The Phoenix Under Siege episode of MacGyver is another good episode. It’s the return of Harry Jackson, MacGyver’s grandfather, as played by the talented John Anderson. It’s a special anniversary for the two, though not a pleasant one. It seems the two are planning to attend …

As I’ve written in prior reviews for Stargate SG-1, season four was a turnaround, one in which the Jack and Daniel friendship was shoved aside in favor of the Jack and Sam dynamic, limited as it was. Jack and Daniel fans were furious and this episode, The Light, …

Just as “Midnight” focused on the Doctor and featured Donna in a minimal capacity, so too does this one focus on one character while leaving another one on the sidelines, though this time it inverts that formula. The focus is on Donna and the episode takes a look at …

I had heard about the television show Iron Chef. But, until last night, I hadn’t taken the time to watch it. While I found it somewhat interesting, I’m not sure if it’s a show I would watch on a regular basis.
Basically, the premise behind Iron Chef is you have …

This was the first episode in the 8th season (1970) of BBC’s Doctor Who and the first season broadcast in color and the first episode featuring the brilliant Jon Pertwee in the role of The Doctor.

I was very pleased that Death of an Expert Witness - Part 4 was much better than Part 3. The pace was better and the scenes more intriguing.

The first thing I enjoyed about the Memorial episode of Touching Evil was the time we got to see David Creegan (Jeffrey Donovan) spend with his ex-wife and daughters. I continue to enjoy that connection which is strong and very present. It’s the first time we really …

The new TV series, Spartacus: Blood and Sand is a TV series that can be seen on the STARZ channel. However, a couple of the first episodes have been leaked and let me assure you, they do not disappoint. There has been a ton of blood, sex, and violence …

Well, Whatever with Alexis and Jennifer from September 16, 2010 began with yet another attempt by Alexis to be a fashion plate. How is she supposed to be relatable if she is trying to look like a Fashion Week model? This is especially hard when her hairdos …

M*A*S*H: Dear Dad… Three simply refers to this being the third episode where we get a full out letter from Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda) to his father. These episodes are always so good to watch. They provide glimpses of life at the 4077th and allow a lot …

I enjoy watching the shows of Lifestyle Channel. The shows really are about one’s lifestyle, covering topics such as cooking and design. One of my favorites is the show of Giada de Laurentiis called Everyday Italian. This is her cooking show where she demonstrates to her viewers how to …

As we flee from the threat of our identities of being revealed, we must question the nature of this fear in the first place. Does it exist to torment us, or is it an foolish illusion wrought by man’s own hands? These questions may not have an answer at …

I know that this is one of the most popular shows on TV but I really don’t like it. Just yesterday I saw that there were some reruns of this show and I started thinking to myself: ‘Why don’t I like this show?’ So I started watching the episode …

Star Trek: The Next Generation - Booby Trap is an episode that is quite good. What I particularly like about this episode is the music. It is exceptionally good in achieving a sense of wonder and awe in scenes that warrant it, while in other scenes, projecting tension and …

I was very surprised that I enjoyed The Ray Bradbury Theater: Great Wide World Over There as much as I did. This is a really quiet, unassuming half hour from October 1992. The cable show starred Tyne Daly as Cora Gibbs, Bill Johnson as her husband, Tom …

I would have to give 10 points for this Friends Episode: The One with Rachel’s Other Sister. Hilariously funny, because Amy, Rachel’s sister, is not satisfied with Rachel’s mistrust on her taking care of Rachel’s baby Emma. Amy starts to snort beside Rachel and trying to find fault …

I love stories about the past and mysteries in general so I tend to be thrilled when the two genres combine. That is what attracted me to a television series such as “Mysteries at the Museum”. I’m able to watch a series that reveals the secrets behind certain relics I …

“Where’s Papa” is an episode of “The Jeffersons”. I enjoyed this episode because it dealt with George’s past, and more specifically, his father. George becomes upset when he discovers his father’s will and in that will, his final request is to be buried next to his wife. George had …

So we come to the first part of the fifth season’s finale, and man, does it manage to cram a lot into the 47 minute run time. The first few minutes jump around to various historical eras. This allows us to see some past characters like Van Gogh, …

Normally, I like pretty much everything my daughter is exposed to on Nick. However, their addition of the show Back at the Barnyard is an insult to parents everywhere.
There is nothing worthwhile about that show. The jokes are 100 times cruder than some “adult” cartoons on television and I …

Supernatural season 2 wasn’t nearly as good as the first season and it also wasn’t quite as good as some episodes in the third season, but it was still pretty good. The first season ended on a cliffhanger and the first episode picks up right where that one ended. …

My …

The TV Show Charmed is now on DVD. I have a tendency to do everything backwards. To learn thing backwards. And I actually started with Season 8 of Charmed. I had watched a few episodes off and on through-out the run of Charmed on the WB. But never …

The Ghostbusters are hired on as consultants for a horror movie. It seems like a simple gig, but things get bad fast. Considering how many stories there are of haunted sets and “cursed” shoots, you might think that this is where the plot is going. As …

One of the things I never liked about Buffy the Vampire Slayer is the fact the main character has almost superhero-like powers to help her fight evil; something that gives her almost too much of an advantage.
That’s one thing I liked about the episode “Helpless.” Buffy, who is turning …

It is closing time at the Krusty Krab and when Mr. Krabs is counting down the drawer, he notices that he is missing a dime. This is not any dime, this is his very first dime that he has ever made. The first thing in his mind to do …

Setanta Sports is a channel offered by some of the cable companies in the USA that carries mainly sports that are very popular in Europe and Asia, such as soccer, rugby or cricket. The channel is not cheap - as far as I know it’s only offered for $15 …

This episode picks up where the last left off, with John Smith being forced to comply to an order that makes absolutely no sense to him made by beings that he has no seeming familiarity with. Kudos to Martha for turning the tables the way she did. …

Stargate SG-1: Shadowplay is hum drum for me. It bores me to no end. Its focus is a potential Kelownan civil war. The thing is, who cares? The Kelownans are selfish cowards, as evidenced by Jonas Quinn himself, so I’m not sure why Earth should …

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.

I love The Andy Griffith Show: Those Gossipin’ Men. It’s a story of revenge, lightheartedly delivered, and it’s a hoot to watch. It all begins when Sheriff Andy Taylor teases Aunt Bee (Frances Bavier), Clara Lindsey (Mary Treen), and the delightful Emma Brand (Cheerio Meredith) about all …

Whoopi: The Fat and the Frivolous is not a favorite outing of this series which stars the very colorful Whoopi Goldberg. Whoopi also developed this NBC series which aired during the 2003-2004 TV season. In the show, her character of Mavis Rae is a one time singer …

The CW series Supernatural will have you sitting on the edge of your seat with the combination of mystery and the evil spirits who are trying to stop the Winchester Brothers from finding their father. It may sound far fetched, but the stories are well written and when …

Downunder Horsemanship by Clinton Anderson is a great TV show. Clinton Anderson is an internationally recognized horse trainer and competitor. He is a native Australian and I just love his accent.

The most important element about Dragon at the Door, which was the third season premier of the western series, Laramie, is that it returned the show to its original premise just a tad. When Laramie debuted in 1959, it was a regular cast of four — John Smith, …

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 …

I have seen bits and pieces of the Family Guy episode “Mr. Saturday Knight” before. But last night was the first time I actually had a chance to watch the entire thing. And, overall, I think it was a pretty good episode.

Season 5 begins with M*A*S*H: Bug Out, a show that is full of rumors that the 4077th is bugging out due to an expected attack. At first, it’s believed that the news is nothing but exaggerations and rumors, but then the news comes that they will be bugging …

Being a sports lover and being active in different sports, I must say that, for me, Sports Unlimited is a gem of a TV program here in the Philippines.
It’s basically a TV show in ABS-CBN Channel 2 (a local broadcasting network) every Saturday, 12 am, which essentially covers different …
