Alias Smith and Jones Season 1 DVD set
The Alias Smith and Jones Season 1 DVD set is a book-like presentation with lovely photography and artwork. The ‘book’ slides into the cover box, giving it that book-like feel.

CSI Season 8, Episode 4
This has to be one of my top or favorite episodes of CSI ever because it really highlights the character of Greg. When I saw it, I also thought it felt like one of the older episodes of the show from the days before they started focusing on different …
The Andy Griffith Show: Cousin Virgil TV Show
The Andy Griffith Show: Cousin Virgil from season two just isn’t a show I’m that fond of. In fact, it’s one of a few episodes from the entire series that I will actually turn off. It just doesn’t work for me, and I simply don’t enjoy much …

Highway Patrol: Lie Detector TV Show
Lie Detector is an intriguing early look at the technology of the lie detector which occurred in this 1956 episode of Highway Patrol.
Actually, the first thing I noticed in Lie Detector is that star Broderick Crawford wasn’t seen in the first several minutes. I don’t believe that’s been …
Direct T.V
Direct Television is a great thing. We switch to direct a long time ago, and now we have it in four rooms of the house. It is a lot cheaper than many of the others, and you still get a lot of the channels, which you can choose. They …
The Real Ghostbusters: Season 1, Episode 11: Citizen Ghost
After an episode that made direct reference to the “Ghostbusters” movie, it is only natural that they make an episode to show what happened between the battle with Gozer and the present. The episode is shown in flashback as a reporter interviews Peter as part of a story …
Stargate Atlantis: Tracker
The ninth show from the final season, Stargate Atlantis: Tracker begins with Ronon (Jason Momoa) and Rodney McKay (David Hewlett) looking for Jennifer Keller (Jewel Straite), who apparently has been kidnapped by a wraith runner. My comments and reactions are below.
–Rodney running for his life like a scared …
American Idol Show
I first loved watching this show because first, the judges are simply crazy, funny, and amazing! Second, there are really lots of talented contestants out there, plus we all get to watch crazy bonuses in which other “contestants” really think they are Mariah Carey or Celine Dion, maybe in …
Jenny Craig/ Kierstie Alley Commercials (tv)
So, she’s done it. Alley’s finally shed those excess pounds, and attributes her new body and overall look to Jenny Craig, huh? The new Jenny commercials, which use Alley to be their spokes person really drive me nuts. Not only do I personally, find them rather …

Gilligan’s Island - Music Hath Charm TV Show

White Collar Season 1 finale
Well, last night was the season 1 finale of the show White Collar. Either that, or it was the fall finale, I’m not really sure. Either way, it was pretty decent.
Basically, you have Neil being framed for robbing a jewelry store and, since there is no proof he didn’t …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Hobson’s Choice TV Show
Hobson’s Choice was an episode of Have Gun - Will Travel that aired towards the end of the fifth season, in April 1962. It was oddly entertaining, and I say that it was odd because it uses a very well known real life person and then proceeds to …

Have Gun - Will Travel: Love’s Young Dream TV Show
Have Gun - Will Travel: Love’s Young Dream featured Gunsmoke’s Ken Curtis as a colorful character named Monk. Of course, this was before Curtis made that jump on Gunsmoke. He’s a hoot in this bit, but I kept waiting for him to call Paladin, “Mr. Dillon” or …

This review is about a show that is near and dear to my heart. I don’t often get “hooked” on a tv show, much less feel the need to watch the episodes over and over. In fact, more often than not, I turn the channel to a …

Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable, manga TV series
Originally published as a manga in 1987, Hirohiko Araki’s Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure quickly rose to fame as one of the best-selling manga series of all time.

CSI Season 6 Episode 2 Room Service

Masquerade: Diamonds
The opening of this all-too-brief TV drama is a song called, appropriately, Masquerade and is sung by Crystal Gayle, who was one of the hottest country western music singers of the era. I love listening to it. I also love the beginning before the sung starts when …

Rising Stars tv series
I think of “Rising Stars” as the Jamaican version to the American reality television series “American Idol”. I never did like watching the television show a lot since it focuses on mainly the mainstream music, and I have never seen a contestant who I found was worth my time …

TMZ on TV (celebrity gossip TV show)
If you like celebrity gossip, you have probably seen the TMZ television show which comes on Fox TV. If you have even perused the website TMZ.com once, you’ll understand that this show focuses heavily on celeb dirt. I like the format, in which the viewers …
Stargate SG1: Inauguration Season 7, Episode 20
As usual, at the end of each season, Stargate SG1 writers fudge and take the easy way out for an episode, choosing to show us clips from previous episodes. While these clip shows are good for those who are just coming into the Stargate Universe, they are a …
