Full House TV Show
Who doesn’t love Full House? Sure, Danny sometimes gets so cheesy that you almost have to turn the channel, but seriously I could sit for hours watching it and get a fuzzy feeling inside. Cheesy but true.
It’s about a guy, Danny, trying to raise his three girls on his …
America’s Best Dance Crew
I love dance shows. And I love programs that show the dancing skills of different kinds of people. Mario Lopez and his dimples host the show. And the contestants appears to come from all walks of life. Like many different dance show competitions …
Mad TV
MADtv is a hoot to watch. With the cast of people MADtv has, it’s a sure thing that the skits will be funny. My favorites skits involve Stuart and his crazy, overbearing, overprotective mom, Ms. Bunny Swan, the crazy Asian lady which you can never predict what she will …
The Twilight Zone: In Praise of Pip TV Show
The Twilight Zone returns to its half hour format after a questionable fourth season of hour long episodes with a show called In Praise of Pip. In the past, I haven’t been much of a fan of this episode, but the last time I watched it, I enjoyed …
Trust (Starhunter Episode)
Trust is a bit better of a Starhunter episode than the one that preceded it: Peer Pressure. Here the villains of the day are a bit less annoying, and a bit more sinister. I also really like the concept behind the new prison: a completely automated prison …
The Apprentice: S10, Ep 1 TV Show
The tenth season of The Apprentice began with a focus on America’s poor economy and recession. In essence, the theme is: ‘what if you had a second chance?’ This weeks-long interview by Donald Trump is that second chance for all of the candidates. This is also …
Band of Brothers episode 5 “Crossroads”
Band of Brothers episode 5 Crossroads has Easy Company facing off with German resistance and is centered on Richard Winters who has been promoted and has to give a detailed report of the battle.
This episode was really intense and the war scenes in it were insane. You …
Stargate SG-1: Talion
I have very deep problems with Stargate SG-1: Talion, and this time, Vala isn’t the reason. For years, we’ve seen Teal’c be on the edge. His ‘Jaffa revenge thing’ has put the team at risk, especially Jack. I’ve never liked that. SG-1 is said to …
Mork & Mindy: It’s a Wonderful Mork
Wow, who knew a clever show like Mork & Mindy would have gone down the road so many other shows have gone down; doing it’s own version of It’s a Wonderful Life?”
“It’s a Wonderful Mork” isn’t too bad but it’s still something that has been done before. How many …
True Blood on HBO
I just started watching the hit show True Blood from HBO and so far it has been a fun ride. If blood and really explicit sexual scenes don’t make you squeemish or you enjoy that than this show is for you.
The characters are easy to digest and the story …
Lie to Me
I finally got an opportunity to watch the show Lie to Me last night. I’ll confess, coming in on a series in the middle of it, really did create some confusion for me as to who the characters were. But, from what I can tell, the show is definitely …
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Solid Gold Patrol
I have problems with The Solid Gold Patrol episode of Have Gun - Will Travel from season 2. The basic premise is that a corporal in the army has won the New Orleans lottery which was worth $600,000. I must admit straight up that I didn’t even …
Stand Up 2 Cancer 2008 TV Show
The original Stand Up 2 Cancer television event occurred in 2008 and it received enormous attention. The show was aired on all three major TV networks as well as numerous cable channels and networks. It was everywhere, and the hour long show was even replayed a couple …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Heritage of Anger
I can’t say that I’m fond of Have Gun - Will Travel: Heritage of Anger. The main reason this episode of the half-hour western doesn’t work for me is that it all seemed too rush and too easy. A Mexican woman left her son with a couple …
Law and Order: Criminal Intent Season 1, Episode 21
This is a fairly disturbing episode and one that tends to stick with me. Every time I see it, it sticks in my head for at least a day or two. It makes you think about people, and the lengths they go to just to continue making a few …
Sister Sister
Sister Sister is a very funny TV show that has always made me laugh. I thin the episodes are pretty well written and fun. The show is about two twin sisters. Tia and Tamara look a lot alike but they have very different personalities. I think both of the twins …
House TV Episode: The Last Temptation (Season 7, Episode 19)
Synopsis: Masters is finally finishing school and has a couple major decisions to make. Does she want to accept House’s internship offer and, more importantly, will she decide to break the rules for the first time in order to save one of her patients who is dying from cancer …
Lucy Must Be Traded, Charlie Brown TV Show
Peanuts is more than a cartoon. It’s a way of life, entertaining adults and kids. It simply transcends so many boundaries. One of the more recent half hour television specials was called Lucy Must Be Traded, Charlie Brown, and it is full of funny moments as …
20 Most Horrifying Hollywood Murders
I was scrolling down TVguide.com this morning and came across the show 20 Most Horrifying Hollywood Murders on E! Since that sort of thing intrigues me, I figured I would give it a chance tonight.
It was an OK show but it wasn’t as good as I expected it to …
Sea Hunt: Submarine Explosion TV Show
The 16th episode of Sea Hunt’s third season on TV was called Submarine Explosion, and it’s a story that has some potential nasty ramifications for deep sea diver, Mike Nelson (Lloyd Bridges). The ex-Navy frogman has signed on for a dangerous job, that of laying out underwater explosives …

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 64 is the last and final episode of the anime. The story comes to a close as Roy Mustang is visited by Dr. Knox and Dr. Marcoh. Meanwhile, Ed and Al return to Risembol to Winry’s house.
This was the best conclusion to an …
Futurama TV Episode: Hell is Other Robots
I ended up watching one more episode of the show Futurama last night with my daughter (I told her I would before making her go to bed since I hadn’t seen her all day). The episode we watched; Hell is Other Robots, was OK. But, it wasn’t as good …
Batman: The Brave and the Bold: The color of revenge!
This episode is unique in a lot of ways. A lot of the episodes have Batman team up with a different DC superhero. This one has him team up with Robin. Also, the cold opens usually act as their own mini-episode. While that’s the …
Avatar: The Last Airbender: Book 1, Episode 13: The Blue Spirit
This episode picks up pretty much where the last one left off. After the whole ordeal with the storm, both Sokka and Katara have fallen ill. Aang promises to get them some medicine.
If you thought Sokka was amusing on a regular basis, just wait til you see …
The Inbetweeners - Series 3 -
The third series of The Inbetweeners. It got off to a great start in my opinion with the first couple of episodes, especially as it had a lot to live up to after the first two series. I think they also had a lot to live up to because …
Snickers Brownie Ice Cream Sandwich
My wife ran to Walgreens Saturday for a couple things and came back with some dessert; Snickers Brownie Ice Cream Sandwiches.
I’m not a huge fan of Snickers bars themselves. But, I do like Snicker’s Ice Cream and thought the idea of a sandwich made up of two brownies on …
The Prisoner: Do Not Forsake Me, Oh My Darling
Now this is an intriguing show. The Prisoner: Do Not Forsake Me, Oh My Darling gives star Patrick McGoohan a bit of a rest. Most of the show, his mind is in another man’s body, so all we hear are his thoughts. That’s a nice way …
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Who Watches the Watchers?
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Who Watches the Watchers is an episode that might seem somewhat offending and close-minded to some, while others will applaud its stance and attitude on the delicate subject of religion. In this episode, Captain Picard remarks that a culture that believes in Gods …
Ghost Hunters: A Bat out of Hell
Seriously now, is Meatloaf in every show I watch now or what? First he was on House, then he was on Monk and now he was a guest investigator on Ghost Hunters in their episode “A Bat out of Hell.”
In all fairness, he was quite entertaining to watch (though …
Extreme Home Makeover
Extreme Home make over is a reality type of TV show on ABC. It comes on Sunday night�s at 7 central time. The main host is Ty Pennington. Every week they travel to different states to build a house for a family who has experienced something traumatic in …
Cartoon network
I use to watch the Cartoon Network when I was a child, this was back when they where still playing Bugs Bunny all of the time. My children love to watch the television station and I also sometimes enjoy the shows that are on there.
My daughter asked me if …

Adam-12: The Grandmothers
From season four, Adam-12: The Grandmothers has a cute little side story that evolves from a crime at a small shop owned by an elderly woman. Florence Lake plays Mrs. Frieda Pine, the owner of the store. She’s spry and full of vinegar, as the saying goes. …
House show
We have cable tv and one of the better series on cable is a show called House.
House is a medical drama series, and although I am not into medical program on the whole this one is rather good. Hugh Laurie plays House. He is a disgruntled doctor, who suffers …
The X-Files: Season 2, Episode 18: Fearful Symmetry
I remember this being one of the first episodes of “The X-Files” that I ever watched. I also remember not being all that impressed by it. That view still holds up to this day. It’s not terrible, by any stretch, but it isn’t particularly memorable, especially …
The Jerry Springer show
The Jerry Springer show has run its course and needs to be taken off the air for good and the re-runs never need to be seen again. I can’t understand how this show was so popular for so long.
I can’t stand this show because the show is stupid and …
Ron Howard: 50 Years in Film
Turner Classic Movies has produced a wonderfully simple biography on Ron Howard, known to some as Opie on “The Andy Griffith Show” and as Richie on “Happy Days”, and well respected as one of Hollywood’s leading movie directors. It’s called “Ron Howard: 50 Years in Film.”
There’s nothing glitzy …
Scrubs TV Episode: My First Kill
Well, that wasn’t the funniest episode of Scrubs I’ve seen since I started watching the show again, but My First Kill turned out to be an OK episode.
The main plot of this one is J. D. learns that all doctors will eventually kill a patient and, since he hasn’t …
Bones: The Bone that Blew
Well now, that turned out to be a good episode of Bones. “The Bone that Blew” offered us a couple of things.
First, you have the mystery of how an ex-marine turned babysitter ended up killed and burned (resulting in parts of his body to blow away in a big …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Blow Up TV Show
From December 1967, the 12th show of its fourth year, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Blow Up has a new twist for the viewers to enjoy. It’s not exactly the typical ‘body take over’ theme that is so popular in science fiction shows, but it’s more …
Ryan shecklers life on MTV
I’ve only watched this programme a couple of times and I must say it’s the biggest load of crap I have seen on MTV in a while. I’ve been a skateboarder for 6 years and there’s nothing more I want to see than skateboarding being more accepted and recognized. …
Smallville: Comitted
“Committed” the is fifth episode of season eight of Smallville, which now airs on the CW at 8PM on Thursday evenings. This was a character driven episode as opposed to an episode based on an epic battle or interesting villian.
In this episode, Chloe and Jimmy have finally patched …
Mr. Monk Gets Lotto Fever
As far as Monk episodes go, Mr. Monk Gets Lotto Fever was actually one of the worse ones I’ve seen.
While the side-plot of Natalie getting a job as television’s lotto girl was somewhat interesting, the reality was the show itself was a bit cruddy because there was really no …
Friends Season One - The one with the birth
It is time for Carol to give birth to Ross’s baby, but all Ross and Susan can seem to do is argue about who is going to help Carol with the birth more. Ross feels like he should be in a big part of it because after all it …
Stargate SG-1: New Order Part 2
Stargate SG-1: New Order Part 2 makes the big transition official, but not until Jack has been unfrozen and the System Lords sent on their way.
The fun part of this episode is when Thor beams Daniel up to his ship, The Daniel Jackson. I adore that! Daniel …
Trinity Blood episode 21
As the time at hand under goes an critical stage, what are the thoughts of the pure child who accept this to be the blistering reality about him? Or is all just a fabrication of an corrupted mind, crying out from beneath its own sins. All thing have an …
48 Hours: Live to Tell
The hit CBS television show 48 Hours has a new spin, and I’ll say up front that I like it. One of the things I’ve disliked about old episodes of 48 Hours is the drama brought about by the story teller, or reporter. It was like propaganda, …
Sea Hunt: Water Nymphs TV Show
Sea Hunt’s second show of the third season was Water Nymphs. About the first thing I noticed is that this was going to be a flirtatious show with series star Lloyd Bridges, who places bachelor diving expert, Mike Nelson. He’s doing some underwater photography in the opening …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Time Bomb TV Show
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Time Bomb is the second episode of the second year that this wonderful Irwin Allen science fiction series was on the air. Following are some observations about this 1965 episode:
