Hawaii Five-O: Not That Much Different focuses on student protestors who confront a foreign official. The man decides to address the protestors and when shots ring out, one of the protestors is killed. At first, the assumption is that the shot was meant for the foreign representative, …

Stargate: Infinity: The Natural is another lesson show. Actually, I think they all are, but it seems that the last half of the season is much more focused on that than the first half, or maybe it’s just standing out to me because it seems to be so …

The Apprentice is an interesting concept for a show. The show is a search for a new employee for Donald Trump. The contestants go through different competitions taht show their individual business sense and their ability to work well with others. Each week a new contestant is “fired” by …

This week’s “Legend of the Seeker” was far better than past episodes. “The Legend of the Seeker” is based on Terry Goodkind’s sword of truth series of books, and for the first time watching an episode felt like it was really connected to the book.
I’ve been trying to be …

I like the television series Bones but have not been a fan of more recent episodes because the cases are a bit boring. The episode “The Man in the Bear” is one that should serve as an example of what this show used to give us for entertainment compared …

Twilight Zone is famous for its interesting stories with a strange twist. Forest Whitaker hosts this six-disk set. I’m not sure what year these stories were filmed as the back of the box uses Roman numerals (MMII) but I think its from the 80s or 90s. The box set …

Columbo: Now You See Him is another Jack Cassidy appearance, and those are ones that make me groan a lot. For whatever reason, a Cassidy guest starring role means a boring show to me. He just has a smirk and a demeanor as these villains that go …

There was one thing I really loved and one thing I really hated about The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: A.K.A. Kansas. Overall, the negative rules and that means this is a show I could really live without.
Kelly Rutherford reprises her role as Dixie Cousins. This time, …

The second episode of Orchestra United was a little slow for me somehow. I can’t really put my finger on it, but there was something that didn’t keep me as hooked as I had been. Still, the hour long episode from the United Kingdom had some solid …

As I have mentioned before, I’m a big fan of watching Gilligan’s Island re-runs on weekends. But, even though I do enjoy most of the episodes (I’ve seen every one several times), there are some that just aren’t as good as others. One of these is the episode “Forward …

Once again, I was stuck watching Scooby Doo movies with my daughter this weekend. But, at least I got to see one I haven’t seen before; Scooby Doo and the samurai sword.
This was an OK movie but still not as good as others. Scooby and the Mystery Gang are …

One outing from The Carol Burnett Show’s final season on the air included James Garner and George Carlin, along with regulars Tim Conway and Vicki Lawrence. Below are some thoughts about this hour of variety entertainment.
–Burnett joked about being on the unemployment in 3 weeks, but the real …

I really wanted to like this cooking show as I love to watch shows where people are getting down in the kitchen. I also like the fact that there is a black man on television who embraces being in the kitchen. In any case I …

I am always up for a good western (leftover from a father who loved a decent cowboy movie). Being a woman, not only do I appreciate a good western, I appreciate a good cowboy with bad boy appeal, you know the kind that romance novels are written around.
“Legends …

From February 1968, the 20th show of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea’s last season (it’s fourth) on television, Man-Beast, aired. It’s a show I have mixed feelings about because of the story’s plot. The primary guest star was Lawrence Montaigne, who played a scientist named …

M*A*S*H: Henry in Love is an awkward show because I just don’t understand the mentality behind all the marital cheater that goes on. It makes no sense to me, but that’s because I’m pretty traditional. What occurs in M*A*S*H: Henry in Love, is that Henry Blake (McLean …

That Girl: Never Change a Diaper on Opening Night is essentially the first regular show after all of the introductions have been done in the first two showings. In this episode, Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) is auditioning to be accepted into an acting workshop. The complication is …

Alan Carr: Chatty Man is a pretty good show that is usually worth watching. Alan Carr has grown on me since he branched out with this, his own chat show, and I think he is a very funny guy. He will not mind me saying that he …

I haven’t seen the show Frasier in a long while. But, I was a bit bored tonight and there wasn’t a whole lot else on TV so I tuned it in to the episode “Shrink Rap.”
The great thing about the show is the interaction between Frasier and his brother …

The first show of —˜Seven Days on the Breadline’ in this three part series was televised tonight (Tuesday) on ITV at 9.00pm and based on the synopsis I thought it might be interesting, which it was. Take four famous British celebrities who are used to living a lifestyle …

Outlaw: In Re: Tracy Vidalin gave Jimmy Smits’ character of ex Supreme Court Justice Cyrus Garza a bit of unexpected drama to tackle. This story includes a twist towards the end that some might see coming early on, but others will be surprised at. It is one …

I just finished watching all one hundred and twelve episodes of the Japanese animated series Yu Yu Hakusho, and I’m happy to say that it’s at the top of my list of one of the best Japanese action animation I’ve ever watched. If you are or ever were a …

My wife and I watched a season one episode of Law & Order Criminal Intent last night; Enemy Within, that turned out to be a decent episode.
This is, of course, one of the first episodes of the series and involves Goren and Eames having to investigate an arson at …

The Virginian: “The Man Who Wouldn’t Die” is the 19th episode of the first season of this color western TV series. It features Lee J. Cobb as Judge Henry Garth who insists that he’s killed a man. He reports the incident to the authorities, but when they …

In December 2003, Walter Koenig sat down and talked a bit about the influence of Star Trek in Life Beyond Trek: Walter Koenig. At first, I thought his was going to be very different than the intimate expose that Leonard Nimoy had done. That’s because the first …

Super Mario World - “The Night Before Cave Christmas” is not quite as memorable or entertaining as the other “holiday themed” episode, namely “Ghosts ‘R’ Us”, but I do like this episode because it is one of the few times in this episode that we actually get to see …

This episode starts with SG1 stepping through the gate onto a planet whose volcano is about to erupt. There is ash flying everywhere and Jack tells Daniel to dial them home. For once, Daniel does not argue about sticking around, well, until he sees people lying around …

Interested in the paranormal? Are you a skeptic when it comes to ghosts? Are you looking for documented proof of an afterlife? If you have not yet watched Ghost Hunters, this show is for you.
Ghost Hunters was created by two men–Grant Wilson and Jason Hawes. …

The first night which is about the two Davids–David Cook and David Archuleta–faced the final battle.
Anyway, it was a good face-off. New information were presented. In fact, it was there where I knew that they’ve never been in the bottom three. It has been said that this season is …

My main issue with M*A*S*H: The Birthday Girls is that I have a hard time believing that no one knows when Margaret Houlihan’s birthday is. Considering all of the various birthdays they’ve celebrated on this long running series, it’s just a little difficult to go along with the …

Ghost in the Shell Episode 17 has Aramaki goes to visit an old friend and they are taken hostage by men trying to steal wine.
This episode was pretty good, as far as the filler episodes go. It’s not that the filler episodes are bad; it’s just that they’re …

The September 28th edition of Mad Hungry with Lucinda Scala Quinn dealt with breakfast foods for dinner. Now that’s my style. I love breakfast foods, but I do not eat breakfast. I can’t explain it, but if I do, I tend to get sick. My …

From the Earth to the Moon was a marvelous and dramatic account of the United States quest to reach the moon. The early part of the quest is focused more on the race with the Russians over who would conquer the moon first, while the second part is …

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 …

Jeremiah: Journeys End in Lovers Meeting was a little different in theme, and I rather enjoyed it because it dealt with belief. Belief isn’t tangible; it’s deep inside, part of the heart and soul. If you believe, you understand, and those who don’t believe always seek proof.
Kurdy …

Two years ago, when Metro TV broadcasted “Oprah Winfrie Show” for the first time, I didn`t have any idea why people like this program so much. Then, I tried to prove it by sitting nicely in front …

Dr. G: Medical Examiner is about Jan Garavaglia. Actually, it is her show! Dr. Jan Garavaglia is a medical examiner in Florida and Dr. G: Medical Examiner is about her cases. Don’t run off yet, this show is very information and interesting. You will not see blood and guts …

I’m not a particular fan of The Equalizer. I tried watching it a few times when it was on originally, but it didn’t capture my fancy and neither did its star, Edward Woodward. He does have the look, very polished and whatnot, but he didn’t get my …

From season one, Have Gun - Will Travel: The Five Books of Owen Deaver, Richard Boone’s Paladin heads to a frontier town called Three Winds to help out a dead friend’s son. The son is trying to bring Philadelphia law to the town, and it’s a recipe for …

This production piece called Designing the Final Frontier was another very intriguing look inside the world of Star Trek. It focused on the design elements, of course. Matt Jeffries is interviewed in late 2002. A few things stuck out in my mind.
One was the naming of …

I discovered a lot of television series last year, but one of them that remains my favourite is “Devious Maids”. This is despite its very close resemblance to one of those daytime soap operas.
I would watch “Devious Maids” every Sunday night when it would air on Lifetime, and I …

In M*A*S*H: No Laughing Matter, Major Charles Emerson Winchester III sees a chance to finally be transferred back to Tokyo when the colonel who sent him to the 4077th visits the camp. Robert Symonds returns as Colonel Horace Baldwin. The odd thing to me is that Baldwin …

The Twilight Zone: Miniature is what I would call a quiet little story, in part because it’s somewhat fairytale-ish. Robert Duvall plays the role of Charley Parkes, a rather mild man, perhaps timid, reserved, and not getting much out of life. He’s lost in the middle of …

Justice League - “Twilight”, Part Two unfortunately is not quite as solid as part one, in part, because of the story and the dialogue. The story begins to develop holes in it as more is revealed, especially when Darkseid tells of how he will tear down the universe and …

The Prisoner: Checkmate is the conclusion, at last, to this updated renovation of the science fiction show that Patrick McGoohan brought to us in the 1960’s. That show was all from McGoohan’s mind and while it had an ending, a lot of people say that no one really understood …

There will never be jokes that will ever top those based on Cold War politics in the 1970s and 1980s. And, conveniently, the Mork & Mindy episode “Mork and the Immigrant” manages to take advantage of that.
There are a couple things about this episode that stand out. First, you …

Big Brother sometimes drives me batty. I’m nowhere near as hooked as I was during its first season. In fact, I’m not hooked at all anymore. I can barely even remember the contestants’ names. Were there anything else opposite it, I wouldn’t watch, and when …

Chuck is a great comedy and action show that airs on NBC on Monday nights at 8EST. Chuck revolves around the life of Chuck Bartowski. Chuck is working at a Buy More (similar to Best Buy or Circuit City), where he lives a very uneventful life. …
