Private Eye: Barrio Nights, which aired originally on November 6, 1987 was a typical show about the barrio section of Los Angeles. I wish I could say there was something new or exciting about the episode, but I can’t. It’s a plot seen and used many times, …

Stargate SG-1: Crystal Skull is an excellent episode of this great science fiction series. It brings a bit of personal into the mission picture as Daniel Jackson’s maternal grandfather is an intricate part of the story.
The essence of Stargate SG-1: Crystal Skull is that Daniel gets out of …

In Touching Evil: Boston, David Creegan (Jeffrey Donovan) and the FBI team travel to Boston for their latest case. It’s an emotional trip of sorts because Boston is where Creegan grew up, so he has a lot of memories there, many of which he is conflicted about.
My favorite …

A Conversation with James Drury is forty-five minutes of interesting comments and remarks from this actor who is mostly remembered for playing the title role in the 90-minute NBC western, The Virginian. Now I want to say off the bat that traditionally, I’m not a fan of Drury …

I have been a customer of Comcast Cable off and on for roughly the last 7 years or so, dependent upon what deals they are currently offering. In the past, I have had no real complaints with the service other than the fact that their rates tended to …

Tales of the Gold Monkey: Trunk from the Past is an intriguing entry for this adventure series. It brings in Egyptian lore and archaeology, so that’s a plus for me. Though the overall tale is interesting, I’m really tiring fast of Sarah’s screeching. For a spy, …

The series Fireball XL5 is just awesome. What is odd about my affection for this puppet series is that I’m not really into puppeteering at all, neither did I watch this series when it was first on back in 1962-1963. At least, I don’t recall watching it, …

The second episode of The Virginian’s seventh season on the air from September 1968 was called Silver Image, and it was far better than I thought it was going to be. The show surrounded a widow of a rancher in Medicine Bow who was in the middle of …

The best part of The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: Bounty Hunters’ Convention
was an early scene where a man warned Brisco to make sure Comet didn’t have his way with his horse, Lily. It was a hoot of a scene.
Morgan Woodward guest starred as Sam Travis, one of …

It’s time for the spotlight to fall on Mercury and Venus in this DVD instalment of The Universe, one of the History Channel’s finest series’.
All the usual experts on hand to offer illuminating information and engage the audience with things we never knew, bringing their enthusiasm to the everyman …

Steven Culp and Kelly Lynch guest starred in The Cleaner: Rebecca. This was another solid episode with a lot of drama to it which I enjoyed watching. Both Culp and Lynch are excellent performers and they bring a lot to the table. Lynch is especially riveting …

This review is for Adam-12’s third season episode of Log 25: Indians. One of the major things that stand out in this episode for me is simply the characteristics of Webb-TV. Webb-TV is what is used to refer to Jack Webb TV shows, primarily Dragnet, Adam-12, and …

In Diagnosis Murder: Death in the Daytime, Amanda Bentley (Victoria Rowell) wins a walk-on appearance on the soap opera, The Young and the Restless. Naturally, everyone is happy for her and they all want to go with her. Someone does die, along with members of the Y …

Cover Her Face, Part 3, moves this P.D. James murder mystery along significantly. One of the things I like about this particular outing, though, is that the storyline is much easier to follow than those in later outings. I felt that way about The Black Tower, too. …

This was an interesting episode that wrapped up the Equinox subplot. It ties into Dr. Fate so, as one would expect, this is a pretty metaphysical episode, dealing with the lords of order and chaos as well as remaking the universe.
For only twenty minutes, this was …

Castle Films presented a cartoon version of Simple Simon. This now vintage cartoon from the golden age of TV begins very lively with the children’s song about Simple Simon. Then we learn everyone is going to the fair, and that’s where the story goes.
While I loved the …

I’m not sure I’ve enjoyed an awards show as much as I did The 67th Golden Globes - 2010 in January. I’m not sure why. I’m no fan of Ricky Gervais, the host, and his contribution did nothing to make me smile. Well, I did laugh …

One thing I’ve noticed in the final season of Monk is the cases are somewhat easy to solve but the episodes still manage to be entertaining from a comedy standpoint.
This was the case last night with Happy Birthday Mr. Monk.
The episode, of course, had Monk celebrating his (50th) birthday. …

National Geographic is famed for producing very interesting, scientifically accurate television specials. In this television special, entitled Sea Monsters: A Prehistoric Adventure, computer generated animation brings the Cretaceous Period ocean to life. Millions of years ago, the state of Kansas, and in fact, the entire Midwest, was …

The only real problem with the Dancing with the Stars results show for this 200th Performance week, the 7th week of the current season, is that it had to deal with election results break ins. I strongly suspect that is why the normal hour allotment was changed to …

Ransom aired towards the end of Sea Hunt’s second season. It’s all about the need to recover some computer memory tapes that are being held for ransom. Here are some thoughts on this half hour episode of the adventure series which starred Lloyd Bridges.
–Okay, firing into the …

I always get a kick out of The Andy Griffith Show: The Sermon for Today because it shows just how crazy a simple thing can become. It’s another Sunday in the small town of Mayberry, North Carolina, and the townsfolk are taking in a sermon by a guest …

Star Trek: The Next Generation - The Survivors is one of my favorite episodes of the entire series. The reason it is one of my favorite episodes is because this episode really has a great deal going for it: an well-crafted and intriguing mystery, some exciting ship to ship …

My wife and I used to watch the show Scrubs when it first came on the air but got away from it for a while. However, we’ve been watching re-runs lately and I find myself wondering why we stopped watching this series.
One of the episodes I watched the other day …

William Katt became the murder victim in Diagnosis Murder: Flashdance with Death from season one. He’s co-owner of a dance studio, and he wants to sell; his partner doesn’t. It’s a classic reason for murder.
This episode has some good talent for its day. In addition to …

Season after season, NCIS attracts more audience because even the not-so-intellectual viewers like me, admire the right amount of science, action, comedy and drama every character contribute. Together, they blend well as one unit solving crimes with passion and support each other like family.
There’s Ducky and Abby, scientists with …

After hearing numerous rave reviews, I finally decided to give in and give HBO’s True Blood a fair shot. Not only were many of my friends rabid fans, but this is a critically acclaimed show that has won awards after all, that has to mean something right? Wrong! I …

Can a number bring thrill and suspense to television viewers? I’d like to think so and 24 has done a very good job at that.
24 is an action-drama series that has spanned seven seasons already. It stars Keifer Sutherland as the famous (or infamous) Jack Bauer as a …

I’m someone who has always been fascinated with supernatural movies and series, so as soon as I heard about the Showtime original series Penny Dreadful, I could tell that it would be something I might be interested in watching. The clips that I’d seen of it only made me even …

I honestly thought I’d reviewed this already because I remember seeing the rerun not long ago, but maybe I was interrupted as I don’t see it, so here we go. The show in question is called Justice in Hell, which was from the fifth season of Have Gun …

Have Gun - Will Travel: Unforgiving Minute, episode 20 of season six of the Richard Boone western series, does not have my beloved introduction that takes place in San Francisco. I’m not sure how many shows in this year were without them, but from what I’ve seen in …

Captain Planet was a television carton series that i used to watch in my early teens. I really enjoyed it and I think a lot of people in my generation did as well.

In this episode we get to see Chuck as a normal person who is not really good at his new SPY job. Although he tries really hard he manages to mess up things. I guess that’s the way most of us would behave if we were in his place. …

Goodness, it’s another show about ventriloquists and their dummies. I just do not like these episodes of any show, and it’s a letdown to see one on a good show like The Twilight Zone. Never the less, that’s what viewers got in April 1964 with the episode …

I wasn’t really looking forward to seeing the Slitheen again as their first appearance didn’t really blow me away. Surprisingly enough, this episode was much improved. We learn that one of the Slitheen from “Aliens of London” and “World War Three” managed to teleport to safety at …

I find this show irritating because it elevates educated nerds to a level of admiration that they do not deserve. A comedy about nerds is neither original nor enticing regardless of the deceptive title. Nerds are called thusly because they do not fit into the society of …

The standout story in Adam-12: Day Watch features George Murdock as the owner of a service station whose been robbed. He’s the prejudiced type with a quick temper. It’s actually an interesting case study of how anger makes a situation worse. It’s Murdock’s own stupidity that …

The show family matters was a good show and I use to love watching it all the time when it was on the air. I love how the characters on the show were just average people; working average jobs but quite often dealt with major problems and this show …
