Fear Factor
The show fear factor has been around for a couple of years and has been going strong. Their idea was wonderful and they test your mental, physical capabilities to its full extent. I have to say they also challenge your mind so much as to how much you can …

Stargate SG-1: Prototype
Stargate SG-1: Prototype is, on the surface, a fairly decent show for the ninth season of this series. It has drama and surprise. My problem is more with characterization and the direction it takes one character.
First things first, in Stargate SG-1: Prototype, the team discovers what turns …

NCIS TV series
NCIS is a show on CBS that—˜s a spin off of JAG. It’s one of those crime and forensic type show but it’s angle is military and naval related. NCIS stands for Naval Criminal Investigative Service. I have to admit that I really didn’t tune into this show until …
The Dick Cavett Show - 2/21/73 TV Show
From February 21, 1973, this episode of The Dick Cavett Show featured Jack Benny, Bill Cosby, and Joe Frazier. It began with the usual monologue, which quickly reminds me why Cavett didn’t make it long run. He’s too dry, which fits his more serious and political style. …
Adam-12: Log 131
Episode 4 of the first season of Adam-12 is another goodie. It’s the show that introduces us to a detective named Jerry, played by Jack Hogan of “Combat” fame. The recurring character is awesome, and it’s really too bad he didn’t show up in even more shows.
The …

Spongebob: Blackened Sponge

Basically, in this episode, Spongebob is brushing his teeth and, in an effort to remove the …
That Girl: The Reunion
It’s time for the alumni to get together in That Girl: The Reunion. The subject of the fourth season episode is Ann’s obligation to organize her class reunion. She’s fine with that at first. After all, the worst part of it is choosing a restaurant, since …
That Girl: The Homewrecker and the Window Washer
From season three of That Girl, we get The Homewrecker and the Window Washer. It’s the first episode that aired in 1969, and it was okay. It’s not a huge favorite of mine personally. However, the color of the show comes from Jules Munshin, who is …
The Twilight Zone: Ninety Years Without Slumbering TV Show
The beauty of The Twilight Zone: Ninety Years Without Slumbering belongs to one person and one person only — Ed Wynn, who portrays Sam Forstmann. Sam is a kind older man living with his daughter and her husband. He has with him an old grandfather clock, a …

Aqua Teen Hunger Force
Never before have I been so entertained when nothing was happening on screen. That’s what it’s like with Aqua Teen Hunger Force, the most popular show in production from William’s Street, the same company that gave us Sea Lab 2021 and

The show revolves around, oddly …

Psych: Lassie did a bad thing
While I’m not as big of a fan as the show “Psych” as I used to be, mostly because I really find it hard to believe everyone is still falling for the fake psychic routine, it does still manage to have the occassional good episode from time to time. …
Sea Hunt: Starting Signal TV Show
From September 1961, Starting Signal is the 35th episode of Sea Hunt’s fourth and last year on television. This under water adventure is another one that is related to a special United States Coast Guard mission.

NCIS: The Boneyard
“The Boneyard” is a very good episode of NCIS. Fornell is back which is always fun for viewers as we get to see the Fornell/Gibbs dynamic that is always entertaining to watch.
Seems the FBI, namely Fornell, has been trying to take down a mobster by the name of …
Gilligan’s Island - Good-Bye Island TV show
Now this episode is more of the good reputation I have come to know and love in the Gilligan’s Island series. The castaways are working together nicely as a team, they have great problem solving solutions and treat each other with respect. These are the excellent morals you would …
The First 48 (A&E)
I absolutely LOVE this show. First, I should mention that I like crime shows (real ones, not dramas) and programs that highlight investigations and forensics. This one focuses on the fact that the first 48 hours of a major investigation are usually the most critical. …
Stargate SG-1: Tin Man
I really enjoy this season one entry. Stargate SG-1: Tin Man is a bit of fun for me. Our team is cloned, well, actually, they become synthetic copies of themselves, and the process of them finding that out and dealing with their emotions is just awesome.
Richard Dean …

MacGyver: The Legend of the Holy Rose Part 1
The fifth season of MacGyver began with another change to the opening theme. I really miss some of the original clips, but they had to update it for the times, I suppose. The mullet is in full tilt, too. I really was never a fan of …
M*A*S*H: Private Charles Lamb
Radar O’Reilly’s (Gary Burghoff) love for animals really starts to become a bigger part of things in M*A*S*H: Private Charles Lamb. We’ve already seen his animal pin where he takes care of an assortment of critters, but now we see how far he’ll go to protect all animals, …

The Veil: The Doctors TV Show
One thing I really like about this anthology series called The Veil is the authenticity I feel from it. I think that comes from it being a product of Hal Roach. The sets are very detailed and even remarkable. Even the costumes seem to fit the …
Prison Break Season 1 Episode 16- Brother’s Keeper
This episode is a bit different from the rest. There are no new points to the story. Instead the entire episode is used as a flashback on the events that had lead to the beginning of the series. It tells the stories of the dominant characters in the story …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Phases
OK, normally I object when the series Buffy the Vampire Slayer decides to have our hero fighting something other than a vampire. But, I’m able to forgive the episode Phases because it at least has her fighting a classic enemy; the werewolf.
Of course, the werewolf has a bit more …
Everybody Loves Raymond TV show
Everybody Loves Raymond is based on the comedy of stand-up comedian Ray Romano. I got hooked on this show when a friend of mine who hardly ever watches this TV starting telling me about it. I figure if he likes it, there’s got to be something worth watching here. …
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 …
American Idiol
I started watching American Idol in their first season because I loved to hear people sing. I thought a show that would give the opportunity to an amazing singer, who might not have a chance of otherwise being discovered, was an excellent idea. I loved watching it every …
CSI Season 1 Episode 16 Too Tough to Die
I really loved this episode. I did not care much for the first case, not because it wasn’t interesting and not because it was not important, but because of all the emotional story behind in. I don’t like it when the writers write some extra sentimental or righteous scenes …
M*A*S*H: The Trial of Henry Blake

Gilligan’s Island - Will the Real Mr. Howel Please Stand Up TV Show
This episode is one of the least favorites of mine. I really can’t stand how the imposter Mr. Howell goes around trying to destroy Mr. Howell’s empire. Mr. Howell has a real challenge playing two different personalities, two different characters, one his usual caring self and the other a …
Cold Case Files
I was home yesterday afternoon and was flipping channels on TV since it was too cold outside to do anything.
One of the shows I ended up coming across was Cold Case Files. At first, I thought I would be a lot like the series Cold Case; in other words, …
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Samaritan Snare
The second season episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, titled “Samaritan Snare” has a few comical moments to it, but ultimately, the episode is a real mess. By mess, I mean the story is pretty weak and implausible and even boring. In this episode, the Enterprise answers a …
MacGyver: Back from the Dead
MacGyver: Back from the Dead brings back a character from season two — Jimmy Kendall. At that point, Jimmy had turned on some mobsters and testified against them. For his protection, he was given a new identity and moved to Florida, where Mac got him a job …
NCIS: Call Of Silence
This is one of my favorite NCIS episodes of all time. I still cry when I watch this episode. It is so full of emotion that even though I know what is going to happen and know the dialogue almost word for word, I still find myself …

This is another good episode to The Cleaner. It’s called To Catch a Fed. In it, William Banks is surprised to see the new truck of his dreams show up on his doorstep. It’s a gift, but it comes with a catch. The gift-giver is a …
