Luke’s Parental Advisory (VH1 network TV show)
Who in the world gave Luther Campbell permission to have his own reality show? I will admit that I have never liked Luke’s music, even when it was popular. And not just because all he talked about were hoes and shaking booties. …

John Adams: Independence TV Show
Independence was episode 2 or 7 for the HBO mini-series, John Adams, which aired in March 2008. It has a grizzly beginning and that’s the type of thing I’m not fond of. Things heat up in Congress, though, was John Adams now participates in. This is …

M*A*S*H: Bottle Fatigue

The X-Files Scary Monsters Episode

Adam 12 - Log 101
“Log 101″ of “Adam-12″ has a scene that I’ve never forgotten because it’s just too funny. A man has his lawn stolen. I always think back to that episode of “Bewitched” where Samantha wiggles up a lawn and drives her neighbor batty.
I like the focus on Officer …
The Real Ghostbusters: Season 1, Episode 36: Hanging by a Thread

The Simpsons: Mr. Spritz Goes to Washington
I haven’t seen the Simpson’s episode “Mr. Spritz Goes to Washington” until tonight. And, I think it was fantastic.

In the …

The Universe: Season 1 Ep. 2: Secrets of the Sun: TV show
The Universe is a great series that examines features of the universe in documentary style. The show Secrets of the Sun (Season One Episode Two) was, like all the Universe episodes I’ve seen, very interesting. In college, I found Astronomy to be tedious, but if I had had episodes …

Dawson’s Creek
I think Dawson’s Creek is probably one of the worst shows I have seen in my life. This shows pisses me off. I can’t believe I ever saw this show before. The show is about a bunch of young people who live by a creek. And you guessed it one …

Gilligan’s Island - Mr. and Mrs. Who TV Show
What I first noticed about this episode is how completely the producer and screen writer can thoroughly turn people’s lives upside down, and they do a good job of it here. There is a whole lot of uncertainty throughout the show, uncertainty that causes other problems even the break …

Lipstick and Dynamite
I’m not sure what I think of the women of Lipstick and Dynamite. Their story is one of the first women who were professional wrestlers. If you want to see a story about truly strong women, in many ways then this is the perfect story.

Ghost Hunters TV Episode: Inn of the Dead
I don’t know why but I just can’t seem to find an episode of Ghost Hunters I like any more.
Last night’s episode, Inn of the Dead, should have been good. They visited an inn that not only had two suicides, they had two guests go insane too.
Of course, I …
Columbo: Negative Reaction TV Show
I adore Dick Van Dyke and believe he’s one of the most underrated performers of all time. He’s diverse — a singer, dancer, comedian, and actor, among other things. He can play charming, sweet, and vicious. He’s well rounded and agile, and he’s an intelligent fellow. …
Glee - Theatricality
And so Glee’s descent into the real world continues.
With its revolving plot lines and hit or miss ‘themes’. the once magical “Glee” has become a what was once cool, TV show. Following in the footsteps of shows like Lost, Glee seems to be a victim of its own …

In CHiPs: Name Your Price, Ponch (Erik Estrada) gets a chance to be on a game show that is something like The Price is Right. I don’t think I’m spoiling anything when I say that Ponch is right on for the entire show until he has to price …
Men of a Certain Age
I heard a lot of hype about Men of a Certain Age. Ray Romano is the primary star and there was a ton of publicity about his return to television in this show. In my opinion, he should have kept the old show going.
