The Great British Bake Off continues with its fifth episode. Each outing has been hosted by two women, Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins, who do the background segments that give viewers some history of the area and the food being focused on in the current round, such as …

Teach - Tony Danza: Homesick is the fourth effort into telling the story about this well known performer teaching for a year at a high school in Philadelphia. Danza had a lot of guts to take on this project, and I’m hoping that by the end of the …

The 27th episode from the fourth season of Highway Patrol was entitled Hitchhiker and aired in April 1959. The theme surrounded a hitchhiker who robbed those who stopped for him. It just proves that hitchhikers have always been a menace and a danger. What I chuckled …

From year three in October 1962, The Andy Griffith Show: The Cow Thief has Sheriff Andy Taylor (Andy Griffith) and his deputy, Barney Fife (Don Knotts), trying to solve, of all things, the theft of cows. Things are complicated, however, when Mayor Stoner (Parley Baer) calls in the …

I don’t like it, and I’ll say that up front. MacGyver: Jack of Lies is the first appearance of the Jack Dalton character. This guy is the same kind of character that Tom Selleck dealt with on Magnum P.I., the annoying chum that he can’t help but …

From Highway Patrol’s third season, Convicted Innocent was the 11th show to air and it did so in December 1957. Broderick Crawford starred as Chief Dan Mathews, the head of the California Highway Patrol. In this show, we also were able to see three different patrolmen, all …

Spongebob decides to purchase a television, but not so that he can watch television, he just wants to be able to use the box for his game of imagination. When the television arrives, Squidward is just baffled as to what Spongebob is actually doing, and he ends up getting …

A highly regarded writer on the hunt for inspiration, a pair of teenage sweethearts wrapped up in an alleged alien abduction, a UFO obsessed local weirdo and a man in black with a striking resemblance to Jeopardy! host Alex Trebek. All of this might make for a rather complicated …

Star Trek: The Next Generation - Justice is the first Prime Directive episode done on this series, although unfortunately, I do not think it is one of the show’s better “message” type shows. In this episode, the Enterprise crew visit a world that is very peaceful and quite laid …

From 1958, Sea Hunt: Girl in the Trunk is a bit of a different story, and that’s partly what makes it interesting; that is, interesting to a point. What was a potentially good and different show turned into a murderous soap opera, and that was sad and disappointing.
The …

The latest show from Bravo is another version of the successful property, Top Chef. Top Chef: Just Desserts is hosted by Gail Simmons, who also judges regular on the original Top Chef competitions.
I’m going to start with what I didn’t like about this show. It took a …

Cover Her Face, Part 3, moves this P.D. James murder mystery along significantly. One of the things I like about this particular outing, though, is that the storyline is much easier to follow than those in later outings. I felt that way about The Black Tower, too. …

Season one of MacGyver continues on with an episode called Flame’s End which featured Tannis Montgomery as Amy Austin. The actress had a short career and according to the IMDB, this was actually her last performance. Watching it again now, I kept wondering why she looked so …

MacGyver: Early Retirement has more of MacGyver on the ice, playing hockey with Pete in a neat little segment, especially when Pete stops three of his shots from scoring. Can we say Mac is a pouter? It was funny. The reason for the excursion for the …

The Munsters - My Fair Munster is a hilarious episode of The Munsters that I always laugh at no matter my mood. Part of what makes this episode so hilarious is the technique that those responsible for the show employ and the technique I am referring to is when …

If you’ve neither seen nor heard of this show before, on the surface, it might seem like nothing more than a quirky sitcom. I myself have known people to write it off as a dysfunctional family living in a funeral home, but if they’d taken the time to watch at …

Omashu has been taken over by the fire nation. Katara and Sokka insist that there are other teachers who can impart the earthbending forms to them, but Aang wants to save his friend.
Azula returns and recruits two friends of hers, Mai and Ty Lee to help her in …

The guest stars in Masquerade: Flashpoint are probably the most notable things about the episode. I wasn’t that much into the plot. I really do like the idea behind this series, that of taking ordinary people and putting them into unreal spy-like situations because they have some …

Shatner’s Raw Nerve: Henry Winkler was a fascinating half hour of television. I’m still amazed by this inventive semi-talk show that William Shatner does. It’s not scripted at all and there’s not fancy introduction. Shatner may speak for all of a minute in bringing on his …

Band of Brothers Episode 4 Replacements has Easy Company joined by replacements for their lost comrades at Normandy and they parachute into the Netherlands as a part of Operation Market Garden. Sergeant Denver “Bull” Randleman is left behind after they engage in a firefight with the enemy and …

For the most part, I like the show Bones. But, some episodes, like this week’s “the Princess and the Pear” tend to be a bit too dumb to be enjoyable.
This one decided to focus on the fantasy world many people enjoy living in. People who attend comic book conventions, …

This is a children’s show on PBS/KCET. The concept is interesting, and unique. In this world, words equal objects. What I mean is that if one puts the letters B A R N together, the word actually becomes a barn, with the letters still clearly visible. …

Stargate SG-1 aired on television for ten years, and it went through some major changes. As someone who prefers the first three seasons, the vintage years as I call them, I wasn’t at all fond of the final two years. Richard Dean Anderson, who played the lead …

I only caught bits and pieces of last night’s Law & Order SVU episode “Lead” but I got to see enough of it to be glad I didn’t sit down through the whole thing.
Yes, they brought back former ADA Alex Cabott back for the episode (and hopefully for good) …

The Star Trek television series has always been a favorite of mine. It’s among the best ever in terms of talking about the human condition and ideals. Gene Roddenberry created this wonderful show which has spawned several spin offs and several movies. This original series starred …

The Japanese show “The Iron Chef” has become so widely popular that it has even spawned an American version that has contributed greatly to the Food Network’s success. I won’t dwell on the American version, but rather on the original dubbed over Japanese version of the show, which …

The Mainstream Media is considered to be any news organization that delivers news. Conservatives try to portray the media as having a bias against conservatives. One of the first things that I would like to say about this is that I don’t see how you can shape …

There wasn’t much on TV tonight so I ended up watching a re-run of the show House that I might have seen before but really don’t remember; Guardian Angel.
This is one of those episodes where he has lost his original team and is still trying to pick a new …

Synopsis: Spongebob and Patrick end up with a “magical” pencil that brings anything they draw with it to life. They think it is great, until Spongebob draws himself and his new character steals the pencil and starts using it for evil purposes.
What I liked about this episode: At first, …

I can’t help but like The Twilight Zone: From Agnes - with Love because it features the adorable Wally Cox in it. Cox plays a computer programmer named James Elwood who takes over working with a computer named Agnes.
Now there is something important to recognize when you watch …

Clive Revill gets Columbo: The Conspirators off to a musical start by singing an Irish song. Then we switch to his character, Joe Devlin, telling tales while at a book signing. Mystery quickly sets in when we observe a stranger watching from the window. This is …

I admit that I am not a big fan of any reality show, and I rarely watch any of the shows on the Women’s Network or Slice in my area, which includes programs such as wedding, weight loss, parenting and fashion reality shows. I am not ashamed to admit, …

I love the show One Tree Hill. It has been a favorite of mine since the first show started. I own seasons one and two on DVD. If I ever have some extra money I will buy the next seasons on DVD. I love all of the characters and …

The Twilight Zone: Living Doll is yet another one of those shows that make me shudder from the start. I’m not interested, I don’t like it, and I hate watching it. It was a nightmare sitting through it even one more time before doing this review.
Living Doll …

I used to like watching The Tyra Banks Show, but it seems to be getting progressively unoriginal. There are a lot of things you can talk about on a talk show, but Tyra is starting to bore me, because lately her topics have been on dating, relationship problems, …

Dominic Purcell continues on in the title role of John Doe in the episode called Save as… John Doe. The opening begins with a blonde woman named Paulette Chambers, who picks up a briefcase of some importance. With her is her German Shepherd dog. This sets …

Ross is finally getting some time to spend with his son Ben, and he is learning to be a father quite quickly when he has him on his own. Since Carol has decided to breast feed their son, she has prepared some breast milk in bottles for him to …

What on earth possessed me to watch the opening episode of The Bachelor Pad? I can’t believe I did it. It was an enormous waste of time. The thing is, I don’t even watch The Bachelor or The Bachelorette. I have seen maybe 3 full …

Jim Davis, perhaps best known as the patriarch on the nighttime soap opera Dallas, guest starred in the Trail Drive episode of the western Laramie. This first season episode has always been a favorite. The show opens with an impressive gun duel between Davis’ character of Hake …

I look forward to the “After the Catch” rewind of the season for Discovery’s “Deadliest Catch”. However, this year, I was greeted with a not unpleasant, yet none too pleasing surprise. Mike Rowe was not the host. Like many others, I have become comforted by Mike’s voice. My little …

One of the first Ghost Hunters episodes I ever saw was St. Augustine Lighthouse. It is also one of the better episodes I have seen from the series.
The TAPS team drives to Florida to check out a massive lighthouse that is reportedly haunted. This episode is great for a …

I am very glad to see that Hetty is back for good on episode 4 of season 4 of NCIS Los Angeles. After the departure of Agent Taylor last month Hetty is right back where she belongs. It think that it was completely unnecessary to take her out of …

I could really sum up this show easily and just call it worth show ever! But Pokemon is a show that really did get on my nerves as a kid. I never really did get the fascination about these tiny monsters who fight each other. I think that this show …

This episode begins with SG1 and some other teams from the SGC helping some villagers who are under attack by gliders. As everyone is running around, gathering people and escorting them through the Stargate, Sam stops to help a man. When she discovers he is no longer …

Wow, I have to tell you, models can be really, really catty sometimes over some extremely stupid things.
This week’s elimination saw one of the models accuse another one of cheating because she saw her use sticky tape on her outfit; which is apparently against the rules because it’s considered …

In The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: Deep in the Heart of Dixie, Socrates has fallen for his boss’ secretary. Unfortunately, this whole part of the plot was pretty predictable and sadly for Socrates, I was right with my assumptions. It wouldn’t be a surprise to many …

The Virginian: Dark Corridor, from November 1968, is a show I watched primarily for its guest star, John Smith. Smith was in my all time favorite western, Laramie, so I tend to notice when he pops up in some of these old show.
James Drury stars as The Virginian, …

If you ever wonder exactly why Sandy the squirrel has made her home underwater in Bikini Bottom on the cartoon Spongebob Squarepants, you get an interesting explanation of it in the episode “Chimps Ahoy” which happens to be one of my favorites on this series.
Sandy gets a visit from …

I love to watch talk shows during the day because it is entertaining and I love the gossip part of it and that is exactly what the Wendy Williams show is all about. Her show is quite different from other shows and she doesn’t have just ordinary people on …

Hawaii Five-0’s pilot episode from September 2010 is designed to introduce us to the new team. This is not a replica of the Jack Lord series; it’s a re-think. It’s very important to go into this series with an open mind. If you are determined to …
