Heroes - Fall Finale
Monday night’s episode of Heroes brought us to a conclusion of the current storyline and the Villains storyline. I thought it was a good idea to end the storyline at this point rather than dragging it out through the second half of the season. The show was …

Law & Order SVU: Solitary
Well, I still don’t like the new ADA on Law & Order SVU, but at least the episodes are getting somewhat interesting; even though they always seem to have some sort of a downer for an ending.

MASH Series- DVD Boxed Set

Columbo: Double Shock TV Show

Whoopi: The Fat and the Frivolous TV Show

Comedy Central Roast of Rosanne

Remington Steele: In the Steele of the Night TV Show

The Andy Griffith Show: Jailbreak TV Show
It’s another example of big city cops not trusting the little Mayberry sheriff’s office in this February 1962 episode of The Andy Griffith Show called Jailbreak. It’s also another use of the ‘Barney thinks he can do everything’ plot device. Combined, it leads to some good comedy, …

Hosted by Josh Gates of Destination Truth, Ghost Hunters’ 100th Episode was turned into a two hour event that included the investigation of Alcatraz, the famous penal island off the waters of the Pacific Ocean near San Francisco.

Big Brother: Power of Veto 8/18/19 TV Show
The August 18, 2010 episode of Big Brother was the Power of Veto episode, and it was the most fired up episode of the season. In fact, I think there were more fireworks than just about any other episode.
What brought about the increased volume was that Brendon opened …
30 Rock: Pilot

The X-Files Born Again Episode
