Bones TV Episode: The Predator in the Pool
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 …
Police Women Of Broward County
I like watching Police Women Of Broward County on the TLC network, because it is more a documentary-style show and not horrible reality TV. I love the fast pace and excitement level of this show, and how it profiles numerous women doing a job that some feel they …
The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: Bad Luck Betty
The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: Bad Luck Betty can best be described in one word — Psycho. While the show begins innocently enough with the birthday party of Socrates Pool (Christian Clemenson), it quickly diverts to drama when Socrates is kidnapped. On the trail, Brisco, Lord …
The 64th Annual Tony Awards TV Show
For me, The 64th Annual Tony Awards were not as wonderful as some reviewers I’ve read have made them out to be. I wasn’t enamored by Sean Hayes as they were. Perhaps it’s my tradition. It’s nothing against Hayes, but I wasn’t a fan of Will …
Models of the Runway: Frenemies
So much for a modeling competition without major drama. This week’s episode starts out where last week’s ended; two models at each others throats because one overreacted when she lost her designer and another one over reacted when the first one got mad at her for not keeping her …
Midori no Hibi anime
Hello, I just finished watching this anime. It was Japanese but I had English subtitles on to understand what they were saying. I’m not actively learning Japanese, but by doing this I found that I know a lot of Japanese already and can also understand a lot of it, …

Criminal Minds Season 1 TV Series
I just got off after finishing all twenty two episodes of the TV series for the third time in a row. What I like best about this series is the humor of the characters which never fail to make me laugh. In the face of death and gruesome scenarios, …
Adam-12: Log 165: Once a Cop
I really get a kick out of this 1971 episode of Adam-12 called Log 165: Once a Cop. This is the 19th episode from season three and it has some very entertaining story elements, including the fact that our heroes go on foot patrol for a while, something …

M*A*S*H: Der Tag
Most of M*A*S*H: Der Tag is focused on Frank Burns (Larry Linville) flipping out because his lover, Margaret Houlihan (Loretta Swit) is in Tokyo. Even worse, she’s talking about some male physical therapist’s with some lust in her voice. It’s enough to send Frank over the edge, …

Poltergeist
Years ago, I got to watch Poltergeist when it first came out. It scared the crap out of me.
Now that I’m older, I finally got a chance to watch it again. And, while it didn’t terrify me like it did when I was younger, it still managed to be …
The Walking Dead (Episodes 1-3)
I’ve always been a fan of zombie movies, but strangely enough, I haven’t tried to read any zombie comic books, including the critically acclaimed graphic novel series The Walking Dead by Robert Kirkman. So when it was announced that director Frank Darabont was doing a TV series out of …
CSI
CSi is kind of a strange show for me. While teh rest of the world may love it I struggle to see what makes it special or any better than any other crime show that is littering our television stations right now.
Sure it is glamourous but so is …
M*A*S*H: Showtime
During a performance by a visiting troupe in M*A*S*H: Showtime, little tidbits of story are shown. There’s really no sense to it that I could figure out, but the story segues from a few seconds of a performance to a scene of something that’s happened in the compound. …

One of the things I really like about Due South: Mask is the Indian culture and lore that comprises a big part of the story. I’m always taken with the legends and such that are part of the very rich Indian heritage. This show is full of …
M*A*S*H: Hanky Panky
B.J. Hunnicutt (Mike Farrell) becomes one of the masses instead of a lone devoted soul when he cheats on his wife in M*A*S*H: Hanky Panky from season five. While the resolution is okay, I always thought it was a shame that they had this story. It’s just …
Highway Patrol: The Judge TV Show
From May 1958, Highway Patrol: The Judge had some good elements to it, along with some really dumb bits. In short, we have an escapee from prison named Baker (Robert Courtleigh), who wants nothing more than revenge against the judge who put him behind bars.

The Simpsons: How I spent my Strummer Vacation
Well, that was an interesting Simpson’s episode. I haven’t seen “How I spent my Strummer Vacation” before but it turned out to be pretty cool.

The League of Gentlemen: Live at Drury Lane
Although at the time of this stage show, the League of Gentlemen were perhaps best known for their television program of the same name; they had their beginnings, like a great deal of comedians, on the stage. And, once you’ve taken the time to enjoy this live show, you’ll …
The Cosby Show
I can remember faithfully watching The Cosby Show every Thursday night on NBC when I was little. I always loved it although I was too little to have much of a memory of the show. Now I watch the show every Monday through Friday at 10 and 10:30 in …

That 70s Show: Eric’s Birthday
I’ve been watching a lot of the later That 70s Show episodes lately. But, I have to say the original episodes are still the best. Proof of this is the episode entitled “Eric’s Birthday.”
This is one of the great episodes, before Eric and Donna become a couple (well, actually …
NCIS season 7 episode 1 Truth or Consequences
I can’t believe we are at 7th season already and this show is still incredibly interesting. It is not like other criminal investigation shows that got really boring after a while, this on is always fresh and interesting.
The last season ended when Tony killed Ziva’s ex boyfriend and she …
ICarly TV Episode: I Go To Space
I was flipping channels yesterday afternoon and my daughter remembered seeing a commercial for a new ICarly episode; I Go To Space. I’m not a huge fan of the show, but there wasn’t much else on so I let her watch it.
Overall, it wasn’t too bad.
I don’t watch the …
Serial Experiments Lain Episode 2: Girls

Dora the Explorer
Anyone who has kids (especially girls) is probably familiar with Dora the Explorer. And, it is definitely one of my daughter’s favorite programs.
When she first started watching Dora, I admit, I wasn�t that big of a fan of the show. The plots were a little too simplistic and very …
