T-2 TV
I am using t-2 for my tv for last 3 motnhs. This is Slovenian TV provider, to be clear. So the signal comes from the ADSL line or the optical cable, if you have on. And i do. There is a lot of programs with this TV. The number …
Trinity Blood episode 11
A swift kiss, from lady death herself. This is “From the Empire” with love, Trinity blood episode eleven. The first thing you need to know, this is basically a James Bond episode focused more on teamwork, than cool gadgets or suave moves. Although they had those too, don’t get …
Spongebob Squarepants Season One: Bubblestand
Spongebob and Patrick decide to hold a bubble stand one day selling bubbles. Squidward comes by and sees what they are doing and thinks that they are stupid for doing so. He doesn’t understand why anyone would want to spend twenty five cents on blowing a bubble. But what …
M*A*S*H: O.R.
M*A*S*H: O.R. is aptly named because the show is thirty minutes of operating room scenes. It’s a long stretch of emergency surgery that is featured in this half hour episode from the third season of this show about the Korean War. Oddly, this series outlasted the true …
Jeepers Creepers 2
When the movie Jeepers Creepers came out a few years ago, I thought it was one of the better horror movies I’ve seen. In fact, I haven’t seen the movie in quite some time but can still remember pretty much the entire thing; a sign of a good movie.
I …
The Virginian: The Orchard TV Show
The Orchard aired in October 1968 and was part of The Virginian’s seventh season on television. The main reason I wanted to be sure to catch this show was that a favorite of mine, Ben Murphy, was one of the main stars. Murphy’s character was ranch hand …
Stargate SG-1: Metamorphosis
Jacqueline Samuda returns as Nirrti in Stargate SG-1: Metamorphosis, which is based on a story idea that she submitted to the show. It seems Nirrti is experimenting with the DNA of the inhabitants of a planet. Her goal is to make the perfect, or advanced, host body, …
Adam-12: Log 16: A Child in Danger
What I like about Adam-12: Log 16: A Child in Danger is the cute little banter that occurs throughout the episode about Jim Reed’s baby boy. Little Jimmy has a fever, and his godfather, Pete Malloy, is overly worried. He keeps trying to get Reed to get …
TV Show: Baggage
Synopsis: A contestant tries to decide which of three men or women he/she wants to date by eliminating two based on some sort of sordid detail they reveal about their lives. The show is on the Game Show Network and is hosted by Jerry Springer.
What I liked about this …
The King of Queens
To be honest, I never watched “The King of Queens” before they started showing syndicated episodes of it in the afternoons on one of local television stations. Since that time, however, my day is not complete unless I see this show. Everybody in the cast is talented …
Spongebob: To love a Patty
Some episodes of Sponge Bob Squarepants are OK. Others are just downright gross.
The episode “To Love a Patty” falls into the latter category.
First, this is one of the stupidest episodes out there; and that’s of any show, not just this one. Spongebob makes a crabby patty that is so …
Family Guy 100th Episode
I�m not a huge fan of Family Guy. The jokes in it can be funny but they are a bit too crude for my taste. However, when the 100th episode was on the other day, I did decide to give it a chance. And, again, I was disappointed.
The idea …
Futurama TV Episode: A Flight to Remember
I have seen the Futurama episode A Flight to Remember before. But, it had been while ago and I didn’t remember much about it. So, when I had an opportunity to watch it with my daughter yesterday evening, I did look forward to it.
This one isn’t too bad of …
Models of the Runway: Frenemies
So much for a modeling competition without major drama. This week’s episode starts out where last week’s ended; two models at each others throats because one overreacted when she lost her designer and another one over reacted when the first one got mad at her for not keeping her …
Models of the Runway: Chic Clique
As I predicted with last week’s Models of the Runway episode, the show is starting to get a bit on the predictable side. Once a designer is eliminated, it is pretty much a given his model will be too since the designers always seem to stick with their models; …
The Virginian: The Executioners
When The Virginian aired originally, I just wasn’t a fan. It was a ninety minute show, in color, and starred Lee J Cobb, Doug McClure, Gary Clarke, James Drury, and Roberta Shore. Honestly, the shore bored me. I tried watching it, but I wasn’t attracted to …
YOUNG SHELDON, series
As a fan of THE BIG BANG THEORY, I couldn’t help but watch its spin-off YOUNG SHELDON.
Honestly, when I found out that the leading roles would be given to children, I had my doubts, but would the series be interesting? After all, children are much harder to play …
Legend: The Gospel According to Legend
The Gospel According to Legend is the seventh episode of this Richard Dean Anderson futuristic western. I like this one quite a bit. A man Ernest Pratt (Anderson) knew before as a low life called Weasel Willy comes to town as Mordechai and claiming to be reformed …
The Secret Life of the American Teenager: Episode “Moving in and Out”
The ABC Family film that is shown on Monday nights called, “The Secret Life of the American Teenager” had some promise before it aired, but has slowly become a show that is giving teenagers the wrong idea about teen pregnancy and sex before marraige. The episode “Moving in and …
Highway Patrol: Chain Store TV Show
The 12th outing for Highway Patrol in its third year of televising was called Chain Store and was a pretty decent episode. The show starred Broderick Crawford as Chief Dan Mathews, the head of the California Highway Patrol. Also starring was William Boyett in his recurring role …
The Simpsons: Jazzy and the Pussy Cats
Well, who knew Bart’s trouble making tendencies could be turned into something good? The Simpsons episode “Jazzy and the Pussycats” shows Lisa isn’t the only one in the family with the ability to be a talented musician.
This is actually a funny episode. Bart makes trouble at church and, embarassed …
The-N
The-N is a very popular channel for young adults. Nickelodeon is actually what made the-n but it’s more grown up. The-N has changed a lot since it first came out. first of all it used to only be at night, from six pm to six am, Noggin used to …
Being Human (US series)
As of recently, one of my favourite things to watch on TV has become the American version to the hit UK series, “Being Human.”
Like its UK counterpart, the series is a drama about three less than normal rommates living together in a house, where they strive to make their …
The Apprentice: Pedicab Confessions TV Show
At the beginning The Apprentice: Pedicab Confessions, Stephanie met with the Rockport CEO. She was the winning project manager from the last task. The thing that struck me is that Rockport is really backing this reality show this season. They were the focus of one task …
Beast Wars - Cutting Edge
Beast Wars - Cutting Edge is an episode that has some decent action, but other than that, does not really appeal to me. For one, I do not find Cheetor developing a crush on Blackarachnia or the tension that emerges between Silverbolt and Cheetor as a result to be …
The Simpsons: No Loan Again, Naturally
One of our local stations has been showing Simpsons re-runs of episodes that are more recent and, as a result, I haven’t seen before. Last night, they showed one called No Loan Again, Naturally, which I thought was pretty good.
The episode starts out with Homer throwing a big bash …
That Girl: These Boots Weren’t Made for Walking
The very funny and versatile Paul Lynde guest stars in this first season episode of the comedy That Girl called These Boots Weren’t Made for Walking. Essentially, this is a topic that is very current to our modern work — working for ourselves. Ann Marie (Marlo …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Silent Towns TV Show
John Glover guest starred as Walter Grip. Man left on Mars, which was colonized but then evacuated because of some Earth crisis. Unfortunately, Grip didn’t get the word and is shocked to find himself alone; that is, until he starts phoning numbers randomly and finds Genevieve (Monica …
General Hospital: Nightshift 2008
In July 2008, Soap net debuted the second season of “General Hospital: Night Shift”. Essentially, it’s a summer show that takes regulars from the daytime soap opera and showcases them as they work the night shift at General Hospital. The show airs every Tuesday evening during the …
The Universe: Parallel Universes
The History Channel’s highly intriguing and always entertaining science documentary series turns in another sensational offering with this in depth, but incredibly palatable look at parallel universes.
It’s not just the thing of science fiction apparently, in fact the raw science is all there and not only might there be …
Tales of the Gold Monkey: Honor Thy Brother
I must admit that Tales of the Gold Monkey: Honor Thy Brother isn’t one of my favorite episodes of the series. It begins with Jake Cutter (Stephen Collins) having a lot of close calls. He survives them all, but realizes that it’s actually intentional. There’s …
America Celebrates July 4th at Ford’s Theater TV Show
For the 2010 Independence Day holiday, a special called America Celebrates July 4th at Ford’s Theater was presented. I liked this hour long show, but I wish it had featured some holiday music in it. Instead, we had a lot of pop music and some other songs, …
How I Met Your Mother: Shelter Island
“Shelter Island” is the fifth episode of season five of the CBS sit-com, How I Met Your Mother. This was a pivotal epsiode, because it concluded the romance between Ted and Stella and set up an interesting situation with Robin and Ted for the rest of the series.
What …
Stargate Atlantis: Remnants
Stargate Atlantis: Remnants continues the exploits of the Atlantis team in the Pegasus Galaxy. In this 15th show of the farewell season, the opening scenes have my head spinning. There’s just way too much going on, all presented in very short segments. More time needed to …
Home Improvement: Adios
Since there wasn’t anything really worth watching on TV yesterday afternoon, I ended up watching Home Improvement re-runs; including the one where Randy leaves the show to go to Costa Rica.
This was the first time I have seen this episode (though I have heard about it) and I have …
Chasing Mummies: Bats TV Show
There was something amazing about watching Chasing Mummies in this latest Bats episode. It was relatively calm and peaceful. With two archaeological fellows, Lindsay and Zoe, now out of the picture, what viewers were treated to was a really intriguing look at Egypt and the pyramids.
Early on, …
MacGyver: On a Wing and a Prayer
Finally, we get a season four episode with Pete Thornton and the Phoenix Foundation. In MacGyver: On a Wing and a Prayer, Pete and a nun have been kidnapped in Barraca from some rebels. With the government bogged down in politics, MacGyver does something he never thought …
Saigon Suicide Squad : Upright Citizens Brigade
The Saigon Suicide Squad episode is a bit different from most other Upright Citizens Brigade episodes. It is a pretty contained piece of work, with almost all of the action happening only on a single stage (instead of going around from location to location like most UCB episodes). …
Ghost Hunters: Pensacola Lighthouse
My wife and I came to two realizations last night while watching Ghost Hunters. First, there are a lot of lighthouses in Florida. Second, almost every single one of them apparently is rumored to be haunted.
Last night’s episode, at Pensacola Lighthouse wasn’t as good as others done in that …
High School Musical 3 Senior Year
I just watched the finale of High School Musical 3 with my sister a few days ago. She was begging me endlessly and I hate to see her disappointed so I complied. We watched the final offering of HSM during the first day of the grand showing in the …
M*A*S*H: An Eye for a Tooth
I have to admit I really get a kick out of M*A*S*H: An Eye for a Tooth from season seven. It’s a show that focuses on humor via some practical jokes. Unlike some other episodes which have had prankster storylines that were over-the-job and almost boring, this …
That Girl: Bad Day at Marvin Gardens
In the prior episode of That Girl, Ann and Don had planned to visit the Maries in Brewster, but Don had to work. In this episode entitled Bad Day at Marvin Gardens, the Maries come to the city to spend the weekend with the couple, starting with a …
Home Improvement: This Joke’s For You
As I usually do at lunch time, I was watching an episode of the show Home Improvement. Today’s episode was entitled “This Joke’s for You” and was somewhat funny but yet had kind of a mushy plot to it.
This is the episode where Tim installs his new intercom system, …
Home Improvement: Satellite on a Hot Tim’s Roof
I came home for lunch today and the Home Improvement episode “Satellite on a Hot Tim’s Roof” was on. And, it is great.
There are two storylines going on in this episode and the writers managed to pull off both without taking away from either of them.
First, Tim gets a new …
CSI Season 5 Episode 18 Spark of Life
It was a very nice episode, although I feel it could have been better. There were some interesting twists of events, but for the most part of it I was a bit bored. It is not that the events of the episode did not matter, it was because there …
Stargate SG-1: Bane
Stargate SG-1: Bane gives us a lot of big,huge, honkin’ bugs, as Jack O’Neill says. Opening scene is a hoot; I love it. Essentially, Teal’c gets stung and then has a really nasty reaction.
One of the pleasures of this episode is Tom McBeath as Harry Maybourne. …
In Plain Sight: Don’t Cry for Me Albuquerque
It comes on too late at night for me to watch it on a regular basis but the show In Plain Sight is slowly growing on me. It’s just too bad they had to take the tired old plot line where the main character gets shot; in the season finale …
Spongebob Squarepants Season Three - Squilliam Returns
One day on Squidward’s lunch break, he comes across his old rival, Squilliam, who he still despises to this day because he always made sure to tell Squidward how rich and famous he was. Well to make himself feel better, he tells Squilliam that he is the head of …
Adam-12: The Tip
For me, one of the things that stands out about Adam-12: The Tip is that Chuck Courtney has an uncredited part as bad guy, Russell Simms. I’m not sure why he didn’t make the end theme credits, but for some reason, Adam-12 had a habit of not crediting …
