I got home in time last night to watch some re-runs of That 70s Show, including one I haven’t seen before; Backstage Pass.
This one was actually a pretty funny episode; well at least part of it was.
I wasn’t a huge fan of the part involving the friends trying to …

The leading character of Sailor Moon is Usagi Tsukino, who lives a normal high school life until she meets a talking cat named Luna. Through her, Usagi discovers that the world is in endangered by the Dark Kingdom which had destroyed the Kingdom of the Moon long ago. This …

It’s the fear of flying, and yes, actual flying, that is at the core of Whoopi: Airplane! from 2004. The ladies are playing their usual weekly poker game and the topic of their yearly getaway game came up. It had already been decided that they’d go to …

Stargate SG-1: Entity is a decent fourth season entry for the series. Here, Sam Carter gets taken over by an entity and refuses to leave her body, that is until Jack threatens the entity. Then the entity leaves the body, and Sam is declared brain dead, kept …

From its second season in December 1956, Highway Patrol: Oil Lease centers around a couple of thieves who steal thousands of dollars with the assistance of a stolen bazooka weapon. Now that’s a twist, especially for when this show was produced.
The thirty minute program was mostly action as …

I’m including the final two parts of Cover Her Face as one entry because it lost me a little in the fifth part. I drifted away from the story more. Perhaps I was just tired or maybe the story lagged, but while it had me early on, …

This jerk liked to dress up and then kidnap women. He tortured them and then when he was done drowned them. Not a nice guy at all. The big problem was, when in disguise, he wasn’t scary at all. Sometimes he even acted like a disabled man. What woman …

When a secret gathering of some of the world’s richest men is hijacked by a group of extremists, Ros finds herself locked away in an airtight panic room with the hostages and captors while on the outside, Harry is forced to make some impossible decisions.
This episode is a …

This is the beginning of the series, and the whole story is being introduced in a very clever way. It really made the story look appealing. But there was this feeling that it was going to be some clever spy-like story where the hero outsmarts everyone and manages to …

“Dark Heart” is the 10th episode of season one of Justice League Unlimited. The episode stars the Atom and gives him a chance to shine out of the shadows of the better known Justice Leaguers. When faced with an alien invasion, the Justice League makes a special call …

Mod Squad: The Teeth of the Barracuda is the pilot to this classic police drama about three young undercover cops. The idea is that being young and hip, no one would think they were cops. All had been in trouble when asked to join the police force …

One of the shows that I watch periodically on A&E would have to probably Gene Simmons Family Jewels. The show features the life of the bassist from kiss along with his two kids and girlfriend Shannon Tweed. The show has a corny intro to start it off but …

This episode of Dog the bounty hunter has to be my absolute favorite. Why might you ask? Well it shows a lot of Leland Chapman, which happens to be my favorite bounty hunter because he is just so drop down gorgeous, and he seems so funny. The fugitive that …

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 …

Helen Slater has come a long way since the beginning of her career, something that is evident from her strong guest starring performance in CSI: New York: Do Not Pass Go. She’s the mom of a missing older teenager whose desperation to find him has her eager to …

Wagon Train: The Gus Morgan Story is not one of my favorites. It really never appealed to me. It bores me, to be honest. Peter Falk is the main star, playing Gus Morgan. Also appearing is Tommy Sands as Gus’ brother, Ethan Morgan. The …

My husband began watching Torchwood reruns on the internet awhile back. I am not really into sci-fi television, but I do like this show. It is about a special ops team that deals with aliens and alien artifacts. They also deal with a rift that allows things from the …

“The Waterflowers of Cerulean City” is an episode of the “Pokemon” series that features Ash’s second gym battle as well as Misty’s three sisters. Unlike “Showdown in Pewter City,” the episode that introduced Brock and his backstory. This episode doesn’t do much to expand upon Misty’s back story. Misty’s …

I tend to like watching certain genres of Japanese animation especially if I feel that they have a very interesting plot and characters, but for some reason I find many of those hard to encounter these days, especially when it comes to new anime. Therefore, what I did was …

The Andy Griffith Show: The Darling Baby aired in December 1964 and continued the saga of the popular Darling family. Once again, I have to say that I am not a huge fan of this story arc, but it is quite popular with fans of this highly successful …

The Andy Griffith Show: Andy Saves Barney’s Morale is absolutely hysterical from start to finish, with a tad of poignancy thrown in. This 1961 first season outing as Deputy Barney Fife (Don Knotts) acting as sheriff for the first time when Sheriff Andy Taylor goes out of town …

As our lovable crew of the bebop fly around Jupiter, it seems that Miss Faye Valentine has an obligation of being the rat of the series and empties the crews safe. Broke and pissed off Jet Black wishes to find her and squeeze all of the credits he can …

Frank Burns (Larry Linville) turns the 4077th upside down in M*A*S*H: Alcoholics Unanimous when he accuses just about everyone of being alcoholics, something that known of them want to admit. Ultimately, Father Mulcahy is set to give a lecture on the subject, but he gets a little nervous. …

I’m a sucker for horror movies and have been ever since I can remember. I started watching some horror movies that would frighten most adults in the worst way before I reached age five, and had read most of Stephen King’s novels by the time I was eleven. Therefore, …

Stargate SG-1: Prodigy is somewhat of a let down, mainly because Michael Shanks isn’t in it at all. He was given the week off to concentrate on the upcoming episode that he was directing. Actually, this wasn’t originally how it was supposed to be, but it’s how …

Have Gun - Will Travel: Jenny opened at the Hotel Carlton in San Francisco where our hero, Paladin (Richard Boone), is coming to a lady’s aid once again. The lovely lady has the misfortune to have numerous $20 bills which, as it turned out, were distributed in Denver …

Bring ‘Em Back Alive: Thirty Hours is one of the better episodes of this animal adventure series. It has a lot of basic hurt-comfort elements to it, and that’s a style of TV show I tend to enjoy, even I don’t like the series overall.
On the plus side …

I re-watched last week’s episode of Project Runway today and have to say I don’t think I liked it all that much really. It wasn’t a terrible episode but I really hate challenges that force designers to have to listen to clients and not be able to have a …

Yesterday was my birthday so I decided to take the afternoon off. I didn’t do too much other than watch TV. But, I did get to see a great episode of Home Improvement.
Ironically, this episode had Tim celebrating his birthday too. Only, instead of getting to do what he …

As I think I mentioned a little while ago, my daughter was watching older cartoons on TV this past weekend and I had an opportunity to watch some of them with her.
One of the ones that really stuck out in my head was an old re-run of the show …

From March 1962, the fifth season, Have Gun - Will Travel: Man Who Struck Moonshine is a show with a message about drinking too much. It’s veiled within a story of eerie happenings, but it is about being an alcoholic. It’s about a man with no confidence, …

Jon and Ponch (Larry Wilcox and Erik Estrada) end up on a special detail in CHiPs: Pressure Point from season two. The story evolves around the wealthy Arthur Forbinger, played with gusting exuberance by Rudy Vallee. Nothing Vallee does is low key, regardless of storyline. He …

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 …

This is a series that I am really glad to have picked up on. I am currently watching season 2 of Dexter because season one enticed me to keep it on my Netflix DVD queue. The show introduces you to its main character: Dexter Morgan. He is …

Well, I guess the character of Shawn Spencer can’t criticize all the survival training his dad gave him as a kid any more. After all, he had to use all of it to survive last night’s episode of Psych; Shawn takes a shot in the dark.
Shawn gets shot and …

Zuko and crew continue to look for Aang, employing the bounty hunter that Zuko used back in season 1. Even her mole can’t get a trace on him. According to June, Aang no longer exists.
Aang happens to wake up on a strange island. My thought was …

This episode starts in Brazilian woods where a man kills an animal. When I saw this man I have immediately recognized Jeff Kober who usually plays bad guys in different shows. So when I saw him here I knew something was strange because Jeff was black here. But as …

MacGyver: Hellfire is another episode that I really enjoy. There are only four characters in it, five if you want to include the helicopter pilot who flies Mac to the remote location where his friends are. As a result, it ends up being a show that is …

The Ray Bradbury Theater: Here There Be Tygers is a tale of exploration as astronauts land on a new world. We actually learn the meaning of the title very early on, and it is perhaps a hint of what the story that follows will be like.
The series aired …

Star Trek: Journey to Babel is one of the legendary shows because it introduces us to Spock’s parents, Sarek and Amanda. Mark Lenard plays Sarek, a role he’d continue to play in the Star Trek movies as well as the spin off series, Star Trek: The Next Generation. …

Have Gun - Will Travel: Love’s Young Dream featured Gunsmoke’s Ken Curtis as a colorful character named Monk. Of course, this was before Curtis made that jump on Gunsmoke. He’s a hoot in this bit, but I kept waiting for him to call Paladin, “Mr. Dillon” or …

Yet another hospital drama! Boring, not! It’s not a copycat of ER like one review I read over the world wide web. Grey’s Anatomy is not overrated nor is it filled with overacting characters. I consider this one of the most realistic shows today. The scenes are not overly …

OK, the Ghost Hunters episode “The Red Room” turned out to be a big disappointment. I don’t mind watching the show and seeing them debunk various ghosts but it is pretty sad when they don’t even have anything they can debunk.
This one involved them making a trip to Louisiana …

I watched another season three episode of Ghost Hunters over the weekend and have to say it was entertaining.
In “Toys of Terror” the TAPS team is asked to investigate a house by a woman who is terrified of the things she has seen and heard there. What’s interesting about …

Burn Notice: Breaking and Entering is the first episode of the second season, and it’s the conclusion of a sort of cliffhanger, meaning there’s a lot of history that a new viewer such as myself needs to pick up on in terms of knowing the story.
One of the things …

Two and a Half Men is a family situation comedy that has been making viewers laugh since 2003. With its slightly off beat, but yet mostly normal, cast of characters who get great scripts, you almost wish they were your family. That is if you do not want …

My daughter had on cartoons this past Saturday and was watching several re-runs of the show The Jetsons. I really wasn’t paying too much attention to what she was watching until one episode came on TV; Jane’s Driving Lesson.
OK, I know the episode is pretty sexist and relies on …

MacGyver: Countdown is the fourteenth episode of season one. It’s a very watchable show which has the action contained and rather subdued aboard a cruise ship. The sedentary action is watching Mac and his buddy try to disarm three bombs that have been set on the passenger …

Stargate SG-1: The Pegasus Project is the best show of season ten and my rating is going to pretend that the Vala character doesn’t exist. Any time she shows up, it drags the show down to a zero, so when I can, I’m going to ignore her, and …
