Just two episodes after seeing Robert Donner as Buffalo Bill Cody, in Voyagers!: Sneak Attack we see Disney’s Ike Eisenmann playing a young Bill Cody before he got the nickname. It’s not just our voyagers meeting Cody back in 1860 Utah, but an ‘I’ve got something to prove’ …

I am reviewing the Solitary Cyclist, a Sherlock Holmes adventure from the boxed set, The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes, which was produced by Granada television in 1983. In this episode, Holmes is employed by a music teacher. She cycles to work every morning, and is followed by …

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 …

It took me some time to start watching the TV show “House”, and therefore I did not know why so many people were watching it and Grey’s Anatomy. In fact, at the time I was more interested in catching up on episodes of OZ I had missed a couple …

Kim Possible is a show on Disney about a cheerleader and her bumbling sidekick (and his pet naked mole rat) who repeatedly saves the world. It is a very cute cartoon aimed mainly at teens, but also enjoyable for adults- or at least this adult.
In Steal Wheels, the first …

I didn’t know a lot about 21 Jump Street before I started watching the dvds. It’s a show my parents used to watch and talked about starring a young Johnny Depp.
After hearing about it a few times I decided to check it out.
The premise of the show is …

“Pokemon Emergency!” is the second episode of the Pokemon television series and it picks up pretty much right where the previous episode, “Pokemon, I Choose You!” left off. This episode covers almost as much ground as the first episode does, and it really is an half-hour that goes by …

I absolutely love the concept behind Fireball XL5: Flying Zodiac. The puppets celebrate Colonel Steve Zodiac’s ancestry in this episode, which is one of 39 black and white ones that aired back in the early sixties. Gerry Anderson created this futuristic view of space and space travel, …

The emmy nominee show on Bravo television known as Project Runway is terrific. It features the latest upcoming clothes designer fighting for the chance to become top in their field. The judges are great, though somewhat hard on the designers. Although some of the designers …

The Discovery Channel just aired a program on The Rapture that I found rather interesting. The Rapture encompasses the idea of Jesus coming to rescue people who have had faith in Him prior to a seven year period of earthly damnation. I was surprised to learn that …

I just love this channel! Actually this is a new additional channel from our cable television service provider. At first, I thought it was a quite boring channel because I had the idea that it only shows people in the past and, what do I …

Steve-O dropped by to explain his back injury that kept him from dancing the night before. He’s fine and wants to stick around. He also reminded everyone that Lacey Schwimmer, the pro, advised him not to do the flip that caused his injury. Lacey is known …

Wagon Train: The Gus Morgan Story is not one of my favorites. It really never appealed to me. It bores me, to be honest. Peter Falk is the main star, playing Gus Morgan. Also appearing is Tommy Sands as Gus’ brother, Ethan Morgan. The …

The best part about this episode of “The Clone Wars” was that most of the regular cast wasn’t in it. It’s not that I don’t like the regular cast of characters, it’s just that I know what happens to most of them. Now that is generally true of most …

The Twilight Zone: Judgment Night aired in December 1959 and took place in 1942. It centers around a man who isn’t clear on his own identity, but he does know a lot about German submarines and U-boats. This makes him suspicious to the captain.
One quick note of …

Ever since I can remember or even had access to cable television, the television show “Cops” would air on the cable television channel FOX. I remember that it was a hit television series for years as many people I know including me liked to watch it; as well as …

I’m not a fan of ER. I’ve watched a certain number of episodes over the years, but never an entire season; more likely, a handful of shows a season, if that. I’m more attached to the early and middle years as I watched more then and knew …

From September 2008, Stargate Atlantis: Whispers, episode 7 of season 5, again brings back the delightful character of Dr. Carson Beckett, played by Paul McGillion. They also have something new, an all female SG team. Now that’s a first.
The good and bad of Whispers from my point …

Ariel is perhaps the best episode of Firefly, and that is saying a lot. Joss Whedon’s characterization is in top form during this episode. He’s been hinting since the pilot that the only thing that Jayne is really loyal to is money. This episode brings that …

For Week 9 of The Apprentice - UK, the two teams are assigned to sell subscriptions for a text messaging service at an upcoming football game (for the Americans in the bunch, translate that to soccer). The event will happen at a match that features one of the …

Afro Samurai Episode 3 has the Brotherhood of the Empty Seven send a robotic clone of Afro Samurai after him to kill him.

The April 5th edition of Dancing with the Stars was to have a theme of telling a story, an edict given by judge Len Goodman on last week’s show. Below are some of my reactions to various dances of the week.
Evan, the figure skater, and Anna, the Russian …

This program came on TLC and I was so amazed by the families and the children that I saw. They were absolutely huge. Not just tall people, but actually really large. There was this one girl from Thailand who was to travel to England to find …

This episode resolves the case Artie was dealing with in the last 3 episodes. Artie works in the Warehouse 13, he is some kind a housekeeper if I can call him that way, of the Warehouse where artefact that affect people’s behaviour are held.
In last few episodes he was …

Sometimes, when you have a television series that has a serial plot-line, you end up with a somewhat weak episode that is primarily meant to introduce new plot points for the season.
The Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode, “Homecoming” fits this description.
The whole Buffy versus Cordelia for homecoming queen thing …

The thing about so many shows is that what happens seems to be too easy. By that I mean that every week something extraordinary happens to the characters of the show. That is why having House being a famous diagnostician is such a good idea, and one they …

I don’t know when the Simpsons episode “All About Lisa” was made, but last night was the first night I saw it. And, it wasn’t too bad.
There are two interesting storylines in this episode. First, you have Lisa becoming Krusty the Clown’s unpaid assistant and; through a variety of …

In That Girl: Soap Gets in Your Eyes, Ann gets a job on a soap opera which is ill timed since she’s about to meet Don’s parents. Don’s mother happens to watch the soap opera and isn’t able to separate Ann from her not-so-good character that she portrays. …

One of the Seinfeld episodes I got to watch recently (for about the third time) was the episode entitled “The Contest.” If you have never seen this episode, or any other Seinfeld episode for that matter, you need to watch it. You’ll understand why this show was as popular …

When I was a kid, we used to make the show A-Team a weekly viewing experience. But, I’ve never seen the first episode; Mexican Slayride before.
That is until tonight.
The 2-hour long episode does a great job introducing the main characters of the show (with a different actor playing “Face” …

The whole season of Heroes season 3 has been quite a ride. I guess there could never be any other series that would have this impact on me as the Heroes have. I followed through the first season, can’t wait for the 2nd season and now that I am …

Again the reality show has bitten another family. This show has been on E! for a little while, but I’d just never taken the time to watch. Kim Kardashian is a beautiful woman who doesn’t really get a lot of respect in Hollywood. She’s …

One of the great things about the Buffy the Vampire Slayer series is the other characters who help her in her battles. So, it’s refreshing to see an episode dedicated specifically to one of those characters, like the one entitled “The Zeppo.”
This one focuses on Xander and how he …

I remember years ago as a child watching The Loretta Young Show. The actress was quite beautiful and was very talented. Her shows were a delight. All I remember, though, is watching. I couldn’t tell you an episode. That’s because Loretta Young kept a …

This episode dealt with a Colonel from Stargate Command who actually fell for the, “You’re a God,” rhetoric that primitive people always spouted when teams came through the Stargate.
Seems another Stargate team was sent to a planet and never returned. When SG1 arrives, they find out from one …

Stargate SG-1: 200 was the celebration of Stargate SG-1’s two-hundredth episode and unlike the show done for number 100 which was for the crew, this one was more for the fans. An important thing to point out, per the producers, is that this show really doesn’t happen. …

The Twilight Zone, narrated by Rod Sterling, is a classic bit of television history. It featured a series of one-shot episodes with independent storylines. Each story featured a supernatural theme.
