The X-Files: Season 2, Episode 17: End Game
Picking up on the cliffhanger from the previous episode, this takes all the momentum gained from its predecessor and manages to keep moving at a brisk pace. It manages to tie up all the loose ends and manages to up the scale of the show.
This episode had a …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Silver Convoy
While the story of Have Gun - Will Travel: Silver Convoy does very little for me, this entry from season one has some attraction because of its guest stars, specifically two of them — Nico Minardos and Barbara Luna.
Minardos has played the jovial, playboy-like Mexican in numerous TV shows …
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Shooting of Jessie May TV Show
Season four of Have Gun - Will Travel brought this Richard Boone directed episode, The Shooting of Jessie May. Jessie May Turnbow is the subject of a newspaper article that Paladin (Boone) is reading while in his San Francisco hotel where he resides. Turnbow has built a …
Smallville: Comitted

Seven Brides for Seven Brothers: I Love You Molly McGraw TV show
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers: I Love You Molly McGraw starts out with some animal angst, which I never enjoy watching. It’s Evan’s horse, Diablo, who develops a leg injury and might have to be put down. Then it’s new vet, Molly McGraw (Ann Dusenberry) who operates and …
MacGyver: Nightmares
MacGyver: Nightmares is another good episode that is a little more close to home than most of Mac’s missions. This time, the villains inject our hero with a hallucinogenic drug that will kill him within six hours unless he turns over crucial information to them, after which they’ll …
Justice League Unlimited Season One: Flashpoint
“Flashpoint” is the 23rd episode of season one of Justice League Unlimited. This is easily one of the best episodes of the season, even without a big knockdown dragout fight between the heroes and any supervillian. The episode is so great because it starts the beginning of …

Steve-O dropped by to explain his back injury that kept him from dancing the night before. He’s fine and wants to stick around. He also reminded everyone that Lacey Schwimmer, the pro, advised him not to do the flip that caused his injury. Lacey is known …

Stargate SG-1: The Ark of Truth
Stargate SG-1 aired on television for ten years, and it went through some major changes. As someone who prefers the first three seasons, the vintage years as I call them, I wasn’t at all fond of the final two years. Richard Dean Anderson, who played the lead …
The Virginian: The Executioners
When The Virginian aired originally, I just wasn’t a fan. It was a ninety minute show, in color, and starred Lee J Cobb, Doug McClure, Gary Clarke, James Drury, and Roberta Shore. Honestly, the shore bored me. I tried watching it, but I wasn’t attracted to …
The Real Ghostbusters: Season 1, Episode 17: Sea Fright
This episode was a blast to watch. Oddly enough, the Ghostbusters themselves take a backseat. They’re pretty much along for the ride as a crew of ghost pirates, or were they pirate ghosts? What was the difference again? Whatever, the ghost crew arrives in New York …
Jeremiah: Journeys End in Lovers Meeting
Jeremiah: Journeys End in Lovers Meeting was a little different in theme, and I rather enjoyed it because it dealt with belief. Belief isn’t tangible; it’s deep inside, part of the heart and soul. If you believe, you understand, and those who don’t believe always seek proof.
Kurdy …
The Jay Leno Show (the new one)
Has anyone else noticed that the new Jay Leno show is a lame version of his former show? I am not sure why, because he still manages to get great guests ( Kanye after the MTV awards debacle, Robin Williams and Halle Berry, just to name a few). But …
Family Guy TV Episode: Family Goy
As I mentioned in another review, I had an opportunity to watch some re-runs on TV last night. The first re-run was for the Simpsons but the other one was a re-run of Family Guy that I had not seen before yesterday called Family Goy.
This episode meant well, but …

Judge Judy the TV show
Judge Judy is a pretty good show and there are quite a few things that I really like about it. The first thing would be Judge Judy herself, she is very entertaining and I love her attitude because she is tough and she doesn’t take no crap from anybody …
The Twilight Zone: The Encounter TV Show
There is something strange about the episodes of The Twilight Zone that aired these last season of the series. They are strange, even for being strange. The Encounter aired in May 1964, and it has two men inexplicably having a crazy encounter that leaves both in shambles.
For …
The New Scooby Doo Movies TV Episode: The Haunted Showboat
As I think I mentioned a little while ago, my daughter was watching older cartoons on TV this past weekend and I had an opportunity to watch some of them with her.
One of the ones that really stuck out in my head was an old re-run of the show …
Simpsons Treehouse of Horror XIII
As far as the Simpsons Treehouse of Horrors episodes go, most of the later ones are kind of dumb and don’t really have a whole lot to do with Halloween. One of the few exceptions to this is Treehouse of Horrors XIII.
The first skit on the show, where Homer …
Criminal Minds: Penelope
I finally caught this episode on the ION Channel night before last. I missed it the first time it came on which really ticked me off. Which is funny, since I had never really watched Criminal Minds before. So why was I upset? It was …
Extreme Makeover: Home Edition
Overall, I am not a Reality TV fan, but there is one program that I like. It is Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. I enjoy watching the makeover team build a whole new house in just a week, it is simply amazing. But what I like the most about this …
Transformers
I had seen the television series of Transformers. I liked the series very much. When a movie was released of the same kind, I was overjoyed and expected it to be way better than the series. And it was exactly that way.
The movie revolves around the life of Sam …
Supersize Me
Supersize Me is an interesting documentary if you can catch it on TV. It brings a lot of things to light about how McDonald’s made getting junk food easy and helped create a nation of obese people. Not sayinng everyone’s obese, but you know what I mean.
This guy ate …
Star Trek the Next Generation TV Episode: The Most Toys

Ice Road Truckers: The Ace Vs. the Ice TV Show
Ice Road Truckers: The Ace Vs. the Ice was the latest installment of the 2010 season. It was a good one. My highlights, and questions, are below:

Tales of the Gold Monkey: Last Chance Louie
I like seeing Roddy McDowall getting some meat to his part and that’s exactly what happens in Tales of the Gold Monkey: Last Chance Louie. McDowall was a great actor, and while he loved to act and took on all kinds of roles that some might question, he …

Oprah: Will Smith and family 5/17/2010 TV Show
I’m not really a fan of Will Smith or his wife, Jada Pinkett-Smith, but there wasn’t anything else on TV on Monday, May 17, 2010, so I tuned into Oprah and ended up spending a pretty enjoyable hour learning about the Smith family and how they live. Remembering …
The Golden Girls
This review is about a show that is near and dear to my heart. I don’t often get “hooked” on a tv show, much less feel the need to watch the episodes over and over. In fact, more often than not, I turn the channel to a …
Masterchef: Episode 2 TV Show
Masterchef’s second episode concluded the auditions where amateur cooks have one hour to prepare food to please the three judges, including Gordon Ramsey. I was again surprise at how much I enjoyed the hour of cooking and drama. As I’ve contemplated that, I believe the reason this …
Roseanne Season Four
The fourth season of Roseanne had its high points, but it also had quite a few low points. This was the season where they introduced Mark’s brother David, which was one of the high points. I really liked this character because he added a nice little twist to the …
Once Upon a Time (ABC tv series)
I’ve always had a love for Fairy tales and Disney movies and so I was intrigued when a family member introduced “Once Upon a Time” to me. I didn’t have a lot of hope for it though since it looked a little low budget and I didn’t see how …
The Andy Griffith Show TV Episode: Emmett’s Brother-in-Law

When the episode “Mr. Monk Goes Underwater” first aired, I had to be somewhere and didn’t get a chance to watch it. Tonight, I finally got a chance and found it to be entertaining.

Diagnosis Murder: Murder at the Telethon TV Show

Monk 100th episode
It’s hard to believe the fictional detective Adrian Monk has solved 100 cases. But, it was only fitting to celebrate that milestone on Monk’s 100th episode last night. And, I have to say it was one of the better episodes that’s been on in recent history.
The great thing about …
