I liked a few things about Kung Fu: The Legend Continues: Challenge, starring David Carradine as Kwai Chang Caine and Chris Potter as his son, Peter Caine, who is now a police detective. It’s the father and son relationship and the journey that evolves from the first to …

Stargate Atlantis: Remnants continues the exploits of the Atlantis team in the Pegasus Galaxy. In this 15th show of the farewell season, the opening scenes have my head spinning. There’s just way too much going on, all presented in very short segments. More time needed to …

Much as I don’t like Jaffa-centered stories, I’m also not fond of the Abydonian storylines on this series either. Stargate SG-1: Secrets, however, is a story that takes place in good part on Abydos. It’s been one Abydonian year to the day that Daniel left the planet …

Micheal C Hall makes this series plain and simple. No other man could have done the Character of Dexter so well. His versatile acting skills have seen him through on this one.
Dexter, a blood splatter pattern analyst working for the Miami metro Police department has a dark secret…he moonlights …

The Virginian opens its fourth season with a show called, The Brothers. The cast was actually a very strong one and that helped to make it more watchable. Still, it always amazes me how this show fragments its casts so much. I would think that they …

Last night was an episode of the Simpson’s that I’ve seen a couple of times and still think is somewhat funny; though not as funny as others.
“Pray Anything” has Homer discovering the power of prayer; where he thinks God is granting his every wish when it really is nothing …

The 7th Season of MASH seemed to focus a lot on the stuff the characters were missing while in Korea, ranging from them learning new medical techniques they weren’t aware of to them arranging a get-together of their families back home.
They also spend much of the season dealing with …

“Goodbye To All That” is a pretty cool continuation of the second season, much thanks to the new terminator baddie in this episode, a T-888 played by none other than Patrick Kilpatrick, making us feel like it’s the movie “Class of 1999″ all over again (for those of you …

Masquerade: Five Days gave Kirstie Alley her best chance to do some real acting in her character of Casey. She’s an intelligence agent working with Rod Taylor’s Lavender and Greg Evigan’s Danny. Up until this episode, her most challenging bits have been guiding bus tours and looking …

Imagine a world where every thing is black and white. A world where everything has rules that it can never defy. A lonely stark world, very much in contrast to our own world. This is the world where kings and queens still rule, even if the world beyond has …

This kids’ show is great for kids. WHile the heroine, Kim, is a cheerleader, she also gets good grades, is a good friend to her friends, and saves the world through her website.
The best part of the show might be her best friend and sidekick Ron’s pet naked mole …

Well, I’m almost through all the season 3 episodes of Ghost Hunters and have to say I really haven’t been too impressed with the so-called evidence they are collecting.
The one we watched last night, Ghostly House Guest, had some potential. There was a house that was supposedly being haunted by …

This is a brand new summer television show that just premiered last Sunday. It’s another show about vampires, however there are a lot of vampire shows out right now. So I am a bit concerned about the success of this show. I’m not too sure how well it’s going …

What I’ve always remembered about The Twilight Zone: Mirror Image is that it scared me to death as a kid. I found it to be one of the most frightening Twilight Zones. All grown up now, it still gives me a huge case of the creeps. …

Just like always the crime scene investigation team is struggling to solve the murder cases while fighting the melancholy and the pain of their personal life. It was a really great episode, only the very last few minutes of the show were a little bit over the top, or …

Mad Hungry with Lucinda Scala Quinn Rustic Italian Recipes began with the approachable cook talking about gay pesto, as in fun food and good pesto and pasta to eat. I so often learn from Quinn, and that continues to fascinate me. This first segment was focused on …

Allison has another dream (she has them a lot, well I guess that’s the whole point of the show, isn’t it). In this dream she hears and sees the song “I Will Survive” playing loudly and she is dancing to it as if she was in a video clip. …

Mad Hungry with Lucinda Scala Quinn from the 16th of September, 2010 focused on Breakfast Favorites, using the perspective of how easy it can be to make homemade products. The thing is, it wasn’t easy for me and this was probably my least favorite episode of the opening …

Geena Davis was born to play the US President in ‘Commander in Chief’. Apart from maybe Thelma in ‘Thelma and Louise’, this is the best role she’s ever had. I’m not normally a fan of political programmes, but this one is accessible and understandable for the viewer, …

Season three episode 82 is interesting since Ginger actually plays two roles, herself as Ginger and also Eva Grubb. Eva travels to the island by boat to leave men and society behind due to her depression from men rejecting her. Her emotional state leads her through this whole show. I …

One of the interesting things about the old Mork & Mindy series is how it managed to look at normal everyday life and turn it into satire. The episode “Mork’s Greatest Hit” is a great example of this.
In our culture, we admire those who will use violence if it …

Episode 7 is calmer than the previous episode which is surprising considering that the fight that is brewing will be much greater than any other action scene seen so far in the show. The tension is clear when the episode starts as Kakashi tries to get information out of …

Politics started out well but after the first ten minutes I was bored while watching it.
Bored watching an episode of Stargate SG1? How can that be? Well, this episode was what they call a “clip show.” Having seen every episode of Stargate SG1 so far plus …

Earlier this year, I was gifted with The Ray Bradbury Theater DVD set, which contains all 65 episodes of the science fiction series on 5 DVDs. I’ve just finished reviewing the episodes, so now it’s time to take a look at the DVD set itself.
There are plenty of highs …

I really wasn’t sure what to think of the new show Ghost Hunters Academy. I like Ghost Hunters, but you can have too much of a good thing. I did give it a chance last night though and did watch the first episode; Web of Deceit.
It was an OK …

“Race to the Finish” is an episode from the first season of the “Inspector Gadget” television series. It’s one of the few episodes of the series to heavily focus on the Gadgetmobile as well as feature Inspector Gadget and Dr. Claw so closely encountering each other for an extended …

This was the latest episode of CSI: las vegas. I enjoyed it for the most part. Here lately they haven’t been having very many good episodes at all. There have only been a couple of good episodes ever since Grissom left. This one and “miscarriage of justice” was good …

The second episode of Orchestra United was a little slow for me somehow. I can’t really put my finger on it, but there was something that didn’t keep me as hooked as I had been. Still, the hour long episode from the United Kingdom had some solid …

A Kiss Saves the Day was the second lap on the race around the globe in the Emmy award winning reality series, The Amazing Race. The teams ended up in Africa where people are everywhere; it’s almost like India. They all had a reaction to the abundance …

As Due South winds down, it gave us a storyline twist that really proved to be quite interesting. Due South: Hunting Season guest stars Jessica Steen as Constable Maggie MacKenzie who comes to Chicago for much the same reason as Constable Benton Fraser had, to track down a …

Proving Ground is a nice little episode of the fifth season of Stargate SG-1. It’s yet another show focused on Earth (one must wonder how much economics played in all of these Earth-bound episodes) where four potential SGC candidates are put through a rigorous training exercise, the four …

In my first review for season three of Diagnosis Murder, I included the good and the bad of the season three changes. There were a couple of things I didn’t mention then that I saved for now, as I review the season three ender, Left-Handed Murder.
First, there were …

This guy has a stomach of steel if you ask me. He travels the world over and searches for the strangest and most bizarre foods in the world to bring to us the viewers. Majority times he feasts on these exotic delicacies just to show that even though it …

Sometimes, when you have a television series that has a serial plot-line, you end up with a somewhat weak episode that is primarily meant to introduce new plot points for the season.
The Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode, “Homecoming” fits this description.
The whole Buffy versus Cordelia for homecoming queen thing …

New this year is Sherdona, a worker in the parking authority office. …

Well, at least the second episode in the Fairly Oddparents series isn’t too bad. This one, entitled “Power Mad” lets us meet Timmy’s best friends, Chester and AJ in a way that is kind of interesting.
Since he has fairies who can grant him just about everything, Timmy keeps wishing …

Elliott Gould and Mimi Kuzyk star in an intriguing half hour episode of The Ray Bradbury Theater called The Happiness Machine. From July 1992, these two actors portray the Affmanns. As Leo, Gould wakes up one day and suddenly sees joy out in the world. He …

My wife decided she would rather talk to her pretend friends on Facebook last night than spend any time with me so I turned on another re-run of the show Psych that I had not seen before. This time around, it was the season 3 episode Disco Didn’t Die, …

I had been aware of this attempt at a live action adaptation of the lesser known comic that centers around a team of all female superheroes. I finally decided that it was time to finally check it out. Considering that the show only lasted a season, my …

Felix the Cat in Neptune Nonsense is another animated short cartoon that was produced and released in the mid thirties. These were a bit more advanced than those cartoons of Felix in the 1920’s, which was natural, of course. I don’t recall seeing these before, though while …

MacGyver: Countdown is the fourteenth episode of season one. It’s a very watchable show which has the action contained and rather subdued aboard a cruise ship. The sedentary action is watching Mac and his buddy try to disarm three bombs that have been set on the passenger …

Well, I didn’t know for sure if I would like the Monk episode Mr. Monk and the Birds and the Bees when I saw it this past weekend. But, I have to admit, it was much better than expected.
The case itself was somewhat interesting. There is a murder and …

As I wrote my review of the episode Road Trip I really feel the need to write my review of episode ‘A chill day in’. These two episodes are a long way from the episodes we got used to watching in these last two seasons which are sometimes good but …
