On the DVD set, Fireball XL5: Planet of Platonia is actually the third episode, so I don’t know if maybe it was produced early and saved for a later airing or what. It aired as episode 13 in early 1963. It’s possible the DVD order is just out …

Stargate: Infinity: The Face of Evil opens with more action between Major Gus Bonner’s team and their number one enemy. It’s the same race they’ve fought from the very first episode. Frankly, I’m not fond of this evil race or the shows in which they are featured.
The …

This sixth season episode of Stargate SG-1 does nothing for me at all. It’s one of the reasons I just groan through most of the shows. This one is called Prophecy, and it focuses on Jonas Quinn, which may be why I just don’t like it.
The show ties …

Burn Notice: Breaking and Entering is the first episode of the second season, and it’s the conclusion of a sort of cliffhanger, meaning there’s a lot of history that a new viewer such as myself needs to pick up on in terms of knowing the story.
One of the things …

Friends Episode: Phoebe the Massage Assistant is really super funny, hilarious and there are just no words to describe how truly funny she is. I think she is really original and in Friends, she goes through so many paths of careers and the part where she works as a …
