The That 70s Show Episode “The Drive-in” is one of the funnier episodes this show ever made. And, the funny part about that is it really has nothing to do with a drive-in.
OK, I should re-phrase that, you do have a whole storyline where Eric, Kelso, Jackie and Donna …

The Lazarus Man: The Catamount is the tenth episode of the series which aired in 1996. Here’s what I still don’t get about the main character. Lazarus has flashbacks which we see. I assume we’re seeing what he remembers. Well, I’ve heard ‘Presidential guard’ and …

The Ray Bradbury Theater: Let’s Play Poison aired in February 1992, and to be honest, I thought it was going to be a lot better than it proved to be. In fact, what began with some potential for real intrigue and storytelling ended up being a huge disappointment …

The Big Bang Theory is an amazing show. I’ll admit it took me a little while to get into it. All the nerd speak was a bit off putting at first and the show was finding its feet. But once it did find it’s feet - …

In the first case the groom is found dead on his wedding day. He is all dressed up and ready and there is no blood at the scene. But underneath his …

“Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow” was an epic addition to the Trinity Blood saga. This is really the only fluff episode I have ever seen on Trinity Blood and a very fitting fifth episode to boot. Father Abel Nightroad and Sister Esther Blanchet arrive in Rome to find Sister Esther …

In the day of Columbo on television, there were two British Patricks who were quite respected and who did a lot of TV work. They were frequently seen, and both did appearances on Columbo. The problem is that one was entertaining and the other turned me off …

I didn’t care much for this episode. It was an old case for an old agent who had retired. The retired agent was not very friendly with the team so it made the whole case extremely strained. Naturally in the end he caught the bad guy and probably went …

Diagnosis Murder: The Plague had some good moments in it. I love shows with angst, but there really wasn’t as much of that as you might think from the title. In fact, in one sense you could say that The Plague was educational, informing the public of …

Consider The Ray Bradbury Theater: On the Orient, North, Bradbury’s version of Murder on the Orient Express, which is even referenced at the very beginning of the episode. It features Magali Noel as Minerva Halliday who offers to help someone described only as ‘the ghastly passenger’. Frankly, …

Prison Break Season 3 Episode 2- Fire/Water
The story continues as Michael tries to figure his way out in the Sona prison. Lincoln’s character is now taking a more active role in the series. I guess that makes sense, since he is on the outside. It’s too bad they made …

A lot of people love the rain, but would they love it if it rained every day, and not just a drizzle, but a real downpour? That’s a question to ponder as you watch the cable TV show, The Ray Bradbury Theater, and it’s sixth season episode, The …

Sponge Bob is a great show. I think this show is very funny and creative. But I also think that who ever writes the show is on some serious drugs. I mean the stuff they come up with on this show is really crazy, and very funny. It really out …

“The One And Future Thing: Weird Western Tales” wins the award for the longest title of any episode of Justice League Unlimited Season One. This 12th epsiode of that season features a time traveling adventure with Batman, Wonder Woman and Green Lantern chasing after the inventor of a …

I only got to watch maybe 3/4ths of the show Bones last night (I missed the first few minutes of it) but, from what I saw, it wasn’t too bad of an episode.
Booth and Brennan investigated a double homicide that first appeared to be one person burned to death …

Last night, I watched the made for television movie, The Haunting of Sarah. It was truly an excellent movie, that made one think……..and think.
The story begins with two sisters, twins, being born. Then, the tale whips along to 25 yrs. later, showing how one twin sister has become an …

There are spoilers so be aware of that before you read the review.
When the episode opened and we saw a chubby man talking to a clown doll, my first thought was “Is that Toyman?”. The answer is affirmative. Like Dan Turpin did a few weeks back, the …

Discovery Channel is one of my favorite TV channels of all time. I consider every moment of watching this channel as the greatest way to learn not only for me but for the rest of my family.
I have been finding all …

Fox Soccer channel used to be Fox World Channel, but they switched their name a while back and now concenrate heavily on soccer competitions. The main attraction is English Premier League - between FSC channel and Setanta Sports channel you can see almost all the Premier League games every …

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 …

The first episode of the second season of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea was a show entitled Jonah and the Whale, and it brings with it some big changes as well as some subtle alterations. First, the show began airing in color. What a difference …

I’m home sick today (no, really, I’m not playing hooky or anything like that) and am watching Beverly Hillbillies re-runs on TV. One of them, “Folk Singer” is pretty darn funny.
Jethro wants to be an astronaut and plucks something like 20 chickens so he can make a set of …

Star Trek: One of Our Planets Is Missing is the third episode of the animated TV series that aired on morning television in 1973. I felt that this outing was very suspenseful. It’s amazing how easy it is to get involved in this tales and really feel …

The August 25, 2010 edition of the American version of Big Brother was the Power of Veto episode. Quite honestly, it was the competition that was the best part of the very long hour. The truth is that many of these shows could be shown in a …

Here is another spooky episode more in gear towards Halloween than a normal Gilligan’s Island episode. This one kind of creeps me out to watch, since Gilligan and the Skipper freak out and think Gilligan has turned vampire. Of course the Skipper gets caught up into Gilligan’s paranoid state, …

That Girl: Ten Per Cent of Nothing Is Nothing is okay, but not great, especially since it has some issues. The first issue for me is that we’ve got another case of the rotating agent for Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas). The problem is that they’ve never said …

I like T.A.P.S., the show featuring the Ghost Hunters Jay and Grant. Those are the founders of TAPS, and they do a great job of investigating and debunking the ghost stories that they find across the country. I started watching this show a few years ago. …

The Fall Guy: The Adventures of Ozzie and Harold is not a favorite episode of mine by any stretch of the imagination. There are a number of reasons for this. First, the opening stunt sequence I don’t find believable, not because of the action, but I just …

Columbo: How to Dial a Murder begins with a lecture about control by Dr. Eric Mason (Nicol Williamson). The opening conversation between Mason and Dr. Charles Hunter (Joel Fabiani) is interesting and intriguing. I went to immediate alert because there were two Doberman pinchers present with cute …

Death Note Episode 25 begins with L questioning Rem about the Death Notes, but the Shinigami reveals as little as possible about them. Meanwhile, Light makes sure that Rem will have to kill L to protect Misa, and kill herself in the process.
This was a very dark and …

The Night Lords arc is the longest arc on Trinity Blood. Period. There has been no other arc yet that holds the viewer in awe, fear, and horror is such a contemptible light, as such I have not seen before. This is Trinity Blood episode 15: “The Night Lords …

Although the episode was well written and well executed I was still left with the feeling that it was a bit stupid. The reason why I feel that way, were the crimes themselves, just a sense of human pettiness and stupidity. But then again, it might have been just …

The laughs on the thieves in this episode of The Twilight Zone. From season two, A Most Unusual Camera focuses on two crooks, a married couple named Chester and Paula Diedrich, who get away with their crime with nothing of worth, including an antique camera. They are …

I knew there was a spin-off from the old show Raven called Cory in the House but I never got a chance to actually watch it until yesterday; when my daughter had it on TV and I just happened to be in the room.
After seeing a couple episodes in …

I really like the opening part of Stargate: Infinity: Coming Home which deals with the age old problem of prejudice. One of the members of Major Bonner’s team is named Ec’co. He’s a green, rather unusual alien being. However, he’s also a half breed. His …

M*A*S*H: Henry in Love is an awkward show because I just don’t understand the mentality behind all the marital cheater that goes on. It makes no sense to me, but that’s because I’m pretty traditional. What occurs in M*A*S*H: Henry in Love, is that Henry Blake (McLean …

In the finale of the first season, Haim makes Joanne (wow, she’s back!) breakfast and screws up the kitchen in the process. What a lovely surprise this is for Susie and Feldman when they discover it that way. However, looks like the breakfast was all for nothing as Joanne …

Date My Mom by MTV is a reality show that send the dater on a date with the mother of the prospectful date. Let’s say that you are invited on a date, instead of you going for yourself, you send your mother instead, giving your mother certain guidlines to …

I have watched every episode of ‘The Good Life’ about ninety times as I was around as a kid in the 1970s, so I watched it first time round, and then I catch the repeats nowadays. This episode ‘Wind-Break War’ is one of my favourites. This is …

Log 85: Sign of the Twins is the twelfth episode of Adam-12’s third season, and it’s an average one in my book. I think that might be because there’s another drug story in it, and I’m really burned out of drug stories. I’m not sure why that …

“Inside Man” is a season seven episode of “Star Trek: Voyager” that I like a little, but that is about it. What I like about this episode is that two characters from “Star Trek: The Next Generation” appear: Lt. Barclay and Counselor Troi appear and deliver entertaining moments, especially …

That Girl: Hearing Today, Gone Tomorrow is a very good episode. I remembered this one. It always makes me laugh. The general premise is that Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) is up for a commercial for a car product to be shot outdoors in the current snow …
