The job in this case was to travel to San Ysidro …

It took seven years for Producer Robert C. Cooper to admit Michael Shanks could act (duh), and the admission came with Stargate SG-1: Lifeboat, a season seven entry that was a showcase for Shanks’ enormous acting talent.
In this show, Daniel becomes a lifeboat of sorts to several other consciousness’, …

–This episode is just strewn with words of whimsy and love’s poems. It …

“Hunter’s Moon” is the 22nd episode of season one of Justice League Unlimited. I was disappointed that this episode did not pick up where the last episode ended, since episode 21 ended with a cliffhanger. Instead, we are treated to a mission with Hawkgirl and two lesser …

Laramie: Day of Vengeance, a first year episode of this awesome western series, had some nice elements to it. The show stars John Smith and Robert Fuller as cowboys, Slim Sherman and Jess Harper, respectively.
One of the scenes I loved was when Slim arrived back at the ranch …

M*A*S*H: The Grim Reaper has Captain Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda), chief surgeon at the 4077th unit, so incensed at Colonel Victor Bloodworth, played by Charles Aidman, that he actually gets into a fight with him at the bar. I’m just not into the shows where Hawkeye gets violent. …

Stargate SG-1: Fragile Balance is a very nice episode of the seventh season. In this episode, a teenager shows up at the SGC, claiming to be Jack.
Young Jack was played astonishingly well by Michael Welch, who ended up on Joan of Acadia. This actor had Richard Dean …

Confrontation after confrontation after confrontation. That is what the final episodes here seem to be all about and that is a very good thing. It makes up for some of the lackluster nonsense that exists in the middle of Season 2. Continuing where the last one left off, we …

I wish I liked Burn Notice more as a series. It has a lot to offer, but most of the time, it fails to keep me hooked. I begin multi-tasking, even when I don’t mean to. While there have been a few I really like, most of …

Fireball XL5: Robert to the Rescue gives us something new yet again, and that’s really a neat thing about this puppet series for kids that aired back in 1962-1963. The powers that be kept doing different things, featuring characters in varying situations and whatnot. It’s variety that often …

Nevada vs. Rodgers was the latest hour of the new decent drama and disappointing comedy show, The Defenders. The good part for me is that they more or less left the comedy behind this week, and that was delightful. I’ve said from the beginning that this version …

Like I mentioned in another review, I was home with the kids yesterday and, while rocking my youngest daughter to sleep, I found myself watching some episodes of the Andy Griffith Show.
One of these episodes, entitled “Mayberry on Record,” wasn’t too bad.
This one had a man coming to Mayberry …

This was one of the first episodes I really liked of this show. It was about the year 200,000 and the way the news were transmitted. They are all on a satellite and they receive news trough some kind a machine, they have some kind a chip installed …

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea’s 16th show for its fourth and last year on television was called The Lobster Man and aired in January 1968. Starring Richard Basehart as Admiral Harriman Nelson and David Hedison, my favorite of the series, as Captain Lee Crane, this show …

In Stargate SG-1: Cure, we get more history of the Tok’ra. In fact, we meet their queen, who has been used as a laboratory rat of sorts for ages by the Pangorans, who claim ignorance once the discovery was made.
It becomes a bit of an ethical debate. The …

The intro has Batman and Black Canary teaming up to fight Solomon Grundy. Seeing as it’s Solomon Grundy, of course it’s great.
Many cite this episode as the low point of the series, and yeah, they’re right. Batman has an expansive rogues gallery of great characters, heck DC …

In this episode, Heidi tells the designers their next challenge is to create a look for a high powered woman and to meet Tim in the work room for more details.
When the designers head back to the work room …

While better than the Monk episode that preceded it, Friday night’s Psych episode “Any Given Friday Night at 10 PM” was another weak attempt to put together a good episode with a football theme in honor of this weekend’s Super Bowl.
I’m not sure which is more dumb; having players …

After a light-hearted, comedic episode, the show dives right into nightmare fuel territory with this episode. I’m surprised this doesn’t get more regard as it was fantastic. It probably ranks as one of the creepiest episodes of the series so far. Honestly, it puts “Blink” to …

Stalemate is another good episode of the 1970 drama, The Young Rebels, which starred a magnificent young cast which included Rick Ely, Louis Gossett Jr., and Phillippe Forquet. Hilary Thompson is also on board, playing Ely’s girlfriend on the show.

Kent - He was just awesome. He’s been my favorite throughout the series. He’s the …

Stargate SG-1: The Sentinel has SG-1 split as they try and fix a problem that was caused by another team’s visit.
Throughout the episode, Jack is in the ‘city’, appearing in scenes with Henry Gibson, famous from the Laugh-In television series. Gibson does nothing for me here, not that …

Jason Priestley guest stars in Jeremiah: And the Ground, Sown with Salt, a show that stars Luke Perry. These two actors were quite the rage back in the days of Beverly Hills 90210, a series I never cared for. I’ve been surprised by Perry in this science …

I finally got to see an episode of Spongebob Squarepants I haven�t seen before; Bubble Buddy. And, I have to admit, it was pretty funny.
This episode features SpongeBob creating an imaginary friend out of his bubbles simply because he has nobody to play with. He then goes around town …

I’m not really crazy about The Twilight Zone: A Passage for Trumpet, although I do like the punch that it gets at the end. This half-hour episode revolves around a depressed trumpet player, Joey Crown, who is portrayed by Jack Klugman. It’s a solid performance. I …

Gareth Malone returned with a new project in The Choir: Boys Don’t Sing. This was a follow up to the first The Choir project when he formed a choir out of a high school where kids didn’t sing much and did enough to get them to China to …

A kidnapping case. It showed how the team handles kidnappings and ransom demands. Since the kidnapped girl had a twin, there was also an interesting little twist about twin interaction and feeling things the other is feeling. Each episode I learn something interesting about Dr. Reid. This episode I …

Directed by Charles Haid, which might explain Michael Warren being in this episode since both appeared on Hill Steet Blues, Criminal Minds: Devil’s Night had its moments that served to entertain to an extent. The story concerned what is has been an annual event in Detroit in recent …

Andy Griffith had another successful series on his hand with his Matlock series where he played Georgia lawyer, Ben Matlock. He was country and down home, but he loved a good paycheck, too. This episode is entitled The Suspect and guest starred Brynn Thayer. Brynn is …

The Doctor can travel through time and often ends up righting wrongs and setting events right when historic events change from their intended …

For me, Chase: Paranoia was pretty intense, though that wasn’t necessarily a positive. In some ways, this episode felt like a rerun, not of this new series, of course, but of other shows and movies I’ve seen. That doesn’t mean it was not an enjoyable watch; it …

When I started to watch Alias when it came out I was pleasantly surprised as it was written very well and stories lines that were gripping and catchy. Especially because the main character is torn between 2 things trying to keep her spy live from interfering with her personal …

“Dead Man Talking” was definitely one of my favorite NCIS episodes of Season one. It had humor, lots of emotion and a difficult case since one of their own had been murdered.
In the previous episode, “UnSEALed”, we saw one of the agents (not on Gibbs’ team) try to …
