Grey’s Anatomy
At first, I was really sceptical about this series. I thought this was going to be one of those boring doctors on tv. I started watching it because I didn’t have anything to watch last time so I decided to buy this tv series on dvds. …
That 70s Show TV Episode: Love Wisconsin Style
I finally got to see the That 70s Show Episode “Love Wisconsin Style.” Well, I should re-phrase that, it wasn’t as though I was waiting forever to see this particular episode. I just missed the part of the series about why Donna and Kelso flee to California for a …
The Office: Branch Closing
“Whatever you can say about Michael, he wouldn’t have done that,” is the line of the episode. Watching “The Office” is about watching Michael do stupid things, but it’s good to be reminded occasionally that he has his good points and though in real like he almost certainly …
Here Come the Brides: Wives for Wakando
Here Come the Brides: Wives for Wakando from Season 1 is one of the few I’m not all that crazy about. It’s good, but it just doesn’t quite make me smile as most of the other episodes do. In Wives for Wakando, Wakando and his band of …
Whatever with Alexis and Jennifer: 9-17-10 TV Show
Whatever with Alexis and Jennifer from September 17, 2010 was another disastrous TV show. There is just so little of interest in this hour.
First of all, there is a crazy bit about changing their seating sides because of Alexis’ hair. That woman is so shallow. I’ve …
Desperate Housewives Episode: The Tornado
Desperate Housewives Episode: The Tornado is so scary and in fact, this is one of the best and most awesome episodes, which makes me shudder because out there, there might be real stuff like this happening and my heart is beating so fast and I almost cry. I really …
The Wendy Williams Television Talk Show
In a time when everyone from D-list celebrities to former supermodels has their own television talk shows, I find “The Wendy Williams Show” to be extremely refreshing. Every aspect of the show is fabulous- from its larger than life host Wendy Williams to the outrageous and super flamboyant …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Traitor TV Show
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Traitor from April 1965 was the 32nd show of the series and the last of the first year on the air. The show starred Richard Basehart as Admiral Nelson and David Hedison as Captain Crane. This series has always …
Hawthorne: A Mother Knows TV Show
This episode of Hawthorne entitled A Mother Knows begins with Isabel insisting that her baby, Moses, who is in foster care, is sick. They say that Isabel caused a scene. Then the baby goes missing, and that’s where the center point of the drama occurs.
I really was …
Smallville: Salvation TV Show
Smallville: Salvation was the 2010 season finale. This show received a surprising renewal which led to this finale and to what will take place next season. As a fan of Michael Shanks, I’m ecstatic. The Justice League which was brought back into play in an earlier …
Ghost Hunters: Fort Henry
I ended up watching the later showing of Ghost Hunters last night (so I could watch SVU on a different channel at 8) and I was concerned I was losing sleep over yet another case that wasn’t going to offer too much in terms of evidence.
Fortunately for me, I …
Family Guy: The Story on Page 1
We were watching a Family Guy re-run last night, The Story on Page 1 and I have to say it, it is easily the funniest episode I have seen both of this series and quite a few others I can think of.
To be honest, I’m not even really sure …
Louis Theroux: The Most Hated Family in America
Louis Theroux travels to Kansas and meets with the Westboro Baptist Church, home of the infamous Phelps family.
As the Phelps family travel the country, picketing the funerals of dead soldiers with their baffling propaganda; Theroux watches carefully, neither engaging them to anger at his questions, nor shying away …
The Game (CW network sitcom)
The CW racks up points for triflingness again with sitcom “The Game.” Featuring one of the Mowry twins, Wendy Raquel Robinson, and a few unnamed actors, this show is actually incredibly popular. I have even seen blogs on Mediatakeout.com wherein people were trying to save this show …
Doctor Who: Season 3, Episode 13: The Sound of Drums
The Doctor, Martha, and Jack manage to escape their supposed grim fate implied by the cliffhanger from the previous episode. One would think that they were trapped, but luckily, the Doctor manages to fix Jack’s time vortex manipulator to get them back to the 21st Century. It’s …
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast: Joan Collins TV Show
It was a Woman of the Year (and there weren’t many of those during the years of the roast) for The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast, and that woman was Joan Collins. For one of the few times in the history of the roasts, the dais was predominantly female, …
MacGyver: The Road Not Taken
I suppose season two just isn’t as fun for me as season one of MacGyver was. This is another show that just doesn’t quite tickle my fancy as some others do. It’s plenty watchable, with good moments, but it’s another old flame returning, and not just for …
MacGyver: Trumbo’s World
This episode opens up with a shirtless Richard Dean Anderson. Woman everywhere swooned. He immediately gets a hug from the woman he’s rescuing. That’s standard fare for this TV series.
The opening gambit was fun, with MacGyver and the woman geologist shooting the rapids, but it was …
Trading Spouses
I find the TV reality show Trading Spouses truly awesome. Actually, I have a very bad impression of the show when I initially started watching, but after some time, I’ve gotten the message of the show and noticing how some families featured are indeed having a bigger problem issue …
Masquerade: The French Correction
Masquerade: The French Correction is a pretty decent entry for this hour-long spy that hit the TV screen back in March 1984. However, one of the bad things is that they failed to create new ways of explaining the story. In the beginning, Lavender (Rod Taylor) always …
The Andy Griffith Show: The Perfect Female TV Show
The Andy Griffith Show: The Perfect Female is a delightful show. First, this is a good time to mention that one of the changes from this comedy series’ premier season on TV and this second year is that Elinor Donahue, who had played Andy’s girlfriend Ellie Walker, left …
Batman: The Brave and the Bold: Legends of the Dark Mite
Words can not express how amazing this episode is. It’s written by Paul Dini, which is a major indicator of the high quality you’re in for. It also features Bat-Mite voiced by Paul Reubens.
The episode is just so geekily awesome. There are references galore to the …
Dexter Season 6 Episode 7: Nebraska
I so loved Dexter Season 6 episode 7 titled “Nebraska”. As his dear friend Brother Sam passed on, Dexter (Michael C Hall) has seemed to lost the light that he found. This time, his Dark Passenger, in the form of his late brother (The Ice Truck Killer) is …
Dancing with the Stars - 3/16/09
The second episode of Dancing with the Stars continued the injury bus. I don’t know what it is about this show, but the stars are dropping like flies. First, before the show even hit the air last week, Nancy O’Dell and Jewel both had injuries that took …
Miami Vice
When I was a kid, Miami Vice was a very popular television show and I remember my parents watching it at least once a week. I never understood everything that was going on in the show but I did find it entertaining.
That’s why, when they made a movie based …
Laramie: The Last Battleground TV Show
Laramie: The Last Battleground is a fourth season episode of this wonderful western series. It’s one of the better shows, full of drama and heart both. Both John Smith and Robert Fuller are featured in their regular roles of Slim Sherman and Jess Harper, but it’s Smith …
Oprah (talk show)
Oprah is a great show. I really enjoy watching this show because I learn a lot. Oprah has some very interesting guests on the show that really do teach people many secrets. I really enjoy watching the show because it does really educated you about many things your doctor does …
Tales of the Gold Monkey: Naka Jima Kill
Just when I thought Sarah Stickney White (Caitlin O’Heaney) was out for the count and relegated to nothingness, she finally gets some action in Tales of the Gold Monkey: Naka Jima Kill. Trust me, it’s been several episodes since she did more than sing, which she doesn’t do …
MacGyver: Countdown
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 …
M*A*S*H: That Darn Kid
M*A*S*H: That Darn Kid is the final episode of season 10 and it’s a comedy focused one, unlike the previous season’s rather downbeat episode. For the second time during the series, Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda) is paymaster, a job he doesn’t look forward to at all.
Just when Hawkeye’s …
Night Court: Let it Snow
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 …
Joyful Hour
Joyful Hour is a show I ran across while surfing the dial one night, looking for something to watch. I found it on one of the religious channels that I’ve been checking out lately but haven’t really watched in the past. These channels are proving to be …
House: The Down Low
I will admit, last night’s episode of House was a refreshing episode. It had an interesting case and the side stories weren’t too bad either.
First, the case was fantastic. You have a drug dealer, who turns out to be an undercover cop, who is brought in with some sort …
From the Earth to the Moon - Part 11: The Original Wives Club
I find From the Earth to the Moon - Part 11: The Original Wives Club to be perhaps the most poignant of the 12 episodes that make up this 1998 mini-series which aired on HBO. This is the story of the wives of the original nine astronauts selected …
Doctor Who: Season 3, Episode 4: Daleks in Manhattan
The Doctor and Martha arrive in the TARDIS in New York circa November 1930. Considering the Doctor’s been steadfast about taking Martha home, I’m not sure why they came here. One could argue that the TARDIS just took them there as they seem to have no knowledge …
Surviving the Cut: Ranger School TV Show
Surviving the Cut: Ranger School is often hard to watch. This show airs on the Discovery Channel, and it’s a really deep and sometimes difficult insight into the training that men go through to become part of the elite military training force. The show opens with 338 …
Alias Smith and Jones: The Man Who Murdered Himself
Sadly, Alias Smith and Jones: The Man Who Murdered Himself is another show were Hannibal Heyes goes one way and Kid Curry another. It’s all to earn some money, but aside from the opening and the ending, the two partners are on separate track in this first season …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Alaska TV Show
In Have Gun - Will Travel: Alaska, Richard Boone’s Paladin travels to Alaska when his friend sends him a letter requesting his help. The fun part of it is that the two play a game of chess through the mail. I think Family Affair did the same …
MacGyver: The Battle of Tommy Giordano
MacGyver finds himself in the middle of a struggle between a divorcing couple who have an eight-year-old son named Tommy. We have continuity problems in this season four story. The opening voice over talks about Mac having known the mother, Mary (Penny Peyser), since he’d gone to …
Trigun Episode 15
Trigun Episode 15 has a group of outlaws called the Roderick Thieves in a saloon who attempt to intimidate Legato Bluesummers, he uses his telepathic powers to kill all of them. Vash arrives in the city of Jeneora Rock and tries to figure out who killed the outlaws. …
Due South: Mountie Sings the Blues
This show had the potential to lead to a really funny and good subplot, and while it’s great here, they really don’t do anything with it. In Due South: Mountie Sings the Blues, Constable Turnbull is in deep like with Francesca and acts on it. It’s very …
Spooks: Season 8 Episode 1
Spooks returns for another run, picking up where the last one left off.
MI5 head Harry Pearce is still in the custody of his abductors, while his team try desperately to track him down. Elsewhere, former Spook and fan favourite Ruth, is brought out of hiding when she and …
Stargate SG-1: Prometheus Unbound
Stargate SG-1: Prometheus Unbound from season eight is a show I have some conflicts about. On its own, it’s not bad, though there are issues, but when applied to SG-1 as a whole, I hate it because it’s the show that brought the character of Vala to the …
Training Mules And Donkeys
Training Mules And Donkeys with Meredith Hodges is an excellent television show on RFD TV. Meredith Hodges is famous for her work with mules and donkeys, and they claim she is a forerunner in working with these animals. Everyone wants a horse, and historically mules and donkeys were used …
House: House Training
If House were a medical drama I wouldn’t be interested in watching it, and if it were a typical soap opera type show I wouldn’t care either. I have never been interested in formulaic television. House has a formula in some shows, but the formula isn’t the show it …
Judge Mathis Television Show
I am a huge fan of the Judge Mathis Television Show. In a genre where the majority of television judges attempt to be too strict and harsh, Judge Mathis is able to maintain a feeling in his courtroom of humor and accountability. It does not matter what …
That Girl: To Each Her Own
In That Girl: To Each Her Own, the theme is all about computer dating, something that was fairly new at the time. Even though this has been around for decades now, the interest in how it works and the role it has on our society is still relevant, …
