The Dean Martin Comedy Hour: Ralph Nader TV Show
Ralph Nader was all over television back in his heyday, promoting consumer awareness and advocacy. It makes him a decent selection as the honoree as the Man of the Week on The Dean Martin Comedy Hour because he’s easy to make fun of and with.
Unfortunately, I really didn’t …
Kung Fu: The Legend Continues: Pai Gow TV Show
Most of Kung Fu: The Legend Continues: Pai Gow doesn’t impress me as much as most other episodes from the drama do. The series revolves around the reunited father and son, Kwai Chang Caine and Peter Caine, as played by David Carradine and Chris Potter, respectively.
The essence of …
TV Show: Paula-s Home Cooking
Basically, I am still a good old Southern gal at heart and part of my heritage involves the regional cooking I was brought up on.
That’s why I enjoy watching “Paula’s Home Cooking” program, as featured on The Food Network and starring one Ms.Paula Dean.
We no longer live down South, …

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Amphibians, episode 26 from March 1965, guest stars Skip Homeier as Dr. Jenkins, Curt Conway as Dr. Winslow, and Zale Parry as Angie. Now the only reason I know Zale is from watching Sea Hunt, which is currently airing on ThisTV. …

That Girl: Soot Yourself
This episode of That Girl actually had me chuckling and thinking about a little TV movie called Gidget Gets Married. I’ve never associated the Ann Marie character with Gidget Lawrence before but it just popped into my head that this was going to be what Ann and Don …
Alfred Hitchcock Presents: Back for Christmas TV Show
Alfred Hitchcock Presents: Back for Christmas was classic Hitchcock. I pretty much love most all that this series has to offer. They weren’t all winners, but it’s hard not to enjoy something about each offering that came from this ingenious mind.

Sea Hunt: Killer Whale TV Show
Sea Hunt: Killer Whale is not a favorite of mine in that I just don’t like the subject matter. You know going in that what is going to be shown will be disheartening, and there’s bound to be a sorry ending for the whale. It’s the kind …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Odds for Big Red TV Show
Have Gun - Will Travel: Odds for Big Red, the fourth show of season five, gets right to the action, and I question it. It is funny to me that Paladin has a lot of imperfections. Maybe that’s why the show worked. He’s almost an anti-hero, …

The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Wind TV Show
From season three, airing in July 1989, The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Wind was one that I had a hard time focusing on and getting into. It was slow and somewhat boring. What is odd to me is that the topic should have had more punch throughout …
Life Unexpected TV show
“Life Unexpected” is a new TV show on the CW channel. It comes on on Mondays at 8 p.m. central time. I was a little skeptical about this show since it didn’t get much ad time, and although the premise sounded interesting enough I thought it would be another teen …
The View show
The View is a show hosted by four women (five when Barbara Walters is on). These four women, Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Sherri Shepherd and Elisabeth Hasselbeck, have very different opinions and views on many different subjects from raising children, to marriage woes, to political issues.

Star Trek: The Next Generation - Skin of Evil
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Skin of Evil is an enjoyable episode that features a rarity on a Star Trek show: the death of a main character. Now, granted, the only reason this main character died is because the person wanted to leave the show, but the writers …

A Miser’s Brothers’ Christmas
A Miser’s Brothers’ Christmas is a 2008 sequel to 1974’s awesome, “The Year Without a Santa Claus”. Unfortunately, I’m nowhere near as taken with it as I was with the 1974 entry.
While Mickey Rooney returns as the voice of Santa and pulls it off beautifully, I found most …
Tenspeed and Brown Shoe: Diamonds Aren’t Forever TV Show
The final episode of Tenspeed and Brown Shoe was called Diamonds Aren’t Forever. It’s really a shame this show didn’t catch on because both Ben Vereen and Jeff Goldblum were amazing to watch. The show was clever and witty, and while there was some ham and camp …

EastEnders tv show

The TV show prison break
The TV show prison break was an awesome show and it is a shame that it is not on the air anymore with new episodes. The show was simple to understand and the title explains what the whole show was based on and I couldn’t believe that they …
American Idiol
I started watching American Idol in their first season because I loved to hear people sing. I thought a show that would give the opportunity to an amazing singer, who might not have a chance of otherwise being discovered, was an excellent idea. I loved watching it every …
Kim Kardashian on Dancing With the Stars
Ok. I’m a sucker. I watch anything with Kim Kardashian on it. I think she’s perfect for the show; you can tell that she has no dance experience. I hope she is kept on the show by viewers so we can see how much she has improved. I think …
Scrubs - TV Show - E4
If you are yet to watch the t.v sitcom Scrubs, then in my opinion you are really missing out. It was a show that took me ages to get round to making time for, but sometimes you have to sit down with shows like this and just give it …

M*A*S*H: Of Moose and Men
There’s something I really notice about M*A*S*H: Of Moose and Men, and it’s something that applies to season four in its entirety thus far. It’s the Frank Burns character. Larry Linville plays the part so well. It’s not all that easy to play an idiot. …
Laramie: The Last Journey TV Show
Rod Cameron appeared in numerous episodes of the Laramie TV western, and most all were memorable outings. In this one, called The Last Journey, he plays John Cole. He’s just been released from prison, and when he shows up with a shot marshal, Slim Sherman (John Smith) …
Dawson’s Creek

Goin Bulilit
I have always loved watching funny shows; I think it is a good stress buster. In the Philippines, gag shows and funny shows, and even sitcoms have become really few these days; mostly people have concentrated on getting Korean novellas, and foreign shows. If not, locally produced shows are …
“Pawn Stars” (tv series)
A couple of months ago, I was sitting in my living room with my family. There was absolutely nothing on tv and after doing some channel surfing, we stopped on a program called “Pawn Stars”. I had never seen this show before, but since that day …
Gilligan’s Island - Waiting for Watubi TV show
This episode stinks in my opinion. I don’t like watching it since there is too much strife and witchcraft tendencies. Skipper believes all the curse superstition associated with witchdoctors and tiki idols. Waiting for Watubi is full of hardship on the Skippers part and we have to watch …
Prison Break Season 1 Episode 16- Brother’s Keeper
This episode is a bit different from the rest. There are no new points to the story. Instead the entire episode is used as a flashback on the events that had lead to the beginning of the series. It tells the stories of the dominant characters in the story …

House: Broken
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 …

My Generation: Pilot TV Show
The pilot for the new series, My Generation, takes a look at the class of 2000, beginning with a video yearbook opening. This was somewhat attention getting as it still has the usual characters for high school and colleges, like the beauty queen and the jock.
However, the show …
Grey’s Anatomy Season 6 Episode 16
After watching a bunch of not so great episodes of Grey’s it was nice to see one that had a good vibe to it. Funny, light hearted and warm and this was that episode, well up until the end anyway where it got sad.
What was cool about this …
The Real Ghostbusters: Season 1, Episode 15: Station Identification
The Ghostbusters find themselves bored as there hasn’t been any business for three weeks. It’s kind of weird how one episode has them exhausted from too much work, and then the next episode, they’re upset that there aren’t any new clients. I guess it’s the nature of …
