Rising Damp
Rising Damp is an ancient British comedy classic, which was aired on television originally between 1974 to 1978. It stars the late Leonard Rossiter as the mean, grumpy landlord, Rigsby, and Rigsby is an absolutely classic comedy character. I used to enjoy watching this as a kid …
Dexter tv programme
Dexter is certainly not the sort of show I would think of ordinarily watching. As someone who isn’t keen on blood or gore at the best of times the last thing I would think of watching is something as macabre as this.
So what is it all about? Well, the …
Monk
One afternoon, a couple of months ago, I was bored and was switching channels on my television. I came across a MONK marathon on USA channel. So I watched one episode and then the next, and then the next. Before I knew it I was hooked on it. …
Columbo: The Most Crucial Game TV Show
Columbo: The Most Crucial Game is the second appearance of Robert Culp on the series. Culp played these villains with mastery. This time he’s Paul Hanlon, the right hand man for a football team, and he sets up a great alibi. Of course, there’s always one …
America’s Next Top Model: Diane von Furstenberg TV Show
America’s Next Top Model: Diane von Furstenberg was the second hour long episode of Cycle 15. As the title would indicate, the famous designer was part of the program, being part of the first challenge and then participating in the judges panel for the elimination at the very …

Grey’s Anatomy Season 6 Episode 16
After watching a bunch of not so great episodes of Grey’s it was nice to see one that had a good vibe to it. Funny, light hearted and warm and this was that episode, well up until the end anyway where it got sad.
What was cool about this …
Doctor Who 2009 Special 2: The Waters of Mars
I had high hopes for this special. I really did. It has all the makings of a fantastic episode. You, once again, have the Doctor arriving at a fixed point, where he is seemingly helpless to do anything, which adds a nice level of tension. …
Smallville: Instinct
“Instinct” is the fourth epsiode of season eight of Smallville, a TV series airing on the CW on Thursday nights. This was a pretty spicy epsiode featuring the debut of Maxima, a gorgeous alien with a plan to find a mate worthy of her power and beauty. …
M*A*S*H: The Moon Is Not Blue
The 4077th is tired of getting old and blah movies in M*A*S*H: The Moon Is Not Blue, so when Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda) and B.J. Hunnicutt (Mike Farrell) hear about a controversial new movie called The Moon Is Not Blue, they are eager to have it sent to them.
In …
40 Hottest Hotties of the 90s (VH1 TV show)
This VH1 segment was really interesting. I love it when VH1 does shows that reminisce over the 1990s or 1980s. They always pick out the most hilarious aspects of pop culture. This segment focused on celebrities who were the hottest things in the 1990s. Topping …
Seinfeld: The Contest
One of the Seinfeld episodes I got to watch recently (for about the third time) was the episode entitled “The Contest.” If you have never seen this episode, or any other Seinfeld episode for that matter, you need to watch it. You’ll understand why this show was as popular …
Private Eye: Light and Shadows TV show
Private Eye: Light and Shadows begins with a black female loan officer hiring Jack Cleary (Michael Woods) to protect her. She’s being followed and claims not to know why. The woman is Helen Burke, played strongly and capably by Lisa Wilkinson. What is funny to me …
MSNTV 2
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 …
As the World Turns TV Show
As the World Turns is one of my favorite television programs. It is a soap opera that comes on at 2pm on CBS. I started watching this show when I was in middle school, and still watch it now long after college.
It has several great story lines that always …
Wendie Malick
I think Wendie Malick is pretty sexy for being an older woman. Not only that but I think she is a great actress. She has so much class and style and that makes her more attractive. She is a really good looking woman and has a nice smile. I like …
TV Show: Late Show with David Letterman
Synopsis: Late night talk show starring comedian David Letterman as the host; mixing comedy with musical performances and interviews with special guests.
What I liked about this show: I used to watch this show religiously when I was younger but haven’t watched it in a long time. In fact, the …
Martha: The Martha Stewart Show: 9-16-10 TV Show
September 16th’s episode of Martha: The Martha Stewart Show, which starts off the Home block of daytime programming on the Hallmark Channel, began with a couple of cute dogs. I guess these critters belong to Martha and apparently they are now starring in their own webisodes over on …
Fireball XL5: The Doomed Planet
Fireball XL5: The Doomed Planet is the second episode of this puppet, or rather supermarionation series from Gerry Anderson, and I love it for a few reasons.
First, we see how Colonel Steve Zodiac and Doctor Venus are at home when they are off duty. They drive from the …
Simpsons - Donnie Fatso
What happened to the Simpsons who told an interesting story once a week? As the seasons go on, there have been fewer and fewer episodes where there has been any entertainment at all involved in the show. This episode is …
Desperate Housewives Season 5 Episode 17
I think Desperate Housewives Season 5 Episode 17 is an important development because this is the season whereby Lynette gets a job, and you will see why Gabby is acting like she’s not jealous but in actual fact she is so worried about her husband working with his own ex-girlfriend. …
Da Ali G Show
Da Ali G show is a very funny show. I love this show and I think anyone that watches it will ahve a reaction. Theyw ill either love or hate Ali G.
I find him really funny to be honest and I like the show’s format. I …
Gilligan’s Island - Meet the Meteor TV Show
What a change, the actors actually face a survival situation not from man but from space, something that we face everyday. And in m opinion the producer did an excellent job making this episode well thought out. There is one scene that is completely unrealistic, again the Professor uses …
Felix in Hollywood cartoon
Recently, I had a chance to watch some classic Felix the Cat cartoons. I used to watch these with great pleasure when growing up. Well, not these specific ones I’m reviewing. These are older ones that I’m seeing for the first time, but there was a …

Babylon 5 Season 1, Episode 1: The Gathering
I had never watched Babylon 5 back when it was on the air. After hearing a lot of good things recently, I decided to add it to my Netflix queue. It was added to instant watch and I was finally able to sit down and start watching …
The Office Season 3
The third season of The Office isn’t my favorite season of the show, but I think it’s pretty good and it has some truly funny scenes. I didn’t like it enough to buy it when it first came out on DVD, but I liked it enough to buy it …
Nova: Lizard Kings: on the trail of the monitor lizards
The episode of nova called Lizard Kings: on the Trail of the monitor lizards, is a very interesting documentary. The show follows the adventures of a lizard expert, and his team, as they trap, study, catch and release lizards in the Red Sands desert in Australia. Apparently this desert …
The Simpson’s: Sweets & Sour Marge
I was able to watch a late night episode of the Simpson’s last night and it was an interesting one; “Sweets & Sour Marge.”
This episode has Homer trying to break a world’s record and, after attempts to do so by himself fail, he convinces the town of Springfield to …
The Singing Bee (CMT version)
In 2007, NBC launched a musical competition show called The Singing Bee. The host was Joey Fatone, who was hot off his comeback success in Dancing with the Stars. I really enjoyed that show, much better than rival Fox’s Don’t Forget the Lyrics. Unfortunately for me, …
Mickey mouse club house
The Mickey Mouse clubhouse is the name of the programme telecasted in the Disney channel. Actually this programme is telecasted at the time of around 2:30 to 3:30 pm. This is the favourite programme for my kids. While having the dinner they watch this programme. …
Cowboy Beboop Episode 12 (Anime)
Cowboy Bebop Episode 12 begins with Faye Valentine taking all Spike’s, Jet’s, and Ed’s money and taking off. Jet decides to go look for Faye while Spike decides to go look for someone named Julia.
This was a great episode and it was fantastic. The story was …
Merlin Season 2, Episode 11
I am a huge fan of this TV series. Mind you, it is a British production, and I think that BBC airs it in Britain, although cable providers here in Canada do have access and rights to the program.
Merlin starts on a simple premise. If you love …
Chappelle show: lost episodes
Whos been waiting for Dave Chappelle’s Lost Episodes? Just about everyone thats who! The lost episodes came to Comedy Central with new hosts to the show, Charlie Murphy and Donnell Rawlings. Now even though Im a fan of Dave Chappelle’s work, I am kinda dissapointed with the Lost Episodes. …
Beast Wars - Deep Metal
Beast Wars - Deep Metal introduces a new Maximal to the series: Depth Charge. In some ways, he seems as if he is intended to take the place of Dinobot, who was killed in the last season because he is more aggressive and eager to fight, he is distant …
CSI Season 5 Episode 4
CSI Season 5 Episode 4
It wasn’t a bad episode, yet it wasn’t very good either. Very average for the show. And I think, it was trying to send some moral lesson, but it wasn’t clear enough to do that. Also, the method in both cases was similar- the writing …
What’s New Scooby Doo: The Vampire Strikes Back
As far as “What’s New Scooby Doo” episodes are concerned, the one entitled “The Vampire Strikes Back” was better than some of the first season episodes I’ve watched.
This one actually had a legitimate mystery in it at least.
The episode features the Hex Girls (which I can only assume means …
Stargate SG-1: The First Ones
Excellency returns to SG-1 in season four. In the midst of ogling and soap operaesque episodes, Stargate SG-1: The First Ones is a delight. It’s angst, action, drama, and it has heart. It’s about friendship and teammates. It’s a lost teammate, and SG-1’s absolute determination to …
That Girl: These Boots Weren’t Made for Walking
The very funny and versatile Paul Lynde guest stars in this first season episode of the comedy That Girl called These Boots Weren’t Made for Walking. Essentially, this is a topic that is very current to our modern work — working for ourselves. Ann Marie (Marlo …
Family Guy TV Episode: The Kiss Seen Around the World
Well, that was an OK episode of Family Guy last night, but not one I was overly impressed with either.
In The Kiss Seen Around the World, Meg develops a crush on the local TV anchorman and accepts an unpaid internship just to get close to him. However, while there, …
That Girl: That Girl’s Daddy
That Girl: That Girl’s Daddy from season 5 is an interesting story in a way. It’s one that also has a continuity error. At the beginning of the show, Lou Marie (Lew Parker) is trying to get inside Ann Marie’s (Marlo Thomas) apartment when a policeman stops …
How I Met Your Mother
Well, How I Met Your Mother is one of my most favorite show I’ve been watching since the starting of the episode. It is the best sitcoms on TV now. This comedy is about a guy name Ted is telling his two kids on how he met his mother. …
Desperate Housewives Episode: The Tornado
Desperate Housewives Episode: The Tornado is so scary and in fact, this is one of the best and most awesome episodes, which makes me shudder because out there, there might be real stuff like this happening and my heart is beating so fast and I almost cry. I really …
Married With Children
Every Monday through Friday night at 9pm and Saturday’s at 7pm on the CW I get the chance to watch Married with Children. It used to come on at 10:30 and 11 pm at night which meant that if I had a long day I was likely to fall …
Batman: The Brave and the Bold: Fall of the Blue Beetle!
The intro teams Batman up with the Blue Beetle, not Jaime but Ted Kord. They’re exploring some undefined hideout. The banter between the two was well done, discussing the drawbacks of various gadgets and how no one appreciates the brains behind it all.
The episode opens …
MacGyver: The Road Not Taken
I suppose season two just isn’t as fun for me as season one of MacGyver was. This is another show that just doesn’t quite tickle my fancy as some others do. It’s plenty watchable, with good moments, but it’s another old flame returning, and not just for …
Hustle Season 2
I am writing this review on great BBC series Hustle Season 2. The main reason for writing this review is that this is unmatchable TV series and most of the people don’t know about it. The theme of the show is great and it’s about 5 people who find …
Ghost Hunters: Two Brothers & Willard Library
We watched another Season 2 episode of Ghost Hunters last night and, once again, were very disappointed in it.
The episode, Two Brothers & Wllard Library, seemed like it would have potential but, once again, we were left with a few personal experiences and not much else.
The closest paranormal thing …

The latest animated offering from Seth MacFarlane and company finally arrives in the form of Family Guy spin off; The Cleveland Show.
