The Twilight Zone: Two TV Show
The third season of The Twilight Zone is a two-person show. For some reason, Rod Serling liked these introspective shows for the season premiers, and I’m not sure why. Season one focused on Earl Holliman’s character being in a town by himself, and season two had Robert …
What Not to Wear TV Show (British Version)
As a big fan of the show What Not to Wear (the U.S. version), I couldn’t help but check out the British version when I saw it listed in my TV listings. I have to say, I was disappointed. Perhaps it is cultural. I enjoyed listening …
The Girls Next Door show
How can you not love The Girls Next Door, a show based on the girls and Hugh Hefner. I love this show. It’s mind candy. My fiance thinks it’s funny that I’m female and I have to watch the show every time it’s on. I even have a season …
Oz show
One of the things which I was used to hearing people talking about in my art class in high school when I was about 14 years old was the television show, Oz. At that time, since my parent didn’t pay for the movie channel package from our cable company …
Blacke’s Magic: It’s a Jungle Out There
Richard Hatch and Patrick Macnee were the big guest stars in Blacke’s Magic: It’s a Jungle Out There, a series about semi-retired magician, Alexander Blacke. As portrayed by Hal Linden of Barney Miller fame, Blacke charmingly assists local authorities and friends in need by solving crimes and …
Who Are You Wearing (TLC program)
I was rather surprised when I realized that TLC was releasing a show called “Who Are You Wearing.” I was even more surprised to see an old school mate hosting the show. Keisha Nash-Whitaker (wife of Oscar Award winner, Forest Whitaker) hosts a show in which …
Mr. Monk and Mrs. Monk
Today was the first time I had a chance to watch the entire Monk episode “Mr. Monk and Mrs. Monk” and it turned out to be very interesting.
This episode gives us a better glimpse of his deceased wife Trudy; or at least a little more information about her considering …
Desperate Housewives Episode: The Tornado
Desperate Housewives Episode: The Tornado is so scary and in fact, this is one of the best and most awesome episodes, which makes me shudder because out there, there might be real stuff like this happening and my heart is beating so fast and I almost cry. I really …
The Twilight Zone: Nightmare at 20,000 Feet TV Show
The Twilight Zone: Nightmare at 20,000 Feet is one of the classic episodes that people love to see. It’s an intriguing mystery that leaves you going ‘whoa’. The story surrounds Bob Wilson (William Shatner in his second Twilight Zone appearance), a man just recovered from a nervous …
Wagon Train: The Jess Macabee Story
Wagon Train: The Jess Macabee Story is pretty funny. The emphasis is on Robert Horton’s character of Flint McCullough who has gone ahead of the wagon train to try and find a food supply. He’d been in the area before, but for the first time, he find …
TV : Dead Like Me

The Virginian: Strangers at Sundown
The Virginian: Strangers at Sundown opens with senseless cruelty towards animals so I’m very leery of this episode from the start. Normally, I change the channel at this point, but I think it might have just been a passing plot device. Whatever the story involves, there’s a …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Quiet Night in Town Part 2 II TV Show
From season four, a rare two part episode of Have Gun - Will Travel concluded with this show, Quiet Night in Town Part II. The show didn’t have any kind of ’scenes from last week’, so hopefully, viewers remember the plot. It opens with Paladin lying on …
CSI Season 5 Episode 22- Weeping Willows
This is a great example of why the show is so amazing. That was fantastic episode and I enjoyed it very much. It really kept me on the edge and I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen. And because the story was so personal, you could …
Watch What Happens: Live
Watch What Happens: Live is new to the Bravo Channel in 2009 and personally, I think it needs to go away and be a memory. I just wasn’t impressed at all by what I saw. The only reason I tuned in was to see who the Top …

VH1’s I Love Money
Another reality show from VH1, it would seem that VH1, MTV, BET and quite a few other cable networks are all competeing to see who can broadcastthe most reality programs anually. If you ask me, the reality bit is played out and they are just fishing at the bottom …
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 …
Family Guy: Death is a Bitch
Well, I have to admit, when it comes to Family Guy episodes, the episode “Death is a Bitch” is pretty funny.

Two and a Half Men
Two and a Half Men is a family situation comedy that has been making viewers laugh since 2003. With its slightly off beat, but yet mostly normal, cast of characters who get great scripts, you almost wish they were your family. That is if you do not want …
Monk Season 3
The third season of Monk was a transitional period, and that’s why I had to rate it so low. Sharona was one of my favorite characters and in this season she ended up leaving the show. I heard that it was a contract dispute and some money problems, but …
Heroes TV series
This is the newest TV series that has rocked the whole nation. It’s actually about several people who have super power abilities and how their destinies are tied together. When NBC started advertising their new series, my husband and I were so excited. We love the unexplained, and this …

The X-Files Duane Barry Episode

The Office TV show
Some sitcoms get their humor from doing the unexpected. Some get their humor because they’re so true to life. The Office is actually both.
I absolutely love The Office, partly because it’s so realistic. I mean, I’ve really worked with people like this — well, almost like this, anyway. The …
The Office: Branch Wars
The Office is one of the more hit or miss shows on television in my opinion. It’s not even just from episode to episode. There will be four or five jokes in a single scene and only one or two will be funny, but those jokes can make me …

When a young woman calls police and tells them she has witnessed the murder of a navy man, they turn it over to NCIS. Seems she has no proof and there is no bodies or proof of a struggle in the apartment across the road.

Smallville Season 7 episode 13
This episode of Smallville brought on the reappearance of Pete Ross. When I first saw him standing there I was happy to see him remembering him from season two. Then five minutes into it I remembered how much I hated this character in the first place.
The core …
Shatner’s Raw Nerve: Judge Judy Sheindlin TV Show
For the past couple of years, actor William Shatner has had a very interesting half hour series called Shatner’s Raw Nerve. It’s a great concept, and it’s not a normal talk show. It really is a one on one chat between Shatner and his guest, which in …

Star Trek: Day of the Dove TV Show
I’m not a huge fan of Star Trek: Day of the Dove, which essentially pits two crews against each other, and all because of some third entity. Essentially, it’s the Enterprise crew verses the survivors of a Klingon one. Here are some of my thoughts on this …

Grey’s Anatomy
I know that this is one of the most popular shows on TV but I really don’t like it. Just yesterday I saw that there were some reruns of this show and I started thinking to myself: ‘Why don’t I like this show?’ So I started watching the episode …
Bamboo Blade
I love anime! Well, I love a lot of anime, usually the more action oriented variety. I love shows that are based around science fiction or fantasy. I love swords and sorcery, and I love blazing guns, things that are not realistic at all. Unless it’s purely comedy, with …
Bones: Harbingers in a Fountain
I didn’t get to watch the entire Bones season premiere last night because I was busy with a few other things at the time (thanks to my wife turning a simple cleaning project into a complicated redecoration of our living room). What I did see of it, however, did …
