Why is it athletes look at acting as their fallback occupation? Was it Joe Namath who started the trend? I could handle Joe Willie. He tried and he got better, but Terry Bradshaw? Skilled at football, yes, but on the screen, he’s a disaster. …

Hawaii Five-O: Face of the Dragon is part medical drama and part spy caper. Combined, Hawaii Five-O: Face of the Dragon just doesn’t do a whole lot for me. I never have liked the opening scene. It sets up the drama naturally enough, but it’s just …

Well, I thought the show House was finally starting to get things back on track a bit with the episode The Choice. But, then I watched the one called Baggage last night and realized it still hasn’t learned.
I used to watch this show religiously because I loved the medical …

Abs-CBn has a new current events program shown very late at night every Mondays. It is called Harapan, this show is hosted by Korina Sanchez and Ted Failon. I got to see one segment of the show and they are talking about the metro train project of the President …

Star Trek: The Next Generation - Heart Of Glory is easily one of my favorite episodes from the first season of the show and of Star Trek in general. What makes this episode just so good for me? Well for one, this episode offers a story that is thoroughly …

MacGyver: The Gauntlet is another episode with lots of action in it. MacGyver is once again sent overseas, to South America, to rescue a photographer, played by Robin Curtis. She’s got the goods on a couple of bad guys, and they know it. Hence, the big …

I found this episode of the popular 1990s American television show “The X-Files” very interesting since it covered the danger of online dating in a very twisted and scary way. This was because this episode, “2Shy” was about a serial killer who meets his victims online, and then …

Here Come the Brides: A Dream That Glitters features the colorful talents of Will Geer as Benjamin Pruitt, Candy’s grandfather. The title comes from his personal dream, one that Candy and her true love, Jeremy, eventually work hard to bring about.
The opening scene had some fun to it …

This was an interesting challenge this week because the show focused solely on the runway and had the contestants perform in an actual runway show in front of a live audience of thousands.
Ben, who has struggled throughout the entire competition during runways, actually won this week. But, none of …

I ended up watching one more episode of the show Futurama last night with my daughter (I told her I would before making her go to bed since I hadn’t seen her all day). The episode we watched; Hell is Other Robots, was OK. But, it wasn’t as good …

„Highlander” episode two of the first season is titled „Innocent Man”. Duncan MacLeod, 400 year old Immortal, accompanied with his mortal girlfriend is on his way to see his old time friend. He’s living in the middle of nowhere and has been out of The Game for a long …

I loved the Mission: Impossible series when it first aired, though I admit that when some of the originals left the show, I stopped watching with regularity. The episode, My Friend, My Enemy, is from the fifth season when Leonard Nimoy was a regular, playing the role of …

MacGyver: Pirates has some fun stuff in it. Actually the best part for me was when MacGyver was trapped on a sinking boat and had to try and get out before drowning. It was quite a challenge and made for an exciting scene.
There’s a good cast providing …

With the tensions between Cadimus labs and the Justice League increasing it was time for Cadimus to make another swing at the Justice League, but without superheroes of their own the only place they have to turn to are villains.
In “Task Force X” the government suspends the sentences of …

I just started watching the hit show True Blood from HBO and so far it has been a fun ride. If blood and really explicit sexual scenes don’t make you squeemish or you enjoy that than this show is for you.
The characters are easy to digest and the story …

I have a tendency to forget about shows like Everybody Loves Raymond. See the thing with it is that it’s a great solid, funny show but it’s old and so you don’t really get to see it as often as when it first airs but every time I …

For a show that got canceled twice before, Family Guy had been doing a great job in giving exactly what it had promised, 30 minutes of funny jokes and scenes where you ask yourself what movies they took that from. Yet, …

Star Trek: The Next Generation - Ensign Ro is an episode that I enjoy, although it is an episode that I also have some complaints about. For one, I do wish that the writers would have explained either in this episode or a future episode just what happened on …

Curb hits a high note with this episode, reminiscent of some truly awful misunderstandings like “The Doll” amongst others. When Larry is bothered by the nine year old daughter of a crew person, he finds himself in a text friendship with her, which at first bothers him, but later …

This episode investigates only one case, but it is extra intense. This time the crime scene is in the first class on a plane. They only have 24 hours to solve the case before the FBI takes over the case and the crime scene “flies away.” What makes the …

If you purchase the 30th Anniversary Special Edition DVD of Blazing Saddles, you will find nestled within its handful of special features the pilot episode of the never televised series Black Bart. I was very interested to see this myself, considering that Blazing Saddles is one of my …

Some day ago I saw a weekly TV show in the channel STAR ONE, named THE GREAT INDIAN LAUGHTER CHALLENGE. It’s the best comedy show I’ve ever seen in the history of Indian television. SEKHAR SUMAN, the most popular Indian TV star and the former cricketer SIDHU, the …

Soap, an ABC television series, is the greatest use of the 22 minute sitcom in the history of television. The cast is absolutely stellar, an ensemble of extraordinary talent that ranges from the great Billy Crystal to Cathryn Damon and Diana Canova, actresses with strong backgrounds in theater. …

Wow, that had to be the most predictable Project Runway finale ever. Arina entered it as the obvious favorite and, no surprise, she ended up winning it.
Of course, I have to say, compared to other seasons, this finale was a bit weak. Carol Hannah had a bit of an …

Some later Simpsons episodes aren’t as good as the earlier ones. But the episode “Lard of the Dance” is actually quite interesting.
I don’t know if it’s one of the funnier episodes I’ve seen but I like how they tackle the issue of how young girls want to grow up …

This episode really has an awkward title if we know that Deux means two in french. At first I was really wondering why would the producer entitled this epsiode the way he did bu then I realised that it is because of a man who shows up and has …

Season nine of Stargate SG-1 comes to a dramatic close with an episode entitled Camelot. Naturally, it’s a cliffhanger with the conclusion being the opener of the tenth season.
The worst thing about the episode is Claudia Black’s return as Vala, standing very pregnant as she watches destruction unfold. …

From February 1982, The Fall Guy: Ladies on the Ropes is one I’d just rather forget to be honest. There are some shows where either the topic or just the theme in which a story is placed doesn’t excite men, and this is definitely one of those.
Basically, Bail …

Stargate SG-1: Upgrades is often described as just two little words — Tok’ra Spice. As I’ve said before, with a new producer at the helm, the show was no longer the great show of exploration and character dynamics. Now it was a soap opera, and early in …

Just as Zuko is about to begin teaching Aang the art of firebending, he finds out that he can no longer firebend. Despite his best efforts, he’s got nothin’.
Toph theorizes that Zuko was using his anger and hate as fuel and with that gone, he has nothing to draw …

From February 1963, Laramie: The Fugitives was an episode from the show’s fourth and final season. This series is my all time favorite and it really should have gone on longer. Ratings were good, so it’s confusing as to why it was cancelled.
The show opens with Slim …

This episode is a gem. If ever there was a doubt in anyone’s mind that this show ruled, this episode eliminated it, all of it.
I mean come on, it’s a lavish superhero musical with a villain voiced by Neil Patrick freakin’ Harris. What more do …

The Andy Griffith Show: Convicts-at-Large has some funny moments to it, even though it’s not high up on my personal list of favorite episodes. It’s a third-year show that focuses on the bad luck of Deputy Barney Fife (Don Knotts) and Floyd the barber (Howard McNear) end up …

I watched the pilot for Running Wilde just to say that I’m giving some of the new comedies a chance. I really don’t like today’s sitcoms. They are rude and crude and so off color that they make me cringe. I’m much more into the traditional …

The season premier of Criminal Minds, called The Longest Night, picks up where last season left off. I have to be honest and say that as much as I have loved this hour long drama, this show is really approaching un-watchable for me. Actually, it’s pretty much …

One of my favorite comedy series at this point is “Mad TV” which I have noticed is broadcast on the channels Comedy Central and Fox. I do not watch it on Fox though, since I’ve noticed that it seems to be broadcast there when I am in the middle …

Big Brother 11 is the newest season for the Big Brother show. It aires every Teusday, Thursday and Sunday during the summer of 2009. I have been watching this show for years and this season is no exception.
At first I was underwhelmed with the new cast. Not too much …

Incredibly, somehow, Dean Martin convinced the acclaimed actress Bette Davis to be roasted on his TV show as the Woman of the Week. That just astounds me, but she did it, appearing on this episode ofThe Dean Martin Comedy Hour.
Oddly, I wasn’t that thrilled with Dean’s opening remarks, …

After a relatively slow (with the exception of the premiere episode) first half of its third season, “True Blood” seem to finally pick up speed in the seventh episode of the season, where blood flows freely, characters die and alliances change.
The best part of the episode was probably the …

I watched the X-Files episode “Eve” at about three separate times. However I was unable to watch the episode fully until very recently. I wouldn’t call it my favorite episode of the popular 1990s American television series “The X-Files” but I think it was an interesting episode nonetheless because …

OK I used to hate American Idol. I think this show is just really a way to make someone famous, and have record labels ready to sell their music to the masses. And since the viewers get emotionally close to certain artists they will go out and buy their CD …

The 39th show of Sea Hunt’s second year was also the last of the season. It was entitled The Raft. The premise was the deep sea diver Mike Nelson as played by Lloyd Bridges went to a location off the coast of the Channel Islands to find …

The Capone episode of The Beast stands out because it featured Lou Diamond Phillips as an agent who is deep under cover. The problem is that the man has been in his role for four very long years, during which his wife divorced him. In essence, as …

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 61 has Hohenheim enacting his plan to counter Father after he killed everyone in Amestris to obtain the power of God. They return the souls of the Amestrians to their bodies and begin attacking Father.
This episode is one of the most incredible episodes I’ve …

Recently, I acquired Wagon Train - The Color Season DVD set. This set contains every color episode of Wagon Train, which was essentially the 1963-64 TV series. All shows were ninety minutes long. This was the year that Robert Fuller joined the cast after a four-year …

I started watching season 4 of the show Ghost Hunters last night and one of the episodes, Two to Tango, was someone interesting even though they didn’t really find much.
The first case had them going to the Burlington County Prison in New Jersey with Tango’s dad William after he …

The Veil was a short lived anthology series from 1958. I haven’t seen any of them before now, and I find it to be an intriguing broadcast. Boris Karloff hosts the show, and it begins with him doing his introduction in front of a huge fireplace, like …

I got done with work early yesterday (family thing yesterday afternoon) and, since I had some free time before we had to leave, I ended up watching part of a Destination Truth marathon on TV. One of the episodes was from an earlier season and I hadn’t seen it …

I had the house to myself for a bit yesterday and found myself watching an old Batman television episode; “The Bookworm Turns.”
This isn’t my favorite 1960s TV program but it is good for a few laughs and I will admit the episode was somewhat interesting. Basically, you have the …
