M*A*S*H* is one of my husband’s favorite TV shows, he is gathering a DVD collection of all the episodes. I often watch MASH with him, and although I don’t like Captain Pierce (hate womanizers), overall, I think it is quite a decent show. Most characters are well developed, and …

Tales of the Gold Monkey: Trunk from the Past is an intriguing entry for this adventure series. It brings in Egyptian lore and archaeology, so that’s a plus for me. Though the overall tale is interesting, I’m really tiring fast of Sarah’s screeching. For a spy, …

Breakthrough with Tony Robbins Episode 5 begins with Tony Robbins helping out John Rodriguez, a man who lost his wife after she was killed in a random shooting and John became depressed and homeless.
I liked this episode a lot because John learned that he can do things, even if …

Burn Notice has been on the USA Channel for a couple of years now, but I’d never really given it a big chance until Michael Shanks guest starred on a show last year. This season, Michael returned for three appearances. The first was just a small bit …

I finally got to see the season 1 finale of Buffy the Vampire Slayer “Prophecy Girl” and have to admit it made up for the numerous crappy episodes of the series in that first season.
The episode has Buffy finally facing the Master; more importantly it has her doing so …

Cowboy Bebop Episode 14 has the crew going after a man known as Chessmaster Hex after a series of Hyperspace Gate Tollbooth robberies that are connected to him.
This episode was really good, it was quirky and fun and interesting. It wasn’t really about the action as much as …

Last night, I was flipping through channels on TV and came across a Star Trek the Next Generation episode that is among my favorites from the series (at least of the ones I have actually watched); Hollow Pursuits.
I like this episode for a couple of reasons. First, it has …

Laramie: Hour After Dawn from season one presents some real inner conflict, especially for Slim Sherman, the rancher played by John Smith. As often happens, Slim has to sub for the sheriff when the man is injured and insists on Slim doing the job. Ultimately, the hanging …

One of the more famous Seinfeld episodes is the one entitled “The Soup Nazi.” And, to be honest, with you, it’s definitely memorable but I’m not sure if it is my favorite episode of the series.
This one focuses on a soup kitchen that everyone on the show frequents. It …

After years upon years of watching The Twilight Zone, there are maybe two or three that don’t immediately pop out at me where I don’t instantly know the story when it comes on TV. An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge from season five is one of those. …

The Maalaala Mo Kaya Episode of Cherry Pie and Sarah Geronimo, I think is one of Sarah’s best performances in her acting career. The story was about a family of 3, her mother her and his older brother who has to always move home because they are not able …

I’m conflicted about Seven Brides for Seven Brothers: Winter Roses. While it’s a wonderful story of love and has superb drama and angst, I just regret the choice made to end the episode. I wasn’t surprised back in 1983 when I first saw it, but I felt …

This episode has quite a few ups and downs. Gilligan goes around all depressed through most of the episode. Actually its agonizing to watch him obsess what he thinks is his heritage, related to head hunters. And he deduces this solely on his resemblance to the likeness of the …

I love Drake and Josh! Those two guys crack me up every time. I watched like every single episode of their show. Drake and Josh changed a lot since their first episode. Drake was so much cutter when he was younger. Now he is even hotter. I love that …

The problem with M*A*S*H: White Gold is that it’s too much of a vehicle for guest star Edward Winter who returns as Colonel Flagg, the rather odd CIA agent who often ends up at the 4077th unit. I was really surprised by how much time Winter got, even …

This is an alright show overall. I will watch it when there is absolutely nothing else on television. I have only seen a few episodes of the show. There are a couple parts of the show that are funny but most of it is kind of stupid. Some parts …

Again, my problem with the Shout Factory DVD release of this show, and others that they’ve done, is how inconvenient the layout is. Since this is only a four-disk set, it’s not as bad as others, but what they tend to do is put two DVDs on the …

Billy Blackburn’s Treasure Chest Rare Home Movies and Special Memories Part 2 was released as part of the second season DVD release. It continued a feature begun on the first season set that looked at the home movies Billy Blackburn took. While Blackburn’s name may not be …

So as it turns out, Hector is a dog who always gets into trouble. …

Sea Hunt: Point of No Return , the opening show of the series’ fourth and final TV season which aired in January 1961, was a bit different. That was mostly a good thing. However, it was also a little confusing in a couple of spots.
The reason the …

This episode breaks the format a little in that we don’t get one narrative, rather a series of small stories that focuses on each of the main characters.
We get one for Katara and Toph that has them bonding after Katara invites her for a girls day out. The …

I have to say up front that when I see the name of this Max Headroom episode — Whackets — my mind goes to a classic musical called How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. In that movie, they are talking about widgets, and to me, whackets …

One of the main focuses of this end of the two parter is medical resident Jack Stewart coming up close with his past. He …

Have Gun - Will Travel: Crowbait wasn’t all that exciting to watch. Richard Boone stars as Paladin in this half-hour western, and in going back and watching these black and white shows again, I’ve learned that some are amazingly forward thinking and fun to watch and others are …

If there is a great newsbreaking story that catches everyones curiosity such as the OJ latest arrest you can be certain that no matter what happens Larry King will have an influential guest to the news story that very same night. For some reason perhaps its Larry’s King …

Voyagers!: The Trial of Phineas Bogg is probably the one episode I’ve remember for decades, other than the pilot. It’s basically a clips show, a budget costing maneuver by networks and producers to keep costs down on a show because most of the action is done with clips …

I finally got around to watching the 5th season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer today; starting with the first episode, Buffy versus Dracula.
It wasn’t a bad episode but not quite as good as I expected it to be.
As you can guess by the title, Buffy gets to face the …

This television show is a comedy from the early 90s featuring will smith. I really loved watching this show back in the day, and now I watch it on nick at night. The show was one of the first that featured a black family on television. I just to …

Here are …

The TARDIS picks up another crew member as the Doctor decides to bring Rory along so that he can spend time with Amy. I imagine it is also to keep Amy from putting the moves on him. More than that, he probably doesn’t want to be the …

The Amazing Race is a reality show where teams of two people race against other teams of two all over the world, doing very unique tasks along the way.
The show usually starts with all of the teams in an American city where they are sent off to their provided …

As far as the Simpsons Treehouse of Horrors episodes go, most of the later ones are kind of dumb and don’t really have a whole lot to do with Halloween. One of the few exceptions to this is Treehouse of Horrors XIII.
The first skit on the show, where Homer …

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 …

Can a number bring thrill and suspense to television viewers? I’d like to think so and 24 has done a very good job at that.

House is made to work in the clinic because he doesn’t have any patients and this time, unlike the others he isn’t able to get out of it. He just doesn’t care about people who have eaten magnets or have an STD because they are stupid.
Then as he is …

One of the funniest shows on television is “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”. I caught the show in its first season and I really didn’t pay it much attention. Finally when I got with my current boyfriend I spent more time watching it because it is one of …
