All of the cable news networks have a slogan, or more than one; Fox News has “Fair and Balanced” and “We Report, You Decide” but none are as accurate in the opinion of this viewer and political junkie as MSNBC’s. With its line-up of entertaining and informative shows and …

CSI New York Season 2 Episode 12- Wasted
Absolutely loved this episode. Especially the first case. I wonder how the writers manage to think of all these cases. And I wonder how they do the research on all of these themes.
In the first case, the CSI team investigates the …

We were waiting for the Simpsons to come on last night and ended up watching a re-run of That 70s Show; the one entitled Baby Fever.
This was actually a cute episode. Kitty and Red agree to watch one of their friend’s baby (even though they end up dumping the …

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 …

Broderick Crawford is considered such a legend among TV cops. It’s understandable because in this series, Highway Patrol, he plays such a strong type. He barks out commands in rapid fire speak. He amazes me, in fact. He’s a pretty fast talker, and you have …

I absolutely love cooking shows. But I have to admit that this one is a favorite because the Barefoot Contessa cooks with such love and commitment. IN fact, I like the show because she often cooks meals and serves her husband and friends. He always …

From Las Vegas, it was Suzanne Somers being honored as the Woman of the Hour on this edition of The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast. On the dais from Three’s Company were Norman Fell, who was moderately funny in his presentation, and Audra Lindley.
Lorne Greene, Lee Meriwether, Norm Crosby, …

Have Gun - Will Travel: Odds for Big Red, the fourth show of season five, gets right to the action, and I question it. It is funny to me that Paladin has a lot of imperfections. Maybe that’s why the show worked. He’s almost an anti-hero, …

I think that Buffy the Vampire Slayer was a good show. But I only thought it was good when it first came out. This show with a brave heroine could have been classic. But it seems they kept adding to many characters and plot lines. They turned a horror action …

Well, that was a cute episode of the cartoon Phineas and Ferb. I wasn’t expecting much from an episode entitled Raging Bully and about thumb wrestling but it ended up being much better than I expected. In fact, I think it was downright entertaining.
Basically, in this episode, Phineas finds …

M*A*S*H: Bombed has the 4077th being bombed by friendly fire. It makes for a lot of humor as the regulars end up in all kinds of crazy situations and have to deal with more than just the usual silliness.
One of the major things that happens is that …

It’s revealed that Roku and Fire Lord Sozin were actually good friends …

Well, that episode of “That 70s Show” was pretty decent; Eric’s Burger Job.
Basically, the episode has Eric getting a job at “Fatso Burger” working as a cashier and doing other crappy jobs around the restaurant. He does it to prove to Red he’s responsible and, even though he hates …

This year, I surfed video on demand to try and find some holiday fare to watch. I just wasn’t satisfied with what I was finding on a daily basis. Maybe I just wanted to see something new here and there. One of the shows I stumbled …

Peoples Court tv featured channel 5 fox tv is an old show. For years it was headed by Judge Wapner who was fantastic at the show and really topped the ratings. Judge Judy’s husband also headed it for awhile. Although I liked the way he …

It’s time for the annual company party, and the usually tight-fisted Mr. Burns surprisingly reserves the Springfield Air and Space Museum as the venue. Once all of the employees have greatly enjoyed themselves, Burns drops the bomb that he will terminate the company prescription drug plan. At …

This is by far one of the creepiest X-Files episodes I have ever watched. The thing is I don’t remember watching this one as a child in the 90s, but what I do remember is watching it recently and feeling a bit disturbed during the episode and when it …

The Twilight Zone: It’s a Good Life is considered a classic episode of this great science fiction series. It is indeed very good. It’s a powerful tale, but it’s really an evil and frightening story, and it’s not one I like to watch. Maybe it’s because …

Beast Machines - The Reformatting is the first episode of the Beast Machines series and it is a good one! I think the writers did a superb job of conveying a sense of confusion that the viewers could share with the characters, that have no idea what is going …

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 …

Peep and the Big Wide World is a wonderful kids’ show on public television. The three main characers are crudely drawn birds in primary colors. There is the somewhat smart but crabby red cardinal/robin Chirp, the hilarious and egotistical blue duck Quack, and the innocent sweet little …

The woman is on fire in the show business industry. I’m writing about Betty White, who is the primary guest star in this December 1994 show, Diagnosis Murder: Death by Extermination. In this show, White plays Dora Sloan, the sister of Dr. Mark Sloan, played wonderfully by …

M*A*S*H: Oh, How We Danced is the second episode that deals with one of B.J. Hunnicutt’s (Mike Farrell) wedding anniversaries. The good news is that it fits the continuity. In February 1980, they aired the show called Lend a Hand where the 4077th threw B.J. a party …

Sarah Silverman brings her usual blend of the bizarre, the insulting and the anarchic to the small screen in her very own sitcom. Playing a fictionalized version of herself, Sarah idles her way through life, living in a cushy apartment in LA paid for by her doting younger sister …

John Adams was a 7-part mini-series on HBO. I don’t get that channel so had to wait for a chance to see it. I love revolutionary stories when well done, so going into this first episode, entitled Join or Die, I was hopeful it would engage me. …

I had intended on being in bed last night by 9. But, I ended up watching a re-run of Law & Order SVU; Raw. I have to tell you, it was one of the most intense episodes I’ve seen.
I missed the first few minutes of it but apparently they …

Well, I have to admit, I had my doubts about last Friday’s episode of Psych. But, it turned out to be a somewhat interesting episode.
Shawn and Gus are asked to investigate a girls suicide at a Catholic School and whether or not it was the result of a possession …

Now this is an intriguing show. The Prisoner: Do Not Forsake Me, Oh My Darling gives star Patrick McGoohan a bit of a rest. Most of the show, his mind is in another man’s body, so all we hear are his thoughts. That’s a nice way …

I have to say that for the most part, I am preferring the United Kingdom’s version of The Apprentice UK over the American one. It’s more how British Lord Alan Sugar handles the show. It’s not the same as Donald Trump, and he has more surprises, though …

M*A*S*H: Wheelers and Dealers isn’t a favorite really. One of the reasons why is that it feels like a retread. The specific segment I’m thinking of hasn’t been done specifically, the after effects of it have been.
The story rotates around B.J. Hunnicutt (Mike Farrell). He’s gotten …

In this episode Denny Miller guest stars as Tongo the Ape Man. Denny Miller and all his glory, no wonder I love the old Tarzan episodes so much I watched when I was a kid. He is so buffed up he even lifts Maryann and Ginger both at the …

The Amazing Race is one of my favourite shows. It’s a yearly series on CTV, Wednesdays at 7 pm central time. This season, teams have to travel across the world and follow the directions precisely to each task that they do. The winners at the end of the race …

Chappelles Show was a comedy show hosted by Dave Chappelle and aired on Comedy Central for two seasons. Chappelles show was a big hit with audiences and trailed in fame and appeal only to South Park which ran on the same network.
Dave Chappelle is now hailed as a comic …

From September 1959, Kelp Forest, a show from Sea Hunt’s second season, really didn’t do much for me, and the reason why is that there’s nothing new in this show, including the guest stars.
Here’s the thing. Actor Ted de Corsia has been in multiple episodes of Sea Hunt. …

Stargate SG-1: Jolinar’s Memories was an episode from the third season and is actually the first of a two-parter in which SG-1 go to hell, well, in the show, it’s call Netu. The basis for the trip are memories that Sam has from the time when she’d been …

I really enjoy relaxing while I watch Law and Order on T.N.T. every night. I have been a court advocate, and worked with the law a great deal. I do a lot of critique watching while I watch this show, and I find it to be pretty close to …

This hour of The Good Wife, titled VIP Treatment, was interesting because it was self contained in many ways, which honestly surprised me. There was actually not all that much of Julianna Margulies in my opinion. I felt like the concentration of the camera was more on …

Another incarnation of Luc Bessons original film ‘La Femme Nikita’ hit the airwaves this year, with Asian bombshell Maggie Q filling out the title role and surprisingly, its pretty damn good.
For those of you not familiar with the character, Director Luc Bessons ‘La Femme Nikita’ first introduced the …

In M*A*S*H: The Winchester Tapes, the newest member of the 4077th, Major Charles Emerson Winchester III, makes a tape to send home to his parents. The well-to-do character ended up replacing Frank Burns (Larry Linville) in the first show of the season.
In my opinion, it was a good …

Star Trek: The Next Generation - Ensign Ro is an episode that I enjoy, although it is an episode that I also have some complaints about. For one, I do wish that the writers would have explained either in this episode or a future episode just what happened on …

Gary Unmarried is the show that Professor Payne left Ghost Whisper to star in. His new name is Gary, and I can’t remember the last name. I just know that he’s just as cute in jeans and a tee-shirt as he was in a suit and tie.
Now if the …

Big Brother All Stars! One of the most addicting shows I have ever watched. Ok I admit it I have been a fan since the 2nd season when Will the doctor one. And have been watching it since. I admit I have not actually watched EVERY episode, but I …

Last week after the Olympics concluded, I watched the half-hour premier of Marriage Ref, a show from the apparently deluded mind of Jerry Seinfeld. My review was very harsh. Basically, I thought this show was a piece of junk. Last night, since there was an opportunity …
