Hello, I just finished watching this anime. It was Japanese but I had English subtitles on to understand what they were saying. I’m not actively learning Japanese, but by doing this I found that I know a lot of Japanese already and can also understand a lot of it, …

Much like “Love and Monsters”, this is an episode where the Doctor only plays a peripheral role. Unlike the aforementioned episode, this is one of the more highly regarded in the series. I had high hopes for this episode as it is often cited as one of …

After the downer ending from the previous episode, we get a more light-hearted romp that really thrives on its comedy. The opening leads you to believe that we’re going to have a “companion lite” episode as the Doctor is seemingly booted off of the TARDIS and is unable to …

The Andy Griffith Show: My Fair Ernest T. Bass brings back the character of the rock throwing mountain man, Ernest T. Bass played so brilliantly by Howard Morris. When last scene, Ernest T. wanted a uniform. Apparently, things didn’t go well. Now he is back, and …

Beast Wars - Changing of the Guard is an excellent episode - in part, because it is an episode of the series that does something quite different and it does so very well. This is one of two episodes in the series that takes place, partly, underwater. Rattrap is …

I’ve been watching episodes of the old cartoon show Voltron and today was the second episode in the series “Escape to another planet.”
While the animation in this cartoon still remains a bit weak compared to today’s cartoons, the plot itself definitely continues to be interesting; though I’m normally not …

Stargate SG-1: The Sentinel has SG-1 split as they try and fix a problem that was caused by another team’s visit.
Throughout the episode, Jack is in the ‘city’, appearing in scenes with Henry Gibson, famous from the Laugh-In television series. Gibson does nothing for me here, not that …

Last night’s episode of House, Brave Heart, wasn’t too bad.
After suffering through a long baseball game waiting for it to come on, I was a bit confused at first because it looked a lot like a cop show. But, it turns out the case involves a cop who comes …

Buffy’s final Halloween centric episode is something of a mixed bag. While it does a great job in continuing the pre-existing character and story arcs to great effect, the story itself is weak and lacking. It certainly doesn’t manage to capture the playful essence of the holiday previously seen …

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 …

I didn’t get a chance to see the Simpsons episode Smoke on the Daughter until last night. It turned out to be a pretty funny episode.
Basically, Marge decides to try to live her dream of becoming a ballerina only to discover she isn’t cut out for it. She then …

I got into financial difficulties many years when I was a mature student with a mortgage to cope with as well. I am still suffering the repercussions now and it is true what they say, that debt can become a vicious cycle. Therefore, I really enjoy programmes …

Tyra Banks decided she needed something else to dazzle us with, so she produced a reality show called True Beauty in the first couple of months in 2009. The premise here is that a group of models compete to be America’s most beautiful person. That’s what the …

In our ludicrous world that we call home, we simply recycle the only lonely good memories we have and in exchange, we are punished for such arrogance to the highest degree. The very same standard applies itself to all humans, whether they be small or strong. This is Neon …

The Virginian: The Lady from Wichita was a fairly decent episode from this 90 minute western’s sixth season on the air. The Shiloh Ranch was run by John Grainger (Charles Bickford), who is seen minimally in this outing. The regular of note was Doug McClure, whose Trampas …

Diagnosis Murder: Nirvana isn’t really a favorite episode of this series for me, but it still has some good moments. Dick Van Dyke is so good that he takes the mediocre and makes it worth watching. In this first season outing, Van Dyke’s Dr. Mark Sloan checks …

During the year I found a few series I started watching, but most of them were discovered by way of the internet. I actually found out about this one when it began advertising on the cable television channel, Starz, a little before the series Spartacus was set to have …

Anugerah Band is a local competition in my local channel that had already been finished its series. The winner band of this competition is Rancour, a band made of several youths and they could sing and play musical instruments. Not that bad they are actually, but on the …

I am ashamed. But I will admit that I do watch VH1’s “Real Chance of Love” Season 2. This is just one of those programs that you say is really stupid. But you can’t help but to watch anyway. At any rate, these two …

Beast Wars - The Trigger, Part 2 continues where the first part left off, and in this episode, despite the best efforts of Airazor and Tigertron, it is Blackarachnia that reaches the structure on the floating island first and begins to explore it. She begins to realize the potential …

1969 was indeed a very good year, at least for the team members of SG-1 when they end up walking through the Stargate and finding themselves not in their own time anymore.
Stargate SG-1: 1969 is really a super fun episode that I adore watching. The team’s reaction to their …

This episode is a bit different from the rest. There are no new points to the story. Instead the entire episode is used as a flashback on the events that had lead to the beginning of the series. It tells the stories of the dominant characters in the story …

Emergency!: Nurses’ Wild has some really wonderful moments in it, both on the humor front and the dramatic stage. This first season show confronts prejudice, of different styles. One story has Dr. Morgan (Ron Pinkard), who is an African-American, making a judgement on a hippie having a …

It’s the fear of flying, and yes, actual flying, that is at the core of Whoopi: Airplane! from 2004. The ladies are playing their usual weekly poker game and the topic of their yearly getaway game came up. It had already been decided that they’d go to …

Mythbusters is an entertaining educational program airing on the Discovery Channel. In each episode, a team of “mythbusters” tests the feasibility of various myths and urban legends. For example, past episodes have tested whether a tissue box in the back window of a car can injure the …

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 …

Although this episode did not involve any super dramatic events or incredible mysteries; the way it was shot made it really amazing. I think the most amazing aspect of it, was the way they filmed it. The camera and editing style have managed to deliver a real sense of, …

This episode was set in Mexico. It wasn’t one of my favorites, but I will take two bad episodes out of twenty two. The unsub was killing elderly women. Who kills grandmas? That’s just plain wrong! But I guess that was the point. While it was fun to …

The Ray Bradbury Theater: Fee Fie Foe Fum aired in October 1992 and featured All in the Family’s lovable Jean Stapleton as Grandma. Co-starring in the half hour episode was Lucy Lawless as Liddy Barton and Robert Morelli as Tom. There’s also a pretty white dog. …

Murder Is a Parlor Game is the second episode of Mrs. Columbo, a well intended but misguided attempt to capitalize on the Columbo crime drama. While Peter Falk was nowhere to be found, his car is in the opening credits and his basset hound is present in an …

Every pilot episode of a tv show should do three things: introduce the characters and the plot, set the tone for the series, and draw the viewer’s attention.
‘Blink’ achieves all three easily. The plot is, of course, similar to all the other procedurals out there, and as a part …

Whoopi: Identity Crisis is pretty much about what the title says, an identity crisis, but not of the emotional kind. It’s the identity theft type of crisis that Mavis Rae (Whoopi Goldberg) has to deal with. When she goes to pay for lunch for her family and …

Well, Monk isn’t on the air again for at least another month but at least we got a quick fix with the annual Christmas special “Mr. Monk and the Miracle.”
This one was a pretty interesting case. You have a homeless man being killed and shoved inside a refrigerator and, …

I highly recommend this show to everyone. This is a great show with clever dialog and wonderful acting. The main character, Tara, played by Toni Collette is a woman who suffers from multiple personality disorder. She has a handful of personalities we get to see …

As with every episode of Lost this one was a little weird. There was so much going on I won’t recap what happened. This episode was mainly about Sawyer/Locke and a little bit of Hurley.
It’s really nice to see the Locke character alive and well especially when …

Quincy M.E.: Who’s Who in Neverland is the second episode of this medical and crime drama which starred Jack Klugman as the chief medical examiner. In other words, he’s the head coroner and in diagnosing the cause of death, he always ends up in the middle of murder …

Dead Like Me: Sunday Mornings showed how JD the golden retriever was adjusting to life with the Lass family. It was their first semi-normal moment since the series began. I’m still worried about the dog, and it’s distracting me from the rest of the show.
A.J. Cook guest …

I began watching General Hospital back when Luke raped Laura. I was in high school then and watched it for many years afterward. I lost track of the show when I returned to work when my children got a little bit older. When I began to work from home, …

From season four, Adam-12: The Grandmothers has a cute little side story that evolves from a crime at a small shop owned by an elderly woman. Florence Lake plays Mrs. Frieda Pine, the owner of the store. She’s spry and full of vinegar, as the saying goes. …

Wagon Train: The Gus Morgan Story is not one of my favorites. It really never appealed to me. It bores me, to be honest. Peter Falk is the main star, playing Gus Morgan. Also appearing is Tommy Sands as Gus’ brother, Ethan Morgan. The …

OK, the SVU episode “Annihilated” had to be one of the most twisted, sick and sad episodes I’ve seen. Seriously, how can someone do something like that to their family?
The case starts out with a woman being murdered and a search for her fiancé, who is reportedly in the …

TMZ is a show that tells you updated news about celebrities and famous people. The people that talk on it just stand around and show you videos and pictures and talk about the updated news with celebrities or famous people. It’s an alright show overall, I think that they …

Blacke’s Magic: The Revenge of the Esperanza opens a bit differently for this hour-long drama. It seems Alex Blacke’s dad, Leonard, has been charging up a storm on the credit cards and isn’t where he was supposed to be, so Alex goes after him and gets involved with …

Watching this episode now, I have to wonder why the Law and Order Criminal Intent series decided to end their season with it. The previous episode is far better than this one, yet it is the season ended. I really didn’t care for this episode very much, and I’m …

Avatar: The Last Airbender Episode 6 begins with Aang and his friends arriving at an earth bending mining town where they discover that earth bending has been forbidden. Katara urges a boy named Haru to fight back and soon after he is arrested for earth bending. Katara …

I started watching American Idol in their first season because I loved to hear people sing. I thought a show that would give the opportunity to an amazing singer, who might not have a chance of otherwise being discovered, was an excellent idea. I loved watching it every …

Another of the extended episodes of The Office, Launch party continues the story of Ryan’s implementations of the new website, but it isn’t one of the better episodes feeling as if they stretched out a normal episode into an hour.
Most of the stuff that Michal does is repetitive and …
