Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Sky’s on Fire, the 18th show of the 2nd season, was a terrific episode to watch. However, just a few moments into the show, it might look very familiar to some.
This story is a variation of the movie the series …

Gundam Wing is an undoubtly excellent series. Everything involved in the creation of Gundam Wing is incredible based on my experience from watching the whole series. The anime’s high quality effects and superb action blows up my mind every single time I watch it. And just like my other …

I have problems with The Solid Gold Patrol episode of Have Gun - Will Travel from season 2. The basic premise is that a corporal in the army has won the New Orleans lottery which was worth $600,000. I must admit straight up that I didn’t even …

On this evening, Joe Namath was the Man of the Hour being roasted in The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast. Namath was one of four people who were roasted twice during these events. This was his second time in the hot seat. As often was the case, …

Well, that was a somewhat funny episode of That 70s Show last night, “On with the Show.”
I actually didn’t really intend on watching it. I just had that channel on because the Simpsons were going to be on at 6 and this episode happened to be airing. When I …

The 11th season of Dancing with the Stars continued with its seventh week of competition also being a celebration of its 200th episode. The underdog series took a while to catch on, but now it’s a staple on TV despite annual criticism over its B-level stars, celebrities, or …

In my mind, CHiPs: High Explosive is a bit controversial. I’m sure to many it could be a sensitive area. It begins when a teenager uses a pellet gun and causes a traffic accident that leaves one woman seriously injured.
Ike Eisenmann guest stars as Barry, the boy …

A ham and a tart. That’s the standout moment of this episode of Columbo called Dagger of the Mind. John Williams utters the accusation at a married couple who he believes has been using him to back their production of MacBeth. Williams calls Nicholas Frame a …

From 1958, the opening episode of Highway Patrol’s final season on the air, its fourth, was called Frightened Witness. The title is a little off as it should have been Frightened Witnesses. That is because there were two scared folks, a couple named Carl and Jennifer Stone. …

This episode of Ghost Hunters wasn’t too bad because the TAPS team at least seems to make a legitimate effort to debunk the cases.
The first one was in a private home where a little girl was being haunted by the spirit of another child. I don’t really buy …

I was watching some MASH re-runs and came across one of my least favorite episodes “The Joker is Wild,” just because it was kind of pointless and one of the most un-funny episodes of the show I have ever seen. And, I’ve seen almost every single episode of it …

In my opinion, The Twilight Zone: Number 12 Looks Just Like You is one of the few bright spots in this final season of Rod Serling’s classic science fiction series. It’s sad that so many shows from this fifth year are duds. This one, however, is not. …

Once again, I ended up staying up late to watch Ghost Hunters (because the first airing of the new episode is on at the same time as Law & Order SVU so I end up watching the encore showing of it). And, I ended up a bit disappointed.
Well, actually, …

In Touching Evil: Boston, David Creegan (Jeffrey Donovan) and the FBI team travel to Boston for their latest case. It’s an emotional trip of sorts because Boston is where Creegan grew up, so he has a lot of memories there, many of which he is conflicted about.
My favorite …

I have been a big fan of Aghata Christie when I was little although I must admit that I prefer Poirot to Ms Marple because he was so much more excentric and looked much more smart.
Anyway. Ms marple is this small old woman who somehow manages to find herself …

I was surfing channels when I saw this show at the National Geographic Channel. The title is “My Dog Ate What?” and it was very engaging I watched the whole show.
This is about dogs (and in this episode called “Batteries and Cereal Boxes”, a tortoise was featured too!) who …

I have recently started to watch the TV series Dark Angel. Jessica Alba is the main character, and I have to say that she could use some acting lessons. Sometimes she over acts, and sometimes she under acts. She does not seem to be able to …

Shroud for a Nightingale - Part 5 is the big wrap up to this P.D. James murder mystery. We get lots of answers and more suspense. This is a much better conclusion than what I’ve seen in some of the other television adaptations of James’ novels.
I must …

Proving Ground is a nice little episode of the fifth season of Stargate SG-1. It’s yet another show focused on Earth (one must wonder how much economics played in all of these Earth-bound episodes) where four potential SGC candidates are put through a rigorous training exercise, the four …

America’s Next Top Model is a show where young women compete to be America’s Next Top Model. The complete challenges relating to modeling every week and then face a judging panel which kicks one of them out.

Firstly I didn’t …

The fun part of Adam-12: The Adoption has nothing to do with the crime stories, but with a wager made between Pete and Jim. Jim wins the bet, so Pete takes the Reeds out for dinner. Jim was ready for it, too, not having eaten anything else. …

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 …

This was the latest episode of CSI: las vegas. I enjoyed it for the most part. Here lately they haven’t been having very many good episodes at all. There have only been a couple of good episodes ever since Grissom left. This one and “miscarriage of justice” was good …

When I was a child, I just love to watch Superman, and till now I love to watch him. And this TV show called “Smallville” is based upon the day today life story of Superman. Watching his normal life is really cool, and I am watching this series from …

Sea Hunt: Sixty Feet Below debuted on January 4, 1958, and it was a good outing to start off with for this adventure series. I wasn’t even born when this show took to the air, so this is the first time I’m seeing the underwater themed program which …

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Blizzard Makers is the 13th episode from year one of this outstanding program. It opens with a new style, using newspapers to communicate what’s been happening, which is a lot of unusual weather, like blizzards in Florida. I do …

There isn’t much on TV today so I found myself watching re-runs of Mork & Mindy most of the morning. It’s been a while since I’ve seen the show but the episode “A Mommy for Morky,” reminded me of everything that I missed about the series.
I don’t remember Mindy …

DC Cupcakes: Pilot is a new half-hour series that just began airing on one of the cable networks in the USA. The name is taken from the fact that it follows a couple of sisters who are in the cupcake baking business in the Georgetown areas of Washinton, …

There must be a Night Court Christmas marathon on tv this morning because this is the second Christmas episode in a row I’ve come across. While I didn’t like it as much as “Santa Goes Downtown” the episode “Let it Snow” still manages to be funny while sharing the …

“Double Date” was an interesting episode of Justice League Unlimited, season one. Essentially, the episode features Black Canary and Green Arrow fighting against Huntress and the Question. There is sexual tension in each couple, and the women clearly do not like each other, for whatever reason. …

I am embarrassed to admit that as an African-American I am just now seeing the mini-series Roots for the first time in my late twenties. BET recently had a marathon of it for Black History Month, and I thought it would be the perfect time for me to sit …

M*A*S*H: Captains Outrageous centers on Father Francis Mulcahy, played wonderfully with mild perfection by William Christopher. Though Mulcahy has given one-hundred percent of himself to helping out at the 4077th and with the children at the orphanage, he continues to be passed over for promotion. He’s a …

I kind of suspected all the hype about Kathy Reichs writing the script to last night’s episode of Bones, The Witch in the Wardrobe, would lead to some disappointment. And, I was right.
While an OK episode, this one actually was a bit weaker than expected and I just didn’t …

As odd as this sounds, I actually enjoy Stargate SG-1: Fallout a great deal. The reason this may sound odd to folks is that this is the one time Corin Nemec returned as Jonas Quinn. In fact, the story was his idea.
The reason I like it, though, …

From May 1985, The Ray Bradbury Theater: Marionettes, Inc. was an interesting piece of entertainment. Author Ray Bradbury does the opening introduction, but it’s not actually introductions like Rod Serling did with The Twilight Zone or Boris Karloff did with The Veil. Instead, his opening introduction is …

The Twilight Zone: Spur of the Moment from this show’s fifth and final season is okay, but not a big favorite. I actually tend to watch it more because one of the guest stars for the half hour is Roger Davis, and I tend to enjoy his work …

Have Gun - Will Travel: A Snare for Murder starts out with the action right away, so there’s no San Francisco scene, which is disappointing. However, what happens is pretty good entertainment. Right from the start, Paladin (Richard Boone) ends up in a mess. He helps …

I absolutely love the concept behind the animated program, Star Trek: The Time Trap. This 1973 series did a lot of shows that built on some of the live action shows, but they also had several, like this one, which were quite original to the Star Trek universe. …

One of the best parts of Fireball XL5: XL5 to H20 was a really funny scene with Professor Matt Matic. He was doing one of his experiments when everything exploded. He looks like he’s been right in the middle of it, too. Naturally, no one is hurt, …

Step by Step is a really cool show. I always laughed when I saw this show. The whole family is pretty funny. I think the stories in the show are pretty well written and I like the fact that they teach people a life lesson. I think that this movie …

Columbo: Blueprint for Murder begins with a heated face off between Elliot Markham and Bo Williamson. The latter is the one with the money, and Markham wants his share of it. It’s a loud run in and certainly captures the viewers’ attention right away. Forrest Tucker …
