George Clooney on Ellen
Finally, after a long wait, I manage to watch George Clooney on Ellen. I don’t know if all of this was staged, but George certainly got that “shock” look on his face when he was brought by these 2 famous baseball players inside Ellen’s studio. Halfway through, George …
Stargate SG-1: Crystal Skull
Stargate SG-1: Crystal Skull is an excellent episode of this great science fiction series. It brings a bit of personal into the mission picture as Daniel Jackson’s maternal grandfather is an intricate part of the story.
The essence of Stargate SG-1: Crystal Skull is that Daniel gets out of …

This funny episode of That Girl is all about assumptions and just how deeply they can get a person in trouble. The episode is entitled All About Ann, which is actually the title of an article Don Hollinger is writing about his girlfriend, budding actress Ann Marie.
The assumptions …
Ghost Hunters: Ghost of Buffalo Bill
I ended up staying up for the repeat showing of last night’s episode of Ghost Hunters; Ghost of Buffalo Bill. And, I have to confess, I ended up falling asleep during the second investigation (involving someone’s house) and can’t tell you how that investigation turned out. But, I’m guessing …

Seinfeld TV Episode: The Visa
Well, that was a funny episode of Seinfeld last night; The Visa. Yes, it was a re-run that I might have seen before. But, compared to some of the crap that was on at the same time, it was actually a bit refreshing.
Basically, the main story in this one …

Emerald Point N.A.S.: Pilot Part 2
Emerald Point N.A.S. was more soap opera than military drama, and I think I have always regretted that. I knew that it is what it would be all along, but I was hoping for more guts and glory than extramarital affairs and scheming. As the second part …
Duck Dodgers
I was flipping through channels the other day and I came across Duck Dodgers on one of our cartoon channels. I figured it was just a re-run of some of the older Daffy Duck cartoons. But, when I clicked on it, I discovered it was a modernized version of …

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles - Episode 2.10
Funny how the previous episode was titled “Complications” when in this one, things do nothing but get even more complicated, for better or worse? I’m not quite sure. Sarah’s obsession with the three dot symbol from the basement is further explored here for the most part. She comes across …
American Idol
This is a fantastic show where three judges travel around different cities choosing the best singers to go and perform in Hollywood where contestants are eliminated every show until there is only one left standing: the American Idol. The beginning of each season is always hilarious as you …
Batman: The Brave and the Bold: Legends of the Dark Mite
Words can not express how amazing this episode is. It’s written by Paul Dini, which is a major indicator of the high quality you’re in for. It also features Bat-Mite voiced by Paul Reubens.
The episode is just so geekily awesome. There are references galore to the …

Dead Like Me: Curious George
“At the end of the day, all you have are experiences.”
This quote is from the end of Dead Like Me: Curious George, and it’s the end of this show that is the first time I thought I might end up having some like for the main character of Georgia …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Town Where No One Got Off TV Show
For the first time, Ray Bradbury, from whose mind all of these episodes come from, does a unique introduction to his story. He talks more about how he gets ideas. I love these introductions. In the show’s first cable season, there were six episodes and only …

Scream Queens
I absolutely have no idea how in the world this reality TV show made it onto the air. I know that you can basically make a reality show out of anything these days. But this one is so corny that I had to laugh whenever I happened …
Ghost Hunters TV Episode: Spirits in the Night
Well, another Ghost Hunters episode down and even more doubts about why I bother to watch this show in the first place.
This time around, they did investigate a private home rather than a tourist trap. That was OK. I also liked the fact they added a new investigator for …
Spongebob: Frankendoodle
Ok, I will admit it, while one of the stupidest Spongebob Squarepants epiosodes I’ve ever seen, the episode “Frankendoodle” is actually quite funny; in fact, it might be one of the funnier episodes I’ve seen in a while.
I’m still a bit confused about why a pencil lost by an …
CSI Season 5 Episode 14- Unbearable
I felt it was a mediocre episode. It wasn’t bad, but it was not something very interesting and exciting. It was just another episode on the show, waiting to be forgotten. The human factor of the story always surprises me. You can write a really great episode, with all …
M*A*S*H: Ain’t Love Grand
Actor Mike Farrell, who plays B.J. Hunnicutt, finally gets to direct an episode of this great comedy series. M*A*S*H: Ain’t Love Grand has a few different elements going on, including Major Charles Emerson Winchester III (David Ogden Stiers) getting involved with a lady of the evening over at …
Home Improvement: Adios
Since there wasn’t anything really worth watching on TV yesterday afternoon, I ended up watching Home Improvement re-runs; including the one where Randy leaves the show to go to Costa Rica.
This was the first time I have seen this episode (though I have heard about it) and I have …
Blue’s Clues Television Show
There are many television shows out there that are geared to toddlers. My most favourite right now for my two-year old is Blue’s Clues. Blue’s Clues is partly animated and is based on a young man and his puppy.
The puppy provides clues via an animated paw print to his …
Legend: Clueless in San Francisco
This eleventh episode of Legend takes Ernest Pratt and Janus Bartok to San Francisco, which just happens to be where Pratt’s mother resides. I’m not sure, but this may be one of the few shows where a character played by Richard Dean Anderson actually has a living mother. …

Jack and the Beanstalk: The True Story
I’ve never seen the mini-series Jack and the Beanstalk: The True Story until tonight, when it was broadcast in its entirety. Overall, it was a good show.
I don’t know if I like how they exploited the deceased Jim Henson by claiming it was his show. I think that was …
The Parkers TV show
I think The Parkers is an OK TV show. Sometimes they show was funny, but I was annoyed by it at times. I really think this show was not written very well. The main plot of the show was Monique the fat woman trying to hook up with the professor. …
The Wendy Williams Show: Carrie Ann Inaba September 2010 TV Show
I really haven’t watched The Wendy Williams Show from start to finish before catching this September 2010 episode of the talk show. What has often happened is that I’ve seen the last few minutes when changing the channel to tune into the beginning of another show. I …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Beer Bad
You know, I normally like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but some episodes, like “Beer Bad” are just so stupid, you almost hate to admit you watch the show.
I get the whole point of the episode. The writers want to show the dangers of under aged drinking in a form …
Friends season 1 episode 3
The episode 3 called “The Thumb” started very hilariously, where Phoebe got dumped by a guy in subway, and all of the friends were discussing about the nature of the guys while dating. Then we get to see that Rachel is trying to do well as a waitress, and …
Due South: An Invitation to Romance
What we learn in the opening scene of Due South: An Invitation to Romance is that Ray Vecchio’s sister, Francesca, has made her move on Royal Canadian Mountie Benton Fraser. At the end of the last episode, she showed up at the very last moment of the show. …
Spongebob Squarepants TV Episode: Krab Borg
My kids spent a great deal of time watching Spongebob Squarepants over the course of the weekend because a couple of stations had marathons on and it was too cold to send them outside.
As is usually the case, the same few episodes aired at least three different times over …
Star Trek: Elaan of Troyius TV Show
The last episode to air in 1968, Star Trek: Elaan of Troyius was never a favorite of mine. I’m not fond of France Nuyen as an actress, and I really hate her character here of Elaan. Like most episodes of Star Trek, though, there’s always something to …
A-Team TV Episode: West Coast Turn Around
I was flipping channels early this morning while taking care of my youngest daughter (she is an early bird) and came across another A-Team episode I haven’t seen before; West Coast Turn Around.

Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List
Never having been a big fan of Kathy Griffin’s, I was so surprised that I actually enjoyed her show about being on the D-List. On one episode Kathy decided that she was going to go to the Apollo and try to win over a Black audience. …
The X-Files: Season 2, Episode 19: Dod Kalm
This episode had promise, but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to it. It had all the makings of a solid stand alone, isolating the agents, giving them a ticking clock against an unnatural enemy, and even allowing for some character conflict, but the execution wasn’t as good as …
Bud Shootout Selection Show
Once a year, Speed TV brings us the Bud Shootout Selection Show. This year the show was a whopping 90-minutes long, the extended coverage necessitated by the increased number of drivers in this year’s Bud Shootout.
The show was hosted by Steve Byrnes and Kenny Wallace. Byrnes is …
How I Met Your Mother
This is a great sitcom! It is definitely not one for the whole family, but I would highly recommend turning this on after the kids are in bed. It is smart and hilarious!
The show centers around a group of five friends in their late twenties and early thirties living …
M*A*S*H: Hanky Panky
B.J. Hunnicutt (Mike Farrell) becomes one of the masses instead of a lone devoted soul when he cheats on his wife in M*A*S*H: Hanky Panky from season five. While the resolution is okay, I always thought it was a shame that they had this story. It’s just …
