I have finished watching Desperate Housewives Season 5 Episode 2 yesterday on my local TV channel and it was another fun and dazzle episode once more with lots of colorful characters filling through. For a start, you get to see Gabrielle trying so hard to get back inside the …

After watching this really ridiculous hair styling competition on the Oxygen Network the week before, I decided to try it one more time, just to see if maybe it would seem saner the second time around. Therefore, I’m reviewing Hair Battle Spectacular: Episode 2 . It began …

And Now, the Sordid Personal Bits is the third part of the six episode documentary called Monty Python: Almost the Truth - The Lawyers Cut. This show actually details a lot of the reasons why I don’t find Monty Python funny. I’m the traditional sort, and feel …

I was really excited when I found out that this episode gave more insight into what put Gideon on leave from being in the field. He made a bad call during a bombing evacuation and lost a bunch of FBI agents in the process. He actually has to enlist …

My wife decided she would rather talk to her pretend friends on Facebook last night than spend any time with me so I turned on another re-run of the show Psych that I had not seen before. This time around, it was the season 3 episode Disco Didn’t Die, …

This reality show from MTV is original in the sense that the parents get to chose who their children date, note that the sexual orientation of the child doesn’t matter as I have seen both straight and gay dates appear on this show, bearing in mind that most of …

This episode introduces Mia Dearden, a young woman who will eventually become the sidekick of Green Arrow named Speedy, which Ollie calls her as she’s driving his car. Honestly, I”d rather see more of the heroes that have already been introduced as opposed to constantly bringing in new …

Stargate SG-1: Ripple Effect is hands down the best episode of the entire final two seasons of this series. While not perfect, it was fun, and it let us revisit with much-loved characters on the show.
In essence, SG-1 gets diverted to an alternate reality, as do numerous other …

Laramie: Midnight Rebellion features Robert Fuller as Jess Harper, and it’s a pretty dramatic hour for this superbly done television western. The ending has a lot of action and poignancy to it, and it does get intense at times.
However, let’s start with the opening scene from this show …

From 1989, The Hillside Stranglers is almost as frightening as the actual events that this movie is based on. I lived through these events, watching them unfold on television, and it was a scary time. I would have been terrified had I lived in that area where …

This unit is definitely way better than the previous WebTv. Don’t get me wrong, I still have my old WebTv. The only reason I keep it is for nostalgia, not usability. It is still too slow. I was able to connect my MSNTV 2 to my broadband network …

I’ve been watching Days of Our Lives for years. Since I was a kid actually since daytime programming isn’t very child friendly. So after all these years of watching Days of Our lives I have to say I hate this show.
The actors are terrible. As with …

On its own merits, this episode is not half bad. The one major drawback is that the plot is very, very similar to that of the last episode. While comparison between this and “Born Again” were inevitable, I can’t help but feel like the producers made a …

The Family Guy series is so far the best animated cartoon ever! This is just non-stop laughter. Even some of the quotes are almost impossible to stop laughing at. The flashbacks are super humorous also. I think those are the two factors Family Guy grasped completely; pauses and flashbacks. …

I love P.G. Wodehouse. I think I first discovered him through the 1990 British Television Series “Jeeves and Wooster” starring Stephen Fry as the well-known British gentleman’s gentleman and Hugh Laurie as the bumbling, fumbling Bertie Wooster. However, I may have discovered the books first. I’m just not sure.
Happily, …

Synopsis: A new neighbor moves by Spongebob, Patrick and Squidward and, realizing the neighbor is as stuffy as he is, Squidward attempts to keep the new neighbor to himself and convince him to remain in the neighborhood.
What I liked about this episode: Spongebob and Patrick really don’t have a …

Star Trek: The Changeling is another nifty show from the beginnings of this science fiction series. It’s a favorite that I never tire of seeing. Basically, what we have is the Enterprise encountering a highly sophisticated computer that calls itself Nomad. It’s a probe long thought …

I like watching The Twilight Zone: Death Ship, though it’s not a favorite. Still, with Jack Klugman and Ross Martin in the leads, it’s good stuff. It’s also another intriguing plot surrounding death that is thought provoking, though not in terms of relaying a message, but rather, …

M*A*S*H: Mail Call Again is an interesting episode dealing with the most recent mail call for the 4077th. The big news is that Major Frank Burns (Larry Linville) gets a letter from his wife saying that she wants a divorce. It seems she’s been told about Frank’s …

I just smile when I see the every day qualities that are so real in this show about the life of these space puppets. In Fireball XL5: A Day in the Life of a Space General, Lieutenant Ninety is a little overtired and ends up getting yelled at …

The first story of the second season of Highway Patrol was called The Search and aired in October 1956. It’s a pretty basic story, I’m afraid. It’s all about a murderer who is trying to avoid capture. He’s a charming sort and manages to get people …

I love stories about the past and mysteries in general so I tend to be thrilled when the two genres combine. That is what attracted me to a television series such as “Mysteries at the Museum”. I’m able to watch a series that reveals the secrets behind certain relics I …

The Andy Griffith Show: Wedding Bells for Aunt Bee, a second season show that aired in April 1962, just isn’t a favorite of mine. I’ve never liked it, even though there are a couple of good scenes that I do like. It’s just the concept with all …

So I was going back through some of the series that I used to watch in the 90s as a young child and found some things that I haven’t seen or heard of for a very long time. One of them I remember was a series called “Big Bad …

This episode of The Beast called My Brother’s Keeper was directed by Lisa Niemi, wife of series star Patrick Swayze. The producers had been wanting her to direct an episode all season, but she was there to support her husband as he battled cancer while starring in the …

The second part of the finale for this season’s edition of Project Runway was both boring and exciting. It entertained and blahed. The reason? Well, in my opinion, I think it had too much time allotted to it. It was a full 2 hours and just …

As I have mentioned before, I’m a big fan of watching Gilligan’s Island re-runs on weekends. But, even though I do enjoy most of the episodes (I’ve seen every one several times), there are some that just aren’t as good as others. One of these is the episode “Forward …

Jean Hagen guest stars in The Andy Griffith Show: Andy and the Woman Speeder, a classic show about a small town, a big city female, and the law. After a cute bit about fishing that includes Andy Griffith as Sheriff Andy Taylor, Ron Howard as Opie Taylor, Don …

Except the fact that the Russians were again bad guys who wanted to use a small boy to kill American politicians I generally liked this episode.
An airplane blew up in the airport and some very important person got killed in the way so Parker is sent 7 days back …

Chasing Mummies: Discovered opens with a man being injured, though that’s about the only mention of this. It’s like instant drama with no follow through.
However, there was something exciting about this hour and that was seeing the 123rd pyramid being discovered. Apparently, it had been found under …

I remember actually watching the premier episode of One Life to Live. It became my favorite soap opera and remained that way for many years. Then the show turned its back on its history, and now I may watch five shows a year, if that. One …

Have Gun - Will Travel: Saturday Night is from the fourth year of this western series. As always, Richard Boone stars as Paladin, gunfighter for hire. This is one of the episodes where the action begins with Paladin not in San Francisco, where he lives at the …

Naruto: Shippuden starts when Naruto has finally returned from his trainings with Jaraiya, which is roughly two and a half years right after the ending of the Naruto anime. Uzumaki Naruto now has found …

Episodes like the Eagles episodes of MacGyver are very hard for me to watch. Like Michael Landon, Richard Dean Anderson believes in supporting animal life. He’s big into that. He works actively on various causes to help maintain nature. It’s one of the wonderful things …

Another installment in The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror specials, the episode begins with “Keeping it Kodos”, a bit similar to a ’90s sitcom complete with an audience laugh track. It continues onto its first story “The Ned Zone”, where Ned has received a concussion as a result and …

The Twilight Zone: Valley of the Shadow is very enjoyable to watch. It’s a mystery that held my interest and kept me guessing, all the way to the end.
Ed Nelson is the primary guest star, playing a reporter named Philip Redfield who passes through a small town. …

Well, it’s about time this series gave Jedi Master Mace Windu the spotlight that he deserves. “Liberty on Ryloth” is the final episode in the ‘Ryloth’ trilogy, following “Storm Over Ryloth” and “Innocents of Ryloth”, and it all centers around Mace Windu being a badass as he commandeers a …

Did you guys watch Ugly Betty Season Finale? Well, I did on my local TV channel and it was a good one. Usually, due to time constraints, I sometimes have to skip watching Ugly Betty, without a choice. But I made it a point to watch the …

Hawthorne: The Match was a very intriguing and sometimes difficult show to watch because the subject matter was emotional and just tugged at your heartstrings. The big issue centered around the need to find a kidney match for two little girls, twins, who both had the need. …

In this episode, it continues from the previous episode where the rogue vampire seduces Karl to kill and she escapes. Drew gets help just in time, but things don’t look to good for Dillon. Murdoch locks Karl in the cage, but he doesn’t care because he has no remorse …

I have to admit to having quite mixed feelings about this particular TV series - although the show can be quite riveting at times, some of its subplots in the past have proven to lack satisfying resolution, the gore and sexuality can be excessive to the point of inducing …

The first episode of Top Shot fascinated me enough that I tuned in for this second episode. I love the host, Colby Donaldson of Survivor the Australian Outback fame, who is well suited to this outdoorsy show which strives to find the best shooter of the bunch. …

Don’t Stop Believing is a show I saw for the first time today. It’s another talent competition, but I actually like the way this one is set up.
In the first part of this series, six groups compete each week. The weekly winner goes to the final. …

The Doctor joins the crew of UNIT (United Nations Intelligence Task Force) to aid …

I’m not sure if Best Week Ever is still on televsion, but “Best Week Ever” was a series which would be aired every week on VH1. I didn’t pay much attention to it at first since I realise that many of these programmed on Vh1 tend to be nothing …

Well, I had time to watch TV again at lunch today and sat down to watch a re-run of Home Improvement I remember seeing a while ago but didn’t remember much about.
This one, entitled He Ain’t Heavy, He’s Irresponsible, has Tim’s brother revealing that he is thinking about leaving …
