One of the most riveting episodes in season 2 of Stargate SG-1 is called Holiday. It’s a standout episode for Michael Shanks, who not only plays his usual character of Doctor Daniel Jackson, but also the part of Ma’chello, an aged and infirmed inventor of things to defeat …

CSI Season 1 Episode 1
A nice introduction to the series. Right from the start to we get to see the main characters of the story and what is it exactly that they do. Although they are easy on us and perform some kind of an introduction they also through …

I once again sat down to watch an episode of Futurama with my oldest daughter last night. And, since it was the next one on the DVD, we ended up watching the season 1 episode entitled “Mars University.”
This one was an OK episode but not an overly great one. …

I’ve heard nothing but good things about this series, and I finally got a chance to check it out. As is the case with most television pilots, this one is pretty basic and not all that impressive. I was impressed by the theme song, however. That …

Stargate SG-1: It’s Good to be King is the show that I consider to be the last real team show of SG-1. It’s truly the last time we get to see SG-1 off-world, together, including Jack. It’s a regular-type mission that ends well and that has all …

I remember watching Jennifer Aniston on Ellen and it was really cool. Jen is very humble and natural and she has this great hair, even years before. I think it was a long-time episode come to think of it now, because at that time she was still married to …

Highway Patrol: Hot Dust, a third season episode from 1957, was quite interesting to watch. It concerned a young man named Harry Wells. He accidentally spills a container of radioactive material and then he panics. While he picks up the canister and places it in a …

Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer aren’t the most straight laced of comics, and they’re certainly not the kind of performers who’ll appeal to everybody. However, with their sitcom “Catterick”, the offbeat pair manage to deliver something surprisingly…well traditional wouldn’t be the right word to use, but they don’t do …

Synopsis: Homer appears on Kent Brockman’s show Smartline and, because he causes the newscaster to swear, ultimately costs him his job.
What I like about this episode: I think the best part for me at least was the way the episode spoofs the fact people get way too easily offended …

Grey’s Anatmony with Ellen Pompeo is a must watch show. I have to be in front of my television every Thursday night at exactly 8p.m. for Grey’s Anatomy. I must admit that I am addicted to watching the staff at Seattle Grace go through their drama in the operating …

CHiPs: Rally ‘Round the Bank has one element I’ve actually remembered for years, going back to when the episode first aired on February 3, 1979. In the episode, Frank Poncherello’s mother shows up unexpectedly for a visit. This creates some light humor at the beginning as Ponch …

Blacke’s Magic: The Revenge of the Esperanza opens a bit differently for this hour-long drama. It seems Alex Blacke’s dad, Leonard, has been charging up a storm on the credit cards and isn’t where he was supposed to be, so Alex goes after him and gets involved with …

I’ve become a big fan of ESPN’s more informal programs. I already talked about Sportsnation, but the other one that I’ve really been digging lately is Around the Horn. Like any sports show, they talk about the major sports stories. Like First Take, the format is …

Homer wears a pink shirt to work. This catches the eye of Mr.Burns and he interrogates Homer for this breach of conduct, since only white shirts were allowed at work. Homer is given a form to fill out, which would determine how crazy he is. Homer gives Bart to …

Tonight was the first time I’ve seen the Simpsons episode Dangerous Curves and I have to say it was one of the more interesting episodes I’ve seen.
Basically, this episode gave us some insight into Homer and Marge’s past; both before she became pregnant and they got married and a …

Well, that was a somewhat interesting Project Runway episode last night; What a Woman Wants.
The designers are always asked to make outfits for celebrities and various other people and rely on their models to sell their designs. So, it was an interesting twist last night when their models suddenly …

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 closing ceremonies for the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics were a mixed bag of hits and misses.
First of all, I just loved the spoof the Canadians did about the cauldron faux pas from the opening ceremonies. Bringing back the athlete who didn’t get to light the torch was …

I enjoy every episode of House not because of the medical part of the show but because of all the others. Now, don’t get me wrong, I enjoy the medical part of the show, but there is nothing truly extraordinary about that. It is the characters that make the …

I have to admit I’ve never been the biggest Idol fan, generally only watching the early auditions to hear the interesting people that come out. This year, though, I’ve been watching it all the way through. Certainly an interesting year.
The show is good. I can’t compare …

Survivor Nicaragua: Glitter in Their Eyes was full of fire as events unfolded. There were also a lot of critical moves and, of course, a blind side. That’s what this TV Show is about more often than not, the surprise back stabbing. I’m pretty tired of …

In the Season 2 finale, Dr. Monti schedules separate sessions with Feldman/Susie and Haim to show them the taped video of the fight outside of Haim’s house in order to hear and study their reactions. All three of them feel bad about it, of course, but don’t seem to …

Futurama is one of those poor shows that never really got its chance. The show was added to the Sunday night lineup on FOX, as part of its all cartoon night. It was just different enough that fans of The Simpsons and King Of The Hill could never quite …

The Simpsons family go to an amusement park, especially for very young kids like Maggie. Everyone except Marge and Maggie are thrilled. They do not find anything interesting there except for a petting zoo. Lisa is very fascinated by a small lamb. She is so impressed by that lamb, …

Looking for a great mystery show to keep you entertained. Look no further, Case Closed in my opinion is the best mystery show ever. Case Closed is an amimated Japanese mystery show (availible in english). Don’t click the back button just because it is animated. Case Closed follows the …

Stargate SG-1: The Tok’ra Part 2 concludes the story where the Tau’ri are introduced to new allies, the Tok’ra.
The most dramatic moment comes when Sam’s dying father actually becomes a Tok’ra, allowing a symbiote to join with him. We first met Jacob in the Secrets episode and that’s …

The Andy Griffith Show: The New Housekeeper is the delightful first episode of this landmark TV series. This one deals with the arrival of Beatrice Taylor to take care of Andy Taylor and his son, Opie. Some of my thoughts on this episode follow:
–The opening scene is …

The Dean Martin Comedy Hour put game show host Monty Hall on the hot seat for this edition of the series that dealt with roasting noted celebrities. Hall is best known for Let’s Make a Deal, though he’s done some acting and a few other game shows in …

Stargate SG-1: Evolution Part 2 didn’t give Jack and Daniel fans what they wanted at the beginning. In reality, it gave us a nauseating soap opera scene that was completely out of character for Jack O’Neill. In the history of the show, when someone has needed help, …

Watching The Next Food Network Star finale tonight was interesting, and I should have known better than to have fallen for their slick editing job. I’ll explain what I mean about that shortly.
The three finalists were Herb, Aartie, and Tom. I like all three, but my clear …

The Twilight Zone: The New Exhibit is a creepy show from 1963. It’s about a rather docile man who works for a wax museum. He becomes anxious when the museum closes and his most prized wax figures are in danger of being destroyed. Ultimately, the owner …

The Event: To Keep Us Safe is the second episode of this ‘don’t blink or you’ll miss something’ drama from NBC. The show stars Jason Ritter as Sean Walker, Laura Innes as Sophia Maguire, Sarah Roemer as Leila Buchanan, Blair Underwood as President Elias Martinez, Ian Anthony Dale …

M*A*S*H: Mail Call Again is an interesting episode dealing with the most recent mail call for the 4077th. The big news is that Major Frank Burns (Larry Linville) gets a letter from his wife saying that she wants a divorce. It seems she’s been told about Frank’s …

Marge feels Homer does not spend much time with Bart, and hence does not know much about his son. Bart does not seem to mind this, and neither does Homer. However one test Marge forces Homer to take. After he does take, the results are probably bad, so that …

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 …

John McGiver guest stars in this 1965 hour of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea called The X Factor. His character is Alexander Corby. I like McGiver, though oftentimes, his roles drive me nuts. He’s a solid actor, though, and makes just about anything worth …

For me, Chase: Paranoia was pretty intense, though that wasn’t necessarily a positive. In some ways, this episode felt like a rerun, not of this new series, of course, but of other shows and movies I’ve seen. That doesn’t mean it was not an enjoyable watch; it …

Cupcake Wars: Ace of Cakes 100th Episode Celebration was geared towards the running pleasing the owner and star of the Food Network’s “Ace of Cakes” series. His name is Duff and he hates cupcakes, but here he was, eating and judging four contestants, the winner of which would …

The Trap, the 14th outing of Highway Patrol’s final season on the air, focused around Ted Wilson, convicted criminal. The police use him as bait to get the rest of the group. Crime Boss Wilson is being transported to the state prison, and even though it smells …

The ninth episode of the second season of the new Mission: Impossible was called Banshee. I loved the reincarnation of this series. With Peter Graves on board once again as Jim Phelps, it had quality. I also loved the original series star Greg Morris had his …

I have to say I have become addicted to the Gilmore Girls. I’ve been watching this TV show since the first episode and from the very first time I saw it I couldn’t wait to see the next one.
Gilmore Girls is such a relief when we consider teen TV. …

This was not the Highlander we all know and love. The Duncan in this movie was dark and brooding and unsure of himself. The movie was choppy-it didn’t have a good flow. There wasn’t much information about the characters and how they all came together. It didn’t …

Highway Patrol’s 18th show from its third year was a little different, and I liked that quite a bit. As the name might indicate, The Seventh Green, which aired back in February 1958, opened with Chief of Police Dan Mathews (Broderick Crawford) playing a round of golf with …

The Good Wife is television drama series. It is based on the scandal that Governor Spitzer went through. The main character is a woman who discovers her politician husband is cheating on her with prostitutes and is involved in bribery and corruption. He is sent to …

The seventh season of Stargate SG-1 finds viewers delighting in the return of Michael Shanks to the fold as Doctor Daniel Jackson. In fact, his signing and that of Richard Dean Anderson’s came on the same day. The return gave Shanks increased billing. While he was …

I was fairly surprised by this episode of CSI because it was a lot better than I thought it would be. The episode itself mainly takes place in the fantasy world and some of the favorite characters barely appear at all. Hodges in the lab gathers up all the …

Hawaii Five-0: Ko’olauloa was a superb outing for this hit new series. I’m truly enjoying this re-think of the old Jack Lord series, and I have few problems or issues thus far with the direction of the show.
This episode is a personal one for the character of Kono, …

The fourth season of Stargate SG-1 comes to an end with the cliffhanger episode entitled Exodus. There is a lot right about Exodus, and it makes for a thrilling view, even if not every bit of it thrills me personally.
The less than thrilling part for me is the …
