Wife Swap
I have watched this show a couple of times on lifetime movie network. It is somewhat interesting and entertaining to watch. Some episodes are a lot better than others. I think it gives people a learning experience who do the wife swap. My favorite part of the show is …
Shatner’s Raw Nerve: John Edward
The latest edition of Shatner’s Raw Nerve featured psychic John Edward. This is the show where William Shatner has a one-on-one casual and unscripted conversation with someone, in this case Edward. I’ve found many of these shows to be pretty fascinating. This may be the first …
Medium Season 4 Episode 3- To Have and to Hold
Medium Season 4 Episode 3- To Have and to Hold
This time they have manages to write a really freaky episode. Not that it was stranger than usual, is that the creepy guy in the episode went all the way to create that fantasy that creeped me out. But then …
Legend of the Seeker: Sacrifice
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 …
The Andy Griffith Show: Crime-Free Mayberry TV Show
Music opens The Andy Griffith Show: Crime-Free Mayberry from November 1961, the show’s second season. I love hearing the sing along moments or just any time like this one when Griffith’s Andy Taylor plays the guitar and lets out with some song or another. This one is …

Tom&Jerry - Episode:- The Invisible Mouse

This episode starts off almost …
Everybody Loves Raymond: The Sneeze
Wow, that was one of the funniest episodes of any series I have ever watched. I haven’t watched the show Everybody Loves Raymond all that much but the episode that was on “The Sneeze” was absolutely hilarious.
Basically, Raymond is at an airport and someone sneezes on him (which, in …

Garoyles Episode 2.9 City of Stone part 1
This begins the next multipart saga since the pilot. It’s fitting as this ties into the events of the pilot.

MASH: The Joker is Wild
I was watching some MASH re-runs and came across one of my least favorite episodes “The Joker is Wild,” just because it was kind of pointless and one of the most un-funny episodes of the show I have ever seen. And, I’ve seen almost every single episode of it …
Trigun Episode 20

Reba
I would say that alot of the things that happen on this show are unrealistic. Such as the woman that your husband had an affair on you with and left you for probably would not be coming in to eat dinner with you or sit at your kitchen table …
Adam 12 - Log 95: Purse Snatcher
Log 95: Purse Snatcher is the third episode from the third season of Adam-12, NBC’s hit police drama. Adam-12 is one of the shows that I refer to as Webb-TV, meaning it came from the mind of Jack Webb. It has a story to tell and it …

The Real Ghostbusters: Season 1, Episode 51: Hard Knight’s Day
Normally, I really like it when the show incorporates literature and mythology into the plot lines. As such, you’d think that I would’ve been able to get behind this episode as it centers around Arthurian lore. Yet somehow, this episode didn’t work for me as much as …
20 on 20
On directtv there are music channels that are xm. Well this channel is called 20 on 20. Overall it’s pretty good. I like some of the other music channels a lot better but they are pretty good. Some times I go to it and they don’t have anything good …
The Tudors
I am a big fan of Tudor history, I love the recent historical fiction that has come out and I was really pleased to see that Showtime had made a show about the the Tudors - appropriately named “The Tudors”.
First of all those of you that are history buffs …
MTV’s Engaged and Underage
I’ve recently been watching Engaged and Underage on MTV. On the show they profile a new couple each week that has gotten engaged, and is currently under the normal age for getting married. I’m not exactly sure what the actual “normal” age is for getting married.
Some of the kids …

Stargate SG-1: Lost City Part 1
Stargate SG-1: Lost City Part 1 was the first of a two-part season ender for the science fiction show. While much of it is excellent, I have problems with other facets of the production.
This show marks the end of an era, and it’s not one I liked. …
CSI
I have become an addict of CSI. I am a mystery lover anyway and when I saw CSI from the first time I was hooked. I even have one of those digital video recording devices to tape them since they are all on past my bedtime. I am so …
South Park: Cartman Gets an Anal Probe
Ahh, the first episode of South Park. For some reason it is so hilarious to watch cut paper in a stop motion episode. This episode received controversy for Cartman’s jokes, the “dildo” scene and Kyle kicking his little brother. However, a bunch of my friends and I actually stayed …

Television Series “Outsourced” Episode “Touched by an Anglo”

Family Guy 8×08: Dog Gone
Family Guy continues its eighth run with this Brian focused episode, “Dog Gone” a pretty standard tale of Brian at odds with the world that doesn’t really deliver too many laughs, but proves a funny enough outing in this largely mediocre eighth season.
When Brian hears his novel “Faster …
The Fall Guy: The Japanese Connection TV Show
I’m not sure, but I think The Fall Guy: The Japanese Connection would have been better called The Hawaiian Connection. This is the show starring Lee Majors, who plays a stunt man named Colt Seavers whose side job is working as a bounty hunter. Most episodes start …

Junkyard Wars
You can never think of how useful junk could be, before you watch junkyard wars ! The useless looking cars, with antique looks, and parts missing, can be combined with intellect and passion, to make a competitive assembly of sports car, and the machinery can even be used for make …
Stargate SG-1: Ex Deux Machina
Stargate SG-1: Ex Deux Machina was a weird sort of season nine entry for the science fiction series. In fact, the ending is one of those things that people would ward off as being science fiction, so I guess in the end, it makes a weird sort of …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Angel
From the first episode, I had a feeling the reoccurring character Angel was a vampire and the 7th episode “Angel” finally reveals what is somewhat obvious.
I do like the fact you have a vampire who is cursed with a soul and remorse for his killing and is trying to …
My Fair Wedding with David Tutera tv show
One thing I absolutely dread watching is those wedding reality tv shows I would always see airing on different television channels, and one of those was “My Fair Wedding with David Tutera”. However, it was a limitation of choices that caused me to start watching it and liking it.
I …
That Girl: That Senorita
There’s an odd thing that I noticed in That Girl: That Senorita. It’s the fifth season and while things began to ease up in the fourth season, in this one things are definitely looser in tone and style. It’s a sign of the times in which That …
Stargate Atlantis: The Seed
As folks who know me are aware, I’m not a big fan of Stargate Atlantis for many reasons, not the least of which is that I hold it responsible for the deterioration of quality on Stargate SG-1. Now that I’ve said that up front, here are both the …
M*A*S*H: Dr. Winchester and Mr. Hyde
M*A*S*H: Dr. Winchester and Mr. Hyde is one of those shows that I want to like, but because I love animals I have a hard time really enjoying it. This is even though it all turns out okay. It’s just the thought that perturbs me.
The comedy portion …
Highway Patrol: Gambling TV Show
I am thoroughly enjoying the opportunity that the ThisTV channel is bringing to its viewers by presenting some classic television shows such as this one, Highway Patrol. It’s been so long since I’ve seen these, and they are a delight to watch again. It’s not that it …
Star Wars: The Clone Wars - Episode 1.17: Blue Shadow Virus
The seventeenth episode in the series, “Blue Shadow Virus”, is another genius episode for the first season. This is a territory seldom explored in the ‘Star Wars’ universe, viral and biological weapons. In this episode, a mad Nazi-like scientist operates a secret Separatist bio-weapons underground laboratory on the planet …
Doctor Who: Season 5, Episode 1: The Eleventh Hour
Thus far, each season of Doctor Who has ended with one of the leads departing. First it was Eccleston being replaced by Tennant as the Doctor, than Rose left to make way for Martha, who was subsequently replaced by Donna Noble. Here we have an unprecedented clean …
Burn Notice: Scatter Point
Burn Notice: Scatter Point from season two is the first non-Michael Shanks episode that I can say I really enjoyed. It had me pretty much from the beginning when Michael and Fiona were trying to find Carla’s hangout. There was a funny bit with a pizza delivery …
Ghost Hunters Academy: Final Exam
My wife and I watched the season finale of Ghost Hunters Academy last night, Final Exam. It was an OK episode because I think it ended explaining more about the series than the rest of the episodes did.
For one, we learned that, instead of going home, the class members that …
Gilligan’s Island - Waiting for Watubi TV show
This episode stinks in my opinion. I don’t like watching it since there is too much strife and witchcraft tendencies. Skipper believes all the curse superstition associated with witchdoctors and tiki idols. Waiting for Watubi is full of hardship on the Skippers part and we have to watch …
Avatar: The Last Airbender: Book 2, Episode 18: The Earth King
After being run out of Ba Sing Se, Sokka suggests that they go back. Surprisingly, he dons a positive attitude and actually rallies the group. Toph lampshades this by suggesting that Sokka was brainwashed.

Doctor Who: Season 4, Episode 5: The Sontaran Stratagem
This episode features plenty of returns. The most obvious one being Martha, who calls the Doctor in to help her with a case she is working on. The other two are only noticeable if you are familiar with the franchise in its classic iteration. As I …
