Star Trek: The Next Generation - Booby Trap is an episode that is quite good. What I particularly like about this episode is the music. It is exceptionally good in achieving a sense of wonder and awe in scenes that warrant it, while in other scenes, projecting tension and …

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 …

On the Run- Globetrotter
This is yet another great episode of the show On the Run- the show that tells the stories of real life sophisticated and unusual criminals, most of which love to live the high life on someone else’s money.
In this episode we get to hear the story …

After four episodes of 30 Rock I am beginning to get the feeling that the writers of the show don’t know exactly where they want to go with it. Jack, the boss, is the prime example of this to me. His character seems to have changed nearly every episode.
Still, …

Last night’s episode of House, Brave Heart, wasn’t too bad.
After suffering through a long baseball game waiting for it to come on, I was a bit confused at first because it looked a lot like a cop show. But, it turns out the case involves a cop who comes …

The Andy Griffith Show: Andy Saves Gomer is a standout episode that lets Jim Nabors shine as the lovable Gomer Pyle.
The show opens with Andy and company getting a letter from Barney, who is in the big city with his cousin, Virgil. It’s interesting that in this fourth …

I was never a fan of Hank Aaron, but I have to say that he’s an example of what a Hall of Famer should be in baseball. Watching him as the honoree of this The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast reminds me how far south baseball has gone with …

Joey receives a call from his agent to send him on an audition where he is going to have to speak French during the audition. While Joey has never spoken a word in French in his whole entire life, he has it on his resume, so he needs to …

I am usually an avid watcher of Fox Five news. But now they have a new show called Good Day Xtra. I was surprised to see that this show, which is on from 9am to 10am, features some of the anchors from the regular news program. …

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 …

My daughter ended up watching another episode of the 1980s show Faerie Tale Theater this past weekend; Goldilocks and the Three Bears. And, much like other episodes of the show, this one proved to be pretty entertaining for pretty much everyone in our family.
They kept the same basic plot …

I watched this last year with great anticipation. As any of you Trailer Park Boys fans …

For all intents and purposes, M*A*S*H: Hawkeye is a one-man soliloquy as Hawkeye Pierce, traveling alone in a jeep, swerves to avoid hitting some Korean children and ends up turning over the vehicle and getting a bad hit in the head. Realizing that he might have a concussion …

This is a great example of why the show is so amazing. That was fantastic episode and I enjoyed it very much. It really kept me on the edge and I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen. And because the story was so personal, you could …

I had fallen out of love with Heroes. The first season was quite good. The second season was slow for the first half, and while it started to pick up near the end, the writer’s strike broke the momentum and cut the season short. The third …

Our local TV channel has just brought us the localized version of “The Singing Bee”. A show produced by NBC, an all American reality show aired only about 2 seasons and did not last very long because it did not have a good tv ratings in America. Having said …

Judge Judy is a pretty good show and there are quite a few things that I really like about it. The first thing would be Judge Judy herself, she is very entertaining and I love her attitude because she is tough and she doesn’t take no crap from anybody …

First and foremost, I must admit that I have somewhat of a minor obsession with all things supernatural. That being said, this is one of the few television shows that captures some of the aspects of ghost hunting that I find most interesting. This pair of Roto-Rooter …

On tonight’s show, the remaining celebrities all had to do two different dances, which is always a huge challenge for them.
Natalie and Alec opened with the Paso Doble to the tune of American Woman. It just didn’t quite work for some reason. Technically, she did okay, but …

Memoir from Mr. Sulu from early 2004 was another update on one of the people who made Star Trek the legend that it is, George Takei. Takei played Sulu, the helmsman. He’s always been very pro-Sulu, advocating for his character and his advancement. I love that …

Cowboy Bebop Session 7: Heavy Metal Queen is proof that Cowboy Bebop can play in a different genre than it is used to normally portray. Heavy Metal Queen is as the name says, about Heavy Metal Rock music and the life of Truckers in the Twenty-Third Century. As you …

I’m not sure about Family Guy some weeks. Some episodes are very clever and unique. Others, like “Tales of a Third Grade Nothing” lack any real substance to them.
This episode basically has Peter having to repeat the third grade because he is seeking a management position and it is …

On September 19, 1982, a new television show hit the airwaves, and I was there for the happy start. One of my favorites, Richard Dean Anderson, had left General Hospital and was quickly cast in Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, which was based on the famous musical of …

The only time I can get my one-year-old son to sit still is every 4pm when back to back episodes of Upin and Ipin the Series is on at Disney Channel Asia. For those not familiar, Upin and Ipin is a Malaysian television series that centers on a pair …

I was flipping channels last night waiting for my wife’s show, Project Runway, to come on. And, I ended up coming across a re-run of the show Monk; Mr. Monk and the Earthquake. Since there wasn’t anything better that I could find (despite paying for 250 channels), I ended …

From January 1988, Private Eye: Hollywood Confidential was very interesting story. The series stars Michael Woods as private eye, Jack Cleary, and Josh Brolin as his assistant, Johnny Betts. The exciting part for me, though, was with the guest star, Adam-12’s Kent McCord.
In Hollywood Confidential, McCord plays …

We needed an extra television in our home, and being on a tight budget we bought the 13inch Citizen JCTV1372SC Colour Television for $89.99 CDN from our local supermarket. I had bought other Citizen electronic products before, including a small stereo that had a really great sound so I …

The Bravo reality show Shear Genius hosted by Jacklyn Smith is superb. Who would of thought to make a reality show about hair cutters. The challenges are so interesting, and especially if you are female you know how women are always looking for new hairstyles. You …

The television, cartoon version of Santa Claus is Coming to town is my personal favorite of all of the Christmas, holiday special shows.
I like to watch this particular show year after year.
This is where Kris Kringle comes to town to give presents to all the children, only to find …

I just love this programme and I am eagerly awaiting to hear whether it is back on again this Autumn. Normally the new series starts about this time, and I have watched every series since the beginning.
Not only do I really enjoy this programme so does my son. …

There are great episodes of the series Buffy the Vampire Slayer and then there are episodes like “I Robot .You Jane” which, in the words of the comic book guy on the show the Simpsons is “The worst Episode Ever.”
Normally, Buffy episodes do one of two things; they either …

Gary Unmarried is the show that Professor Payne left Ghost Whisper to star in. His new name is Gary, and I can’t remember the last name. I just know that he’s just as cute in jeans and a tee-shirt as he was in a suit and tie.
Now if the …

I hear praises about cable television on dramas and comedies aired on free channels more than I do in reality. In the real world, where people pay expenses, people complain about how the channels they receive with cable are not worth the price. My family owns Wave Broadband, and …

The Twilight Zone: Judgment Night aired in December 1959 and took place in 1942. It centers around a man who isn’t clear on his own identity, but he does know a lot about German submarines and U-boats. This makes him suspicious to the captain.
One quick note of …

What I first noticed about this episode is how completely the producer and screen writer can thoroughly turn people’s lives upside down, and they do a good job of it here. There is a whole lot of uncertainty throughout the show, uncertainty that causes other problems even the break …

This was a great episode too. Shawn and Gus end up being invited to a fancy …

I have always enjoyed The King of Queens TV show. It is one of the best TV shows ever made in my view. I think this show is very funny. Leah Remini does a great job of playing Carey in the show. She is very pretty and sexy. I …

When Nick Jr. first came out with Diego: Animal Rescuer, my first thought was; well, they have Dora and obviously need something for the boys to watch.
But, as I found out, the show isn’t just meant for young boys. My daughter loves it as well.
Diego is a young child …

I rather enjoyed Probe: Untouched by Human Hands from beginning to end. This quirky series about scientific genius Austin James (Parker Stevenson) ending up solving crimes is a little off center and thus unique enough to keep my attention. This second episode of the series starts with secretary …
