TV Reviews
Due South: Mask
One of the things I really like about Due South: Mask is the Indian culture and lore that comprises a big part of the story. I’m always taken with the legends and such that are part of the very rich Indian heritage. This show is full of …
Stargate SG-1: Ripple Effect
Stargate SG-1: Ripple Effect is hands down the best episode of the entire final two seasons of this series. While not perfect, it was fun, and it let us revisit with much-loved characters on the show.
In essence, SG-1 gets diverted to an alternate reality, as do numerous other …
The Dean Martin Show: Dean Martin TV Show
This was a different type of outing for the celebrity roast. This issue of The Dean Martin Show roasted Dean Martin himself. Taped in Las Vegas, it had a tremendous dais, one of the biggest and best of the entire roast history. Everyone had to love …
That Girl: Dark on Top of Everything Else
That Girl: Dark on Top of Everything Else begins with a lot of miscommunication between boyfriend and girlfriend. It starts innocently enough with a fun welcome when Don Hollinger (Ted Bessell) arrives at Ann Marie’s (Marlo Thomas) apartment while she’s working on a puzzle. Their big decision …
Galapagos: The Islands That Changed The World
Oh my! Nature lovers, if you have yet to watch Galapagos: The Islands That Changed The World the documentary, what are you waiting for? Kids would love this. They should feature this on science centers with 3D effect, it would be so amazing. Notice nature at its …
Ghost Hunters: OK Corral
Well, after the disappointment I had from the Tombstone episode of Ghost Hunters, I have to admit I wasn’t overly thrilled about the next episode “OK Corral.” But, at least they had a bit more evidence than they did when they visited the Bird Cage theater in the …
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast: Joe Namath (#2) TV Show
On this evening, Joe Namath was the Man of the Hour being roasted in The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast. Namath was one of four people who were roasted twice during these events. This was his second time in the hot seat. As often was the case, …
The Simpsons TV Episode: Donnie Fatso
Synopsis: Homer is arrested and the only way to avoid prison time is going undercover for the FBI in an effort to collect evidence against mafia boss Fat Tony.
What I liked about this episode: I think the best part of this episode, for me at least, had to be …
That Girl: Chef’s Night Out
That Girl: Chef’s Night Out has some very nice comedic moments to it, and it’s a story that they hadn’t done before. After her parents leave on a trip, Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) and Don Hollinger (Ted Bessell) drop by the family restaurant to make sure everything is …
Red Dwarf TV show
Even after well over a decade since it was last on our screens, apart from a rather badly conceived “Back to Earth” special shown in 2009, Red Dwarf remains - at least as far as I am concerned - the greatest of all science fiction sitcoms. The BBC stuck …
Simpsons: Homer’s Barbershop Quartet
I saw a Simpson’s episode I haven’t seen in a while “Homer’s Barbershop Quartet” and it is as good as I remember it.
For those who haven’t seen this episode (or maybe don’t remember it), it talks about a time in Homer’s past when he, Principal Skinner, Apu and Barney …
Kuya
I use to watch Jerry Springer show that’s why this morning show captured my attention. The program is entitled Good Morning Kuya and the format - just the format, not the content - is somehow parallel. The first scene that I was able to see was the host, …
Family Guy: Love, Blactually
OK, I know I shouldn’t be letting my daughter watch Family Guy at all. But, a lot of the episodes really aren’t any worse than what she would see on a show like Spongebob. However, the episode that was on yesterday afternoon, Love, Blactually, is one I definitely regret …
Paternity
OK, I�ll admit, I only tuned in this week because the car crash promo had me interested. Who gets seriously hurt; Olivia or Elliott�s pregnant wife?
Overall though, I thought this episode was weak at best. You had a debate about whether a child should know if his father isn�t …
Psych: Murder, anyone, anyone, bueller?
After it’s first season, the show Psych has gotten a bit stale. But, one of the more recent episodes “Murder…anyone…anyone…Bueller” isn’t too bad compared to many of the other newer episodes.
This one takes place at Sean and Gus’ high school reunion and Sean witnesses a classmate falling from the …
Naruto Episode 23 Subbed
Another informational episode with little to offer interest wise, episode 23 is used to explain to both the characters and viewers the specifics of the Chuunin Exam. The first explanation comes from Kakashi, telling Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura that the Chuunin Exam has to be taken in teams of …
NCIS Los Angeles Season 4 Episode 4
I am very glad to see that Hetty is back for good on episode 4 of season 4 of NCIS Los Angeles. After the departure of Agent Taylor last month Hetty is right back where she belongs. It think that it was completely unnecessary to take her out of …
America’s Next Top Model Cycle 10 Episode 4
The girls were brought to a Fire Station in New York city. They were asked to changed on “firemen-inspired” outfits and was given 90 seconds to do it. The girls were screaming and they squabble like children who’s after for candies that were scattered on the floor. Fatima …

Due South: Pizzas and Promises
I have to keep reminding myself that Diefenbaker the wolf is a regular and isn’t going to have a sad ending, but I have to admit it’s hard. I’m just a huge animal lover and can’t stand seeing anything bad or sad happen. Due South: Pizzas and Promises …
Centennial: The Scream of Eagles
Skipping ahead to modern day, the majestic and inspiring mini-series, Centennial, concludes with this episode called The Scream of Eagles. It’s a wonderful wrap up that reviews how the land was loved and nurtured by the Native American Indians and just how the white man has done just …

HD, or High Definition is the latest evolution in the ongoing quest for more life-like reproduction of images and sound when viewing movies and television and is becoming the norm the world over.
DSTV has recently launched an HD channel, and released the HD PVR DECODER to go along …
Bones: The Salt in the Wounds
I’m not sure if last night’s episode of Bones “The Salt in the Wounds” was really all that great of an episode. I’m not sure why but I watched it and I was left wanting so much more than I thought.
The case itself was somewhat interesting, you have a …
Ghost Hunters: Ghostly Conversation
I was watching Ghost Hunters last night and got to see a more recent episode I haven’t seen before; Ghostly Conversation.
This one was somewhat interesting because they got to visit a really fancy hotel that was supposedly haunted by the princess that once owned it and frequented it; likely …
My Fair Wedding with David Tutera tv show
One thing I absolutely dread watching is those wedding reality tv shows I would always see airing on different television channels, and one of those was “My Fair Wedding with David Tutera”. However, it was a limitation of choices that caused me to start watching it and liking it.
I …
I Love Lucy TV show
The I Love Lucy TV show may be a bit old, but it is still one of the best, leaving far behind most of the modern-day shows that I can only describe as stupidity/immorality parade.
I Love Lucy is funny and tasteful. You can watch it with your children without …

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Superstar
It has been a while since I’ve seen the Buffy the Vampire Slayer Jonathan. The last time we saw him was during season three, when he attempts to kill himself and Buffy stops him.
We see him again in the episode “Superstar” only this time he is a member of …

Have Gun - Will Travel: Birds of a Feather presents a situation where Paladin (Richard Boone) offers his services and it takes a while to figure out which side is the right one. Two companies, the Texas - Colorado & Overland Railroad and the Continental Divide Railroad are …
The Golden Girls show
How on earth did some of the discussion on the Golden Girls manage to sneak by the censors? Maybe it was because the show featured four acclaimed actresses then in their golden years so the innuendo and raunchiness snuck by them or immobilized them completely. All I know is …
The X-Files D.P.O Episode
This is one of my most memorable episodes of the popular 1990s American television series “The X-Files”. It was memorable to me because of the plot of that particular episode whereas I had always wondered if people who were struck by lightning and survived ever became electrically charged even …
Psych TV Episode: Meat is Murder but Murder is Also Murder
I love the show Psych but, for some reason, I ended up missing most of the second season of the show (I think I was working or something). So, in my spare time, I’ve been trying to catch up on it by watching the second season on our Netflix …
Will & Grace
Will & Grace is a sitcom about a gay man, Will, and his straight best friend, Grace. The two live in New York City and spend a lot of time with their eccentric friends Jack and Karen.
The show follows the four friends as they deal with dating, marriage, friendship, …
The X-Files: Season 3, Episode 2: Paper Clip
Concluding the three part extravaganza, this episode manages to maintain all of the things that worked about the previous episode, while toning down on the stuff that didn’t. The pseudo-philosophical narration is still here, but it doesn’t play as large a part as it did when Mulder was …
Doctor Who: School Reunion
The Doctor comes face to face with an old ally in this adventure. When he and Rose go undercover at a comprehensive school at the advice of friend Mickey; it’s not just a dastardly alien plot they come face to face with, when old companion Sarah Jane Smith bumps …
Adam 12 - Log 62
This episode of “Adam-12″ has a sub-plot that most of us can identify with — the sound under the hood of our cars that drives us positively batty until it finally stops. We just hope that once it does stop, our cars are still running! In this …
Spongebob Squarepants Season One: Boating School
Spongebob is having one heck of a time passing his boating exam, and all he wants to do is pass his test so that he can get his driver’s license. He does not know what he is going to do if he does not pass this time, or …
The Walking Dead Episode 1 Days Gone By
Since I saw the trailer of The Walking Dead on cable, I just knew I had to watch it. Honestly I am not really a huge fan of zombies. I’m a bit terrified of them but I do watch them, which is probably the influence of my boyfriend since …
Mad TV
MADtv is a hoot to watch. With the cast of people MADtv has, it’s a sure thing that the skits will be funny. My favorites skits involve Stuart and his crazy, overbearing, overprotective mom, Ms. Bunny Swan, the crazy Asian lady which you can never predict what she will …
Law & Order SVU TV Episode: Disappearing Acts
Synopsis: Benson and Stabler want to arrest a suspected serial rapist. However, they are prevented from doing this by federal agents because their suspect (and one of his victims) is in the Witness Relocation program.
What I liked about this episode: I think the part of this episode I liked …
Stargate SG-1: The Fifth Man
Stargate SG-1: The Fifth Man is a fairly entertaining entry for the fifth season of this science fiction series.
John DeLancie returns again as Colonel Frank Simmons, a man on his own agenda. DeLancie is a wonderful actor, who can be delightfully evil and wonderfully playful. He’s very …
Dancing with the Stars
Do you need a good laugh?Or just want to look at the pretty people making a fool of themselves.
I have to give it to them,it takes a lot of heart to get on national TV and know you can’t dance,yet you give it your all.I think it is a …
The Cleaner: Rebecca
Steven Culp and Kelly Lynch guest starred in The Cleaner: Rebecca. This was another solid episode with a lot of drama to it which I enjoyed watching. Both Culp and Lynch are excellent performers and they bring a lot to the table. Lynch is especially riveting …
The X-Files William Episode
I thought this episode of the popular 1990s television show was okay. I couldn’t say that I found it particularly intriguing, as I didn’t think it was very good. However, I didn’t think that the episode was very terrible either. I thought that all the elements …
Heartland
The new TNT medical show heartland is far from a show that gets to the heart. The star Treat Williams who always plays a murderer in shows is great playing a murderer, but when it comes to playing a doctor he is so unconvincing. You never see …
M*A*S*H: A War for All Seasons
M*A*S*H: A War for All Seasons goes through the year1951 told in one thirty-minute show, which further points out how crazy it is that this show lasted almost five times the length of the actual war, which went from 1950-1953. This would mean that the first eight seasons …
Friday Night SmackDown
If you like fights and wrestling then you will love Friday Night Smackdown. In fact I am watching it right now as I type up this review. I have always loved SmackDown and I remember when it used to be on Thursday nights. Now it is on Friday nights but …
