some kind of other plot focus. In “Remember the Alimony,” an episode of “The Dick Van Dyke Show,” viewers are treated to a flashback to a time when Rob …

What’s New Scooby Doo
I used to watch Scooby Doo a lot when I was a kid. And, recently, my daughter discovered it for herself.
The newer episodes, labeled “What’s New Scooby Doo” are definitely a nice continuation of the series. You have all the same major characters; however, they’ve been modernized and the …
Hawaii Five-O: Six Kilos
Hawaii Five-O: Six Kilos is another showcase for Jack Lord. So many episodes are nearly solo vehicles for Lord, and this is another one of them. The rest of the cast are relegated to brief moments on the screen as McGarrett checks in with them.
In Six Kilos, McGarrett …

Stargate SG-1: It’s Good to be King
Stargate SG-1: It’s Good to be King is the show that I consider to be the last real team show of SG-1. It’s truly the last time we get to see SG-1 off-world, together, including Jack. It’s a regular-type mission that ends well and that has all …

Season two of Due South rolled on with Body Language, a show that begins with Constable Benton Fraser returning a stuffed rabbit to a woman in a taxi after seeing it fall out by accident. He ends up seeing the woman dance at an exotic nightclub, and the …
Adam-12 Season 3 DVD Set
Thank goodness for Shout Factory. Because of them, the Adam-12 Season 3 DVD Set is available for purchase, and that’s a great thing. While I don’t always like the way Shout Factory organizes their various sets, I’m grateful that they are making shows available that Universal Studios …
Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman
This show revealed a different Superman which I rather liked. The show starts with Clark Kent moving to Metropolis, starting work at the Daily Planet, meeting Lois Lane, and creating Superman. Throughout the show, Clark goes through villain after villain and at the same time you see …
CHiPs: Rustling
CHiPs: Rustling from season one actually had what I would call the first serious storyline, one that was emotional on a deep level. Most of the time, things are light or perhaps angry, and there’s been emotion, but not quite like this.
G.W. Bailey plays a drunk driver who …
Adam-12: Extortion
The fourth season of Adam-12 got under way on September 15, 1971 with an episode called Extortion. It’s a good start for the police drama which starred Martin Milner and Kent McCord.
What I love about it first of all is that it starts out with the banter that …

The Two Coreys: Episode 2.6 - All You Need Is Love
This is a rather…awkward…episode. It actually borrows a little from one of the last season’s episodes involving romance and dating. Haim is having trouble approaching women and finding the right one - Ring a bell? Well that’s the case here… again.
It’s Valentine’s Day and while Haim is out …

Mad Hungry with Lucinda Scala Quinn: 9-16-10 TV Show
Mad Hungry with Lucinda Scala Quinn from the 16th of September, 2010 focused on Breakfast Favorites, using the perspective of how easy it can be to make homemade products. The thing is, it wasn’t easy for me and this was probably my least favorite episode of the opening …
That Girl: Gone With the Breeze

Highway Patrol: The Judge TV Show
From May 1958, Highway Patrol: The Judge had some good elements to it, along with some really dumb bits. In short, we have an escapee from prison named Baker (Robert Courtleigh), who wants nothing more than revenge against the judge who put him behind bars.
Paul Cavanagh guest stars …
Bones: Fire in the Ice
Wow, two new episodes of Bones in a row and both aren’t half bad.
While not as good as the first one, which involved a murder at a circus, the episode “Fire in the Ice” still managed to be interesting.
You have a fireman who played hockey against Booth who is …
Chase: Above the Law TV Show
This episode of Chase was called Above the Law. The series stars Kelli Giddish as Annie Frost, who heads her own team of United States Marshals. The woman has issues, though, and those always seem to be simmering beneath the surface.
The hour chiefly revolves around a man, …

Stargate: Infinity: Phobia TV Show
“If you keep a fear hidden, it will take control of you.” That’s the mantra of Stargate: Infinity: Phobia which is one of the animated episodes which aired on Saturday mornings for a while. It focused on an SG team that was stranded off-world since the GDO …
Models of the Runway: Burlesque Babies
Last night’s episode of Models of the Runway was OK but it is starting to get a bit on the predictable side again. With so few challenges left, I doubt they will force the designers to change models and I doubt the designers will do so by choice.
That one …
The X-Files Gender Bender Episode
This was one of my favorite episodes of the popular nineteen nineties television series “The X-Files”. This was because this one explored the whole issue of gender bending which was still fairly new in terms of having operations to convert into either a male or female in nineteen ninety …
What’s New Scooby Doo TV Episode: Farmed and Dangerous
I was up kind of early yesterday morning because our youngest daughter didn’t want to sleep. So, I ended up flipping channels and, since there wasn’t anything else on at the time, I ended up watching an episode of What’s New Scooby Doo with her; Farmed and Dangerous.
I think …
T-2 TV
I am using t-2 for my tv for last 3 motnhs. This is Slovenian TV provider, to be clear. So the signal comes from the ADSL line or the optical cable, if you have on. And i do. There is a lot of programs with this TV. The number …
The Office: Survivor Man
Having watched every episode of Survivor Man, the title of this episode of The Office intrigued me. This season of the office has finally hit it’s stride.
The best part about this episode was the same thing as the previous episode, that is the plausibility. Having left behind the large …
Cold Case Files on CBS
Having always been a fan of most true crime dramas on the former Court TV, which of course is now known as Tru TV, I immediately liked the show “Cold Case Files” when it aired on CBS.
The show revolves around Detective Lilly Rush, played by Kathryn Morris, her boss, …
Here Come the Brides: The Deadly Trade
Here Come the Brides: The Deadly Trade is the final episode of the first season and quite honestly, I’m not really crazy about it. It’s just a little darker than I like, and there is an animal bit that has always disturbed me.
The danger of logging is finally …
Rosie Live - Opening show
I did it deliberately..what did I do deliberately? I deliberately watched Rosie’s new variety show lastnight. Why? So I could confirm for myself that there is no hope for Tv, and that Rosie should retire and go take care of her kids. It has been a long time since …
Stargate Atlantis: Identity
The 18th episode of this last season of the series, Stargate Atlantis: Identity, gives us a strange-acting Jennifer Keller. The good doctor just isn’t acting like herself. Of course, we the viewers get a clue from the beginning, since it’s a different actress everyone thinks it’s Jennifer …
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 …
Tim Gunn’s Guide to Style
Ok, when I saw a show that starred Tim Gunn, I figured maybe there was something different on television. I was seriously wrong.
Tim Gunn’s Guide to Style, while admittedly sometimes entertaining, is nothing more than a rehashed version of every other makeover show on television.
Let me summarize ‘Well, Mrs. …
Laramie: Man from Kansas TV Show
Laramie: Man from Kansas, a second season outing of this hit western, is definitely one of my all time favorite episodes of this awesome western that stars John Smith as Slim Sherman and Robert Fuller as Jess Harper. There is so much conflict and emotion in this hour …
Celebrity Apprentice - 2009 Episode 1
The Donald is back again for another season of Celebrity Apprentice, and it promises to be equally as weird as the first year, only this year, the women are made up of a lot of females I’ve never heard of, versus just a few of those last year.
When I …
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers: I Love You Molly McGraw TV show
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers: I Love You Molly McGraw starts out with some animal angst, which I never enjoy watching. It’s Evan’s horse, Diablo, who develops a leg injury and might have to be put down. Then it’s new vet, Molly McGraw (Ann Dusenberry) who operates and …
The Oscar’s Awards Show - March 7, 2010
I watched the Oscar’s on Sunday night, and I was kind of disappointed. For one thing, I didn’t really like lining up all the contenders like it was an episode of American Idol or something.
The fashion was kind of lacking in some areas, as well. The men looked …
Divorce court (Reality Series)
I have to admit that one of my guilty pleasures of daytime television is “Divorce Court”. I have never been married and I can only assume that going through a divorce is a difficult thing to go through; however, when I watch “Divorce Court” and see some of the …
Psych: Christmas Joy
Hmm, first a Monk Christmas episode and now a Psych one; anyone else sense a theme here? Just kidding. As far as the episode “Christmas Joy” goes, it wasn’t too bad but also didn’t quite hit the standards I’ve come to expect from this detective show.
I will say the …
That Girl: Just Spell the Name Right
Joan Blondell and Robert Alda guest star That Girl: Just Spell the Name Right and are great to watch. Blondell is a high caliber and always makes her roles shine. I’ve always respected how she kept her career going by taking on character roles and such. …
Seinfield
This is an alright show overall. I will watch it when there is absolutely nothing else on television. I have only seen a few episodes of the show. There are a couple parts of the show that are funny but most of it is kind of stupid. Some parts …
South Park: Eat, Pray, Queef
South Park has always been known for gross-out comedy, and this episode continues that tradition. The episode revolves around the national disgust of feminine expulsions of gas as opposed to flatulence, and while it seems to be just another gross tactic, it ends up being a decent episode in …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: …And Five of Us Are Left TV Show
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: …And Five of Us Are Left, the third episode of the second season of this series which stars Richard Basehart and David Hedison, puts forth an intriguing and somewhat thought provoking ‘what if’ story that begins with an event from World …
The Simpsons: No Loan Again, Naturally
One of our local stations has been showing Simpsons re-runs of episodes that are more recent and, as a result, I haven’t seen before. Last night, they showed one called No Loan Again, Naturally, which I thought was pretty good.
The episode starts out with Homer throwing a big bash …
