The Dean Martin Show Classics: Volume 4 DVD
The Dean Martin Show Classics: Volume 4 has more fun from the classic The Dean Martin Show. I love going back in time to enjoy this musical variety show. One of my favorite moments is a singing segment with Dean and Petula Clark. They start out …

Everybody Loves Raymond
I have liked the show Everybody Loves Raymond since the first day I saw it. Everybody Loves Raymond is a show created by Ray Romano. It’s a really funny show with a great plot line. I also think that Ray’s parents and Robert are very funny. The show is full …

The X-Files: Season 1, Episode 20: Darkness Falls
Now this is how you do a “Monster of the Week” episode. This episode delivered on pretty much all fronts. It was gripping, it was creepy, and it presented a unique antagonist that challenged the agents’ wits and abilities. Some critics have compared this to “Ice” …

“Anderson Cooper 360” is a live news broadcast on CNN and CNN International that is billed as a show that takes you beyond the headlines. Due to the skill of the primary anchor and reporter, Anderson Cooper, as well as his entire team of reporters and producers, I …
Centennial DVD Set
Centennial was an awesome, all-star mini-series that celebrates the land. That’s an oversimplification, but the epic begins with mountain men daring to enter Native American territory. We see pioneers settle in what becomes known as Colorado, and we go all the way to modern day. It’s …

Code Geass Episode 7 has Cornelia setting a trap for Zero in hopes that he’ll reappear so she can capture him. Lelouch goes, hoping that he’ll be able to outsmart her and win, but things don’t go as planned.

Beast Wars - Gorilla Warfare is an episode that offers quite a lot of action and allows a viewer to see a side of Optimus that is not seen too often in the series. Of course, the only reason Optimus comes unhinged in this episode and becomes excessively aggressive …
CHiPs: Vintage ‘54
CHiPs: Vintage ‘54 had some good moments in it, including some with that lovable elderly lady, Mrs. Downey, played by Marjorie Bennett. She did a few episodes in this first season of CHiPs. This time her car gets stolen and she demands to have it back ‘now’. …
The Secret Life of the American Teenager
Hey, you should be proud of me. A new television series came on TV and, not only did I watch it, I actually got to see the first episode of it (that rarely happens).
But, after watching The Secret Life of the American Teenager on ABC Family, I really find …
Birds of Prey episode 8: Lady Shiva
This episode puts focus on Barbara as an old enemy from her past life as Batgirl seemingly returns from the grave. Even if it was just a flashback to showcase the backstory, it was still nice to see Barbara as Batgirl again.
Said enemy is Lady Shiva, …
Lady of the Lake - Upright Citizens Brigade show
Lady of the Lake was the 7th episode of the first season of Upright Citizens Brigade. It is also, to me, the weakest episode of the entire season. This is mainly due to the titular character, the Lady of the Lake: she just doesn’t work as a …

One of Bikini Bottom’s famous ghosts, The Flying Dutchman, fears that he has lost his touch to scaring people and seeks out Spongebob for help. Spongebob feels that he can get the flying Dutchman back on his feet scaring people in no time. The Flying Dutchman didn’t …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Skeleton TV Show
From February 1988, The Ray Bradbury Theater: Skeleton focuses on a hypochondriac named Bert Harris (Eugene Levy). This is really one of those weird, out there stories that I’m not even sure how to describe. This guy is so nuts about trying to get a doctor to …
Spongebob Squarepants: The Strangler
I saw a Spongebob Squarepants episode yesterday I haven’t seen in a while “The Strangler” and found it to be as funny as I remembered it being.
If you haven’t seen this show and wonder why it is so popular, I suggest watching this episode. Spongebob turns in an infamous …
Street Hawk: Female of the Species
Street Hawk: Female of the Species had Dennis Franz as a guest star. I’m not crazy about him, so that really didn’t do much for me. I was more intrigued by Paul Rossilli, who played a wealthy, highly public figure named Steven Cavanaugh. Think John F. …
Smallville Season 8 Episode 1
This episode I think changed the tone of Smallville. There were a lot of big changes and it impacted the vibe of the show.
Firstly there are a lot of characters missing. lex is gone and it’s hard to imagine Smallville without Lex or wonderful Michael Rosenbaum who …
Medium: Dead Meat TV Show
This May 2010 episode of Medium, which is probably the second to the last of the entire series, really touched home. In fact, it’ll probably be a while before I eat pork again. I’ve gone through phases like that before because I am a huge animal lover. …
Law and Order SVU Season 1 Episode 2- A Single Life
Law and Order SVU Season 1 Episode 2- A Single Life
I’d don’t know if I liked this episode. In the beginning, it looked very interesting, and I know that it had a very strong message, which I felt was in very important to express. But the end …
Masquerade: The Defector
Masquerade: The Defector was a solid episode for this spy drama from January 1984. Rod Taylor stars as an operative for the National Intelligence Agency and he often recruits everyday citizens to get assignments done. These Americans all have some unique or special skill that makes them …
Voyagers!: Barriers of Sound
Voyagers!: Barriers of Sound is an intriguing connection of two historical events. It’s shows like this one that proved how creative Voyagers! could be. It begins with history going wrong with Dwight David Eisenhower almost didn’t get born, or survive. The reason? The telephone hadn’t …
Erlin Montel 2
Erlin Montel 2 is a much more improved and personally to me, more better than the 1st part. This part 2 is more revised and it is more natural to see the main actress playing Erlin to be herself totally. She is plump in this drama but she …
Desperate Housewives: Me And My Town
“Me And My Town” is the episode of Desperate Housewives that first aired on November 30, 2008 on ABC. This was another great episode in a vastly-improved new season.

Models of the Runway: Hair Today, Hair Tomorrow
Well, since I was up anyway after watching Project Runway, I did take the time to watch Models of the Runway again (though I do think the show is getting a bit on the boring side now).
For the most part, it was pretty much the same old stuff. A …
Sonic the Hedgehog
Is it any wonder why this show has lasted so long? During the early and mid nineties, there were actually two cartoon shows based off of Sonic the Hedgehog, who, around that time, had just had his second hit game on the SEGA genesis system. One was okay, but …
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Bird of Time TV Show
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Bird of Time, an episode which aired early in the western’s sixth season on the air, went right into the action, avoiding one of the traditional San Francisco openings. I always lament the lack of the fancy Paladin beginnings. They add …
Law & Order SVU TV Episode: Chameleon
Synopsis: The SVU team tries to prove a prostitute (who killed a man in self defense when he attempted to rape her) is really a serial killer who has killed at least three others.
What I liked about this episode: The prostitute they captured is very manipulative and it was …
Hawaii Five-O: Along Came Joey
Along Came Joey is another episode from season one of Hawaii Five-O that I just don’t like all that much, and the reason is that it surrounds boxing, and I’m not a boxing fan. It’s a violent sport, and I don’t enjoy watching people banging on each other, …
M*A*S*H: The Late Captain Pierce
M*A*S*H: The Late Captain Pierce is a very funny season four episode of this great series. As the title would indicate, a paperwork error has Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda) listed as dead. Even his father has been notified.
Of note here as well is that this episode is …

Seven Brides for Seven Brothers: Gold Fever TV show
In Seven Brides for Seven Brothers: Gold Fever, the youngest McFadden brother, Guthrie, gets some time to show his stuff, and it’s good stuff. Young Guthrie is played by River Phoenix, who died way too young of tragic circumstances. Here, though, in 1982, we see the promise …
Laramie: Street of Hate TV Show
Laramie: Street of Hate, a first year episode of this awesome western series, featured an interesting guest star performance by Charles Bronson, who actually did a lot of television in the late 50’s and early 60’s.
In this hour, Bronson plays Frank Buckley, an outcast from Laramie who has been …
Project Runway Finale, Part 1
Well, just one more episode of Project Runway left since they got through part 1 of the two part season finale.
This episode wasn’t much of a surprise really. Most of the stuff that happened was already revealed in previews; such as the part where Carol Hannah catches a stomach …
Comic Book Superheroes Unasked Documentary

There’s a TV series that has been taking the UK by storm and, if you live outside the UK, it’s quite possible that the BBC will export it to your country. It’s called Ashes to ashes and is a sequel to the series Life on Mars.
The story in both …
Peep Show - Channel 4 - Series 7
I hadn’t realised that it had been a year since the last Peep Show series had finished so I was extremely ready for the new series to begin. Episode one, watching Mark become a further was good, it offered some typical Peep Show moments, but there was part of …
Felicity TV Show
I have to say I don’t like the television series Felicity, it’s kind of a weak show with weak writers and weak characters. For me there is not a lot about this series to like unfortunately.
The overall plot is one I don’t like. I don’t like the …
The Steve Wilkos show
The Steve Wilkos show is one of the best talk shows there are because Steve Wilkos touches topics that many other talk show hosts are scared to touch. Steve Wilkos brings guests such as rapists and child molesters on his show and than teaches them a lesson by scaring …
The Simpsons: Homer and Lisa exchange cross words
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.
The episode starts out with Homer starting a business where he helps couples break up. This storyline was …

Mr. Monk is at Your Service
Today was the first time I’ve seen the Monk episode “Mr. Monk is at Your Service” and thought it was one of the funnier episodes I’ve seen recently.
This episode has Monk going undercover as a butler (or as he refers to it, a house manager) because Natalie suspects the …
