The premise of the television show is that chefs who are specialists in different areas …

Shin Chan was originally a Japanese cartoon show. It’s sometimes compared to The Simpsons because the main character, Shin, is a bad boy like Bart Simpson, although he’s more rude and unaware of what’s acceptable behavior than outright misbehaving. The show just had a trial run on …

Eventually, even the most popular shows end up coming full circle and, either because they try too hard to re-invent themselves or because they run out of legitimate talent, they start showing some decline. This is especially true when it comes to reality television because you are always trying …

This has to be one of the funnier …

I use to watch Jerry Springer show that’s why this morning show captured my attention. The program is entitled Good Morning Kuya and the format - just the format, not the content - is somehow parallel. The first scene that I was able to see was the host, …

I enjoyed Sea Hunt: Monte Cristo quite a bit for several reasons. For one thing, when we saw scenes in the ocean, we saw some of the sea life. It was a little bit more than some of the shows I’ve seen lately.
For another thing, I loved …

Power Marketing is probably one of the best remembered of the Upright Citizens Brigade episodes. There is, after all, a lot of memorable stuff in this one (including the whole pennies thing). My favorite part of the episode is actually the Power Marketing sketch, for which the …

I don’t know, I just can’t get enthused about the show Ghost Hunters any more.
I’ve been practically begging them to go back to investigating private residences and they finally did last night. But, once again, they had a pretty limited amount of evidence. I think the only substantial thing …

“Royal Palm Estate” was a Jamaican soap opera from the nineties which used to be aired on Sunday evenings on the local channel CVM. I became a very big fan of the television series even though I was still too young to be watching those things. However, since there …

Kung Fu: The Legend Continues: Sacred Trust is episode 4 of the first season. I loved this continuation series, a show that moved the 70’s hit Kung Fu forward a few generations. David Carradine and Chris Potter starred. Since this was so early on, they were …

The Pilot episode will probably be one of my favorite episodes ever. It’s usually like that for pilot episodes. If it’s great then the succeeding episodes will be great too, some good but a few will be better. And for Grey’s Anatomy, I can say that the pilot episode …

The characteristics and particularly the flaws and mistakes of politicians make for some great comedy material and I particularly love any comedian or comedy show that makes use of politics as material.
Late Night News, with leading local stand up comedian Loyiso Gola, is one such show and I love …

Charlie Brooker turns his talents to drama with Dead Set; a five part miniseries chronicling a zombie outbreak in modern day Britain, all revolving around the Big Brother house, it’s housemates and the few surviving production staff.
It’s a pretty strong show to be honest. Well shot, well cast …

Think Rosemary’s Baby and you have the idea that is center stage to this April 1988 production, The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Small Assassin. Alice Leiber (Susan Wooldridge) has just become a mother, only it was a very unusual delivery and from the get go, she claims the …

As I’ve written in prior reviews for Stargate SG-1, season four was a turnaround, one in which the Jack and Daniel friendship was shoved aside in favor of the Jack and Sam dynamic, limited as it was. Jack and Daniel fans were furious and this episode, The Light, …

Boris Karloff’s 1958 anthology series, The Veil, took on yet another different tactic in the episode called Jack the Ripper. This is the first episode of the series where Karloff didn’t even have a small role in the production. All he did was host the show. However, …

What I like about this episode: I know he’s a guest star and was …

Yeah, I have to say I am now halfway through the second season of the show Ghost Hunters and am actually more disppointed in this one than I was in the first season. The episode “Beechwood Mansion and the Garden State” is a good example as to why.
Basically, you …

Movies That Shook The World: 2001: A Space Odyssey was an interesting look back at one of the most curious and alluring science fiction films ever made. With commentary, opinions, and remarks from those involved in the making of the classic movie and others who are mere fans, …

I have to admit I really get a kick out of M*A*S*H: An Eye for a Tooth from season seven. It’s a show that focuses on humor via some practical jokes. Unlike some other episodes which have had prankster storylines that were over-the-job and almost boring, this …

We watched the Monk series finale last night and I have to say it wasn’t quite as good as I thought it would be. But, it did have a few twists that I didn’t expect so it still managed to win some points.
First, the case was way too easy …

The second part of the finale for this season’s edition of Project Runway was both boring and exciting. It entertained and blahed. The reason? Well, in my opinion, I think it had too much time allotted to it. It was a full 2 hours and just …

I cannot believe that Diddy has an entire show dedicated to finding someone to be his peon. I also cannot believe that people would actually clamor for this position. For instance, a message appeared on the red phone that Diddy’s car needed washing. …

The Little Einstiens is a cartoon program for children ages zero to probably about five years old that airs at eight o’clock on Saturday mornings (EST) on the Disney Channel. My children have fallen in love with this group of explorative youngsters as they embark upon different journeys …

As Due South winds down, it gave us a storyline twist that really proved to be quite interesting. Due South: Hunting Season guest stars Jessica Steen as Constable Maggie MacKenzie who comes to Chicago for much the same reason as Constable Benton Fraser had, to track down a …

I really loved this episode. I did not care much for the first case, not because it wasn’t interesting and not because it was not important, but because of all the emotional story behind in. I don’t like it when the writers write some extra sentimental or righteous scenes …

The special affects in this series are truly amazing and you’d swear the extinct creatures racing across your TV screen are real. They look that genuine. This is also the third in the BBC “Walking With” series, the series that started with “Walking with Dinosaurs”. The creatures in this …

The last show of The Andy Griffith Show’s fourth year on the air was actually a pilot program called Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C. which featured Jim Nabors as the always lovable Gomer Pyle.

Emergency!: Crash is the final episode of the series’ first season. It’s notable as well for being the second and last appearance of John Smith as Captain Hammer. Salary demands kept him from continuing in season two, which I thought was a shame because he did a …

Confessions of a Teen Idol - Episode 3 is another thought-provoking show in what has turned out to be a big surprise for me. I’m not fans of any of these one-time teen idols, but they are making for interesting television.
One of the classic battles — at what …
