Have Gun - Will Travel: Ella West starts a little differently with Paladin (Richard Boone) arriving in Abilene, so we don’t get the normal San Francisco beginning. Variety is good, though, so it’s nice to get a shake up in the opening scene. That doesn’t necessarily mean …

Chandler has decided that he cannot take anymore of his new roommate Eddie, and he knows that he is going to have to get rid of him because he cannot take him anymore. He consoles his friends at the coffee shop on how he can tell his new …

The episode begins with the entire Simpsons family blaming Bart for the damage done to their property. Later it turns out that it was their dog who had done this. The dogs seems a bit too hyper active. So they decide to get the dog checked. Instead of going …

Monsters Inside Me is an American factual TV show on the Discovery Channel about medical conditions that have affected people as the result of some kind of infection.
I find the show both scary and fascinating as the thought of some kind of organism living in your body is like …

When I first watched Supernatural two years ago I was intrigued by the funny-creepy topic of the episodes.
I am a fan of supernatural in general and the story of this show was exactly my kind of entertainment.
The story is centered on the adventures of two brothers Sam and Dean …

As a big fan of the show What Not to Wear (the U.S. version), I couldn’t help but check out the British version when I saw it listed in my TV listings. I have to say, I was disappointed. Perhaps it is cultural. I enjoyed listening …

One thing that I remember about the final season of this great series is that they mentioned in some way just about all of the early cast members, giving everyone a final nod. I always thought that was classy. In M*A*S*H: The Joker Is Wild, it’s Trapper …

Have Gun - Will Travel: Gun Shy is episode 29 of the first season of this Richard Boone series about a gunfighter named Paladin. In it, Kam Tong gets a bit more action as Hey Boy since the story revolves around a chess set made from jade that …

“Chained” was a Tony-centric NCIS episode, so naturally I loved it. But that is not the only reason that I enjoyed this episode.
“Chained” revolved around the storyline that Tony was undercover as a felon. One man involved in taking things from the Navy was arrested on another …

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 …

This episode brings up a large problem back in the 80’s when 21 Jump Street was very popular - AIDS.
There was very little known about AIDS back in the 1980’s. Parents were afraid to send their kids to school with children who had it. They were afraid …

From the second year of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, Escape from Venice was the fifth show to air. This science fiction program came from the mind of Irwin Allen, and it’s always been a favorite of mine. In this show, Captain Crane gets his …

From December 1957, the 9th episode of Highway Patrol’s third season was called Witness Wife. Basically, the title comes from a woman who ends up giving potentially harmful information to the killer, unaware of who he is. In fact, she pretty much points him towards her husband’s …

Paul Lewiston and Shirley Schimdt are alarmed on Denny’s proposal to Beverly to tie the knot. Their concern that if Denny is incapacitated, Beverly will have a control over the firm. Paul and Shirley planned their move with Brad. Paul is checking the pre-nuptial agreement, while Shirley was tasked …

Changing Patterns, the 31st outing of season 3 for Sea Hunt, revolved around a salvage operation; at least at the beginning. We learn this from the lead character, Mike Nelson, who told the viewers what was going on. It is still odd to me how the narration …

This episode takes place mostly in the past, specifically season one. Hiro has gone back to make another attempt to save Charlie. Charlie was one of my favorite characters back in season one so seeing her again was one of the joys of this episode. We …

I just do not like or enjoy Star Trek: Catspaw. I never have. It is one very weird show and it’s never ever drawn me in. I’ve still watched it many times (even the worst Star Trek beats out most of what was TV competition), but it’s …

Have Gun - Will Travel: The Man Who Wouldn’t Talk from season two is highly entertaining. It even brought on chuckles, especially when Charles Bronson is asking Richard Boone for advice on how to be romantic. There’s a great bit concerning Cyrano de Bergerac. One of …

When it was released that Cleveland Brown from Family Guy was getting his own spin-off, I actually had high hopes for the show. The lazy delivery of Cleveland Brown seemed to warrant it’s own show in the snippets that you got to see on Family Guy. However, after the …

Season eight of Stargate SG-1 continues its downward spiral with an episode called Threads. Now, it’s important to note that there are two versions of this episode. One is a special that aired in a ninety minute format, while the other is the edited down show that airs …

Although I thought On-Demand Television would be difficult to figure out prior to us getting it, I simply now could not live without it. We get our On-Demand TV through Comcast, who handles our phone, cable, and internet services for about a hundred dollars each month combined. …

I am a huge fan of 1980’s hair bands. So when I bought satellite tv and it came with a huge list of music channels, I was extatic to find out that a whole channel was dedicate to music from big hair bands from the 80’s.
I have always …

Death Note Episode 4 begins with Light coming up with a plan to kill the man tailing him and deciding to do experiments with the Death Note to see if he can control the person’s actions up to the time of death. After his experimental deaths occur, L …

Aqua Teen Hunger Force is a very funny and crazy show. This is a show you either will really love or you will really hate. I think the show is very funny. But some people tell me that they think it’s the worst those they have ever seen in their …

Glee is a new TV show on it’s first season on Fox. There are really only a handful of shows on Fox that I enjoy and I try to avoid this network as much as possible because they have a tendency to cancel shows that I like, I’m hoping …

For the most part, I love America’s Dancing with the Stars, so it was with curiosity that I watched Australia’s version of it recently. This was the 10th season premier of the Oz version. Here are a few observations.
–It’s basically the same type of set, with the …

The Twilight Zone: The Incredible World of Horace Ford isn’t a show I particularly look for, but it’s okay. The late Pat Hingle stars as the title character of Horace Ford. He’s 38 years old, and he just wants to live a happy life. However, he’s …

Stargate SG-1: Origin is really the third part of the Avalon 1 and 2 opening episodes of the ninth season, but for some reason they used a different name.
I’ll say upfront that the only thing I really like about this show is at the end because Richard Dean Anderson …

While not as good as the episode where Homer first reveals his homophobia, the Simpsons episode “Three Gays in a Condo” is definitely cute and actually provides some suspense in Homer and Marge’s marriage.
Basically, Homer and Marge have a falling out after he learns she became very upset with …

The Andy Griffith Show: Andy the Matchmaker is devoted to the concept of Barney’s insecurity and getting him a girlfriend. The first main bit of the show is a funny routine where Barney (Don Knotts) says he’s resigning as Andy’s deputy. One by one, Barney starts placing …

I watched the first season or two of Curb Your Enthusiasm recently. It’s a comedy show that used to be on HBO and it won a bunch of comedy awards so my favorable review is going to be nothing new to the enlightened television watcher who by fluke …

“Usagi Learns Her Lesson: Becoming a Star Is Hard Work” is the seventh episode of the Sailor Moon series and it’s one of those episodes that I truly feel fits the definition of “filler” perfectly. There’s nothing here that advances the main storyline or contributes to character development. Worse …

This episode pits the two agents against a homicidal pyrokinetic. It’s pretty straight forward, a trait which acts in the episode’s favor, but also to its detriment as well. While the fact that it’s a regular monster of the week isn’t negative in and of itself, the …

This episode is the second part and the continuation of the previous episode. In the previous episode, while working on the final stages of the escape from prison plan, Michael and his team organize a disruption in the life of the prison so that they can drill the …

NCIS is a detective show about a Navy Crime Investigative Service. So what they actually do is to resolve the crime cases that have anything to do with the Navy. I must say that from most of these crime investigative shows this is my favourite one.
The last season finished …

Law and Order SVU Season 1 Episode 5- Wanderlust
This was an average episode. What makes it average, is that one part of it was absolutely brilliant, and the other one was absolutely horrible. The writing was the good part of the story. It told to distort …

In my opinion, The Twilight Zone: Number 12 Looks Just Like You is one of the few bright spots in this final season of Rod Serling’s classic science fiction series. It’s sad that so many shows from this fifth year are duds. This one, however, is not. …

Season 9 begins with a dramatic tale, M*A*S*H: The Best of Enemies. Alan Alda’s Hawkeye Pierce is jovially headed for some R&R when his jeep develops a problem, enemy fire. As a result, a North Korean soldier forces the 4077th’s chief surgeon to go with him, only …

OK, the Ghost Hunters episode “The Red Room” turned out to be a big disappointment. I don’t mind watching the show and seeing them debunk various ghosts but it is pretty sad when they don’t even have anything they can debunk.
This one involved them making a trip to Louisiana …

From March 1969, Eileen was a seventh season episode of The Virginian. The story involved a young woman named Eileen who visits Shiloh. The trip was arranged by her father, a friend of Clay Grainger. At the heart of the trip is the fact that Eileen …

I had some concerns about the show House when I found the first episode “Broken” was going to focus solely on Hugh Laurie’s character while checked into a mental institution. But, after watching the 2-hour season premiere last night, I will say I was impressed by it.
The episode does …

For me, the real star of The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: Steel Horses is Comet the wonder horse. I adore Comet in this show. There are some really good scenes with him in this episode.
The show deals with Brisco getting a look at the coming thing, …

Star Trek: The Next Generation - Chain of Command, Part One is an episode that I do not care much for. Now the second part to this two part story, I enjoy immensely, but part one does not settle well with me. What bothers me throughout this episode is …

Invisibleman is a show that was quite popular back at the beginning of 2000 and I liked it because I like this kind a sci-fi stuff about special powers and x-man. Darien is an I-man, he can turn invisible. He has a gland that produced quick silver. In one …

I enjoyed watching Blacke’s Magic: A Friendly Game of Showdown, in part because of the wonderful guest cast. In this episode, a man’s invention, a voice activated toy called Dynamite Danny, is believed to have gone up in flames. In reality, it’s been stolen by a rival …

As I mentioned in another review, my wife and I were watching re-runs of the show Bones this past weekend and finally got to watch one that we have seen references to from other episodes but never actually watched before; Aliens in a Spaceship.
This proved to be a very …

I believe that you can’t judge a show a show by the first season. Most shows usually need the first season to get the characters established and for the writers to find their footing. Great shows like Seinfeld and The Simpsons even needed two or three seasons …

Jonestown Cult is a disturbing documentary, released in 2009, concerning the mass suicide of over 900 members in 1978, at the urging of its charismatic leader, Jim Jones. It was interesting because a picture was painted of how the situation could get that bad without people questioning the …

Alan Hale guest stars in Edge of Evil, from season four of the outstanding western TV series, Laramie. The robust Hale’s character appears jovial, but his Roger Canby persona is far from the hearty soul of the Skipper on Gilligan’s Island. However, Hale is the powerhouse of …

This was the first of many alternate reality shows that Stargate SG1 would do. It is also one of my favorite episodes from Season One. Maybe it’s because this episode is Daniel-centric or maybe it’s because it was very well written and fun to watch.
Daniel and the …
