Dexter Season 1 Episode 3 (Popping Cherry)
Episode Three of Dexter was really fun, just like the previous two. The show is so well written that I don’t think there is ever going to be a bad review of an episode. This episode for a little different, since we got to see a bit more of …
Stargate SG-1: Avalon Part 1
Stargate SG-1: Avalon Part 1 is just a sad beginning of the end for this TV favorite. The last two seasons are just not the SG-1 that I love. The introduction of Vala to the cast for the first several episodes is just atrocious, and the shifting …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV Show)
I completely forgot about this television series until I saw it going on again, and I tried to start watching it again to catch up on all that I had missed, but I just could not bring myself to continue watching it, since I thought that the television show …

Prison Break Season 1 Episode 18 Bluff

Have Gun - Will Travel: Bob Wire TV Show

Buck Rogers - Awakening Parts 1 and 2
As much as I love the old BUCK ROGERS IN THE 25th CENTURY series, I have to say the pilot is awful. Shockingly, this pilot received a theatrical release! Then again, STAR WARS, STAR TREK and MOONRAKER did huge business so another sci-fi film wouldn’t hurt. Anyway, we are …

Angel is one of my most favorite TV shows. Not only is it entertaining, but it also proves to be very addictive. No matter how many episodes I watched of it, it seems like I can never get enough. The characters are very unique and very appealing, and some …
American Idol
OK I used to hate American Idol. I think this show is just really a way to make someone famous, and have record labels ready to sell their music to the masses. And since the viewers get emotionally close to certain artists they will go out and buy their CD …

Basically, the main story in this one …
Stargate: Infinity: The Natural TV Show

The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Haunting of the New TV Show
File this one under weird and move on to the next. Actually, to be honest, The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Haunting of the New isn’t the worst of these that I’ve seen, but at the same time, this episode from the science fiction series third year is …
