Psych: He loves me, he loves me not, he loves me, oops, he’s Dead
I ended up finishing my Psych mini-marathon last night by watching the season 1 episode “He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not, He Loves Me; Oops, He’s Dead.” Yes, I know that’s a long title for an episode (something that is somewhat common with this series), but it turned …
The Virginian: The Decision TV Show
This sixth season episode of The Virginian which was called The Decision was one I enjoyed a lot. One of the reasons the March 1968 went over so well with me is that three of the guest stars are people who I feel a connection to in one …
Beast Wars - Feral Scream, Part Two
Beast Wars - Feral Scream, Part Two is an episode that suffers from the same problems that the first part did and quite unfortunately the problems are actually worse this time around. Visually, this episode is also not as impressive as the first part mainly occurred during a thunderstorm …
Life Beyond Trek: Leonard Nimoy featurette
This feature, Life Beyond Trek: Leonard Nimoy, is really fascinating. As the title indicates, it delves into Nimoy’s life beyond the famous Star Trek series. In his case, it doesn’t even involve acting. In this wonderful piece, the man shares with viewers his love of photography.
I’ve …
M*A*S*H: Images
Her husband, Charles Frank, has already appeared on this series, and now it’s her turn to guest star. The ‘her’ is Susan Blanchard and the show is M*A*S*H: Images. These two met while working on All My Children years ago, and I always notice them when they …
The Simpsons
The simpsons is a very popular and successful TV show, a cartoon drawn in a very unique style by its creator Matt Groening. The characters are drawn in primary colours like kids doodles and are quite funny to look at. The show itself has a unique character that appeals …

The reason is …
King of the Hill Television show
When I was younger and King of the Hill came on, I would always switch the channel. Something about it always seemed a little too adult for me. The cartoons were neither cartoonish nor did they seem to be having very much fun. There was no laugh track, which, …
That Girl: That Senorita
There’s an odd thing that I noticed in That Girl: That Senorita. It’s the fifth season and while things began to ease up in the fourth season, in this one things are definitely looser in tone and style. It’s a sign of the times in which That …
The Cleveland Show
My family has been watching the show Family Guy for some time now (at least until our 5-year-old started repeating some of the stuff she shouldn’t have and we took a break from it) so we were interested when we learned there was going to be a spin-off starring …

Imedeen Time Perfection Tablets
During my teens and early twenties, I was never bothered about fine lines and wrinkles because I had oily skin and I thought having oily skin means it is also well-moisturized. It turns out I was wrong. As I hit thirty, I noticed that although my skin was still …
Spongebob Squarepants Season One: F.U.N.
Besides the episode Ripped Pants, this episode would have to be my favorite. It showcases Spongebob and Plankton getting along and Spongebob trying to have fun and teach Plankton the meaning of fun. Plankton only wanted to hang out with Spongebob just to try and get the secret formula …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Haunted Submarine TV Show
The 11th episode of its third season on the air, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Haunted Submarine, gives us another same-o, same-o, which I really don’t like. By this I mean that yet again, Richard Basehart plays two roles. He’s Admiral Harriman Nelson as …
I Love Lucy (TV series) - Lucy and Bob Hope (Episode)
“Lucy and Bob Hope” is an episode of “I Love Lucy”. Bob Hope guest stars in one of the series’ most memorable episodes, in my opinion. In this episode, Lucy thinks that Ricky hasn’t been able to get Bob Hope to appear at his club because of her disastrous …
The Young Rebels: The Infiltrator TV Show
Harry Falk directed The Infiltrator episode of The Young Rebels, which was one of my favorite TV series from 1970. I’ve remembered this show my entire life. I can recall stories done on the news about it and even picture a local Sunday TV Guide cover that …
Seven days Season 2 Episode 10
When I watch these old shows I really like to see some actors that I have seen somewhere else, in past or in present. In this episode Roxann Dawson appears, she had roles n different shows back in 90’s but I think that most of us remembers her as …
Boston Legal Season 1 Episode 7
Lori Colson was defending Michael Shea, a man who was indisposed, he was shot in the chest and the police wants to get the bullet out of his chest. Meanwhile, Michael maintains his opposition to the proposal of the police. There was a robbery at a convenience store that …
Adam 12 - Log 45: Bright Boy
I really enjoy elements of Log 45: Bright Boy, a third season entry for the Adam-12 crime drama that aired for several seasons on NBC. There’s some nice banter at the beginning between the first crime segment, and that’s just how I like to see it happen.
My favorite …
That Girl: Rich Little Rich Kid
In That Girl: Rich Little Rich Kid, Sam Melville of The Rookies fame portrays the disgustingly wealthy Roddy Waxman, who takes a shine to Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) and insists on dating her. In fact, to get his point across, he buys out the house for Ann’s play. …
The Simpsons: He Loves to Fly and He Doh’s
That was a cute episode of the Simpson’s last night. I have seen parts of He Loves to Fly and He Doh’s but last night was the first time I have seen the entire episode.
I want to start out by saying I loved the intro to this episode; which …
Stargate: Infinity: Can I Keep It? TV Show
Stargate: Infinity: Can I Keep It? is the animal lovers show, which meant I actually got emotional watching it. Truly, I had tears in my eyes, but again, that’s because I get very emotional over how animals are used in shows, even when they are animated like …

Stargate SG-1: Rite of Passage
Stargate SG-1: Rite of Passage from the fifth season brings back the character of Cassandra, the alien child from season one’s Singularity, who was adopted by Doctor Janet Fraiser. While I love seeing Cassandra in a new episode, the original actress was unavailable and they chose to recast …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Wonderful Death of Dudley Stone TV Show
From August 1989, The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Wonderful Death of Dudley Stone begins with Bradbury’s explanation that the story was spawned from his pondering over how he might respond if someone asked for his writing or his life. I don’t know if this tale is his answer, …
How I Met Your Mother: Woooo!
“Woooo!” is the episode of How I Met Your Mother originally airing on November 17, 2009, on CBS. This was a really solid episode. The actors on this show have really hit their stride as a group. It is just a level down from the chemistry …
Spongebob Squarepants:Bubble Buddy
I finally got to see an episode of Spongebob Squarepants I haven�t seen before; Bubble Buddy. And, I have to admit, it was pretty funny.
This episode features SpongeBob creating an imaginary friend out of his bubbles simply because he has nobody to play with. He then goes around town …

William Katt burst onto the TV scene as The Greatest American Hero. Surviving that, he signed on to play Paul Drake Jr. in new Perry Mason movies, working with his mother, Barbara Hale. He left that gig to star in this political drama called Top of the …
Due South: Seeing Is Believing
Due South: Seeing Is Believing is somewhat interesting. It takes the concept that a thing can happen in front of ten people, and all ten people will see it differently. That’s the story that plays out here. Right before a gift from Canada to America is …
On Demand Television
I opted to purchase On Demand Television in my home. As a result, I have wound up getting four hundred some odd television channels that I thought I would never utilize. I suppose I underestimated the the addictive nature of being spoiled enough to have such a …
Three and a Half Men
I think one of the best television shows of all time is “Three and a Half Men”. In fact I am watching it right now, and it is a rerun I’ve seen before, but I can’t help but laugh out loud. They have absolutely the best writers, and …
Eternal Moonshine of the Simpson Mind
Over the past couple of years, episodes of the Simpsons seemed to be weak at best. It seems that, after all the years the show has been on the air, the writers are starting to run out of stories to tell.
The last episode I saw of this, Eternal Moonshine …
The Jeffersons - Florence’s Problem
The Jeffersons didn’t touch on serious subjects too often like the series it was spin-off from, namely All in the Family, but in the case of this episode, “Florence’s Problem”, it did try to explore a situation that wasn’t entirely comedy-themed, although the writers still manage to give characters …
Family Guy - Padre de Familia
Peter Griffin is the best! And I say this unequivocally…and this is proven in the episode Padre de la Familia, where Peter becomes a part of a pro-American campaign….trying especially to rid the US workforce of non-Americans….He proceeds to visit his mother to obtain a copy of his birth …
The Tonight Show with Jay Leno
The Tonight Show with Jay Leno is hilarious and entertaining. Jay Leno always has great, relevant and up-to-date jokes for every show. The band that performs during the show is also excellent. Another great thing about this show is that there are some pretty neat actors, stars, etc. people …

The Twilight Zone: Long Live Walter Jameson TV Show
The Twilight Zone: Long Live Walter Jameson is one of the shows I really don’t like much. A big part of that is the primary guest star, Kevin McCarthy, who is one of those boring actors in my opinion. I realize he’s done a lot, but for …

Survivor Season 20 Episode 5
This weeks episode was a little off for me. There were a couple of things that didn’t work. For instance the challenges were a bit boring. I have made no secret of the fact I am a fan of the Villains and it seems silly that …
YOUNG SHELDON, series
As a fan of THE BIG BANG THEORY, I couldn’t help but watch its spin-off YOUNG SHELDON.
Honestly, when I found out that the leading roles would be given to children, I had my doubts, but would the series be interesting? After all, children are much harder to play …
That 70s Show: Fez dates Donna
I happened to turn on a re-run of That 70s Show this afternoon; Fez Dates Donna and found it was absolutely hillarious.
This episode had Fez pretending to be Donna’s girlfriend to avoid some former girlfriend who is stalking him. During that time, you have Eric feeling jealous and going …

Project Runway Philippines
I am a great fan of Project Runway, and I have watched all the seasons of the US version. I enjoy the bickering, but I also marvel at the camaraderie that a contest creates with artistic souls. Because I enjoyed this so much, and continue to enjoy it in …
Serial Experiments Lain Episode 1: Weird
This episode is titled “Weird” and boy does it live up to the name. It’s not as imcomprehensible as I thought it would be, but it’s still pretty bizarre.
For the first seven minutes or so we don’t even have a plot, just a seemingly random collection of mini-scenes. …
Beverly Hills 90210
Beverly Hills 90210, the original not to be confused with the 2009 edition was something I watched for years and loved. In fact I was such a fan I watched all nine or so seasons until right up til the end.
I must admit my favourite seasons were the …
CHiPs: Neighborhood Watch
CHiPs: Neighborhood Watch has a variety of interesting little stories that comprise the episode. One that I enjoy a lot involve the mischievous adventures of four neighborhood children, who keep ending up in trouble. They are quite believable in their antics. Robbie Rist, K.C. Martel, Lauri …
Family Guy - It’s A Trap
The title is the prefect explanation of the episode. It’s a Trap and don’t watch it. Seth McFarlane even warns you during the beginning Star Wars credits that this one was not as good as the others. In more ways than one, I would whole heartily agree. It seemed …
