Mayberry loves the idea of show business. This is actually the third episode in the series’ premier season that has dealt with the entertainment industry in some way. In The Andy Griffith Show: Mayberry on Record from February 1961, a man named Maxwell arrives in town claiming …

I have recently become a huge fan of Stargate SG1, even though the show has been off the air (new episodes anyway) for a few years. Seems that is what I usually do….begin watching a show and becoming engrossed in it in later years, only to have to …

Maybe its just me, but this fall season a new show called Jericho is on prime time television and I have attempted to watch the show three times now and I have not a clue what the main idea is. I get the idea that the town has …

Stargate SG-1: Crusade is definitely not a favorite show. The biggest problem with it is that Claudia Black is back as Vala, and that’s a sure sign of disaster. The horrid premise has her in the Ori galaxy using a device to contact the SGC, and in …

The West Wing was created by Aaron Sorkin, who previously had an excellent, under-rated series called Sports Night. The West Wing is a fictionalized account of the White House. Martin Sheen plays president Jeb Bartlett. While Bartlet is ever present, the focus of the show is …

After the influence that I got from America’s Next Top Model, I was hooked in watching Tyra’s recently produced TV reality show, “Stylista”. Unlike Top Model wherein Tyra is hosting the show, Stylista has Anne Slowey from Elle Magazine hosting the show. It also stars Joe Zee, creative director …

Another season seven story of Wagon Train was The Andrew Elliott Story, starring Dick Sargent of Bewitched fame as the title character. Interestingly, he’s only seen in flashbacks.

Last night’s new episode of The Simpsons “Homer and Lisa Exchange Cross Words” probably wasn’t as funny as I expected it to be. However, I’m going to give it points for creativity.

I have been waiting quite impatiently for the new season of Dexter. It is one of my most favorite shows of all times and it always keeps me on the edge of my seat. It has remarkable writing and amazing actors to play the written words.
In the previous season, …

I guess I will give something away on this review. This is the first time that the case …

This show had the potential to lead to a really funny and good subplot, and while it’s great here, they really don’t do anything with it. In Due South: Mountie Sings the Blues, Constable Turnbull is in deep like with Francesca and acts on it. It’s very …

Ghost movie, or horror movie, you may call this tv series. It tells a story about a woman who is able to see and communicate with the dead! Spooky huh? Well, this is an interesting series to watch for people who loves that kind of stuff, …

“I am alone. Somebody come get me.” This is the phrase that defines this show, and it’s a powerful one.
In my opinion, Jeremiah: City of Roses has been the best show of the series thus far, and in it, Malcolm-Jamal Warner really shines. When we first …

I fully admit that I own every season of Full House on DVD, even though special features are sadly lacking. The second season is when the show began picking up, and when it started to find its footing.
As much as I love the show, even I have to …
