Due South: Dead Men Don’t Throw Rice
Due South: Dead Men Don’t Throw Rice was a somewhat strange episode that was still oddly fascinating. In the course of working on a case and trying to find out information on the crime and wrongdoers, Canadian Constable Benton Fraser, played by Paul Gross who is also the …
In the Flesh (BBC Three Drama)
Just a few years ago vampires were all the rage in pop culture, especially with everything related to teenagers. It all started with Stephenie Meyer’s series of books “Twilight”, which flew off the shelves, and continued to a blockbuster movie series that starred Hollywood’s hottest young elite. Soon came …
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Day of the Bad Man
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Day of the Bad Man is from season three and is the 17th episode of that year. Directed by acclaimed actress, Ida Lupino, the show is high on comedy, rather than its usual drama. It revolves around the character played by …

From season two, The Andy Griffith Show: Aunt Bee’s Brief Encounter focuses on Frances Bavier’s character of Aunt Bee Taylor. She becomes very fond of a handyman named Henry Wheeler. He’s jovial and fun, and the two senior citizens enjoy spending time together.
There’s just one thing about …
Stargate Atlantis: Whispers
From September 2008, Stargate Atlantis: Whispers, episode 7 of season 5, again brings back the delightful character of Dr. Carson Beckett, played by Paul McGillion. They also have something new, an all female SG team. Now that’s a first.
The good and bad of Whispers from my point …
The King of Queens
I have always enjoyed The King of Queens TV show. It is one of the best TV shows ever made in my view. I think this show is very funny. Leah Remini does a great job of playing Carey in the show. She is very pretty and sexy. I …
Voyagers!: All Fall Down
Voyagers!: All Fall Down just isn’t a show I’m much interested in and the reason for that is pretty simple. It’s two-thirds boxing, and I do not like boxing. I’ve watched it from time to time and even followed the careers of a boxer here and there, …
Doctor Who: Season 4, Episode 8: The Unicorn and the Wasp
This is one of those archetypal Doctor Who episodes where the pair travel to some point in history, meet up with a historical figure, and then have an adventure. I can’t help but notice that they all tend to be writers. First we had Dickens, then we …
Naruto Episode 17 Subbed
Naruto is finally releasing the power of the nine tails and with chakra swirling all around him and taking on a life of its own this should be an awesome, action packed episode. Or so one would think if one wanted to be wrong. All of Haku’s attacks are …
Life on Mars season 1 Episode 9 The Dark Side Of The Mook
The squad has been taken in for questioning about the disappearance of Ray’s brother Eddie Carling.
Sam was one of the last people to see him. The episode takes us back to the period of the 7th episode when Sam has found an address in his old cases so when …
Mr. Monk Gets Lotto Fever
As far as Monk episodes go, Mr. Monk Gets Lotto Fever was actually one of the worse ones I’ve seen.
While the side-plot of Natalie getting a job as television’s lotto girl was somewhat interesting, the reality was the show itself was a bit cruddy because there was really no …
Stargate: Infinity: Reality TV Show
Here’s a show to combat video games. Stargate: Infinity: Reality focuses on a world where the inhabitants are found in an auditorium, all playing some virtual reality game and turning into vegetables in the process. I liken this plot device to Stargate SG-1’s The Gamekeeper, where SG-1 …
Big Brother - August 1, 2010 TV Show
Big Brother sometimes drives me batty. I’m nowhere near as hooked as I was during its first season. In fact, I’m not hooked at all anymore. I can barely even remember the contestants’ names. Were there anything else opposite it, I wouldn’t watch, and when …
The Fall Guy: Guess Who’s Coming to Town? TV Show
By the time of The Fall Guy: Guess Who’s Coming to Town?, Doug Barr’s Howie Munson’s doing more in the stunt world. He’s done a few jobs that we’ve seen as the series has gone along, and in this show, he’s now flying planes, although he slams Colt …
Everest - Beyond the limit season 3
Being a huge fan of the first two seasons of Everest - Beyond the limit, I have been waiting for a long time to see this new season.
The first 3 episodes of the show aired on the 27th of december which I found a little odd. Why release …
Surviving the Cut: Special Forces Diving TV Show
The latest episode of Surviving the Cut was called Special Forces Diving which dealt with the Special Forces Combat Diving Course. These personnel are already Special Ops trained, and that in itself takes a great deal of courage and strength. This is even more intense.
There were 53 …
Here Come the Brides: One to a Customer
Here Come the Brides: One to a Customer is an interesting episode from the first season of this ABC series which centers on a newcomer who wants to get married. The twist is that the man is Mormon and he doesn’t want just one wife, but four or …
Alias Smith and Jones: Alias Smith and Jones (pilot)
Alias Smith and Jones is a lighthearted western that was very much like the theatrical super film, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, which I also loved. In the TV show, Pete Duel is Paul Newman; that is, Hannibal Heyes is the equivalent to Butch Cassidy. That makes …
Blacke’s Magic: Address Unknown
It’s the guest stars who make Blacke’s Magic: Address Unknown work for me. They are an interesting collection of talent. Sam Groom, who has from time to time been confused with the more successful Sam Elliott, has a nice role here as Dale Richmond, friend of Alexander …
Sea Hunt: Starting Signal TV Show
From September 1961, Starting Signal is the 35th episode of Sea Hunt’s fourth and last year on television. This under water adventure is another one that is related to a special United States Coast Guard mission.
While working on a project, things go wrong. It has to do …
Scrubs The Complete Seventh Season
This was not a bad season. So far, not my favorite, but definitely a good tie-in for what was done and what is to come. The fact that I continue to even watch Scrubs is proof enough that it is both clever, cute, and hilarious enough to win over …
Warehouse 13 season 1 episode 5 Elements
This episode was based on a really great idea; a robe that makes you walk trough the walls. Isn’t that an interesting artefact? I really find it interesting although I am quite sure it would be used for bad purposes if it existed.
Calaudia, the girl who kidnapped Artie in …
MacGyver: The Enemy Within
MacGyver: The Enemy Within makes me chuckle, not from the show, but how the same names are used for episodes. Richard Dean Anderson would be in another episode called The Enemy Within about ten years after this one, when he starred in Stargate SG-1.
In this episode of MacGyver, …
MXC TV show
This is a unique show on Spike. It’s actually a Japanese game show that relies on strange physical challenges and obstacle courses. While this might be entertaining in its own right, the true entertainment value of the show comes from its dubbing. They’ve thrown out any …
Stargate: Infinity: Coming Home TV Show
I really like the opening part of Stargate: Infinity: Coming Home which deals with the age old problem of prejudice. One of the members of Major Bonner’s team is named Ec’co. He’s a green, rather unusual alien being. However, he’s also a half breed. His …
M*A*S*H: April Fools
The final show of the eighth season, and the last one to feature more than 20 episodes, is M*A*S*H: April Fools. Though it’s only March, the 4077th has begun its pranks early. All of these are pretty funny. However, Colonel Sherman Potter (Harry Morgan) asks his …
Survivor television show
Survivor is a television show where contestants get dropped off in the middle of nowhere. They get divided in two tribes and compete for rewards and immunity from elimination. They then eliminate each other so that there is only two left. The previously eliminated contestants then …
Simpsons - That Birdie In the Window
This was one of those Simpsons episodes that I just say, were they really so out of ideas that they must have just looked out a window and saw a bird and that’s where the idea of the episode came from. Even if the whole idea of using a …
The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: Stagecoach
The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: Stagecoach would have been better with a little different mix of stagecoach passengers. Basically, Brisco is taking a prisoner to Mexico on a stagecoach on which there is a killer. The viewers learn this first, thanks to a scene with Socrates …
Extreme Homemaker home edition
I really like this show because it is inspiring. They remake people homes over. It’s exciting to watch as well as inspiring. I love watching at the end when the people see their finished house.
Most of the time there is either something wrong with the house, it isn’t …
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast: Redd Foxx (#2) TV Show
This show was the second time that Redd Foxx was an honoree as a celebrity to be roasted on The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast. Taped at the MGM in Las Vegas, Foxx was the Man of the Hour. Now I’m not a fan of Redd Foxx at …
Pokemon (TV Show) - Bye, Bye Butterfree (Episode)
“Bye, Bye Butterfree” is an episode of the “Pokemon” television series. Although this is a farewell episode for one of Ash’s Pokemon, Butterfree, I don’t feel it was very effective. This is only the twenty-first episode of the series and Butterfree never was really used by Ash in particularly …
Ghost Hunters TV Episode: Hotel Haunts Unleashed
Synopsis: The TAPS team investigates a hotel in South Dakota that reportedly had a bride leap to her death on her wedding night.
What I liked about this episode: I thought the addition of Jason’s dog, Maddie was an interesting one; simply because it is something you don’t see on …
MASH Series- DVD Boxed Set
MASH was one of my all time favorite series and when it ended, I watched, with millions of other Americans as the Finale played. No one was really sure if we would ever see Hawkeye and the rest of the crew as they muddle through the day to day …
Emergency!: Dilemma
Emergency!: Dilemma began with a really cool directorial shot of the engine and squad heading for their first response of the show. It was an overhead shot that was never exactly repeated, though other similar shots were done in later years. This series employed a lot of …
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Bird of Time TV Show
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Bird of Time, an episode which aired early in the western’s sixth season on the air, went right into the action, avoiding one of the traditional San Francisco openings. I always lament the lack of the fancy Paladin beginnings. They add …
Trinity Blood episode 17
As the past is woven into being, it can not be undone, nay stopped as it must happen as it has and will happen. A oath of vengeance can spell out terror to the wrong person who hears its chilling embrace on reality. Or can ruin the hopes of …
The Cosby Show. A TV Sitcom
For those of us who grew up during the late 1980’s and early 1990’s there is no more memorable sitcom than “The Cosby Show”. To me “The Cosby Show” was a big part of my childhood and a sitcom that still reigns as my favorite sitcom of all …
Star Trek: The Ultimate Computer TV Show
Definitely one of the best of the three year run, Star Trek: The Ultimate Computer is terrific. It’s one I’ve never forgotten and it’s a show that has a lot of layers to it. The basic plot is that Richard Daystrom (William Marshall), a one time wunderkind …
House TV Show
A few years ago, I ended up almost accidentally watching the show House when it first came on the air. And, I immediately fell in love with it.
I don’t normally like medical dramas (I never saw an episode of ER) but this one was something different because it was …
Criminal Minds Season 1 TV Series
I just got off after finishing all twenty two episodes of the TV series for the third time in a row. What I like best about this series is the humor of the characters which never fail to make me laugh. In the face of death and gruesome scenarios, …

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex: 2nd Gig Episode 3 has Section 9 investigating Mr. Todokoro, who is rumored to be managing former Secretary General Yakushima’s assets. He’s worried about a thief named Cash Eye stealing his money during an exclusive high society party.
This episode was pretty …
Avatar: The Last Airbender: Book 2, Episode 19: The Guru
Aang begins his training, playing Luke Skywalker to the guru’s Yoda. This show is known for incorporating Eastern mythology and that really comes into play here as Aang masters each of his chakras. I know, the show’s short on time, but it seems like he masters them …
The Notorious Ghost Hunters!
Want to watch a show that really debunks the idea of Ghosts and then turns around and lets you know if you are really haunted! Then Ghost Hunter on Scifi TV is your show of shows. Their organization is called TAPS and they investigate the paranormal otherwise known as …
