Probe: Quit-It
Probe: Quit-It is the last episode of this scientific crime drama, and that was a shame. I really liked the relationship between the two stars, Parker Stevenson as Austin James and Ashley Crow as Michelle Castle. They were young and refreshing, and the way they solved crimes …
How I Met Your Mother: Woooo!
“Woooo!” is the episode of How I Met Your Mother originally airing on November 17, 2009, on CBS. This was a really solid episode. The actors on this show have really hit their stride as a group. It is just a level down from the chemistry …

I am very pleased, can’t really complain
I bought this TV on 01/23/11 to replace a 2-year old 52″ 120hz Sony LCD tv. To be honest I wasn’t really looking for a 3D tv I just wanted a 55″ LED tv with 240 Hz. But I couldn’t find a …
Divorce court (Reality Series)

Family Guy 10-1: Lottery Fever

The Virginian: The Awakening TV Show
As I understand it, Roberta Shore, who played Betsy Garth on The Virginian from the beginning, left the series to get married and retired from show business. In this fourth season, her character would be turning 20, so that’s definitely marrying age. I am very glad they …

Bones TV Episode: Aliens in a Spaceship

This proved to be a very …

MTV’s Engaged and Underage
I’ve recently been watching Engaged and Underage on MTV. On the show they profile a new couple each week that has gotten engaged, and is currently under the normal age for getting married. I’m not exactly sure what the actual “normal” age is for getting married.
Some of the kids …

Tales of the Gold Monkey: Legends Are Forever

Stargate: Infinity: The Look TV Show
The message of Stargate: Infinity: The Look could probably be gleaned from its title. Remembering that this animated series was designed for the children watching, the moral of the tale is that clothes and accessories don’t make the person,.
The first part of the lesson comes when Harrison …
Chopped (reality competition)
This is a really interesting show in that it’s very quick. The contestants come in, and one of them is “chopped” after each course until one is left standing. This cooking show is great because there is a time element at each stage. There is …

PBS KIDS Channel
TV is a all time favourite for everyone. But watching today’s shows with family is not a good idea. There are lot of shows that are not kid friendly and have a negative impact on kids. Not every channel has kids programmes and there is nothing much for toddlers to …
The Twilight Zone: An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge TV Show
After years upon years of watching The Twilight Zone, there are maybe two or three that don’t immediately pop out at me where I don’t instantly know the story when it comes on TV. An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge from season five is one of those. …
The X-Files: 4-D

Shaw Digital TV in Surrey, Canada

So I went to the Shaw Cable office which …
Stargate SG1: Tin Man
Tin Man was one of the worst episodes of Season One. It revolved around the fact that SG1, while visiting a planet, is knocked out and turned into robots.
When they first wake up they don’t realize that anything is wrong. Harlan, the annoying little man …
That Girl: They Shoot Pictures, Don’t They?
The first and most noticeable thing about That Girl: They Shoot Pictures, Don’t They? is that Bernie Kopell has also gone mod, which is something I’ve commented on with season four of That Girl. As of this episode, Kopell’s Jerry Bauman has long, extended sideburns and he has …
Secret Millionaire TV show
Last December 2008, I saw this reality Television show on Fox. It is entitled Secret Millionaire. It was just very timely then. The show can inspire people to share more during the holidays, no matter how bad the economy may be. Every episode I watch, my heart goes for our …
Virgin Media Digital V-Box (and Remote Control)

Law and Order Special Victims Unit “Slaves” Episode
I can’t say that this was one of the best Law and Order SVU Episodes I had watched, but I still liked it and learned quite a bit from it like I have learned from a lot of the other episodes. I am not sure if the episode “Slaves” …
M*A*S*H: Kim
I’d forgotten about M*A*S*H: Kim, but it’s actually one of the most endearing episodes of the entire series. It’s a show that lets Wayne Rogers be the standout, something that really didn’t happen all that often. The Kim episode gives his Trapper John McIntyre character depth as …
Alan Carr Chatty Man
Alan Carr: Chatty Man is a pretty good show that is usually worth watching. Alan Carr has grown on me since he branched out with this, his own chat show, and I think he is a very funny guy. He will not mind me saying that he …

M*A*S*H: Say No More focuses on a wounded soldier at the 4077th. This brings the soldier’s father to the camp. General Addison Collins, played John Anderson, is gung-ho military. He’s everything that Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda) detests, and one thing Hawkeye can’t stand is watching General …
That 70s Show TV Episode: We Will Rock You
I don’t normally like the later episodes of That 70s Show; mostly because I can’t stand Donna’s replacement boyfriend (after Topher Grace left the series). But, I do like the episode that was on last night; We Will Rock You.
Basically, there are two main stories to this one. First, …
Fireball XL5: Sabotage
Gerry Anderson really knew his stuff with the puppets. In Fireball XL5: Sabotage, he continued to pioneer the craft. This is one of 39 episodes that aired, Sabotage showing on American television in 1963. As so many of the half-hour black and white episodes do, there …

King of the Lost World
I have no idea why I decided to watch King of the Lost World on the Science Fiction channel last night, probably because there wasn’t much on. However, I have to say it was one of the stupidest movies I’ve ever seen.
When I watched King of the Lost World, …
