Have Gun - Will Travel: The Day of the Bad Man
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Day of the Bad Man is from season three and is the 17th episode of that year. Directed by acclaimed actress, Ida Lupino, the show is high on comedy, rather than its usual drama. It revolves around the character played by …
Full House Season 4
Full House Season 4 is almost when the show tried to “jump the shark”. Granted it was a transitional time for the show as the kids were starting to grow, but things were still a little odd.
Little Michelle was now a toddler, and fully capable of talking. The …
Hawaii Five-O: King of the Hill
Yaphet Kotto guest stars and turns in a brilliant performance in Hawaii Five-O: King of the Hill. In this show, he plays a Vietnam veteran who happens along when Danny Williams (James McArthur) is playing baseball with some others. Kotto gets hit by a ball, and Williams …
Married With Children Episode 9.17: 25 Years and What Do You Get?
What a marked improvement over the last episode this was. Both plotlines brought laughs throughout. Heck, even Buck had some great dialogue. Which is impressive as, by and large, using voice over to convey animal thoughts, from what I’ve seen, is rarely effective.
It’s interesting how both …
Here Come the Brides: One to a Customer
Here Come the Brides: One to a Customer is an interesting episode from the first season of this ABC series which centers on a newcomer who wants to get married. The twist is that the man is Mormon and he doesn’t want just one wife, but four or …

Midway through the second season of Stargate SG-1, there was a two-part episode that gave us more information on the Tok’ra race, which had been introduced earlier in the year in the episode In the Line of Duty. Stargate SG-1: The Tok’ra Part 1 is an interesting episode.

Scrubs - TV Show - E4
If you are yet to watch the t.v sitcom Scrubs, then in my opinion you are really missing out. It was a show that took me ages to get round to making time for, but sometimes you have to sit down with shows like this and just give it …
The Virginian: The Strange Quest of Claire Bingham TV Show
From April 1967, The Virginian: The Strange Quest of Claire Bingham was the final episode of the fifth season. After an amusing opening scene with James Drury as The Virginian and a couple of odd and end scenes, including an action oriented chase of a Medicine Bow posse, …
The Andy Griffith Show: The Manhunt TV Show
The Andy Griffith Show: The Manhunt is another solid outing for the first season of this wonderful family television series. It’s a bit of a face off between this small town of Mayberry, its sheriff and his deputy, and the bigger state police of North Carolina and the …
Sanctuary show
Sanctuary is a new TV show on the SyFy channel. I was skeptical about the show at first. I mean the concept looked intriguing by the overall look of the show looked a tad too cheap for me, plus it was on the SyFy channel. I guess I should’ve …
FIOS TV
Verizon launched its television service, FIOS TV, about two years ago. I am lucky enough to live in one of their testing areas and was very excited about the prospect of having my TV, phone, internet and cell phone all from one company - and on one bill.

Stargate SG-1: Cor-ai
Continuing on with season one of Stargate SG-1, the episode entitled Cor-ai has some fine moments in it.
The one thing that has always confused me about this episode, though, is just why Jack O’Neill is so snarky with Daniel Jackson. The two, along with Sam Carter, spend the …
The Andy Griffith Show TV Episode: Mayberry on Record
Like I mentioned in another review, I was home with the kids yesterday and, while rocking my youngest daughter to sleep, I found myself watching some episodes of the Andy Griffith Show.
One of these episodes, entitled “Mayberry on Record,” wasn’t too bad.
This one had a man coming to Mayberry …
Ghost Hunters: Hindenburg Crash Site
I wasn’t really excited about last night’s episode of Ghost Hunters; well, at least not from the paranormal end of things.
I liked the fact they were investigating the famous site of the Hindenburg explosion and there was quite a bit of history about the wreck explained that I didn’t …
Stargate SG-1: Endgame
Stargate SG-1: Endgame has some fun moments in it for me and makes for a nice season eight episode of this long-running TV series. Among my favorite scenes:
–the opening, where the two technicians working the graveyard shift talk; it’s just so normal and weird at the same time; …
Undercover Boss: 7-Eleven
The latest episode of Undercover Boss had the CEO of 7-Eleven, Joseph M. DePinto, taking on a false identity to check out just how well his stores really do. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, I applaud the CEOs who have the guts to do …
Bones: A Night at the Bones Museum
I took the time to watch the new episode of Bones last night “ A Night at the Bones Museum” and it turned out to be halfway decent.

Laramie: The Lawless Seven TV Show

Here is a review on the TV drama, Desperate Housewives After the Tornado. How do you get back on track after almost the whole neighborhood has been destroyed by a disaster such as the Tornado? And the episode after the Tornado on Desperate Housewives should be watched. …
Ghosthunters International: Port Arthur Prison Episode
I love watching Ghosthunters, and today there is a Ghosthunters marathon being aired on Syfy. Although I didn’t start watching this one from the very start, I think I was lucky enough to catch it some time after it started and see the GHI team in action capturing so …

Medical center show
Out of all the medical shows featured on tv along with Marcus Welby,md, Dr. Kildare, and Ben Casey in the 70’s along came Medical Center featuring the heart throb Chad Everett. After 10 years it was finally not renewed and I was devasted. Nick at night had …
Hulk Hogan Celebrity Championship Wrestling
I have seen the show that has crossed the final frontier and essentially ruined television forever. It is called Hulk Hogan’s Celebrity Championship Wrestling.
What is it with television writers. Do they all get stoned one night and think “Hey, let’s take a bunch of has been celebrities and train …
Family Guy
The television series known as Family Guy has proven itself to be one of the best cartoon series that is around today. Not taking anything away from the other cartoon series, but this one is more additive than so many others it is ridiculous. The characters of the Family …
Grey’s Anatomy
Yet another hospital drama! Boring, not! It’s not a copycat of ER like one review I read over the world wide web. Grey’s Anatomy is not overrated nor is it filled with overacting characters. I consider this one of the most realistic shows today. The scenes are not overly …
Simpsons: Little Orphan Millie
I hadn’t seen the Simpsons episode “Little Orphan Millie” before tonight and have to say it was pretty good.
This one focuses on Millhouse more than other episodes. His parents, who went through a bitter divorce in earlier seasons, get back together and re-marry. But, on their honeymoon, they fall …
The Virginian: Vengeance Trail TV Show
Vengeance Trail was the 15th episode of the fifth season of The Virginian. This particular outing focuses quite a bit on newcomer, Don Quine, who plays Stacey Grainger. He’s just too wooden, and his character here is suddenly very idealistic compared to just weeks ago when he …
YOUNG SHELDON, series
As a fan of THE BIG BANG THEORY, I couldn’t help but watch its spin-off YOUNG SHELDON.
Honestly, when I found out that the leading roles would be given to children, I had my doubts, but would the series be interesting? After all, children are much harder to play …
Ghost Hunters Series (television program)
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 …
Emergency!: Nurses’ Wild
Emergency!: Nurses’ Wild has some really wonderful moments in it, both on the humor front and the dramatic stage. This first season show confronts prejudice, of different styles. One story has Dr. Morgan (Ron Pinkard), who is an African-American, making a judgement on a hippie having a …
CSI Season 5 Episode 13- Nesting Dolls
I thought this episode was really interesting, just from the point of view of the human drama of it. I don’t know if the investigation was really that interesting or exciting. I do know for sure that the acting like a Russian part did not go well. It was …
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex: 2nd Gig Episode 5
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd Gig episode 5 has Section 9 going after an assassin who is trying to kill the Prime Minister for ignoring the refugees.

Robot Chicken TV show
Robot Chicken is a sketch comedy show on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim lineup. It’s animated, but not in the traditional moving pictures manner. It’s actually the product of stop-motion animation, making heavy use of action figures and dolls.
A lot of the humor is of the shock or …
Jeremiah: And the Ground, Sown with Salt
Jason Priestley guest stars in Jeremiah: And the Ground, Sown with Salt, a show that stars Luke Perry. These two actors were quite the rage back in the days of Beverly Hills 90210, a series I never cared for. I’ve been surprised by Perry in this science …
The Dick Van Dyke Show (TV Show) - The Last Chapter (Episode)
“The Last Chapter” is the final episode of “The Dick Van Dyke Show”. “The Dick Van Dyke Show” is easily one of my favorite sitcoms of all time, but it’s series finale, oddly enough, happens to be my least favorite of the series and I can think of many …

Prison Break Season 3 Episode 2- Fire/Water
