MacGyver: GX-1
MacGyver: GX-1 once again brings back Elyssa Davalos as Nikki Carpenter. As I recall, there was some thought about making her a regular, both as a competent agent for the Phoenix Foundation and as a potential love interest for MacGyver. As I also recall, it just didn’t …
Ghost Hunters: Fortuna & Topton
I don’t know why but, even though I wasn’t the one driving to Philadelphia, I felt like I wasted a great deal of time watching the Ghost Hunters episode Fortuna & Topton.
I can see why Brian is no longer their case manager. He gets them some sucky cases. And, …

CSI New York Season 4 Episode 21
The beginning of the episode immediately grabbed my attention. It was just so unusual, I have not seen a setting like this used before. There are many shows where a team needs to examine the evidence without access to the lab or in an enclosed environment. But to be …

Monk TV Episode: Mr. Monk and the Birds and the Bees
Well, I didn’t know for sure if I would like the Monk episode Mr. Monk and the Birds and the Bees when I saw it this past weekend. But, I have to admit, it was much better than expected.

Highway Patrol: Anti-Toxin TV Show

The X-Files: Season 1, Episode 16: Young at Heart
This was a surprisingly traditional episode of the show. I don’t mean that in the sense that it was a “monster of the week” formula show, but that the plot itself is surprisingly mundane. Yeah, there’s a bit of science fiction, what with the reverse aging procedure, …
The New Adventures of Old Christine Season 1
The first season of the New Adventures of Old Christine was a really funny one though not as funny as I remembered. It took me quite awhile to buy the season on DVD because it’s fairly expensive for 15 episodes that are less than 30 minutes long. When I …
Phineas and Ferb: Raging Bully
Well, that was a cute episode of the cartoon Phineas and Ferb. I wasn’t expecting much from an episode entitled Raging Bully and about thumb wrestling but it ended up being much better than I expected. In fact, I think it was downright entertaining.

Gilligain’s Islnad - Feed the Kitty TV Show
Here we go with Gilligan and his affinity towards all living things. This quality in Gilligan says a lot about his character, and his respect for life. I really like this episode even if his feelings towards the king of the beast introduce a danger element to everyone or …
Mr. Monk and the Panic Room
One of the first Monk episodes I ever saw was “Mr. Monk and the Panic Room.” But, until tonight, I hadn’t seen the episode in a long time and really didn’t remember much about it; including who did the murder and how. So, it was great getting a chance …
The X-Files: Season 1, Episode 11: Eve
I remember seeing this episode years back and not being all that impressed with it. Watching it again, however, it’s really quite good. The plot is intriguing, the mystery isn’t easily solved and it keeps you guessing throughout. It’s also quite creepy and atmospheric, using a …
High School Musical 3 (2008)
It was my first time watching the series of “High School Musical” movie and probably why so I can provide a beter perspective as to whether this movie is good or not.
Let’s review on the strengths of the movie first. The movie had really good visuals - bright …
Diagnosis Murder: My Baby Is Out of This World TV Show
Boy, do I not like this show, Diagnosis Murder: My Baby Is Out of This World. In fact, in my view, it was a horrible way to end a TV season. I think they should have reversed this one with the one that aired before it, which …
Law & Order SVU: Authority
I have to say, as much as I love Robin Williams the comedian, he definitely has the ability to play villains so sinister you’ll want to see him more of those roles.
Last night’s Law & Order: SVU episode (entitled Authority) is the perfect example. Williams plays a man who …
Jamie Oliver TV programme
I think Jamie Oliver is a breath of fresh air. He throws the rule book out the window when it comes to cooking and he is pretty cute too.
I like the gap in his front teeth, his cheeky accent and hi little messed up boy hair… it helps that …
The Simpsons Season 3 Episode 20 Colonel Homer
The Simpsons go to the movie theater, and they watch separate movies. The kids watch something else, and Homer and Marge something else. Homer is very annoying throughout the movie, which finally makes Marge to yell at him in front of the entire audience. This hurts Homer a lot. …
Highway Patrol: Mistaken Identity TV Show

The Whole Truth: Pilot TV Show
The pilot for the new TV series, The Whole Truth, was just okay in my opinion. The show features Rob Morrow as a fast paced defense attorney, along with Maura Tierney as the lead prosecutor. This gives the viewer both sides of the story, so to speak.
At …

I don’t get many opportunities to watch the show Cold Case. But, i took part of the day off to take my daughter to the fair (which was ruined by the rain) and ended up watching a re-run of it today “Volunteers.” It was pretty decent.
The show starts out …
Star Trek: Tomorrow Is Yesterday TV Show
I’ve always liked Star Trek: Tomorrow Is Yesterday, an episode where future returns to the past. In this outing, the Enterprise goes back in time to the late 1960’s Earth. It’s a neat twist.
Roger Perry normally bores me in his roles, but I like this portrayal of …
The Twilight Zone: The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street TV Show
I don’t like watching The Twilight Zone: The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street, not because the show is bad, but because it’s so accurate. The show is very well done and has some very believable acting within it. I just hate seeing the harshness of man …

The Office: Frame Toby
“Frame Toby” is the Office episode originally airing on November 20, 2008. This was an unusually weak episode, with few laugh-out-loud moments and central characters acting in very odd ways.
My biggest complaint was the way Michael acted throughout the episode. We all understand that he hates Toby, …

Dr. Phil
I don’t usually watch Dr. Phil because it comes on during the evening (at 7pm) when I’m usually out hanging with my friends at school or watching one of my favorite shows. However, whenever I do get the chance to watch it I find it interesting to see the …
