The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast: Angie Dickinson TV Show
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast roasted the Woman of the Hour, Angie Dickinson, in this show taped in front of an audience in Las Vegas. Dickinson had one of the better dais groupings of the show. She looked beautiful, of course. She truly has been a …
MacGyver: Three for the Road
MacGyver: Three for the Road is one of my all time favorite episodes of MacGyver and it comes as the tenth episode of the second season. Featured in this show is the wonderful Edward Mulhare whose past roles included starring parts in The Ghost and Mrs. Muir and …
Masquerade: Five Days
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 …
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers: Promised Land TV show
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers: Promised Land is the first episode of this series that aired in 1983. It’s funny what stands out to a person, but one of the things I am amused by as I rewatch this program is how star Richard Dean Anderson (he plays …
Stargate SG-1: Legacy
Stargate SG-1: Legacy was a standout show for actor Michael Shanks, who played Daniel Jackson. In it, Shanks portrayed what looked like Daniel losing his mind. He was eventually taken from Stargate Command to a padded room at the Academy hospital. It was amazing to watch …
Judicial Indiscretion movie
Judicial Indiscretion is a very nice suspenseful made-for-TV movie that I enjoy watching quite a bit. It was made for the Lifetime channel. The movie opens innocently enough with Judge Monica Barrett being told by a friend that her name as been thrown in the hat as …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Strange Vendetta
I haven’t mentioned yet how the opening ‘theme’ as it is for Have Gun - Will Travel changes with each episode. I don’t recall if that continues throughout the series run, but thus far, star Richard Boone draws his weapon, aims the gun at us, the viewers, and …
Lost TV programme
I hate this programme! It frustrates the hell out of me and I am soo glad I can rant about it on this website! It just doesnt make sense. Polar bears??? People living underground and everyone having past lives that are somehow interlinked.
I switch over every time it comes …
The Dean Martin Comedy Hour: Truman Capote TV Show
Odd becomes odder when Truman Capote was the subject of a celebrity roast on The Dean Martin Comedy Hour. Capote was eccentric, that’s for sure, so he was easy to make fun of.
Ted Knight got a few laughs early on, and then it was Audrey Meadows’ turn. …
Faerie Tale Theater: Goldilocks and the Three Bears
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 …
The Jetsons
The Jetsons is a great TV show that started in the 60s. But later there were more shows made in the 80s and the re runs were shown for decades. This is a great show, and I really love how they thought the 21th Century was going to be. The …
CHiPs: High Explosive
In my mind, CHiPs: High Explosive is a bit controversial. I’m sure to many it could be a sensitive area. It begins when a teenager uses a pellet gun and causes a traffic accident that leaves one woman seriously injured.
Ike Eisenmann guest stars as Barry, the boy …
The Winds of War: Making The Winds of War featurette
Dan Curtis is center stage for The Winds of War: Making The Winds of War featurette which takes interested viewers through the process of what it was like to make the outstanding television mini-series, The Winds of War and its follow up, War and Remembrance.

The Wayans Bros TV show
The Wayans Bros is one of the best shows I have seen in a long time! I just love this show! Marlon and Shawn are The Wayans Bros. Marlon is so funny because he makes the funniest faces and he also has a funny voice. The jokes on The Wayans …
Are you Smarter than a 5th grader?
I think that Are you Smarter than a 5th grader is a pretty cool TV show. The idea is original and has never been done before. So this makes the show really cool in my eyes. I mean it’s funny to see 5th grader’s be able ot answer questions that …
The Bad Girls Club Season Four
I have been watching reality television every since the real world Hawaii came out. I have since then been a fan of reality television. Now a days the whole television scene and entertainment is surrounded by reality shows. I was sitting up at home one day skipping through the …
Hellcats: The Prisoner’s Song TV Show
Alyson Michalka stars as Marti Perkins in Hellcats: The Prisoner’s Song. This hour was full of drama and excitement, especially when Marti votes against her teammate and roommate, Savannah, when Savannah ends up in a face off with Alice over the video presentation style. Marti also has …
House on Fox
I absolutely love House M.D. on Fox. House is one of the best shows on TV. I have watched every episode from the beginning and I have to say this show never gets old.
One of my favorite parts of the show is Dr. Gregory House’s attitude. He just …
NCIS
NCIS is a series about crime scene investigators working for the Navy. Unlike many of the other similar shows, the comic element is quite strong in NCIS.
The good: I really like the comedy. The setting is far-fetched, there is for example only one person in the lab and …
Heroes season
A drama called Heros season is just like x-man. Normal people becomes a hero by finding out their ability. Even one guy who draws future turns his eyes into white to use his ability just like x-man’s snow woman. A girl who has healing power like a x-man’s main …

Summer Heights High Series 1 Episode 1
The humour in Summer Heights High is right up my street but before I actually checked it out, I thought it was just another shallow teen soap opera. This is a great comedy show actually in the style of a documentary, featuring three characters at the Australian school …
Las Vegas Season 3 episode 2 Fake Money and Run
I started watching this show because my friend who works at a casino recommended it too. This show is about Las Vegas casino Montecito.

The Twilight Zone: The Fugitive TV Show
While there is drama in The Twilight Zone: The Fugitive, it’s the fun element that I enjoy. This is a playful, endearing, happy ever after type of story, and that’s just my style.
J. Pat O’Malley is absolutely perfect casting for Old Ben, an elderly gentlemen who loves to …
The Twilight Zone: Escape Clause TV Show

Wagon Train: The Cassie Vance Story
I like The Cassie Vance Story, one of the ninety minute color episodes that aired during the seventh season of the hit western, Wagon Train. Laraine Day was the guest star, and she was so wonderful to watch. She’s an accomplished actress that brought depth to the …

From April 1963, The Andy Griffith Show: Barney’s First Car is exactly what this show title says. Deputy Barney Fife (Don Knotts) decides to buy a car so he can be more independent. He plans to spend a whopping three hundred dollars for a used car. …
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Who Watches the Watchers?
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Who Watches the Watchers is an episode that might seem somewhat offending and close-minded to some, while others will applaud its stance and attitude on the delicate subject of religion. In this episode, Captain Picard remarks that a culture that believes in Gods …
Beast Wars - Changing of the Guard
Beast Wars - Changing of the Guard is an excellent episode - in part, because it is an episode of the series that does something quite different and it does so very well. This is one of two episodes in the series that takes place, partly, underwater. Rattrap is …
Desperate Housewives Season 6 Episode 16
This episode of Desperate Housewives was a good one. There were five story lines going on. Gabby was missing single when staying with the gay couple on the block, Lynette’s daughter was feeling left out, Mrs McClusky might have cancer, bree has a new guy working for …
The Dick Van Dyke Show Revisited (2004 Television Special)
The Dick Van Dyke Show Revisited is a 2004 television special. As a fan of the 1960s classic, I remain somewhat undecided about how I feel about this reunion special despite having watched it three or four times. In some respects, this reunion special fails to feel like an …

Hard Knocks: Training Camp with the Kansas City Chiefs
When I first heard that HBO was running a show on NFL training camp, I thought it would just be another boring and poorly portrayed image of the NFL. Was I wrong, this documentary by NFL films has to be one of the best I’ve seen. It was not …
Tree House of Horror XVII
I used to love watching the Simpsons but no longer watch too many of the newer episodes. Last night’s latest edition, Tree House of Horror XVII reminded me of why.
In it’s annual Halloween special, the Simpsons spoofed War of the Worlds, Golem and the Blob. I saw a lot …
Friends Episode: Rachel Moving Out
Friends Episode: Rachel Moving Out is one of the better episodes that you can see Monica’s really ‘controlling’ and ‘possessive’ manner of persona. The episode is when Rachel is going to move out and not being her room-mate anymore. And knowing Rachel, she is very laid-back about it …
The Six Napoleons
I am reviewing The Six Napoleons, a Sherlock Holmes episode from the boxed set, The Adventure of Sherlock HOlmes, which was produced in 1984 by Granada television. This episode finds Sherlock Holmes assisting Lestrade in a most bizarre mystery. Some mad man keeps destroying the last remaining six Napoleon …
Samsung PN50C430 50 inch 720p Plasma HDTV
In the company that I work for right now, there was a recent drawing for all the employees in a celebration-ceremony. Expecting that my luck, like always, wouldn’t get me drawn; I went for the free food and drinks. So when I heard my name that I had selected …
Phineas and Ferb: Raging Bully
Well, that was a cute episode of the cartoon Phineas and Ferb. I wasn’t expecting much from an episode entitled Raging Bully and about thumb wrestling but it ended up being much better than I expected. In fact, I think it was downright entertaining.
Basically, in this episode, Phineas finds …
The Susan Talk Show
The first time I saw local talk show Susanwas a few years ago when it was advertising on TvJ. I can’t remember exatly what that episode was about either, but I know that it was not the theme of the episode that interested me as much as the thought …

House TV show
I never tire of this television show, season after season. In my opinion, it is the best show on television, and a welcome relief from the deluge of mindless reality television shows which assume the viewers have low intelligence and a high tolerance for monotony. Hugh Laurie’s portrayal of …
About A Girl
About A Girl is a television series which is funnily enough about a girl. The girl in question is Amy, now Amy has gone off to college and had a dorm sorted out but it didn’t work out so she had to move into off campus accomodation. …
Smallville Season 8 Episode 6
This episode was a little boring in my opinion. It was all to do with developing the story line for the entrance of Doomsday. A killer is going nuts all over Metropolis and Clark and Chloe are trying to find it. They go looking for the …
The Twilight Zone: The Last Night of a Jockey TV Show
The fact that it’s the fifth season really shows for The Twilight Zone. There are several shows in a row that I just don’t like, and The Last Night of a Jockey from October 1963 is another one of them. The stories had some good actors, but …
Hell Date (BET TV show)
I watched this show a little while ago and was kind of interested. At first I didn’t realize that it was actually a prank show. The daters (usually the women) are actually actresses hired by BET to make the dates unbearable. The dates can take all …
Junior Apprentice Episode 5 TV Show
Junior Apprentice Episode 5 had some added fun in it when the Instinct and Revolution teams were awakened and told they would be flying to Amsterdam in the Netherlands for the new challenge. These teams are made up of 16 and 17 year old kids who all think …
