Touching Evil: Y Me
Bruce Willis is the man behind the American adaptation of this British TV show called Touching Evil. It’s strange and oddly compelling, but if you blink, you’ll liable to miss something important.
Jeffrey Donovan does a great job as Creegan, the quirky detective who responds differently to the world …
Fireball XL5: Drama at Space City
I definitely have a few thoughts related to Fireball XL5: Drama at Space City. This episode has Steve and Venus going off on vacation, leaving Zoonie to stay with Jonathan Zero, the son of Commander Zero. Meanwhile, Professor Matt Matic takes the relaxation pills that Venus prescribed …
Supernatural 4.17 It’s a Terrible Life
I’ve maintained for some time that Supernatural is one of the best shows on TV. It’s up there with Venture Bros. for me. This episode was a fine example for that. It was funny, had great character moments as well as being creepy.
It was a …
Two And A Half Men: The OCU Or The PADO
“The OCU Or The PADO” is the episode of Two And A Half Men originally airing on CBS on March 9, 2009. This was another mediocre episode that marks the downhill slide of this once consistently funny program.
Pros: There were a few funny lines. Alan’s question to …

The Vampire Diaries
When I heard about the fact that the CW was making a show about the book series by LJ Smith - The Vampire Diaries I was excited. I read these books as a child and loved them. I was anticipating what the CW was going to do …
The Twilight Zone: Cavender Is Coming TV Show
This show is a reworking of a previous Twilight Zone that starred Orson Bean. While I enjoy and watch that other episode, Cavender Is Coming is actually much better. From season three, it’s Carol Burnett the show centers on. Like Bean’s earlier character, Burnett’s Agnes Grep …
Lost TV programme
I hate this programme! It frustrates the hell out of me and I am soo glad I can rant about it on this website! It just doesnt make sense. Polar bears??? People living underground and everyone having past lives that are somehow interlinked.
I switch over every time it comes …
Fallen movie
I have seen a lot of movies and television series about how good triumphs over evil, but this one takes that game to a higher level. What will you do if you discovered that your friend is an angel who have been sent from heaven to make sinners atone …
That Girl: I Didn’t Have the Vegas Notion Part 1
It’s another two-part episode for this hit comedy series. That Girl: I Didn’t Have the Vegas Notion Part 1 has Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) co-starring in a play in Las Vegas, so Don Hollinger (Ted Bessell) goes with her for the opening night. It starts out with …
That 70s Show: The First Time
Once again, I came across another That 70s Show re-run I haven’t seen before, the episode called “The First Time.”
Of course, by the title, you really have no idea what is going on. As it turns out, it’s about Bob and Midge deciding to renew their wedding vows after …
Empire (TV Series)
Empire is a drama TV series created by Lee Daniels and Danny Strong. It’s about the music industry and features characters with that from the bottom to the top life story. If you saw and liked Eminem’s 8 Mile or 50 Cent’s Get Rich or Die Tryin’, you’ll love this …
Eureka TV show
I went out with several friends ones and they started talking about a TV show called Eureka. I thought it was just another SciFi show that wasn’t going to have a long life, but as I saw it already has 3 seasons, although 8 to 12 episode ones, and …
Family Guy: The Story on Page 1
We were watching a Family Guy re-run last night, The Story on Page 1 and I have to say it, it is easily the funniest episode I have seen both of this series and quite a few others I can think of.
To be honest, I’m not even really sure …
Hawaii Five-O: Strangers in Our Own Land
“Look at that. One day we’ll be strangers in our own land.”
That’s actually the last line of this episode of Hawaii Five-O called, appropriately enough, Strangers in Our Own Land. It all has to do with development and protecting the land. It begins with the murder …
The Prisoner: The Schizoid Man
The Prisoner: The Schizoid Man has an interesting premise. Patrick McGoohan’s Number Six character wakes up to discover he is now Number Twelve, complete with a mustache (which doesn’t suit him at all, I might add). This is followed by the news that he’s supposed to switch …
Spongebob Squarepants:Big Pink Loser
Because of my daughter, I have seen almost every episode of SpongeBob SquarePants. The one episode I�ve seen a dozen times and still find hilarious is Big Pink Loser.
This episode focuses on Patrick, (Spongebob�s Starfish friend) and how he is upset about never winning an award. And, he gets …
The Andy Griffith Show: Opie’s Hobo Friend TV Show
From November 1961, The Andy Griffith Show: Opie’s Hobo Friend had a superb guest star. Buddy Ebsen appeared as David Browne, a hobo who is befriended by Opie Taylor (Ron Howard).
Ebsen’s laid back manor and easy going acting ability really sells the audience on Browne being a hobo. …
Jeremiah: Things Left Unsaid: Part 1
The first season of Jeremiah heads to its conclusion with a two part episode in which the action begins with Jeremiah (Luke Perry) realizing that someone ripped out a page from Simon’s journal. Simon is the person who told him about Thunder Mountain, and he and partner, Kurdy …
Law and Order SVU
Law and Order SVU is a very depressing show at times, but the acting is superb. There are a few things that I don’t like about the show but overall it is one of my favorite shows on TV. One of the main issues that the show has is …
Stargate Atlantis: Identity
The 18th episode of this last season of the series, Stargate Atlantis: Identity, gives us a strange-acting Jennifer Keller. The good doctor just isn’t acting like herself. Of course, we the viewers get a clue from the beginning, since it’s a different actress everyone thinks it’s Jennifer …
Golden Girls
Recently I have been watching The Golden girls on lifetime. It’s one of the funniest shows I have seen on television. I love the show and it’s one of my favorites. They all have there own personalities and I really enjoy watching the show. All of the girls are …
Sea Hunt: Cindy TV Show
From its third year of televising, Sea Hunt presented a show called Cindy, which was the 18th to air. The show was all about the attempts to rescue a little girl who has managed to get trapped inside an underwater mine.
One of the unusual aspects of this show …
The Twilight Zone: The Trouble with Templeton TV Show
The Twilight Zone: The Trouble with Templeton is another one of the many shows where a person finds solace in their past. Sometimes these outings end up positively and sometimes not. I like this one because it comes with a bit of a message that is …
CHiPs: Crash Diet
One of the things that made the news a lot back in 1970’s was the existence of nudist camps. This comes to play in CHiPs: Crash Diet when a van driven by a man but full of naked women are pulled over by Jon and Ponch. One …
The Good Life Series 3 Episode 7 The Last Posh Frock
‘The Last Posh Frock’ is the last (seventh) episode of Series three of The Good Life and it is a very enjoyable one. Barbara (Felicity Kendal) feels she has lost her femininity since she gave up her posh frocks for the jeans and dungarees more appropriate for their …
Max Headroom: Lessons TV show
The topic of Max Headroom: Lessons has to do in part with censorship, including the use of profanity. Now that’s a still relevant issue that continues to be controversial in our true reality.
This half-hour program, which to me is both a comedy and a drama due its mix …
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 …
NCIS: About Face
“About Face” was a great episode for anyone who loves the character of Jimmy Palmer played by the wonderful Brian Dietzen.
We viewers don’t often get a chance to see much of Jimmy as he is always stuck in the morgue. However, in this episode, we got to see …
Chasing Mummies: Robbed TV Show
Chasing Mummies: Robbed go right to the action with the famous archaeologist, Zahi Hawass, making a discovery of a previously unearthed sarcophagus with a mummy inside of it. I do enjoy the history that I learn from this show, and actually, I like watching to see how the …
Iron Chef TV show
The Japanese show “The Iron Chef” has become so widely popular that it has even spawned an American version that has contributed greatly to the Food Network’s success. I won’t dwell on the American version, but rather on the original dubbed over Japanese version of the show, which …
‘Say Yes to the Dress’ on TLC
Since I am getting married in a year I am addicted to watching any kind of wedding show on TV. Lately I love ‘Say Yes to the Dress’, even though it appears to be on reruns. I like seeing it from the point of view of the sales people …

The Real Ghostbusters: Season 1, Episode 57: Janine’s Day Off
Janine finally gets some vacation time, and uses it to bring Egon to meet her folks. I know that she’s crushing on Egon, but this seems to imply that they are in a bona fide relationship. Egon even says that he’s not ready to meet her folks. …
Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader?
I never thought that I would one day be watching “Are You Smarter than Fifth Grader?” This show is quite clever. I like the concept. And truly the kids featured on this show are really smart. But then again, if they really are in the …
Mad Hungry with Lucinda Scala Quinn: Easy Chicken Menu TV Show
Mad Hungry with Lucinda Scala Quinn: Easy Chicken Menu included Quinn’s 23 year old son, Calder. He’s been on this cooking show several times before, but this is the first one to my knowledge where he’s been on it from start to finish. Frankly, it’s a good …
TV Show: Stolen Voices Buried Secrets
Television Show Description: The story of real-life murder victims and their investigations is told using both witness testimony and narration from the “victim.”
What I liked about this show: I have always been a huge mystery fan and I love the fact this show brings real-life drama to life by …
Soul Train television show (1970s version)
One of my parents’ favourite television shows in the seventies, was a show called “Soul Train”. I heard them talking about the show from time to time over the years, but never actually got a chance to view it for myself until one Saturday years ago, when a certain …
Highlander/The Source
This was not the Highlander we all know and love. The Duncan in this movie was dark and brooding and unsure of himself. The movie was choppy-it didn’t have a good flow. There wasn’t much information about the characters and how they all came together. It didn’t …
Have Gun - Will Travel: A Knight to Remember TV Show
Have Gun - Will Travel: A Knight to Remember from December 1961 has one of the fun openings that I really get a kick out of seeing. In the gambit, Paladin, played by Richard Boone, is fencing. He’s showing off a bit for a young lady, who …
The Office: Crime Aid
“Crime Aid” is the forth episode of this season of The Office on NBC. This was a very funny episode and I enjoyed it a lot! All the characers were ‘on’ in this episode and Michael was even crazier than normal.
I liked the growing relationship between Holly …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Unforgiving Minute TV Show
Have Gun - Will Travel: Unforgiving Minute, episode 20 of season six of the Richard Boone western series, does not have my beloved introduction that takes place in San Francisco. I’m not sure how many shows in this year were without them, but from what I’ve seen in …
The Virginian: Say Goodbye to All That
The Virginian: Say Goodbye to All That just did nothing for me. It’s one of the reasons why I didn’t watch this series originally. It left me cold. I really didn’t get all the nuances. Maybe I blinked and missed something important and didn’t realize …
That Girl: Those Friars
The plot of That Girl: Those Friars really doesn’t matter. What does matter is the joy of seeing Danny Thomas guest starring on his daughter’s highly successful TV series. He’d done a cameo on an earlier episode that was just delightful, but this part was a little …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Screaming Woman TV Show
The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Screaming Woman opens for the second time with a introductory scene that is actually a bit of an adventure with Bradbury in the mountains holding a divining rod. Another man comes up to him, recognizing him as a sci fi writer. In …
Star Trek: How Sharper Than a Serpent’s Tooth TV Show
This is a really intriguing episode of the 1974 animated series which continued to voyages of the starship, Enterprise. In Star Trek: How Sharper Than a Serpent’s Tooth, a ship or object threatens the Enterprise; that is, until Ensign Walking Bear (voiced by James Doohan) calls out its …
Bones: The Princess and the Pear
For the most part, I like the show Bones. But, some episodes, like this week’s “the Princess and the Pear” tend to be a bit too dumb to be enjoyable.
This one decided to focus on the fantasy world many people enjoy living in. People who attend comic book conventions, …
The Office Season 3
The third season of The Office isn’t my favorite season of the show, but I think it’s pretty good and it has some truly funny scenes. I didn’t like it enough to buy it when it first came out on DVD, but I liked it enough to buy it …
Ghost Hunters TV Episode: Pennsylvania Asylum
Synopsis: The TAPS team unveils their new van as they travel to Pennsylvania to investigate Penhurst Asylum (shut down in 1986 for abusing the inmates).
