The Simpsons: Dangerous Curves
Tonight was the first time I’ve seen the Simpsons episode Dangerous Curves and I have to say it was one of the more interesting episodes I’ve seen.
Basically, this episode gave us some insight into Homer and Marge’s past; both before she became pregnant and they got married and a …
Oprah Show
Oprah Winfrey is one of the most success TV personalities out there. Some are even glad to give her the status of a goddess. She definitely knows how to push the boundaries in her show. The show has several topics which are related to the American life. Rarely does she …
Roseanne Season Six
I really liked season 6 of Roseanne because it was funny and it brought back some of my favorite characters. Mark and Becky came back and ended up moving in with the Conner family. A lot of people hated Sarah Chalke as Becky, but I really liked her. I …
Medium show
If TV shows were food, then Medium would be my comfort food-the pizza or the ice cream or the well buttered popcorn. Medium tells the story of a woman- a wife and a stay at home mom to three girls, who had decided to come work for the state …
Avatar: The Last Airbender: Book 1, Episode 16: The Deserter
The group comes across a sign advertising a fire festival. Sokka is skeptical, but Aang sees it as a rare opportunity to learn some firebending. Katara agrees, though she thinks that they should wear disguises. I was hoping this would result in the return of Aang’s …

The show Dancing with the stars is a really innovative idea for a talent show. It displays dancing talent of stars that are not dancers. But by the end of the show you wonder why they dont become one. Everyone becomes a professional dancer. You …
The Dick Van Dyke Show - The Complete First Season (DVD Season Set)
“The Dick Van Dyke Show” is one of the rarer classic sitcoms when it comes to finding the television show on television stations. Fortunately, Image Entertainment has released all the seasons to DVD and boy did they ever do a fine job treating this classic television show with the …
The Next Iron Chef: Innovation TV Show

Ghost Hunters: Altoona, PA
I didn’t watch Ghost Hunters at the beginning of its run about five years ago, but I have watched off and on for the last couple of years. They tend to go to a lot of old places that have reported haunts or mysterious happenings. One of …
Stargate SG-1: Cor-ai
Continuing on with season one of Stargate SG-1, the episode entitled Cor-ai has some fine moments in it.
The one thing that has always confused me about this episode, though, is just why Jack O’Neill is so snarky with Daniel Jackson. The two, along with Sam Carter, spend the …
Trinity Blood episode 11
A swift kiss, from lady death herself. This is “From the Empire” with love, Trinity blood episode eleven. The first thing you need to know, this is basically a James Bond episode focused more on teamwork, than cool gadgets or suave moves. Although they had those too, don’t get …
According to Jim Shows
In my quest for a new tv show to watch I have come upon a new show that I like with one of the Belushi brothers in it. The show is witty and a bit flaky but always has a nice ending with some sort of emotional twist or …
M*A*S*H: Rumor at the Top
Nicholas Pryor guest stars as Major Nathaniel Burnham in M*A*S*H: Rumor at the Top from season ten. This is one of those shows that proves the old adage that assumptions are dangerous. They call it a rumor, but it begins with an assumption.
It comes down the line …
Cowboy Bebop Episode 20 (Anime)
Cowboy Bebop Episode 20 has Spike trying to evade master assassin Mad Pierrot after he sees the man commit a murder.
This episode was fantastic; it had everything that makes Cowboy Bebop a great anime to watch. The action was top notch and the gunfights were awesome. It …
Telus Digital Cable
After using Shaw Digital Cable for the past year, we were offered a great rate to switch to Telus Digital Cable. Seeing as our phone, long distance and internet are already contracted onto Telus for another three years, we decided to add the Digital Cable package as well.
So far, …
Pokemon (TV Show) - Mystery at the Lighthouse (Episode)
“Mystery at the Lighthouse” is an episode of the “Pokemon” television series. In some ways, this episode is reminiscent of a previous episode, “Clefairy and the Moonstone” in that it deals with some of the mysterious of the Pokemon world. Both episodes have a certain mysterious aire to them …
Once Upon A Time TV Series
Every Sunday I have to be front and center at eight o’ clock on ABC. Why? Because the television series Once Upon A Time airs during that time.
I think I was like everyone else who loved the promo for the new series, but was not sure how to …
Koffee with Anu

HI-Jinks! TV Show
This show started it’s first season on NICK @ Nite, in the Summer of 2005.
It was decently funny, but got old fairly quick.
The point was to have parents prank their kids with the help of the host (Layla Spettanni), and at the end, they would have a celebrity …
The X-Files: Season 3, Episode 3: D.P.O
With the agents back on the X-Files, they dive back into rhythm with a monster of the week case. After the huge three parter that came before it, you might think that this would pale in comparison, but it is actually a very well put together episode that …
Walking Dead TV series
I really like horror movies and this particular genre about zombies is also really interesting to me. Having this in mind I became interested in the show mainly because of the storyline which is about a group of survivors from a zombie apocalypse …
Outlaw: Pilot TV Show
The dramatic pilot to Jimmy Smits’ new TV series was somewhat interesting. For me, one of the reasons that Smits’ character of Cyrus Garza works is because he lets himself be a bit older here. I haven’t really liked the younger swag characters that he’s played since …
Whoopi: Identity Crisis TV Show
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 …

‘The Wright Show’ is a live show every week day morning on Channel 5 and presented by ex-tabloid journalist, Matthew Wright. Every day there are different celebrities on the ‘panel’ and basically they discuss different hot topics of debate, from the frivolous to the serious, and make comments …
Stargate SG-1: Disclosure
Once every season as a rule, there is a clip show done on Stargate SG-1 which essentially saves on money. It’s a filler show, with little new action. Stargate SG-1: Disclosure was the season 6 clip show, and in this case, the only regular cast member to …
The Beast Wars - Part One
The Beast Wars - Part One is the first part of the season premier. As a part of the season one premier, it does do what it is supposed to do and it does it well: it introduces the characters and lays out the plot of the series. I …
Monster Episode 7

Medium: It’s a Wonderful Death TV Show
Medium: It’s a Wonderful Death is another show that had a very nice season ender. The show narrowly escaped cancellation, or so it’s believed as of this writing. Actually, while I like this show, one thing I’ve consistently thought about it is that Patricia Arquette’s character of …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Real Me
Well, it took 5 seasons but Buffy the Vampire Slayer finally has a sister (I say that because most shows try to mix things up a bit by adding another character through a pregnancy; usually a sibling). But, the interesting thing about the episode “Real Me” is the sister …
Friends TV show - The one where Joey tells Rachel
Joey has been having a lot of feelings for Rachel, and after talking to Ross about how he truly feels about her, he decides that it is finally time to tell her about how he truly feels. He knows that it is going to be a really hard thing …
X Files TV Show
Whenever I am bored and in the mood for some noncommittal but somewhat thoughtful entertainment, I turn to my trusty X-Files. Although it has gone off the air nine years ago, there are nine seasons and countless episodes of this old favorite classic to wile away the dull hours. …
Married with Children TV Episode: Married Without Children
Synopsis: Peggy and Al decide to take a romantic vacation and Marcy and Steve agree to watch their kids as practice for when they become parents.
What I liked about this episode: Well, one of the big things was Al’s decision to agree to the romantic getaway simply because there …
Prison Break Season 2 Episode 15- The Message
Oh, how easily things get complicated on this show. That is nerve wrecking and fantastic. On one hand you just want this nightmare to be over, on the other, you don’t want their troubles to ever stop.
After making their escape from the motel and kidnapping the cameraman, Michael, Lincoln …
House: Not Cancer
OK, not only was the lastest episode of House “Not Cancer,” entertaining, it had to be one of the grossest episodes I’ve seen recently; a good combination for network television.
This episode was interesting because you have a series of people dying after receiving an organ transplant from the same …
Encantadia
Encantadia is a fantasy tv series. It is all about four sisters who are in the kingdom named Encantadia. The inhabitants of this place are called Encantados. They are not humans but instead they are somewhat like fairies but only the royal blooded ones are the ones who possess …
Harper’s Island Season 1 Episode 10
I watched with my boyfriend Harper’s Island Season 1 Episode 10 and even he went screaming when something happened to the Sheriff. Not going to say exactly what, but it was a sad episode for Abby. Very sad, indeed.
I really have come to hate the killer …
Dirty Jobs (Discovery Channel TV show)
I happened to catch an episode of this show when the host teamed up with a group of pestilence control workers. These guys wore daunting looking black T-shirts and tackled the worst jobs you could think of. The episode I caught featured a home that was …
Secret Life of The American Teenager
The Secret life of the American Teenager focuses on a fifteen year old Amy who has a one night stand with a drummer at band camp and winds up pregnant.
Good concept, it’s new to bring a teen pregnancy into the spotlight and approach it with a little humour as …

What I liked about this episode: Well, for one, Deschanel is …
The Amazing Race: S17, Ep 4 TV Show
What I loved about this fourth episode of The Amazing Race’s 17th season is that it showed the teams giving back a little by helping to renovate an elementary school. Survivor started giving back years ago, so why it’s taken The Amazing Race so long to realize that …
That Girl: The Russians Are Staying
That Girl: The Russians Are Staying from the fifth season of this pure comedy series is the last one of the series that leaves me a little vacant. I found the plot about a Russian comedian named Nicholai (Bob Dishy) to be too stereotypical and it simply wasn’t …
Cover Her Face - Part 3
Cover Her Face, Part 3, moves this P.D. James murder mystery along significantly. One of the things I like about this particular outing, though, is that the storyline is much easier to follow than those in later outings. I felt that way about The Black Tower, too. …
Gilligan’s Island - Will the Real Mr. Howel Please Stand Up TV Show
This episode is one of the least favorites of mine. I really can’t stand how the imposter Mr. Howell goes around trying to destroy Mr. Howell’s empire. Mr. Howell has a real challenge playing two different personalities, two different characters, one his usual caring self and the other a …
America’s Next Top Model: Zac Posen TV Show
The latest episode of America’s Next Top Model featured designer Zac Posen as an active participant and then judge for the aspiring models. Zac talked to the girls about their next runway show the next night when they will be modeling his line, which was a huge honor, …
NCIS: Missing
Two of my favorite NCIS episodes back to back. We go from “Dead Man Talking,” to “Missing,” which was a wonderful episode.
This case was full of twists and turns…the kind that makes NCIS the number one drama on television today. A navy man goes missing and it …
