The so-so sixth season of Curb Your Enthusiasm ended on a rather strange note. For a start, Larry’s long suffering but forever faithful spouse Cheryl had finally called quits on her husband and all his hang-ups. Stranger still, Larry quickly found love again with Loretta Black and her misplaced …

This is by far the best comedy series ever, in my opinion, and from the first episode I saw of it, I just could not get enough.
I was fortunate enough to catch most of the episodes, right up to the last episode of the penultimate season, and such is …

From 1968, Star Trek: Spectre of the Gun is a show I really do love. It’s a take on the events of the O.K. Corral with Wyatt Earp. Of course, it’s based more on the myth of what happened than the reality, but it’s still legend and …

When I first heard about the TV show nurse Jackie, I did not know what to think about it. It seems like a spin off of to show House, only this one with a female character. At first I didn’t want to watch it because it seemed a bit …

OK, two questions. First of all, I thought Law & Order SVU was supposed to be about sex crimes and, secondly, is this the month we feature each of Stabler’s kids?
The episode “Lunacy” was actually one of the worst episodes of this series I’ve seen. OK, you have a …

Voyagers!: Barriers of Sound is an intriguing connection of two historical events. It’s shows like this one that proved how creative Voyagers! could be. It begins with history going wrong with Dwight David Eisenhower almost didn’t get born, or survive. The reason? The telephone hadn’t …

Friends Episode: Phoebe and her Bike is awesome because of the fact that Phoebe is such a ’sore loser’ when Ross tries to teach her how to ride a bicycle. She falls down the bicycle and that scene was truly funny! Ross feels so bad that she falls …

Mr. Howell takes center stage here which is like a breath of fresh airs so to speak, since Gilligan gets to take a step back from the main character. I was pleased with Howell’s acting skills in this episode despite the fact he ran around most of the show …

Trigun Episode 25 begins with Vash recovering in a small town, distraught over the fact that he killed Legato Bluesummers, he doesn’t know what he’s supposed to do and keeps asking Rem what he should do. Meanwhile, Meryl and Milly help him recover while they work digging for …

M*A*S*H: Potter’s Retirement is a pretty decent episode from the sixth season of this great series. In the episode, Colonel Sherman Potter (Harry Morgan) learns that complaints have been made about his command of the 4077th. Now in years past, that was commonplace for Potter’s predecessor, Colonel …

Trauma: Life in the ER is a fast-paced show not intended for the weak of heart and stomach. With real surgery footage and violent, graphic images, the show carries a warning that younger viewers should not watch. Each episode centers around a hospital somewhere in the US …

Have Gun - Will Travel: Something to Live For is episode 14 of the second season of this western. Richard Boone stars as the sometimes playboy, sometimes gunfighter, Paladin, who hires his services out for a fee.
In this particular episode, Paladin is headed out for a job when …

When I first saw the description of Detective Conan, a kid who solved cases, I wasn’t too keen on watching it. But then I thought that I might as well check it out. When I finally saw it, I realized that it was a High Schooler who turned into …

As a person whose a big fan of police dramas and classic love stories, I was skeptical about this show at first; though I decided that it wouldn’t hurt to give it a shot since Kristin Kreuk stars in it. Figured since she was a pretty good actress in …

For me, there isn’t anything terribly exciting about this episode of Adam-12 entitled Log 75: Have a Nice Weekend. The segment I key in on more than the others is one with Norma Connolly as Eva Foster. I met the late Ms. Connolly a few times, and …

Season one of MacGyver continues with an episode called The Heist. Interestingly, like the pilot, it was directed by the infamous Alan Smithee. In Hollywood, Smithee is a fictional name applied to a project when the actual director doesn’t want his name attached to the project in …

Katherine Langford, the woman who recruited Daniel Jackson for the Stargate program, is re-introduced in this episode. No, she is not played by the same woman but an equally talented one.
Daniel is given lots of boxes regarding the Stargate Program back in 1945. While most people would …

This was an interesting season. First, you have two major characters getting replaced (Col. Potter replaces Henry Blake, who was killed in Season 3 and B. J. Hunnicut replaces Trapper John, who was shipped home).
In addition, you have one of the worst episodes ever. It consisted of Hawkeye (who …

There is rarely an episode of Bones that I don’t like. And this one is no exception. But this one is different from the rest of the episodes this season. Usually there is a mixture of serious things with a lot of humour. This time it was very serious and …

Tonight was the first time I saw the House episode “Informed Consent” and, while I have no idea in which season this one took place in, it reminded me of how great this show used to be before they started tampering with the cast and throwing in little side …

This episode picks up where the last left off, with John Smith being forced to comply to an order that makes absolutely no sense to him made by beings that he has no seeming familiarity with. Kudos to Martha for turning the tables the way she did. …

The mid-season finale of “The Walking Dead” had a lot going on. The episode leaves you exactly where I hate it, on a cliff-hanger in every aspect imaginable wondering what happens next. What happens to Daryl? (Who really cares about Merle right?) Are the people safe …

Much of the focus in John Doe: Family Man is on Detective Frank Hayes (John Marshall Jones) who is dealing with an impending divorce and custody issues. It’s that same old thing about a cop’s job interfering with family life. While I have sympathy, I also think …

Presented by two young and trendy presenters (a local club deejay and a beautiful singer), who deliver the content in a fresh, vibey and trendy fashion, Club808 is certainly a hit with me and one Friday night show I have come to look forward too. What I like most …

So begins the finale of the second season. Like pretty much every two parter in the show so far, this one is pretty much all build up. It’s well done build up, but build up none the less.
The Doctor and Rose return home so that Rose can …

While not technically listed as a two-parter, that is in essence what John Doe: The Mourner is. In this first hour of a continuing drama, a serial killer dubbed The Mourner is on the loose. One of the kickers is that he’s using the symbol that is …

Remington Steele: License to Steele was the first episode of what would become a successful drama for five years on the NBC Network. The show starred Stephanie Zimbalist as private detective, Laura Holt, and Pierce Brosnan as her fictional detective and agency head, Remington Steele.
Basically, Laura Holt was …

It’s time for the annual physicals at the 4077th unit, hence the third season show, M*A*S*H: Check-Up. There’s a bunch of small scale antics, ranging from Henry Blake examining Radar O’Reilly and Hawkeye Pierce examining Hot Lips Houlihan. The big story, though, comes when Trapper John McIntyre …

From November 1961, Have Gun - Will Travel: The Hanging of Aaron Gibbs was a very strong episode. It surprised me in many ways. The show guest stars black folk singer, Odetta. Now the only reason I use the descriptor ‘black’ in this review is because …

Where the last episode was a highly enjoyable piece of light-hearted fluff, this episode goes for an epic blockbuster level of story. The entire world is in danger and the threat is on par with Gozer himself. Heck, this one might actually outdo Gozer on some levels. …

Originally having aired in August 1990, The Ray Bradbury Theater: Usher II guest stars Patrick MacNee as a man named Stendahl. It’s a futuristic yarn where the extremely wealthy Stendahl exacts revenge against those who were responsible for the banning and burning of books; more specifically, his library …

My New Year’s resolution this year was to get healthier and workout more regularly and this is the one year I have actually stuck with my resolution, a lot of this is due to the On Demand Exercise TV that Comcast offers. I have always had On Demand but …

Murder Times Seven stars Richard Crenna as Frank Janek. This is the 4th of seven movies with the Janek police detective. In this outing, a fellow detective has been murdered and Janek is in charge of the investigation. It’s soon very clear that he and the …

For me, The Twilight Zone: Sounds and Silences is simply a grating and annoying experience, much like the main character the story surrounds. John McGiver does a nice job as Roswell G. Flemington, a man who loves noise and doesn’t care that he’s perceived as being obnoxious by …

The Andy Griffith Show: The Jinx, from January 1962 which was part of this comedy show’s second season on the air, was a solid half hour of entertainment, though to be honest, it’s not one I really like all that much. I’ve watched it numerous times. I …

OK, last night’s SVU episode, Spooked, was one of the most predictable episodes I’ve seen.
First, you have the rape/murder of two people in an alley that turns out to be drug related because the woman was smuggling drugs in her breast implants (ouch, but I guess that is a …

After what seemed to be a very long season of Project Runway, I’m happy to say the season finale was last night. And, it made the last few weeks of torture worth it.
Jeffrey was named the winner, which means the judges finally picked the right winner. His outfits throughout …

Project Runway: Race to the Finish had a challenge that involved L’oreal makeup, specifically eye shadow duos. The challenge was attached to a word like ‘bright’ or ‘velvet’ and it was to be a high fashion runway look.
As often happens so it shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone, …

Although this was a great episode, and I loved it- I doubt very much if I will ever watch it again. Unless I have to. In this episode the victim is an undercover cop and when the unsub gets him, he tortures him and the scene is really bloody and …

Lost Worlds is a tv series that appears on The History Channel. They take worlds that have been lost throughout the ages and using cool technology they recreate the world as it would have been seen back in the day. It is a great show. You get to learn …

For a while now, I have seen Bratz dolls on TV. At first I didn’t really pay attention to them, but now, I have noticed something about them. I have noticed that every Bratz doll is wearing something that no self-respecting person would wear. They …

In its second series, Big Train undergoes a few changes. Firstly, the cast is heavily revamped. Julia Davis and Amelia Bullmore are both gone, but are replaced by a trio of female performers to play against the original three male members. Thankfully this time, the girls get to play …

If you’re looking for a show to watch Tuesday nights, Law & Order Special Victims Unit is it. It has to be the best of the Law & Order franchise and I make sure never to miss an episode.
In addition to being a great crime drama, the storylines in …

In March 1963, the Darlings didn’t just come, they arrived, and they did it in their own unique style. The show was The Andy Griffith Show: The Darlings Are Coming, and it was the first of several shows that would feature this folk singing family from the hills.
Denver …

The pilot for the new series, My Generation, takes a look at the class of 2000, beginning with a video yearbook opening. This was somewhat attention getting as it still has the usual characters for high school and colleges, like the beauty queen and the jock.
However, the show …
