That 70s Show: Fez dates Donna
I happened to turn on a re-run of That 70s Show this afternoon; Fez Dates Donna and found it was absolutely hillarious.

Gravity Falls (Cartoon series)
I only watched this show because my friend asked me to. I admit that it is rare for me to watch stuff like this but…This here, right here, Gravity Falls sure is good.
The animation for this cartoon is good and it really kept my eyes on screen since sometimes, there …
Smallville Season 7 episode 7

The episode started of kind of funny watching Lana giddy with joy at moving at …
Anime (Animation) : Kids On The Slope
The animation is wonderful, the story is lively, and when those two main characters start playing jazz I just can’t help but close my eyes and smile. The anime Sakamichi no Apollon (also known as Kids on the Slope in English) truly is a masterpiece. I am a big …
Gilligan’s Island: Two on a Raft
I’ve been a bit bored at home lately so I’ve been watching all the episodes of the long-time re-running show Gilligan’s Island from start to finish (not including the various movies after the last episode aired). This included the first aired episode Two on a Raft.
This is a cute …

M*A*S*H: Bottle Fatigue
I was really happy to see M*A*S*H: Bottle Fatigue come along towards the end of the eighth season of this astounding comedy series. There is an earlier episode where they’d had a chance to really deal with alcoholism, but didn’t. It left me with a bad taste. …
The Simpsons: The Mook, The Chef, The Wife and Her Homer
My daughter and I ended up sitting down to watch a re-run of The Simpsons last night entitled The Mook, The Chef, The Wife and Her Homer. I have seen bits and pieces of this one before but last night was the first time I finally got to watch …

The Office: Local Ad
This season of The Office has been alternating between hour-long episodes and half hour episodes and again I find that the half hour episodes are far better. Local Ad is one of those shorter episodes, but it still feels a little like filler.
Perhaps the need for every episode of …
Bring ‘Em Back Alive: The Shadow Women of Chung Tai
It’s yet another romance for Frank Buck in Bring ‘Em Back Alive: The Shadow Women of Chung Tai. I doubt the real Frank Buck had a girl popping out of the woodwork every other week. Bruce Boxleitner fans may like it, but I’ve never liked
the notion of …
Star Wars: The Clone Wars - Episode 1.2: Rising Malevolence
Yawn, yawn, yawn. After the last episode, “Ambush”, and now this one, you just can’t help but ask yourself how this could get any worse than it already is. The second episode of the season, “Rising Malevolence”, depicts Anakin Skywalker and his apprentice, Ahsoka Tano (who is a cute …
Stargate: Infinity: The Long Haul TV Show
I love the very first image we see in Stargate: Infinity: The Long Haul. It’s just a lovely mix of colors and is beautiful to look at. Too quickly, we’re drawn into the latest effort to escape their attackers. This half hour entry is the last …
LAW AND ORDER TV SHOW
At my house, the television set is usually set on TNT, to watch Law & Order. I am a court advocate, and I enjoy watching the workings of the police and of the court actions, afterwards, on this t.v. drama.

True Blood on HBO
I just started watching the hit show True Blood from HBO and so far it has been a fun ride. If blood and really explicit sexual scenes don’t make you squeemish or you enjoy that than this show is for you.
The characters are easy to digest and the story …
Kim Kardashian on Dancing With the Stars
Ok. I’m a sucker. I watch anything with Kim Kardashian on it. I think she’s perfect for the show; you can tell that she has no dance experience. I hope she is kept on the show by viewers so we can see how much she has improved. I think …
Stargate Atlantis: Search and Rescue
The fifth and final season of Stargate Atlantis begins with an episode called Search and Rescue. Now this concludes a story that was done as a cliffhanger in season 4, and I didn’t see that. Actually, the only reason I’m reviewing the fifth season is because an …
Eerie India television show
When i was a young teenager I liked a television show called Eerie Indiana and I would watch it every week without fail. It must have been good because ten years later I can still remember a lot of the episodes, and was compelled to order it on a …
Babylon 5: Season 1, Episode 7: Mind War
Now this is more in line with what I’ve come to expect from Babylon 5. The story is engaging and there are several angles to the story. While the episode could’ve gone with the traditional “psi cops are good guys trying to catch the rogue villain” route, …

MacGyver: The Spoilers
Season three was not the year for me to be watching MacGyver. Right now I’m not sure if I watched all of these or not because I’m just way too animal sensitive to watch shows where animals are killed. I cry and get too depressed. Kill …

Have Gun - Will Travel: The Protege
There’s some drama for sure in Have Gun - Will Travel: The Protégé when Richard Boone’s Paladin teaches Peter Breck’s Kurt Sprague in gun use and etiquette. It’s so weird to see Breck playing this kind of role. He was all decked out in a proper city …

One Life to Live - June 9, 2010 TV Show
I remember actually watching the premier episode of One Life to Live. It became my favorite soap opera and remained that way for many years. Then the show turned its back on its history, and now I may watch five shows a year, if that. One …

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 …
The Andy Griffith Show: Three’s a Crowd TV Show
A few shows back, Julie Adams guest starred on The Andy Griffith Show: Three’s a Crowd as County Nurse Mary Simpson. I stated in my review that she was a strong woman, and thus, the romance didn’t last. The producers apparently attempted to fluff up Mary and …

Katherine Langford, the woman who recruited Daniel Jackson for the Stargate program, is re-introduced in this episode. No, she is not played by the same woman but an equally talented one.

The New Adventures Of Old Christine
I’m always willing to give new shows a chance especially when the shows I love are in reruns or have been replaced with shows I don’t like. One of these was the case with The New Adventures of Old Christine. The ads that were run from the show took …
The Cleaner: Chaos Theory
As The Cleaner: Chaos Theory went on, I kept wondering who it was who was playing William Banks’ old friend, Quinn. He was so familiar; finally realized it was Jeff Fahey. He was perfect for the part, but with the look he had, I didn’t recognize him.
The …

Metrocast Cable
I use Metrocast cable TV and in my opinion the service is great and I have really enjoyed it. I use the basic package but there are a lot of good channels included with the basic package. I chose the basic package because it was very cheap …

Ayashi No Ceres Anime
Ayashi No Ceres is one of those Japanese Anime/Manga stories that stuck with me whenever I think about Japanese cartoons or animes as they are called. Ayashi No Ceres started out as a manga and then began an anime. Which is what most animes evolve from. After reading the …
The X-Files: Season 3, Episode 2: Paper Clip
Concluding the three part extravaganza, this episode manages to maintain all of the things that worked about the previous episode, while toning down on the stuff that didn’t. The pseudo-philosophical narration is still here, but it doesn’t play as large a part as it did when Mulder was …
