Showbiz Tonight
Like Entertainment Tonight, Showbiz Tonight is a show that started nicely years ago, but has now undergone format, tone, and personnel changes that just don’t go over well with me. This show is like a tabloid on steroids. It’s non-stop hype that annoys, and it’s very repetitive.
There …
Survivor: Philippines
This is how animal human can be in order to survive. Of course, “human” can just be a word to describe creatures more animal than animals.

Jeremiah: Things Left Unsaid: Part 2
Jeremiah: Things Left Unsaid: Part 2 is the season-ending episode for Jeremiah, a surprisingly good science fiction series that starred Luke Perry and Malcolm-Jamal Warner. Neither of these two are favorites of mine, and when I began watching the DVD set that a friend gave me, I was …

Space Force, TV series (2020)
It’s funny to see how the Chinese have become the main rivals of the Americans instead of the Russians. They are ruining American satellites and squeezing a piece of land on the moon. That’s me talking about the Space Force series.

The Middle show
The Middle is a new show on ABC this fall. At the time of this writing, there have been six episodes shown. I have seen every one so far - some multiple times - so I think I have a good enough idea to write this review so far.

Stargate SG-1: Spirits
Love it, love it, love it! That’s how I describe my feelings towards Stargate SG-1: Spirits. This second season episode doesn’t get a lot of acclaim, but it’s been a hit with me from the first time I saw it.
The opening scene catches us off guard with …

NCIS: Jurisdiction Season 7, Episode 18
“Jurisdiction” is one of the better episodes of Season 7. Diane Neal of “Law And Order SVU” played Abigail Borin, a CGIS agent who was very much like Gibbs. Yes, she does the infamous ‘Gibbs slap’. Yes, she does not believe in coincidences. Yes, she …

Alias Smith and Jones: Return to Devil’s Hole

Running Wilde: Pilot TV Show
I watched the pilot for Running Wilde just to say that I’m giving some of the new comedies a chance. I really don’t like today’s sitcoms. They are rude and crude and so off color that they make me cringe. I’m much more into the traditional …
