Stargate SG-1: Within the Serpent’s Grasp is the last episode of season 1, the end of the 3-story season-ending arc, and the first of the 2-part cliffhanger. That’s a lot of show!

Sister Wives TV show
Normally I hate Reality TV. To me, it screams of TV producers throwing their arms up and saying “Everything’s been done. We don’t know what else to do”. However, Sister Wives is a pleasant change in the whole Reality TV scene.
Here we have a slight reminder of wholesome …
Stargate: Infinity: Stones TV Show

MASH: Requiem for a Lightweight

This is the episode that features Trapper getting involved in a boxing match with a giant sergeant from another MASH unit in an effort to …
Battle 360 History Channel
“Battle 360″ is a TV show displayed on the History Channel every Friday night at 10 Eastern. It is a nearly commercial-free look at the history of the USS Enterprise (a carrier) in the second World War. It is, of course geared towards history-buffs, but I believe that even …

Friends Episode featuring Winona Ryder
Have you ever watched Friends Episode featuring Winona Ryder? I must say that Winona’s acting in this episode is pretty convincing for a so-called indirect lesbian.
Of course, during the first part of the scene episode, when you watch, you would not realize that she is a lesbian and …
Due South: Dead Men Don’t Throw Rice
Due South: Dead Men Don’t Throw Rice was a somewhat strange episode that was still oddly fascinating. In the course of working on a case and trying to find out information on the crime and wrongdoers, Canadian Constable Benton Fraser, played by Paul Gross who is also the …
Jon & Kate Plus 8 (TLC program)
My mother told me about this show and suggested that I watch it. The concept of a woman giving birth to sextuplets is fascinating in and of itself. Giving birth to more than four babies at once is fascinating. But this show takes things …
House TV Show
A few years ago, I ended up almost accidentally watching the show House when it first came on the air. And, I immediately fell in love with it.
I don’t normally like medical dramas (I never saw an episode of ER) but this one was something different because it was …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Winchester Quarantine

Dead Like Me: A Cook
I just hate stories that have animals in them because I worry about what will happen to the animal. It’s all fiction, I realize, but in the ‘it’s just TV’ world, I can deal with anything that happens to a human being because it’s by choice, but I …
That Girl: I Am Curious Lemon
In That Girl: I Am Curious Lemon, Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) takes care of her cousin’s daughter for a week. The young girl’s name is Caroline, and she’s played by Cindy Eilbacher. I first remember seeing Eilbacher with her sister, Lisa, in an episode of Alias Smith …

The Twilight Zone: The Chaser TV Show
The Twilight Zone: The Chaser is an okay outing for this science fiction series. I don’t particularly love it, but I don’t dislike it, either. It’s one of the few roles I can somewhat tolerate John McIntire in. He plays a mysterious professor who sales …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Veldt TV Show
Ray Bradbury writes a lot about humans becoming too caught up in technology. I’ve noticed that theme in several stories and it’s here in The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Veldt as well. This is all about relying too much on electronics and letting go of relationships and …
Washington Journal TV show (C-Span)

Stargate SG1: The Other Side
“The Other Side” is definitely one of the Stargate SG1 episodes that really makes you think. It is also one that shows the big difference between Daniel’s priorities and those of the rest of the team.
When Alar, the leader of Uronda, gets in touch with the SGC and …
Justice League Unlimited Season One: This Little Piggy
This Little Piggy is the sixth episode of season one of Justice League Unlimited. The first 90% of the episode is really bad. Wonder Woman is turned into a pig and the Justice League has to find her before she is turned into bacon, literally.
It was nice …
Big Bang Theory - The Terminator Decoupling
“The Terminator Decoupling” is the episode of The Big Bang Theory originally airing on CBS on March 9, 2009. This episode was saved by great chemistry (over the telephone) between Sheldon and Penny. The rest of the episode was light on laughs.
Pros: Sheldon was featured in …

52nd Grammy Awards

I wasn’t impressed by …
Stargate SG-1: Urgo
For the ultimate in SG-1 humor, Stargate SG-1: Urgo is the place to go. This season three episode guest starred the comedic genius of Dom Deluise in the role of Urgo. Dom Deluise has been around for decades, and he’s a very funny man. He’s done …

Adam-12: The Princess and the Pig
I have conflicting emotions over Adam-12: The Princess and the Pig, a season four episode from this half-hour police drama, courtesy of Jack Webb. The reason for the conflict is that Officer Jim Reed (Kent McCord) ends up going undercover. It’s just another sign of how he …
Mr. Monk on Wheels
I wasn’t sure what to expect from tonight’s Monk episode “Mr. Monk on Wheels.” After all, getting a detective with all sorts of emotional problems shot while on a case has a lot of ways the episode could go and not all of them are good ones.
However, tonight’s episode …

That Girl: Stag Party
The wedding between Ann and Don is getting closer with the advent of Don’s stag party. We actually never get to see the wedding, and the shows after this just mention the upcoming nuptials. As always, Marlo Thomas and Ted Bessell are just superb in their portrayals.
In …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Two Plus One
Two Plus One was the 30th episode of the sixth season of Have Gun - Will Travel. I miss TV seasons with that many episodes, and this wasn’t even the last one. We don’t get a San Francisco opening unfortunately. Rather, we see Paladin (Richard Boone) …
CSI Season 10 Episode 1
I stopped watching CSI for a long time, although I had always been an avid fan. It was just that I had not much chance to watch TV with all the writing I was doing. So I guess I felt lucky to have been able to catch this …
Orange is The New Black, TV Show
Netflix is the best thing that could’ve happen to TV shows… and to us! Its plan of just giving us all the episodes at once is genius and with these project I think they’ve gotten even more popularity. This time, the creator of Weeds was the one chosen to bring …
Beast Wars - Equal Measures
Beast Wars - Equal Measures is an episode that I like on some levels, but dislike on others. First, the good. Terrorsaur gets some, not a lot, but some development in this episode and the viewer learns that he has ambitious goals of his own and a duplicitous streak …
The Sing-Off: Night One
Recently, NBC hosted a four-part program hosted by Nick Lachey where different amateur acapella groups performed. These groups had to essentially sing and make their own music. In other words, it had to sound like there was a band, when there really wasn’t.
The show was a variation …
Highway Patrol: Hired Killer TV Show
From June 1957, Highway Patrol: Hired Killer was one of the last episodes of the police drama’s second season to air. It was definitely watchable, if only for the curiosity about the title character, the unnamed killer.
Len Hendry played a hired gun who shows up to take down …
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Bostonian
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Bostonian was a waste of viewing time in my book. I just felt like I’d seen versions of this tale many times, not the least of which were in other episodes of this western series. What amazes me is that it …
Bones : The Doctor in the Den
Synopsis: Human remains found half eaten by a tiger belong to Cam’s former fiancé and Brennan and Booth need to find out who murdered him.
What I liked about this episode: It was good seeing someone other than Brennan investigating a case; though I’m not a huge fan of Cam. …
Highway Patrol: Nitro TV Show
Highway Patrol: Nitro is in my mind one of the worst outings for this series, but let me start with a humorous part of it.
The funniest thing about this show was a couple of lines between two men who are transporting nitroglycerin. The one man tells the other …
The Twilight Zone: The New Exhibit TV Show
The Twilight Zone: The New Exhibit is a creepy show from 1963. It’s about a rather docile man who works for a wax museum. He becomes anxious when the museum closes and his most prized wax figures are in danger of being destroyed. Ultimately, the owner …
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 …
