While the name this episode of The Adventures of Brisco County Jr. might lead one to think there’s baseball in the mix, there isn’t. Brooklyn Dodgers is named for two teenagers who are on their own, fending for themselves, after a tragic accident years earlier that caused the …

As I mentioned in another review, I had an opportunity to watch some re-runs on TV last night. The first re-run was for the Simpsons but the other one was a re-run of Family Guy that I had not seen before yesterday called Family Goy.
This episode meant well, but …

Originally published as a manga in 1987, Hirohiko Araki’s Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure quickly rose to fame as one of the best-selling manga series of all time. Shockingly enough, a proper anime series adaptation for the show wouldn’t arrive until 2012, 25 years after its initial creation. Being adapted so …

This episode of Make It or Break It involved the girls going to their first prom, the relationship between the characters and Payson’s injury.
As far as the prom goes it was nice to see the girls outside of the gym and in a real life setting. I had …

Medium Season 4 Episode 15- Being Joey Carmichael
This was another spooky and bizarre episode of Medium. It was intentionally confusing and strange. The whole show deals with the paranormal and the bizarre, but I think this episode has done an extra good job at weirding me out. Usually …

Kung Fu: The Legend Continues: Shadow Assassin has a couple of different dramatic angles to the plot. In part, there’s another serial killer on the loose, known as the Shadow Assassin. This comes to the front over some book that reveals secrets, not unlike having magician ‘how …

What I liked about this episode: There are times when the show doesn’t …

The Pied Piper episode of Bring ‘Em Back Alive isn’t about the old fairytale,though I wish it were. The setting for this show is 1939 Malaya. I may have actually seen this episode before, or else this is a retread of another show I’ve seen. I …

Weeds is one of the best dramas/comedies on tv right now. If you like an edgy, sometimes funny, sometimes poignant show that pushes the envelope from traditional sitcoms, this show is the one for you. The excellent acting of Mary Louise Parker and Elizabeth Perkins make it clear why …

In the far distant future of the year of 2015, the angel’s have returned. Welcome to Neon Genesis Evangelion episode 1 “Angel Attack”, an historic animation that has an story that is unrivaled by any other animation that has come out since then. The setting of this episode is …

Jack Dalton is back again, only this time he thinks he’s going as crazy as I think his character really is. He’s sleepwalking and picturing himself shooting MacGyver. Something’s amiss, and he needs Mac to help him figure out what it is. The episode is called Brainwashed, …

I was never a big fan of L.A. Law, though with reruns, I probably have seen most if not all of the entire series, but as I turned on One Rat, One Ranger to watch it for the first time in years, my initial thought was, “Wow, what a …

“Showdown in Pewter City” is the fifth episode of the “Pokemon” series and it features Ash’s first gym battle as well as the introduction of Brock Slate, the gym leader of Pewter City. I like this episode a lot, and not because of the gym battle, either. The gym …

In 1973, after the live action had been off the air for several years, an animated version of Star Trek hit the Saturday morning lineup.
The plus of this series was that all of the performers from the live action show returned. Having the original actors voice their characters …

The Walking with Dinosaurs series aired on the Discovery Channel. It consisted of a weeklong miniseries and several specials made afterwards. The Giant Claw was one of them. In this special, a nature show host pretended to go back in time and see the dinosaurs. …

Stargate SG-1: Rite of Passage from the fifth season brings back the character of Cassandra, the alien child from season one’s Singularity, who was adopted by Doctor Janet Fraiser. While I love seeing Cassandra in a new episode, the original actress was unavailable and they chose to recast …

Yet another Simpsons episode I haven’t seen before; where have I been. If I had known about the episode “Apocalypse Cow” I wouldn’t have been so quick to write off the later seasons of the show.
This one was actually quite interesting. You have a bored Bart joining the 4-H …

This episode was set in Mexico. It wasn’t one of my favorites, but I will take two bad episodes out of twenty two. The unsub was killing elderly women. Who kills grandmas? That’s just plain wrong! But I guess that was the point. While it was fun to …

This is a very entertaining show that I discovered by accident about a year and a half ago. I was tired of the horrible shows on television and was looking for something different. That’s when I saw those cute adorable faces. They were the Gosselin sextuplets and they were …

I had never seen the Monk episode Mr. Monk and the Paper Boy before and I have to admit, after seeing it finally, I absolutely loved it. It was one of the best Monk episodes ever made.

I just finished watching the Japanese series called Hana Yori Dango. I know this was shown in Japan in 2007, and I am most probably late at doing this review, but I just finished it and here is what I have to say, I love this series so much …

Why do I feel like everytime I write about Family Guy Season 10, I’m asking for help, to save the series before it’s driven into the ground even more? I want so much for this series to be great, but as each new episode comes out, I’m finding myself …

I usually watch KXAN channel 36 for my news channel. I think the anchors Robert Hadlock and Leslie Rhode are very professional and yet they give us the news in a more human manner instead of simply reading the news.
Rhode has not been on the channel until recently …

MrBurns wants to see how good his workers are in case of a fire drill emergency and so decides to have a fire drill. However it takes more than 15 minutes for Homer to come out. It is really funny since the place should be evacuated in seconds, but …

In 2002, the Biography Channel did a very nice review of the M*A*S*H comedy series called M*A*S*H: Television’s Serious Sitcom. The smash show ran for 11 seasons on CBS. Narrated by Bill Mumy, numerous then-current interviews were done with many of the show regulars and powers that …

This episode tells the story of two crimes investigate by the Las Vegas Crime Scene Investigators. One of the crimes targets Grissom on a personal level and really gets the amount of emotion out of him, which was never previously displayed on the show. This is the first time …

If you love Law and Order, you will love this show: Cold Case. It is not about lawyers, but it follows the same idea of trying to put the pieces together to solve a crime. It even comes on TNT where Law and Order reruns play.
The show …

Good Luck Charlie is Disney’s recent television show, and it’s a lot different from their other ones. For example, in this show, no one is famous. No one lives on a ship, and nobody can see the future. That’s what I like about this. Good Luck Charlie follows a …

Civil Wars was one of my favorite TV shows when it aired. I was highly disappointed when it was canceled so quickly. The show starred Mariel Hemingway, Peter Onorati (who was clearly etched on my brain for Cop Rock, which I adored), Debi Mazar, and Alan Rosenberg, …

M*A*S*H: Hey, Look Me Over is co-written by Alan Alda and Karen Hall. Hall is one of the show’s few female writers, and she seemed to have come along in the last couple of years and did a few episodes. It’s probably sad the number of female …

In M*A*S*H: Hot Lips and Empty Arms, Major Houlihan (Loretta Swit) asks for a transfer. She is just fed up with everything and wants out. It all stems from lamentations about past choices, memories that pop up when she hears from an old girlfriend.
What I like most …

OK, I have to say it. I have watched plenty of Ghost Hunters episodes in the past and have been left with doubts about what they have found. But, when I saw the Season 2 episode “Crescent Hotel & Dr. Ellis” I have to admit I was pretty creeped …

From the Earth to the Moon was a marvelous and dramatic account of the United States quest to reach the moon. The early part of the quest is focused more on the race with the Russians over who would conquer the moon first, while the second part is …

Peter Griffin is the best! And I say this unequivocally…and this is proven in the episode Padre de la Familia, where Peter becomes a part of a pro-American campaign….trying especially to rid the US workforce of non-Americans….He proceeds to visit his mother to obtain a copy of his birth …

The typical episode of the office has at least two major plot lines, and while this episode had two plot lines it was much the much more typical A and B plot than most episodes of the office. The B plot involves a Ping-Pong table that has just been …

The comic relief and the ‘oops, please don’t notice we changed actors’ segment of From the Earth to the Moon comes in Part 7: That’s All there Is. This segment is aptly narrated by the character of Alan Bean (Dave Foley).
Actually, what really surprised me is that I’ve …

Ghost movie, or horror movie, you may call this tv series. It tells a story about a woman who is able to see and communicate with the dead! Spooky huh? Well, this is an interesting series to watch for people who loves that kind of stuff, …

When I was younger, I used to go to water parks all the time. I loved the ones that had a raft, as the ones without generally scared me. This is because I once came down a waterslide and landed in the bottom wading pool in the …

Stargate SG-1: Collateral Damage is another of the season nine shows that I tolerate Ben Browder’s Cameron Mitchell character a bid more than in other shows. It’s probably for the same reason as the last time — he’s somewhat away from the team and able to be himself …

This is a children’s show on PBS/KCET. The concept is interesting, and unique. In this world, words equal objects. What I mean is that if one puts the letters B A R N together, the word actually becomes a barn, with the letters still clearly visible. …
