When I first watched The Virginian: The Devil’s Children, I kept thinking this wicked stepchild, aka: the villainous of the piece, looked darn familiar, but I couldn’t figure it out. Then I looked up the credits and realized it was Joan Freeman, guest starring as a bratty girl …

This morning, my wife showed me a clip of the show South Park on her Facebook page. The clip was from an episode relating to Facebook; You Have 0 Friends. And, I thought it was pretty funny.

Voyagers!: Pursuit was another good episode and one I enjoyed a lot, in part because it dabbled just lightly into the space program, which is a topic I’m very interested in. Do a good space show, and the odds are I’ll enjoy it.
Apparently, it’s young Jeffrey Jones’ birthday …

American Idol; an American TV past-time for 10 seasons. And although it was great in the beginning, I can’t help but think its become a little redundant over the years.

There’s an odd thing that I noticed in That Girl: That Senorita. It’s the fifth season and while things began to ease up in the fourth season, in this one things are definitely looser in tone and style. It’s a sign of the times in which That …

Some later Simpsons episodes aren’t as good as the earlier ones. But the episode “Lard of the Dance” is actually quite interesting.

For years now, it seems like it is government-mandated to watch all of the Marvel films, because as much as I try, I can’t seem to keep myself out of the theater! The “Daredevil” series on Netflix, although successful, seems to not be as etched into the mainstream as …

Normally I like Vincent Price. …

It isn’t often that a fictional television show actually moves me to the point I’m almost in tears. But, last night’s episode of Bones, “The Finger in the Nest,” was one that made me feel like I had a knife stabbed into my heart.
