From December 1962, the 13th show of the sixth season, Have Gun - Will Travel: Penelope was an average episode in my opinion.
This particular program opened in San Francisco with Col. Oliver Lacey as played by Lawrence Dobkin studying Paladin who is engaged in a solo game of chess.
Lacey …

As you would know from some of my reviews, I love movies. Tv series, sitcom, reality, you name it.
One of the series I like to watch is Ugly Betty. Note the term “like” other than “love” which I more often use to express my feelings for a …

I mentioned in my last review for The Fall Guy that one of the things that is ironic about this show is that it focuses on a stunt man and as a result we see some incredible stunts. At the same time, it’s not really fictional stunt man …

Hosted by Josh Gates of Destination Truth, Ghost Hunters’ 100th Episode was turned into a two hour event that included the investigation of Alcatraz, the famous penal island off the waters of the Pacific Ocean near San Francisco.

Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 8 is one of the most fascinating episodes I have ever seen out of all the episodes so far. It is titled the futures end part one and I cannot wait to watch part two tomorrow after seeing how the first part leaves …

Lady of the Lake was the 7th episode of the first season of Upright Citizens Brigade. It is also, to me, the weakest episode of the entire season. This is mainly due to the titular character, the Lady of the Lake: she just doesn’t work as a …

“A Mooch At The Boo” is the episode of Two And A Half Men originally airing on CBS on November 24, 2008. This was a great episode because it focused mostly on Jake. My wife and I love the Jake-centered episodes. The young actor who …

In the past, Mike Farrell, who plays B.J. Hunnicutt, has written some episodes and he’s directed one or two, but I believe M*A*S*H: War Co-Respondent is the first one that he both wrote and direct. It centers around guest star Susan St. James, who appears as Aggie O’Shea, …

The Jeffersons didn’t touch on serious subjects too often like the series it was spin-off from, namely All in the Family, but in the case of this episode, “Florence’s Problem”, it did try to explore a situation that wasn’t entirely comedy-themed, although the writers still manage to give characters …

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 …

The very funny and versatile Paul Lynde guest stars in this first season episode of the comedy That Girl called These Boots Weren’t Made for Walking. Essentially, this is a topic that is very current to our modern work — working for ourselves. Ann Marie (Marlo …

Whoever is broadcasting HPV commercials on television stations, deserves a metal as far as I am concerned. Because this disease is acutally a virus that when contracted, has the potential to cause cancer in women, I think that it is wonderful that there is being time devoted to …

I’m so sorry that Everybody Loves Raymond is no longer in production, but fortunately, we can see it in reruns practically every day of the week. The show never fails to make me laugh.
I think what is unusual about this show is that its humor is not really …

Season 2 of Stargate SG-1 opens with an emotional conclusion to the season-ending arc of the prior year. It’s a gripping tale that will bring tears to many, smiles to even more, and an absolutely wonderful ending that spawned the legendary Space Monkey.
Stargate SG-1: The Serpent’s Lair has …

The leftover remnants of Michael Shanks’ original story idea show up in this seventh season episode. Stargate SG-1: Resurrection is actually a bit of Hannibal Lecter meets the NID. It’s just not the type of story one would imagine Shanks writing, and it’s really not. It’s …

In M*A*S*H: Dear Uncle Abdul from season 8, it’s Corporal Max Klinger’s turn to write a letter home. As I’ve often said, I enjoy these letter home stories, but sometimes they aren’t allowed to complete themselves, and that’s the case here as well. I prefer it when …

Dexter is certainly not the sort of show I would think of ordinarily watching. As someone who isn’t keen on blood or gore at the best of times the last thing I would think of watching is something as macabre as this.
So what is it all about? Well, the …

This is one of the highlights of the series. It has that perfect blend of light hearted humor, silver age wackiness, and serious superheroism that makes any hero story worthwhile.

I was home sick yesterday and got a chance to watch some day-time programming that I don’t normally get to see. One of the shows I had a chance to watch (at least part of) was the re-make of Let’s Make a Deal.
Maybe it was because I wasn’t feeling …

The Twilight Zone: To Serve Man is in the top 5 of all episodes for —˜the best of the series’. It’s a well acted, well put together, and stunning story involving what might happen should Earth be the recipient of visitors from another planet.

I love this edition of Fireball XL5: 1875. Gerry Anderson, the creator of the series, just really amazes me at how he utilizes the puppets and builds stories around them like we’d find in any science fiction TV series. In this one, that genius Professor Matt Matic …

John Doe: Mind Games is a good little story that begins with a woman and a young boy showing up on John’s doorstep and announcing that he’s probably the boy’s father. It’s another variation of the sperm bank story, but a bit more complex than normal.
I was impressed …

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 …

A couple years before Max Headroom the TV series began, there was a short movie made of the subject matter that created a lot of industry buzz. Much of this Blipverts episode is derived from the plot and themes first scene in that attention-grabbing 1985 project.
The basic idea …
