Project Runway: Finale Part 2 TV Show
The second part of the finale for this season’s edition of Project Runway was both boring and exciting. It entertained and blahed. The reason? Well, in my opinion, I think it had too much time allotted to it. It was a full 2 hours and just …
The Simpsons Season 4 Episode 5 Treehouse Of Horror 5
All the kids are assembled at The Simpsons house for a Halloween party. Marge begins to tell a story, in the dark, passing edible stuff and saying that this is a witch’s organs. Homer ruins it by eating the parts. Lisa then begins to tell a scary story about …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: A Miracle of Rare Device TV Show
From July 1989, The Ray Bradbury Theater: A Miracle of Rare Device is actually a pretty interesting story, though there are elements that I’m not as fond of. What happens is that two men, disheveled and obviously down on their luck, are traveling along a desert highway …
The Real Ghostbusters: Season 1, Episode 56: Masquerade
The synopsis for this episode filled me with dread. If there’s one concept in this show more loathed than Slimer, it’s the Junior Ghostbusters and this is the episode that plants the seed for that concept. I was all ready to hate this episode and bash on …
Star Trek: Elaan of Troyius TV Show
The last episode to air in 1968, Star Trek: Elaan of Troyius was never a favorite of mine. I’m not fond of France Nuyen as an actress, and I really hate her character here of Elaan. Like most episodes of Star Trek, though, there’s always something to …
Scare Tactics
A TV series that tries to bring the fear to viewers by showing a host of little skits where they put people in compromising situations just see what they would do in order to preserve their own sanity and lives together. Usually the situations that they encounter are very …
Faerie Tale Theater: Tale of the Frog Prince
I loaded the old television show Faerie Tale Theater on my Netflix Player the other day as something I could sit down and watch with my daughter. When I did that, I wasn’t really sure what to expect, especially from the first episode “Tale of the Frog Prince” because …
Law & Order SVU TV Episode: Possessed
When we decided to watch Law & Order SVU last night, we didn’t know there was going to be two episodes instead of just one. So, instead of going to bed by 9, we ended up staying up an extra hour to watch the second episode called “Possessed.”
At first, …
The Nanny (tv series)
One of my favourite comedy sitcoms to watch back in the nineteen nineties when I was still a child was one called “The Nanny”, because I thought that it was both funny and interesting to watch. I remember at the time that there were still one or two jokes …
Adam-12: Log 16: A Child in Danger
What I like about Adam-12: Log 16: A Child in Danger is the cute little banter that occurs throughout the episode about Jim Reed’s baby boy. Little Jimmy has a fever, and his godfather, Pete Malloy, is overly worried. He keeps trying to get Reed to get …
The Cleaner: Lie With Me
The Cleaner: Lie With Me is the season ender for year one, and frankly, I just don’t get it. I was ultra disappointed in this show. It’s all about the Banks family and how it suddenly spirals downward. All season long, the story has been about …
Jon and Kate Plus 8
This is a very entertaining show that I discovered by accident about a year and a half ago. I was tired of the horrible shows on television and was looking for something different. That’s when I saw those cute adorable faces. They were the Gosselin sextuplets and they were …
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 54 (Anime)
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 54 begins with a flashback of just after the Ishval war and Hawkeye requests that Mustang deface the tattoo on her back that is her father’s alchemy research. Hawkeye confronts Mustang and tricks Envy into revealing himself. She tries to kill him …
Models of the Runway: They Love Me, They Love Me Not
OK, I was wrong. When the show Models of the Runway first came out, I assumed, because the judging was on the designers and not them, there wouldn’t be as much cattiness in this competition. Turns out, there was.
I do like the whole behind the scenes concept of this …
Home Improvement television series
This is one of my all time favorite shows from back in the day, even though you can sometimes still find some episodes on reruns. This show features Tim Taylor, the tool man, in this hilarious character. The best part about this show is that it is a comedy, …
Monk (tv series)
The television series “Monk” was one of those that I began watching from the time the pilot episode premiered years ago. While I don’t remember thinking it was very interesting, especially since I was much younger and my interests differed somewhat, when I got older and my sense of …
Castle Season 4 Episode 6 (TV show)
This was another great episode of the TV show Castle themed for Halloween. It wasn’t scary, it was more like a murder mystery. It was more snappy and witty than usual and I was laughing for the most part.
In this episode the police department encounters the world of the …
The Oprah Winfrey Show
I like to come home and watch the Oprah Winfrey show because I love the topics that Oprah examines on her show. She discuses the things that some other talk show hosts may not confront. I can’t even begin to count how many things I’ve learned just from watching …
Fox Sports Sunday NFL Pregame Show
Fox Sports Sunday NFL Pregame Show with Terry Bradshaw, Howie Long, and Michael Strahan.
These fun loving, yet well versed sports legends do a great job at turning sports news into a good time had by all. These personalities are well prepared and eloquent speakers as …
The Defenders: Nevada v. Sen. Harper TV Show
This episode of The Defenders, known as Nevada v. Sen. Harper, was rock solid, and it is the kind of hour that I want to see. It’s not that there aren’t still annoyances, because there are, but the dramatic portions are really wonderful to watch.
The opening scene with …
Highway Patrol: Hitchhiker Dies TV Show
Highway Patrol: Hitchhiker Dies is a compelling half hour drama from this police show that focuses on the subject of coincidence. A man commits a robbery, is wounded, and then manages to find a ride with a man passing by. Eventually, the man realizes he’s with a …
Prison Wives
The show ‘Prison Wives’ is a new show about women who have married men who, for the most part, will be spending the rest of their lives in prison. What is wrong with this picture? I can understand if your man will get out and you’ll be able to …
Due South: An Invitation to Romance
What we learn in the opening scene of Due South: An Invitation to Romance is that Ray Vecchio’s sister, Francesca, has made her move on Royal Canadian Mountie Benton Fraser. At the end of the last episode, she showed up at the very last moment of the show. …
24 Season 1 Episode 13
Anyone who watched the TV Series 24 is probably by now very much aware of how addictive it really is. It is probably due to the fact that the show is taking place in real time during a 24 hour period. This way, every episode is connect to the …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Band Candy
While not a great episode, the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode “Band Candy” was definitely funny and interesting.
The good thing about this episode is everything starts out so innocently. Buffy and her friends are pretty much forced to sell candy to raise money for the band (even though they …
M*A*S*H: Life with Father
M*A*S*H: Life with Father is one of those shows that makes me stop and shake my head. During the entire half hour show, Henry Blake (McLean Stevenson) is all upset because of a letter from his wife. Actually, at first he’s happy about it because she tells …
Gilligan’s Island - Hi Fi Gilligan TV Show
This episode is great! You know there is not even one dull moment in the whole show, full of surprising events that keeps you guessing what will happen next. It plays as more an outrageous show and yes is unrealistic, but still good. Gilligan of course gets into trouble, …
Death Note Episode 24 (Anime)
Death Note Episode 24 begins with the Task Force arresting Higuchi and covering his eyes so he can’t see anything because he needs to see a person’s face in order to kill. L discovers the existence of Shinigami when he touches the notebook and Light regains his memories …
The X-Files The Calusari Episode
I remember watching this episode of the popular nineteen nineties American television series a couple years ago but being unable to finish watching the episode because I was too busy. However, I watched it again recently and remembered that one of the things I liked about the episode was …
The X-Files Patience Episode
I found this particular episode quite interesting. In fact I think I could put it on my list of the most memorable X-Files episodes I have watched, not because it has some sort of a twist but because of how things were written, the costuming, acting and so on. …
Ghost Hunters TV Episode: Frozen in Fear
Synopsis: The TAPS team investigates a northern Michigan resort (which is deserted as a result of it being the off-season) in an effort to hunt down the spirit of a college student who reportedly killed himself when he proposed to his girlfriend and was turned down.
What I liked about …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Tomorrow’s Child TV Show
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Tomorrow’s Child, which was one of the last episodes of this science fiction series to air back in August 1992, started out with a neat shot of a vessel speeding across the water. As we closed in, we saw that it was being driven …
Sea Hunt: Niko TV Show
Niko was the 17th episode from the fourth year of the underwater adventure series, Sea Hunt, which starred Lloyd Bridges as expert skin diver, Mike Nelson. The drama starts out very early in this show when Nelson and his partner, Frank Judd (played by Lane Bradford) discover two …
Summer Heights High Series 1 Episode 1
The humour in Summer Heights High is right up my street but before I actually checked it out, I thought it was just another shallow teen soap opera. This is a great comedy show actually in the style of a documentary, featuring three characters at the Australian school …
Dr. House show
Watching House with his non-existent bedside manner and amazing diagnostic skills often makes me wish he was my doctor. There are people to make up for his lack of bedside manner. When I go to the doctor in reality they may or may not have a bedside manner and …
Death of an Expert Witness - Part 3
I’m not really sure if viewers have known this before or not, but it was news to me. In Death of an Expert Witness - Part 2, we learn that Chief Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh (Roy Marsden) is a poet. This does become a side point in the …
Gilligan’s Island - The Hunter TV Show
I personally do not like watching this episode, since it leaves me more stressed out than anything. There is a suspenseful feel that just rubs me the wrong way, entirely too serious for a family show. Thomas Kincaid rolled by Roy Calhoun, plays a dreadfully serious animal hunter character …
Hoarders tv show
On the channel TLC, I watched one of their shows that come on called Hoarders. It’s a quite interesting show about people who collect just about any thing and everything in their house. There homes get very cluttered and make for unlivable housing conditions. In the episode they …
Stargate SG1: Solitudes
This episode was a great one for any Jack/Sam shippers. Stuck under ice, all alone. Depending on no one else but themselves. Hoping and praying that their friends would figure it out, but willing to do whatever they had to in order to survive.
The start of …
The Steve Wilkos Show
I love to watch television talk shows at times and one of them is the Steve Wilkos show. Every since watching him on the Jerry show I have been a fan of his. Since he has started his own show I have been watching it all the time. It …
Top Chef: Just Desserts: Cocktail with a Twist TV Show
Top Chef: Just Desserts: Cocktail with a Twist was a volatile hour, thanks to one of the contestants. Sometimes the chefs really do overpower the theme of the episode.
The quick fire challenge featured Elizabeth Falkner and was to create a dish that celebrates penny candy. This led to …
John Doe season 1 episode 1 pilot
You know Lincoln Burrows from Prison Break? I was wondering where have I seen him before and then I remembered seeing a first episode of a show called John Doe, about a man without past who knows everything about everything and everyone except himself. Dominic Purcell was also, in …
Prison Break Season 3 Episode 1- Orientaction
Prison Break Season 3 Episode 1- Orientaction
This is the episode that starts the new season of the amazing show Prison Break. Although it is still amazing, I have strong doubts about me enjoying it much. This time Michael Scofield is in prison again. Only this time it is not …
Dr Phil
Dr. Phil is a really cool show. I really enjoy watching this show everyday. I think this show teaches people who to be better people and solve their problems. I think Dr. Phil is a pretty smart man. He has also gained a lot of fame after being in the …
Rush (An Australian TV Series)
Rush is an Australian TV series set in Melbourne, Australia. I follow this series religiously because it is an eye-opener in terms of the differences between the police in the US and Australia. The accent is a bit difficult to follow, but after a while, you begin to understand …
Beast Wars - Other Voices, Part 1
Beast Wars - Other Voices, Part 1 is the first half of the season finale and in this episode the viewer learns more about the aliens that have placed odd structures and technology on the planet. It is also in this episode that the aliens essentially declare war on …
Teletubbies for kids
Teletubbies usually runs on the local stations. Its a very good program for babies and very young toddlers. Babies are fastinated by the teletubbies movement, singing, and dancing. They love “Nunu” which is the teletubbies little vaacum cleaner. Teletubbies love to hug and dance and play. Each episode features …
The Virginian: Ah Sing vs. Wyoming TV Show
It’s an interesting thing about The Virginian: Ah Sing vs. Wyoming, which was the 7th episode to air in season six. I had wondered if there had been any real context behind the story, a case of reality by taking a real situation and sticking it into an …
The Real Ghostbusters: Season 1, Episode 14: Knock, Knock
Man, I wanted to like this episode more than I did. It wasn’t bad per se, but it had everything going for it, yet the end result was still only passable. Straczynski was writing it, it centered on an ancient world threatening evil, and Slimer had only …
The Ray Bradbury Theater DVD set
Earlier this year, I was gifted with The Ray Bradbury Theater DVD set, which contains all 65 episodes of the science fiction series on 5 DVDs. I’ve just finished reviewing the episodes, so now it’s time to take a look at the DVD set itself.
There are plenty of highs …
