I do mean underway in one of the …

I’m not sure exactly why, but The Twilight Zone: The Gift has never been a favorite episode, even though the ending is pretty much up my alley when it comes to science fiction. I think in part it’s the cultural thing because the story takes place entirely …

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 …

You know, I used to love the show Ghost Hunters. Now I watch it but I honestly am not as big of a fan as I used to be. I think this is because the episodes aren’t as exciting as they used to be.
Last night’s episode, Glimmer Men, had …

One of the biggest reasons I like the different Law & Order programs over other detective shows is I was always impressed that they would focus on solving the crimes and didn’t write in any romantic story lines between the detectives.
Unfortunately, last night, Law & Order SVU crossed that …

I always thought The PJs was a really funny show. It’s a funny animated show about people living in the projects. Eddie Murphy does voice over acting for this show. I think the show is very funny, but some people think it is raceist. I don’t think it really is …

“Frame Toby” is the Office episode originally airing on November 20, 2008. This was an unusually weak episode, with few laugh-out-loud moments and central characters acting in very odd ways.
My biggest complaint was the way Michael acted throughout the episode. We all understand that he hates Toby, …

Netflix is the best thing that could’ve happen to TV shows… and to us! Its plan of just giving us all the episodes at once is genius and with these project I think they’ve gotten even more popularity. This time, the creator of Weeds was the one chosen to bring …

“The Flavin’ And The Mavin’” was a decent episode of the CBS sit-com Two And A Half Men, although the one-liners were not as clever as they usually are, and the ending of the episode was not going to be a surprise to anyone. I will give you …

Most were about everyday people caught in supernatural circumstances. Most episodes culminated in a twist ending. Many …

As I have seen most of the episodes of the first season of show Seven days I knew, more or less, what to expect in seconds season. Actually I was expecting some little improvements because it usually happens that way. Then again, the first episode should also be a …

The Year Without a Santa Claus first aired in 1974, and it’s been a holiday staple ever since. I’ve watched it every year, and oftentimes more than once. It’s one of the best animated Christmas vehicles out there, in my opinion. In fact, I just watched …

Season four of Stargate SG-1 continues with an intriguing episode called The Curse. It guest stars a beautiful British actress named Anna-Louise Plowman. For some reason, a good majority of the guest stars, especially the Goa’uld, are British. They say it’s never been intentional, but it …
