I am awaiting the start of the ninth season of Dancing with the Stars with bated breath. I first followed this reality dance show, which features a professional ballroom dancer teaming up with a celebrity to do ballroom dancing, when I watched Mel B and Maksim Chmerkovskiy dance the …

M*A*S*H: Ping Pong quite honestly isn’t one of my favorite shows, though it does have a couple of interesting elements to it. Overall, though, it was a little slow for me, even with the dramatic bits that were included in this half-hour episode.
There’s a beautiful Korean wedding that …

This episode of Scrubs starts out with Turk trying to confort his wife while she goes off on a tangent. He calms her down and she gets happy with him and he goes outside to talk with JD and they start talking about the good time he’s going to …

In That Girl: Soap Gets in Your Eyes, Ann gets a job on a soap opera which is ill timed since she’s about to meet Don’s parents. Don’s mother happens to watch the soap opera and isn’t able to separate Ann from her not-so-good character that she portrays. …

Fireball XL5: Ghosts of Space is a story about greed, or maybe about what happens when left all alone and you go a little space crazy. Basically, Colonel Steve Zodiac and his XL5 crew take an explorer to the Ececton, a planet full of electric rocks. Now …

Is it me or is it more than a coincidence that Corey Feldman receives the poster for his new movie, “The Birthday”, on Corey Haim’s 35th birthday? Hmm… Oh wait, this is reality television, everything is like 50% planned or something, right? So yeah, in that case, it does …

Top Chef: Restaurant Wars was the latest episode for the Washington D.C. season of this reality cooking show. The 2010 cast has spent the season in the nation’s capitol as they vie for the honor of being named the latest Top Chef.
This cast is one of the more …

I enjoy ‘How Clean is your House?’ mainly because I find it very motivating when it comes to cleaning my own house. In each episodes, the team visits what the voice-over man calls a ‘filth offender’, someone living in a revoltingly dirty house. Although you or I …

Rescue Me is a phenomenal television program, expertly melding the genres of comedy, drama, and brief snippets of action into a seething, emotionally driven and, at times, flat out hilarious portrayal of life for New York City firefighters, especially in the midst of the tragedies of 9/11. Actor/ Comedian …

The collection Perfect Predators is a series of nature show specials on sharks. This was one of the editions of Shark Week, a yearly event on the Discovery Channel, which features a week of programs all about sharks. This episode, Perfect Predators, is an overview of information …

I’m not sure, but it really seems like the show Bones is starting to go downhill a bit ever since they insisted on focusing on Booth and Brennan as a potential couple.
Last night’s episode, The Predator in the Pool, didn’t do much to make me think otherwise either. While …

The sensational blend of voices known as Celtic Woman has offered up a new concert for the masses on PBS and it’s a good one. Celtic Woman: Songs, From the Heart is enchanting. I’ve watched it four times in three days: that’s how much I like it.
Taped …

The Beast Wars - Part Two is the second half of the series premier. The second half of the premier, I think, is more interesting and enjoyable than the first half because it is in the second half that the very conflict-heavy relationship between Dinobot and Rattrap begin and …

Unfortunately, Columbo: A Case of Immunity is one of those episodes that really doesn’t appeal to me. It guest stars Hector Elizondo as a foreign embassy worker, so he has diplomatic immunity; at least, on the surface. He’s a security worker who kills the security chief and …

Synopsis: Bones receives unwanted help from a Canadian foot expert after a bunch of severed feet wind up on the United States/Canadian border and she needs to figure out who they belonged to and how they got there. The episode first aired April 7, 2011.

Airing in March 1960, Sea Hunt: The Fearmakers was the 12th episode to air in the underwater adventure series’ third season. This is another show where diver Mike Nelson, nicely acted by Lloyd Bridges, is working with the United States Coast Guard for which he’s a member of …

The Dog Whisperer is in its fourth season on National Geographic TV and if you have any interest in pets, it is a must see. To think that someone can communicate with animals and correct their behavior is just amazing. I feel sorry for many of the animals …

Episode 3 of 1987’s science fiction comedy series, Out of This World, is called The Nightmare. It’s an appropriate title since teenager Evie Garland (Maureen Flannigan) spends most of the show fretting about her nightmare. Evie is half-alien (as in out of this world, father from another …

“Rugrats” was one of those animated series that I loved watching when I was much younger. I understand that it premiered in the early nineties, but I only started watching it on the cable television channel Nickelodeon in the late nineties. The series was interesting because of the unique …

I’m not sure if it’s a show I would watch all the time. But, I have to admit the series Mythbusters does have some entertaining moments on it.
The great thing about the show is it uses scientific methods to prove or disprove myths relating to everything from a cigarette …

Fame: A Musical Bridge has two fairly decent plots going for it. Neither of them on their own really jumps out at me, but together they do enough to make this an okay show for me. It’s not one of my favorites, but I certainly don’t turn …

I haven’t seen the game show Family Feud in ages so, when I watched it last night, I wasn’t sure if I was watching a brand new episode or a repeat.
In any case, it turned out to be an entertaining way to spend a half hour.
The game itself was …

Synopsis: House and his team have to diagnose a woman who is brought in with severe vomiting; something that is more difficult than expected because the patient has a tendency to lie about her past.
What I liked about this episode: The case itself was actually pretty interesting. The woman …

“Divided We Fall” is the 25th episode of Justice League Unlimited, season one, and for all intents and purposes, it is the season finale even though one more episode remains. It is a great episode and brings the year to a satisfying conclusion.
Lex Luthor and Brainiac have merged, …

This is a documentary series that I’ve seen air from time to time on the cable television station National Geographic. I’m not quite sure how many of them there are either, but I’ve watched the episode about Bigfoot and others.
The one I watched just a couple minutes ago …

Best known for her role as one of the kids on Eight is Enough, Connie Needham stars in Fame: To Soar and Never Falter, a first season entry for this series I so often enjoy watching. Basically, Needham’s character is Kathy Murphy, one of the students at the …

This is a show that originally aired in the 90s. It was critically acclaimed at the time, but low ratings lead to its cancellation. It got a second chance to find an audience on MTV a few years later, but no additional episodes were ever created. …

“Bloodbath” is an Abby-centric episode. When NCIS goes to a crime scene at a motel where there is tissue and blood all over the room, they wonder where the body may be. While Abby and McGee are going over some evidence, Abby smells almonds - cyanide. …

Mad Hungry with Lucinda Scala Quinn: Hot Sauce was another good outing, even though it wasn’t totally my style. The thing is that I really like watching Lucinda. She appears just like any common, everyday woman. Her kitchen set isn’t pretentious. Yes, it has all …

Even before I got television in the early 2000s I would hear references to a show called “Larry King Live”. However, since I did not have cable at the time and thus did not know what it was about I suspected that it would be sort of like a …

While I have written how much I love the idea of American Gladiators returning to television, after watching the Jan. 7 episode of the show (the third overall), I’m finding myself questioning whether the contestants are winning fair and square.
First of all, the winners are a little too likeable. …

Since there’s a shortage of TV shows right now, being that it’s summer and all, I decided to look up some DVDs of old series that I haven’t watch and giving them a try. I’m a big fan of the show How I Met Your Mother, especially Jason Segel …

The pilot for the new TV series, The Whole Truth, was just okay in my opinion. The show features Rob Morrow as a fast paced defense attorney, along with Maura Tierney as the lead prosecutor. This gives the viewer both sides of the story, so to speak.
At …

It’s so hard to write much good about the season six episodes of Stargate SG-1. Without the Daniel Jackson character, the team just wasn’t there. He was the heart and soul of the SGC.
Stargate SG-1: Redemption is the first episode of the sixth season. This is …

Frankie Boyle is without question one of the best comedians on t.v at the moment, but he is so close to the line when it comes to testing new barriers to comedy that I always expected him to stick to panel shows and his stand up tour, so seeing …

Whoopi: The Fat and the Frivolous is not a favorite outing of this series which stars the very colorful Whoopi Goldberg. Whoopi also developed this NBC series which aired during the 2003-2004 TV season. In the show, her character of Mavis Rae is a one time singer …

Welcome to the first test of the Nerv emergency backup power generation center, which Nerv supports 100%! Yeah, right. On Neon Genesis Evangelion episode 11 “The day Tokyo 3 stood still” is a sure fire classic that still makes me crack up over how ineffective this system really is. …

Well, I waited for the new Ghost Hunters episode last night and was finally rewarded. Unfortunately, I think I liked the re-runs leading up to it a bit better.
The first case was involving a family that was being terrorized by a spirit and I will admit there was some evidence …

Death Note Episode 37 is the final episode of the anime and it shows Near revealing with proof and solid evidence that Light is Kira. The SPK has their reaction and they try to take Light into custody.
This episode was fantastic. The dialogue was terrific and very …

Stargate SG-1: Out of Mind is the final episode of the second season, and it’s the first part of a cliff hanger. It brings with it a tragic loss. I mourn it to this day. Alas, it was the end of the shag, of Michael Shanks’ …

Beast Wars - Nemesis Part One is the first part of the series finale. For the most part, this episode is entertaining and delivers on its build-up with one of the series’ most chilling cliffhangers: the raising of the Decepticon battleship from deep within the ocean. At the helm: …

Welcome to the casinos of the future where perennial character actor and guest villain Richard Lynch is up to his evil ways. Buck Rogers is the man who knows how to win at 10 and 11 (the futuristic version of Blackjack) because he can use his brain as opposed …

The tenth episode in the series, “Lair of Grevious”, is another fine example of a classic episode in this animated TV series, an utmost excellent and worthy follow up after the wondrous “Cloak of Darkness” which preceded it. Here, Count Dooku puts General Grevious to the test by having …

Beast Machines - The Reformatting is the first episode of the Beast Machines series and it is a good one! I think the writers did a superb job of conveying a sense of confusion that the viewers could share with the characters, that have no idea what is going …

John Doe is a very good show that unfortunately had just one season back at 2002-2003. It is about a man who has no memory of his past but oddly knows everything else, he knows all the information about any possible argument, during the show different people call him …

I enjoyed the opening of this episode of Checkmate. The episode title is Face in the Window, and we see the face through the window as we meet the main characters, shopping. They have a fun, carefree chat about a statue which symbolizes happiness. The man …

The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast kept on trekking from Las Vegas, Nevada by honoring Mr. T of The A-Team. Now why would they do this? In my opinion, it’s one of the NBC self-promotion shows. The dais was full of NBC stars and not many had …
