The eighth episode of Richard Dean Anderson’s Legend TV series is called Bone of Contention, and apparently Pratt (Anderson) does sometimes get the girl, since that’s how the show opens. Actually, it’s a nice bit where Pratt is visualizing the climax of one of his novels. This …

I have been an avid fan of Game of Thrones and now that the season is almost over, I am here to let you guys know how I thought about Episode 9 of Season 2’s Game of Thrones.
For all of you who still live in a cave and …

From May 1961, Thriller: The Prisoner in the Mirror was one of the first episodes I’d seen of this science fiction anthology. I love the opening with Boris Karloff. From watching this show and others, Karloff does a nice opening and sometimes closing, but what makes it …

This episode of Smallville like most of them started out on a light hearted note that went sour. It’s Christmas and instead of celebrating the gang are trying to stop a bomb that’s strapped to Chloe exploding.
For me some parts of this episode were boring. Lois is …

The Fall Guy: The Adventures of Ozzie and Harold is not a favorite episode of mine by any stretch of the imagination. There are a number of reasons for this. First, the opening stunt sequence I don’t find believable, not because of the action, but I just …

The Virginian: Portrait of a Widow guest stars Vera Miles as a widow, Maggie Menken. While visiting back east with Betsy (Roberta Shore), she meets Charles Boulanger, a charming French painter. He surprises Maggie and Betsy by returning to Medicine Bow with them.
John Gavin portrays Boulanger, who …

Have Gun - Will Travel: The Twins was one of those stories where you could suspect the outcome but not really know for sure until the end. It’s a plot that could have gone many different ways. The tale begins in San Francisco at the Hotel Carlton …

Numbers is one of many TV series about someone solving crimes. In numbers it is the mathematics professor Charlie Epps who are helping his brother, who works for the FBI. The father of the Epps brothers also helps them, as does Charlie’s more or less eccentric colleague, his fiancé …

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 …

Plankton, who is Mr. Krabs rival, is once again at it trying to steal the Krusty Krab recipe. He has been at it for years because he knows once he has that recipe he will run the whole restaurant business and put the Krusty Krab out of business. …

From 1987, Private Eye: Both Sides of the Coin is one show of this crime adventure drama that I really couldn’t get into. The story somewhat when in my eyes and ears and right out of my head. It’s a scam plot, and they’re a dime a …

I remember actually watching the premier episode of One Life to Live. It became my favorite soap opera and remained that way for many years. Then the show turned its back on its history, and now I may watch five shows a year, if that. One …

CSI is a long-running series that is very popular all over the world. My main likes for this show is the actors and the fact that you don’t have to see all the episodes to know what it going on. The actors are pretty good, and although they might …

As I understand it, Roberta Shore, who played Betsy Garth on The Virginian from the beginning, left the series to get married and retired from show business. In this fourth season, her character would be turning 20, so that’s definitely marrying age. I am very glad they …

Stargate SG-1: Within the Serpent’s Grasp is the last episode of season 1, the end of the 3-story season-ending arc, and the first of the 2-part cliffhanger. That’s a lot of show!
As mentioned in prior reviews, Daniel Jackson has a way of getting through to Jack O’Neill, and …

Even though I really thought I would stop watching the show House, I have nothing better to do Monday nights and have been catching some of the newer episodes.
For the most part, I have been pleasantly surprised. The episodes seemed like they were following the same basic format the …

Last night was the second-to-last episode of this season’s Ghost Hunters Academy and, if they pick a winner, I really don’t see that person being someone who would really stand out on the Ghost Hunters show.
They sent the team to the St. Augustine Lighthouse; the same place that Ghost …

The first thing I learned about I’ma Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here is that Spenser Pratt and Heidi Pratt are big jokes, and I feel sorry for their fans. I realize The Hills is a huge reality program, but these two are jerks; they’re worse than …

We’ve been using Shaw Digital Cable service for a bout a year now, and we just switched to Telus, for several reasons.
We were unhappy with Shaw for quite some time, but the company we rent from doesn’t allow sattelite, so that left us with no options for cable service …

I mentioned in my last review for The Fall Guy that one of the things that is ironic about this show is that it focuses on a stunt man and as a result we see some incredible stunts. At the same time, it’s not really fictional stunt man …

Ok in this subway advertisement steven’s parent caught him sneaking back into his room with a Subway Combo. Care to guess what the punch line was? Well if you guessed it and I think you did, they took it for themselves. At one point in time I would …

What is really fun about this episode of Emerald Point N.A.S. are two face offs. The first is with regular Dennis Weaver as Rear Admiral Tom Mallory facing off against guest star Robert Loggia, who plays a Russian admiral. They are discussing some close encounters that have …

Fame: A Special Place is the sixteenth and final episode of Fame’s first season on television and it has some interesting moments, or not, that need to be addressed.
First, oddly, Erica Gimpel isn’t in this show at all. There’s no mention of where Coco is. That’s not …

Except for a re-editing of the series pilot as a two-part story that followed this show, Hawaii Five-O: The Big Kahuna is the final episode of the first season of this long-lasting crime show. It focuses on a Hawaiian legend, the goddess of fire, Pele. She is seen …

I watched the episode of “the gone dead train” last night when it aired. It has to be one of the best episodes of this season so far. With only two episodes left, I am glad to see that they are getting back to some really good episodes. This …

From the first time I laid my eyes on a South Park episode I was instantly hooked! Seven years later I am sure not to miss a single episode of the latest season, season 12, and cannot help but wonder just how these guys keep coughing up their creative …

I really loved the prolonged introduction of all of the contestants. The show spent several minutes having the designers meet in groups, little by little. They chatted, and we listened. They met at airports, train stations, and on ferry
boats. They met two at time and …

From February 1988, The Ray Bradbury Theater: Skeleton focuses on a hypochondriac named Bert Harris (Eugene Levy). This is really one of those weird, out there stories that I’m not even sure how to describe. This guy is so nuts about trying to get a doctor to …

Larry Wilcox and Erik Estrada once again head up the action in CHiPs: Return of the Turks, a season two episode that includes guest appearances from Loyita Chapel, though her role is pretty minor, and Kaz Garas. Garas has some layers to his role. He’s Sid, an …

This was one of the first episodes I really liked of this show. It was about the year 200,000 and the way the news were transmitted. They are all on a satellite and they receive news trough some kind a machine, they have some kind a chip installed …

An Irish gang is hijacking VCRs although they don’t actually call those things VCRs back in 1973, they call them gizmos. The detectives from 125th squad arrest some of them but they want to put a stop to it so Sam went under cover with the gang to investigate. …

This episode had a lot going for it. You had escaped convicts, a deadly virus, a government cover up, all the makings of a blockbuster mini-movie. Yet somehow, the whole was less than the sum of its parts.
I was going to nitpick the idea that …

When the game show Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader came out, I didn’t think it would be any good. And, because of that, I didn’t watch it.
However, I’ve been seeing some re-runs of the show on some of our local channels and have to confess, it is …

Introduction

OK, I’ll admit, this was an interesting episode for the most part, but I do have to question exactly why the producers of this show went out of their way to attack the culture of orthodox Jews when the rapist turned out to be a child; not one of …

Have Gun - Will Travel: First, Catch a Tiger was the first show of the season for year number three. I love how it starts, with Paladin playing chess against himself. He tells Hey Boy that he doesn’t like doing that because “I always know what I’m …

This episode had promise, but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to it. It had all the makings of a solid stand alone, isolating the agents, giving them a ticking clock against an unnatural enemy, and even allowing for some character conflict, but the execution wasn’t as good as …

The Christmas Visitor, which was a cartoon production from the golden age by Halas and Batchelor, was a variation on the telling of the classic A Night Before Christmas. The color offering actually begins very classically in this regard, with the narration right from the very familiar story.
It’s …

I was watching Seinfeld last night and came across an episode I hadn’t seen before “The Pick.” Wow, this is a classic episode because there is so much going on at once.
First, you have Elaine deciding to copy one of her friends (or coworker, I’m not sure which) by …

Finally, we get a season four episode with Pete Thornton and the Phoenix Foundation. In MacGyver: On a Wing and a Prayer, Pete and a nun have been kidnapped in Barraca from some rebels. With the government bogged down in politics, MacGyver does something he never thought …

I have to say up front that when I see the name of this Max Headroom episode — Whackets — my mind goes to a classic musical called How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. In that movie, they are talking about widgets, and to me, whackets …

One of the television series which I used to hear about regularly was a series running on ABC named Boston Legal. However, when it was going on I did not have the time to watch it. Therefore what I ended up having to do was watch some of the …

I was looking forward to the season premiere of Monk this time around because I know it is the final season and I was excited about where they might take the show.
Unfortunately, I was a bit disappointed in this episode.
It starts out with Monk and Natalie standing in line …

Ahh, the first episode of South Park. For some reason it is so hilarious to watch cut paper in a stop motion episode. This episode received controversy for Cartman’s jokes, the “dildo” scene and Kyle kicking his little brother. However, a bunch of my friends and I actually stayed …

Last night’s episode of House was actually quite good. It still didn’t have a case that was overly hard to diagnose but at least Wilson got more air time than a quick cameo appearance. In fact, the entire episode was really about him and his involvement with one of …

The show family matters was a good show and I use to love watching it all the time when it was on the air. I love how the characters on the show were just average people; working average jobs but quite often dealt with major problems and this show …

In this episode, Dr. Murdoch finds out that Drew has been seeing Sherry after he told him not to and he gets expelled from the academy.
Dr. Murdoch is furious when he tells Drew that Sherry came to him and told him everything that was going on between her and …

I got home about 5:30 yesterday evening and decided to put on a re-run of That 70s Show while waiting for the Simpsons to come on. It turned out that re-run was one of the funniest episodes from any series that I have ever seen.
The episode, called Street Fighting …

As Due South winds down, it gave us a storyline twist that really proved to be quite interesting. Due South: Hunting Season guest stars Jessica Steen as Constable Maggie MacKenzie who comes to Chicago for much the same reason as Constable Benton Fraser had, to track down a …
