I’m just glad that CSI is back on track. To me, it lost its footing in the previous season, which coincided with Grissom’s sabbatical. No matter how of course the producers bandaged the situation, the crack evidently showed.
To me this was understandable, for how do you cope …

Baseball manager for the Los Angeles Dodgers, Leo Durocher was the Man of the Week on this episode of The Dean Martin Comedy Hour, which has been repackaged as The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast for distribution. Actually, Durocher was retired at the time of this get together.
It was …

I am shocked that women would allow their young girls to parade across television screens and stages in such adult, provocative clothing. This reality television show follows little princesses (kid beauty contestants) in their quest for crowns and cash. THe mothers on the show are not as …

M*A*S*H: Captains Outrageous centers on Father Francis Mulcahy, played wonderfully with mild perfection by William Christopher. Though Mulcahy has given one-hundred percent of himself to helping out at the 4077th and with the children at the orphanage, he continues to be passed over for promotion. He’s a …

“The Flavin’ And The Mavin’” was a decent episode of the CBS sit-com Two And A Half Men, although the one-liners were not as clever as they usually are, and the ending of the episode was not going to be a surprise to anyone. I will give you …

The Apprentice U.K. has begun what is apparently its sixth season. I’ve only seen a couple, but I enjoy it, sometimes even better than the United States version. The show began with 16 candidates, all vying to work for Lord Alan Sugar, who they meet for the …

Constable Benton Fraser has been fired, only there is paperwork to be processed, so he’s still on duty. This is from the new boss, played by Camilla Scott. Her character’s name is Inspector Meg Thatcher. She’s not terribly thrilled by Fraser. The funny thing is …

This is one of the funniest episodes of Season 3.
It opens rather ominously with Gordon (happily in prison) telling a fellow hunter Kubrick that ‘Sam Winchester must die’ and the hunter agreeing to help track Sam down.
Sam & Dead get a call to tell them that someone has broken …

This episode investigates only one case, but it is extra intense. This time the crime scene is in the first class on a plane. They only have 24 hours to solve the case before the FBI takes over the case and the crime scene “flies away.” What makes the …

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 …

Superstars of Dance, hosted by Irish dance great, Michael Flatley, has really been fascinating to watch. In this unique competition show, dancers from eight countries have faced off against one another in team dance, pairs, and solos.
The show could have been a political disaster, with the judges all …

I love, love, love watching Eastenders on BBC1. The argument, the tears the drama! And it always happens a big family do, like a wedding, at Xmas or of course in the Queen Vic!
I remember curling up on the sofa when I was a kid and it first started, …

Now here is a fun science fiction TV show. Star Trek: The Naked Time lets us really have some good times with the Enterprise crew. It all happens because they end up infected by a disease which causes them to become more emotional and carefree. These …

There seems to be an influx of programs on television today that focus on crime and criminals. This one focuses on the actual jail experience. This is a nice twist because most reality shows center on what goes on prior to the crime occurring, or while …

Last night was probably the third time I’ve seen the Simpson’s episode “The Parent Rap” and it is funnier each and every time.
The episode is essentially a spoof of our legal system and judges who spend their time thinking up creative punishments to get in the news than actually …

One of the things I’ve always remembered about the filming of The Twilight Zone: Third from the Sun is how the show is filmed. It’s the camera angles that really give it a warped feel. It’s vital for the story and it puts the viewer off guard.
The …

Whoopi: Sticky Fingers, from November 2003, features Whoopi Goldberg’s character of Mavis Rae being arrested for shoplifting. What led into the tale was Mavis shopping with Nasim (Omid Djalili) and talking about how she was being watched for shoplifting because of her race and that it superceded Nasim’s …

This is an interesting series that I sometimes watch on the cable television channel called WEtv. I like watching it because not only is it like shows like Forensic Files and so on that I like to watch, but this one seems a little different in the sense that …

“I Love New York” is a spin-off of “Flavor of Love.” “New York” was one of the competitors on “Flavor of Love” and I suppose VH-1 thought she was so outrageous that she deserved to get her own show. “I Love New York” has a houseful of men …

Well, that was an interesting Simpson’s episode. I haven’t seen “How I spent my Strummer Vacation” before but it turned out to be pretty cool.
Homer gets caught on camera dissing his family and, just when he thinks they couldn’t be any madder at him, they surprise him (because they …

The first scene of the episode was great as far as letting the watcher know what the premise of the story is and gives a great pipe in for the turning plot. Two curious kids, a gas station, and monsters are a great way to start a scary …

“A New Enemy Appears: Nephrite’s Evil Crest” is the fourteenth episode of the Sailor Moon series and picks up where the previous episode concluded. At the end of the last episode, Nephrite, Jadeite’s replacement, was briefly shown, and at the start of this episode, he is fully introduced. I …

Out of all the medical shows featured on tv along with Marcus Welby,md, Dr. Kildare, and Ben Casey in the 70’s along came Medical Center featuring the heart throb Chad Everett. After 10 years it was finally not renewed and I was devasted. Nick at night had …

The 16th episode of Sea Hunt’s third season on TV was called Submarine Explosion, and it’s a story that has some potential nasty ramifications for deep sea diver, Mike Nelson (Lloyd Bridges). The ex-Navy frogman has signed on for a dangerous job, that of laying out underwater explosives …

The more I see the show Destination Truth, the more I find myself liking it. None of the episodes have lived up to the first one I watched but they are still pretty close.
Last night’s episode “King Tut’s Curse/Swamp Ape” was probably the best thing I watched last night.
The …

1969 was indeed a very good year, at least for the team members of SG-1 when they end up walking through the Stargate and finding themselves not in their own time anymore.
Stargate SG-1: 1969 is really a super fun episode that I adore watching. The team’s reaction to their …

Beast Wars - Coming of the Fuzors, Part 2 is much more fast paced and action oriented than the first part, which mainly served to set up several storylines that would continue to build over the rest of the season and series. In this episode, the Predicons continue to …

That Girl: Mission Improbable Part 2 begins with the usual review of things that happened in the prior week’s opening episode where actress Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) agrees to spy on a sleep wear manufacturer’s competitor. She goes to work as a seamstress for the competitor, though she …

Monday night’s episode of Heroes brought us to a conclusion of the current storyline and the Villains storyline. I thought it was a good idea to end the storyline at this point rather than dragging it out through the second half of the season. The show was …

Someone finally fit the bill that the producers of The Andy Griffith Show were looking for. I think Aneta Corsaut was super as Helen Crump, Opie’s teacher, but I’m really not sure why she was better than Joanna Moore. Whatever the reason, we meet Miss Crump for …

For no other reason than me wanting something to watch until Ghost Hunters came on, I decided to watch another rerun of the show Bones. This time, it happened to be one I have seen a couple of times before; The Santa in the Slush.
I’m still a bit confused …

Trinity blood episode 1: Flight Night is a example of an post-apocalyptic vampire story done right. With a dash of humor and some thirteen cubes of sugar, Trinity blood manages to deliver a engaging story and endearing characters, such as Father Abel Nightroad. After Armageddon, vampires or “Methuselah” were …

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Leviathan, show eight of this second season, features a guest cast that includes Karen Steele as Cara Sloan and Liam Sullivan as Dr. Anthony Sterling. The series stars Richard Basehart as Seaview’s creator, Admiral Harriman Nelson, and David Hedison as the …

I was able to watch two episodes of Hogan’s Heroes at lunch today, including one that was kind of funny; Crittendon’s Commandos.
This one had the return of Col. Crittendon, who I last saw in an episode where he didn’t know the POW camp Hogan and his men were stationed …

I like to watch Tom and Jerry and this one of my favourite episodes. This episode is entitled push-button kitty and it starts off with Tom relaxing right next to Jerry’s mouse hole while he sneaks out and comes back with a piece of cheese while the owner alerts …

Just as expected of this great show, it was a really fun and interesting episode. Aside from the investigation, there was some social message as well, but I felt like it didn’t really work well. I think it was a just a little bit over the top as the …

From October 1969, the 8th season of this long standing, 90 minute western series, The Virginian: Halfway Back from Hell reminds me of an episode of my favorite TV western, Laramie. It’s the ultimate goal of that episode, to start a ranch with gunfighters starting over with a …
