Confessions of a Teen Idol - Episode 5
Having just discovered Confessions of a Teen Idol on VH-1 yesterday during a re-airing of its fourth episode, today I tuned in for the latest showing, Episode 5.

Star Trek: The Changeling TV Show
Star Trek: The Changeling is another nifty show from the beginnings of this science fiction series. It’s a favorite that I never tire of seeing. Basically, what we have is the Enterprise encountering a highly sophisticated computer that calls itself Nomad. It’s a probe long thought …

The Two Coreys: Episode 2.7 - Role Models
What I have been noticing so far in much of this season’s episodes is that each one is like two sides to a coin - First we have the snobby and conceited fame and fortune lifestyle (the Feldmans), then there’s poor and lost with bridges burnt and only a …
Columbo: Last Salute to the Commodore TV Show
I don’t really remember watching this show, Columbo: Last Salute to the Commodore, but I’m sure I did. It’s just fallen out of my brain, and I believe the reason for that is that it’s quite possibly the worst episode of Columbo ever. It’s dull, not just …
The L Word on Showtime
If you haven’t had a chance to check it out, the L Word on Showtime is quite the controversial, edgy drama. Perhaps needless to say, The “L” in the “L Word” is lesbian. the show revolves around a group of LA lipstick lesbians and their romances and relationships. The …
Home Improvement TV Episode: Tool Man Delivers
Well, I finally had a chance to watch a Home Improvement episode while home at lunch (I got home in time, in other words, because the traffic wasn’t quite as bad as it normally is). I ended up seeing the one entitled Tool Man Delivers.
This one is actually kind …
Jimmy Kimmel Live
Jimmy Kimmel gets on my nerves every single night! My husband likes to watch Jimmy Kimmel Live. He seems to think Jimmy is funny but I can’t stand him. He is not funny and I have seen him be down right mean.
Did you watch Jimmy Kimmel Live during the …
Ghost Hunters: Altoona, PA
I didn’t watch Ghost Hunters at the beginning of its run about five years ago, but I have watched off and on for the last couple of years. They tend to go to a lot of old places that have reported haunts or mysterious happenings. One of …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Unforgiving Minute TV Show
Have Gun - Will Travel: Unforgiving Minute, episode 20 of season six of the Richard Boone western series, does not have my beloved introduction that takes place in San Francisco. I’m not sure how many shows in this year were without them, but from what I’ve seen in …
Adam-12: Log 141
In the second episode of Adam-12, we see quickly that our heroes, Pete Malloy and Jim Reed, have bonded. We also get the first mention of the ‘Pete should get married’ moments. While marriage was mentioned in the first episode, this is the beginning of what would …
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Long Night
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Long Night is definitely one of the best episodes from the first season of this western. I really enjoyed it. It kept me guessing and was exciting. I honestly can’t say that the heavy last minute, and it really was …
Smallville Season 8 Episode 4
This episode of Smallville was great. I really enjoyed the introduction of Maxima from Almerac. Sadly I think she was a one episode thing but hopefully we may get to see more of her in the future.
Basically, Tess sets off a crystal, Maxima a beautiful alien …
The Virginian: The Orchard TV Show
The Orchard aired in October 1968 and was part of The Virginian’s seventh season on television. The main reason I wanted to be sure to catch this show was that a favorite of mine, Ben Murphy, was one of the main stars. Murphy’s character was ranch hand …
Ghost Hunter’s International: Gate to Hell
The more I watch the show Ghost Hunter’s International, the more I find myself not liking the show all that much. Last night’s episode “Gate to Hell” was another example as to why.
The case itself is interesting. They visited a castle with no strategic importance at all and was …
Warehouse 13 season 1 episode 5 Elements
This episode was based on a really great idea; a robe that makes you walk trough the walls. Isn’t that an interesting artefact? I really find it interesting although I am quite sure it would be used for bad purposes if it existed.
Calaudia, the girl who kidnapped Artie in …
Chris Farley E! True Hollywood Story (E! network TV show)
Chris Farley was one of the most lovable Saturday Night Live characters of all time. I didn’t realize just how lonely and sad he actually was. This E! True Hollywood story really depicted the life behind the actor who was known for his crazy antics. …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea
This is one either a really good or a really bad episode depending upon your particular tastes. The central plot of this episode involves an underwater spider attacking the Seaview. Of course, this begs the question as to how the spider can breathe underwater and where did it come …
Smallville Season 7 episode 8
This episode of Smallville was a little weird. Basically Clark takes Kara’s crystal, sticks it in the fortress of solitude and lo and behold we have Lara, Clark’s biological mother and Zor El his evil uncle. Well replicas of them anyway.
While it was cool to see Clark’s …

CSI Season 1 Episode 1
CSI Season 1 Episode 1
A nice introduction to the series. Right from the start to we get to see the main characters of the story and what is it exactly that they do. Although they are easy on us and perform some kind of an introduction they also through …

Models of the Runway: They Love Me, They Love Me Not
OK, I was wrong. When the show Models of the Runway first came out, I assumed, because the judging was on the designers and not them, there wouldn’t be as much cattiness in this competition. Turns out, there was.
I do like the whole behind the scenes concept of this …
Twenty-four (24) Television Series
I really loved this action show that starred Keifer Sutherland who played the role of Jack Bauer. He is a member of the counter terrorism unit in Los Angeles. I have been watching this TV series ever since it started playing on air. The show is action packed and …
Warehouse 13 season 1 episode 6 Burnout
Warehouse 13 is a show about two secret service agents who look for artefacts that can affect human behaviour. In each episode they solve a different case but the warehouse itself holds a mystery that will probably be solved by the end of the season, at least I hope …
My Name is Earl
You know, I really didn’t think I was going to like this show when it first came out. Frankly, the previews of the first season looked a little corny. I actually only started watching it because it was in a convenient time frame (just before something else I wanted …
America’s got talent
America’s got talent is a great TV show and I love that the show is very entertaining but one of the best things about this show would have to be the judges. I like the attitude of Howie Mandel because he has a friendly but sarcastic attitude at times …
Monk Season 3
The third season of Monk was a transitional period, and that’s why I had to rate it so low. Sharona was one of my favorite characters and in this season she ended up leaving the show. I heard that it was a contract dispute and some money problems, but …
The Andy Griffith Show: Barney Mends a Broken Heart TV Show
Nurse Peggy McMillan is back again in The Andy Griffith Show: Barney Mends a Broken Heart, a third season episode from November 1962, where she and her beau, Sheriff Andy Taylor (Andy Griffith) have a little tiff, which prompts Deputy Barney Fife (Don Knotts) to try to set his …
The Defenders: Las Vegas v. Reid TV Show
The Defenders: Las Vegas v. Reid is the second show of this new law series that is as much comedy as it is drama. For example, in the opening tease, the first bit has the series leads, Jim Belushi and Jerry O’Connell, standing below the big, bold billboard …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Enemies TV Show
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Enemies, episode 29, starts out with a very dramatic teaser featuring a submarine called the Angler. It starts out innocently enough with an order for a course being given by Richardson (Tom Skerritt). Sub captain Williams (Robert Sampson) objects, …
Vampire High Season 1 Episode 2

This unusual episode shows what can happen when Earth sticks their collective noses into another world’s business, something Jack points out to Daniel at one point. Every time they go through the Gate, they impact the world they’re traveling to. This show, Icon, is really the first …
I Love Lucy (TV series) - Hollywood Anniversary (Episode)
“Hollywood Anniversary” is an episode of “I Love Lucy”. This episode takes place while the gang is in Hollywood. The plot of this episode is a little hard to believe because in it, Ricky is unable to remember the date of his marriage anniversary. The reason I say it’s …
The Golden Girls show
How on earth did some of the discussion on the Golden Girls manage to sneak by the censors? Maybe it was because the show featured four acclaimed actresses then in their golden years so the innuendo and raunchiness snuck by them or immobilized them completely. All I know is …
John Doe show
John Doe is a show that was airing in 2001 or 2002 and I remember seeing just a few episodes but I kind a liked the idea of the show. It was about a man who had no memories of his past but in the other hand knew the …
Baldwin Hills Season 2

The Twilight Zone: Spur of the Moment TV Show
The Twilight Zone: Spur of the Moment from this show’s fifth and final season is okay, but not a big favorite. I actually tend to watch it more because one of the guest stars for the half hour is Roger Davis, and I tend to enjoy his work …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea Season 3 Vol 2 DVD
The third season of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea is routinely vilified by fans of science fiction as a tragic end to an otherwise phenomenal program. The main problem with Season Three was the fact that it generally centered on some truly awful and ludicrous plots that …

Justice League - Tabula Rasa, Part Two
