TV Reviews
One Tree Hill
I love the show One Tree Hill. It has been a favorite of mine since the first show started. I own seasons one and two on DVD. If I ever have some extra money I will buy the next seasons on DVD. I love all of the characters and …
South Park
South Park is a fun TV show, a very button-pushing parody comedy show, with lots of profanity and stuff designed to shock. I like it, though I can see why many don’t. It’s original, and very intelligent. The humour is a bit cruel for its targets, yet South Park …
Legend: The Gospel According to Legend
The Gospel According to Legend is the seventh episode of this Richard Dean Anderson futuristic western. I like this one quite a bit. A man Ernest Pratt (Anderson) knew before as a low life called Weasel Willy comes to town as Mordechai and claiming to be reformed …
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast: Dan Haggerty TV Show
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast continued with the Man of the Hour, Dan Haggerty, best known as Grizzley Adams. The dais featured a few performers known for playing similar outdoor characters along with the usual suspects of ridiculous ‘why bother’ comics.
To be honest, this was the most boring …

This third season episode of Have Gun - Will Travel revolves around a painting of a woman that hangs in the saloon/hotel of a town named Bonanza. Our hero, Paladin (Richard Boone), arrives in the town and while enjoying a drink admires the painting of a woman. …
Here Come the Brides: Mr. & Mrs. J. Bolt
Here Come the Brides: Mr. & Mrs. J. Bolt opens humorously. The Bolt brothers are taking a break from their logging camp by spending time at their cabin, supposedly to relax. The problem is that Jason (Robert Brown) is the only one enjoying the scenery as he …
The Twilight Zone: Valley of the Shadow TV Show
The Twilight Zone: Valley of the Shadow is very enjoyable to watch. It’s a mystery that held my interest and kept me guessing, all the way to the end.
Ed Nelson is the primary guest star, playing a reporter named Philip Redfield who passes through a small town. …
Sable: Copycat
Sable: Copycat has a basic plot that we’ve seen a hundred times in all kinds of dramas in all genres. There’s a street-wise young girl who can talk fast and make excuse after excuse who naturally latches on to Sable. Actually, it’s Sable’s alter ego of Nicholas …
The Tyra Banks Show
Last summer I discovered “The Tyra Banks Show”, and currently, it is the only daytime talk show I would anticipate, sit and watch. It is hosted by the former very popular African American supermodel Tyra Banks, who also for some time in the past helped host “The Oprah Winfrey …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Doomsday Island TV Show
The 23rd outing of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea’s third season on TV was called Doomsday Island. Like the last show, it’s most an ensemble piece with no major guest stars. That means we get a lot of Richard Basehart as Nelson and David Hedison …
On Demand Television
I opted to purchase On Demand Television in my home. As a result, I have wound up getting four hundred some odd television channels that I thought I would never utilize. I suppose I underestimated the the addictive nature of being spoiled enough to have such a …
Family Guy: Play it again, Brian
Sometimes I really have to wonder about the dog, Brian, on the show Family Guy. Some episodes he reminds me of a sophisticated, well-educated person I know. Other days he reminds me of our family cat; who seems jealous of me when it comes to my wife (we affectionately …
Jeopardy: Game Show
Jeopardy is my favorite current game show. I like the challenge, because I find shows like Wheel of Fortune too easy. I also like that it asks trivia and knowledge questions. This makes me feel smart when I know the answer. I also like learning …
The Dean Martin Comedy Hour: Hugh Hefner TV Show
Well, even Hugh Hefner got into being The Man of the Week for this The Dean Martin Comedy Hour edition. A lot of these original roasts have been repackaged under the moniker of The Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts, the evolution of the roasting a bit murky for many. …
The Dean Martin Comedy Hour: Kirk Douglas TV Show
The great Kirk Douglas was the honoree who was roasted on this edition of The Dean Martin Comedy Hour. I like to see performers of his caliber in the hot seat. Usually someone like Douglas means more appropriate people on the dais, though not always.
One of my …

The Jeffersons (TV Show) - The First Store (Episode)
“The First Store” is an episode of “The Jeffersons”. It is one of the more emotionally-charged episodes of the series. By emotionally-charged, I mean the episode is designed to invoke a strong emotional response in the audience. It certainly had that affect on me. In this episode, George and …
Baywatch
Baywatch was a cool show in it’s time and I loved to watch it. I think Baywatch does not get the credit it deserves as all it is really known for is pretty girls running on the beach and when the show first came out it was a …
The Carol Burnett Show: Steve Martin and Betty White TV Show
In its eleventh and final year, The Carol Burnett Show included an episode that included Steve Martin and Betty White, along with its regulars, Vicki Lawrence and Tim Conway.

Spongebob squarepants

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Reptile Boy

Undercover Boss: Joel Manby TV Show

CEO Joel Manby …
How I Met Your Mother TV show
This is without shadow of a doubt one of the better TV shows out there. It is he story of this man, Ted that in the year ~2029 tells his children how he met their mother. Fact is he always tells stories of different relationships which all ended (sooner …
Iron Chef America
One of my very favourite television shows is Iron Chef America. It is shown on the Food Network (Channel 34 on Cogeco Cable) several times a week, generally in the evenings after 9 p.m.
The premise of the television show is that chefs who are specialists in different areas …

Office office
Office office , A rib tickling comedy show broad casted on SAB tv daily. Though a comedy show it shows the reality of Indian government office. The show shows how a common man needs to bribe and go around here and there for getting his work done. From peon …
Dead Like Me: Reaper Madness
Dead Like Me: Reaper Madness was the first episode of this series that I just sort of watched and enjoyed calmly. One of the reasons is that I do love happy endings. I like positiveness. I’m just not into doom and gloom and offbeat stuff that …
The Andy Griffith Show: The Haunted House TV Show
From October 1963, The Andy Griffith Show: The Haunted House is a classically funny episode of this comedy series which features Griffith as small town sheriff, Andy Taylor. Andy is more common sense oriented than most of the others we meet in this rural community of Mayberry, North …
Seven days Season 3 Episode 7 The Fire Last Time
I guess every show sooner or later has to have an episode about escaped prisoners so the time for this show to present such an episode has arrived. Although the title of the show was The Fire Last Time I will remember it under another title, The Episode That …
The Prisoner: Living in Harmony
I’ve never thought of the old west as being particularly harmonious, but somewhere in Patrick McGoohan’s mind, it apparently is, or at least is for the purposes of this episode of The Prisoner. McGoohan plays Number Six, an ex-spy being held prisoner in some unknown place called The …
Cover Her Face - Part 1
Cover Her Face was another tale of Chief Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh. Apparently, that’s a grade below Inspector, which is how I’m used to seeing the Dalgliesh character. Unfortunately, I’m not watching these television adaptations in order, so I keep getting the story at various points. I’ve …
Face Off (tv show)
One of my favourite series to watch on the SyFy channel these days is “Face Off”. However, that wasn’t always the case since up to last year I would see it being aired and never really took to it since I just didn’t think that it would be my …
Star Trek: The Trouble with Tribbles TV Show
Star Trek: The Trouble with Tribbles is arguably the most popular episode in the history of Star Trek. The show is so entertaining and has a lot of humor within its hour. Tribbles, cute little white fur balls, are adorable. I own a couple myself.
The setup …
The Twilight Zone: A Most Unusual Camera TV Show

The Twilight Zone: Sounds and Silences TV Show
For me, The Twilight Zone: Sounds and Silences is simply a grating and annoying experience, much like the main character the story surrounds. John McGiver does a nice job as Roswell G. Flemington, a man who loves noise and doesn’t care that he’s perceived as being obnoxious by …
Desperate Housewives
The new TV season if Desperate Housewives has finally arrived!
Bree is still wearing the fake pregnancy bump pretending she’s pregnant in order to hide her daughter’s pregnancy. Lynette has lost all her hair from cancer- and ends up on the first episode ripping off her wig to reveal her …
NBC’s Chuck television show
I’m going to go ahead and review a television show that had recently come to and end; NBC’s “Chuck.” But I’m going to look at it through more of a personal aspect—¦ this show is very easy to relate to, which is what makes it such a pleasure …
Biography: Nancy McKeon TV Show
The Biography series, often presented on A&E but now more often and regularly shown on The Biography Channel, has produced some outstanding and informative hours of programming. Sometimes I learn a lot and at other times, it’s just entertaining. In the case of the biography on actress …
Ghost Hunters: Attack of the Irish Elementals
I finally got to see the episodes where the TAPS team gets to travel to Ireland and England to do some investigating. And, the episode “Attack of the Irish Elementals” is definitely an interesting one.
First of all though, how did that one guest investigator Barry (later a star of …
Six Feet Under (Series)
If you’ve neither seen nor heard of this show before, on the surface, it might seem like nothing more than a quirky sitcom. I myself have known people to write it off as a dysfunctional family living in a funeral home, but if they’d taken the time to watch at …
The Andy Griffith Show: The Rumor TV Show
It really is hard to be all that excited by the April 1964 The Andy Griffith Show: The Rumor because we’ve been there and done that. There are countless episodes where Barney overreacts to seeing Barney with a girlfriend and then jumps to the conclusion that they are …
Colbert Report
This is what a satirical news program should be. While the Daily Show is quickly losing its edge, the Colbert Report is on fire. A more direct parody of the O’Reilly Factor in particular and Fox News Channel in general (this is obvious the second the opening …
Psych TV Episode: Gus’ Dad May have Killed an Old Guy
I’m not exactly sure what I was doing during the second season of Psych. But, apparently there were quite a few episodes that season that I missed because I was seeing them for the first time during a marathon on Saturday.
One of them, Gus’ Dad May have Killed and …
That Girl: That Shoplifter
You just have to feel for Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) in That Girl: That Shoplifter. She’s so innocent and naive sometimes. Of course, back in 1971 when this ABC hit comedy aired, things weren’t as jaded as they are today.
While working as a specials announcer at a …
