Ariel is perhaps the best episode of Firefly, and that is saying a lot. Joss Whedon’s characterization is in top form during this episode. He’s been hinting since the pilot that the only thing that Jayne is really loyal to is money. This episode brings that …

Whatever with Alexis and Jennifer’s second show was on September 14, 2010, and I must say these two women need an infusion of energy and personality. They did at least welcome the viewers this time before entering into their boring interaction. Not only that, but Alexis showed …

At the opening of John Doe: Doe Re: Me, the amnesiac John Doe actually tries psycho therapy to find out something about his past. I liked this segment and especially how it ended, which I won’t spoil. I thought it was a marvelous sign of the time …

In Performance at the White House: Paul McCartney aired on PBS and it surrounded Sir Paul McCartney being awarded The Gershwin Prize for Lifetime Achievement in song writing for popular music. It’s a prestigious award and an honor McCartney takes quite seriously. Following are some observations about …

The average fan of “Weeds,” tangled in the murky abyss of a dyspeptic and almost certainly unnecessary sixth season of the Showtime dramedy, will feel about a trillion miles away from everything/anything that made the show enjoyable to begin with. But this is OK, …

Dancing with the Stars debuted a new season on September 21, 2009 with more celebrities than ever. Twenty, yes, twenty stars are included in this season’s show. The season premier is stretching over three nights. Tonight the focus was on the men.

I love stories about the past and mysteries in general so I tend to be thrilled when the two genres combine. That is what attracted me to a television series such as “Mysteries at the Museum”. I’m able to watch a series that reveals the secrets behind certain relics I …

“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 …

Beast Wars - The Low Road is the most comical episode of the entire series! There are many moments here that are just laugh-out loud hilarious. In this episode, Rhinox is infected with a Predicon virus that will kill him if the Maximals cannot locate the antidote within a …

I find Dunkin Donuts new television commercial, which keeps referencing the word “coffee” with customrs making the italics symbol with their hands, to be highly annoying. Yes, America may in all actuality run on Dunkin, but I think that with a cute and catchy phrase like that, they …

I can’t say that I’m a big fan of That Girl: Great Guy. It’s a show that aired towards the end of the second season and featured Ruth Buzzi, who has a recurring role as Margie ‘Pete’ Peterson. Buzzi is a talented comedienne, but this role really …

Outside of the upcoming Blood Brothers episode which I consider to be tops all the way around, M*A*S*H: Bless You Hawkeye is the best of the ninth season. It’s a show that starts out in an unsuspecting style with Hawkeye Pierce waking up in the middle of the …

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Blizzard Makers is the 13th episode from year one of this outstanding program. It opens with a new style, using newspapers to communicate what’s been happening, which is a lot of unusual weather, like blizzards in Florida. I do …

I watched Weeds Season One on DVD again last week. I was home alone, and the house was so quiet, I found myself seeking a dvd to keep me company.
As I riffled through the possibiltites I found Weeds season 1 and I threw it in the dvd player.
I was …

When I was in college, Seinfeld was the show to watch. But, while I did watch it, and still do on occasion (re-runs), I was never a person who obsessed over it.
Some episodes of Seinfeld are really funny. And, episodes like �The Contest� or the �Soup Nazi� are very …

The seventh season of Curb picks up pace and marks a vast improvement on the first episode with a largely functional episode designed to oust the Black family and level the playing field for the rest of the season.
While I’ve enjoyed the Black family; it’s about time they step …

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 …

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 …

M*A*S*H: Guerilla My Dreams is a pretty intense episode which is also somewhat controversial in how it is played out. Alan Alda, who stars as Hawkeye Pierce, directed this intense episode. The show does include another cameo from Gary Burghoff as Radar O’Reilly. Burghoff has special …

This second episode of Fame has always been one I’ve enjoyed watching, primarily because of the last scene. From 1982, Fame: Passing Grade has the teacher and the pupil both vying for the same part in a Broadway show. Of course, it’s against the rules for a …

The Lifetime Television movie “Write & Wrong” is a courageous examination of aging in a medium that is perpetually young. Byrdie is an oscar-nominated who is told that her characters are too old and her themes are too stale for the 18-28 crowd that the new (read almost fetal) …

In That Girl: To Each Her Own, the theme is all about computer dating, something that was fairly new at the time. Even though this has been around for decades now, the interest in how it works and the role it has on our society is still relevant, …

M*A*S*H: Dreams is an intensely offbeat show which is directed by series star Alan Alda. The directing is great, with neat segue ways from dream to reality, and vice versa.
The 4077th ends up handling 211 patients in a 33 hour period, only to have more brought in after …

Prison Break Season 2 Episode 11- Bolshoi Booze
Just like any other episode on the show it was absolutely great. The show has some of the best writing seen on TV. They really know how to build the tension and the drama. And the casting is amazing as …

There wasn’t much on TV last night so I ended up watching a re-run of Law & Order SVU on NBC called Penetration.
This wasn’t the first time I have seen this episode. I watched bits and pieces of it when it first aired but really wasn’t all that interested …

Afro Samurai Episode 5 begins with the final battle between Afro and Justice.
This was a great ending to Afro Samurai. It had plenty of action, the swordfight was amazing and everything wrapped itself up while still leaving the possibility of a sequel open.
The voice acting …

The Munsters - My Fair Munster is a hilarious episode of The Munsters that I always laugh at no matter my mood. Part of what makes this episode so hilarious is the technique that those responsible for the show employ and the technique I am referring to is when …

No wonder there are a lot of hype surrounding the popular hot new TV show, Ugly Betty. Everybody loves Ugly Betty, even those who can’t understand English do. This is proven, as the show even has translations into several languages across different countries.
Perhaps it’s because everybody could …

This was a definite improvement over the pilot. In this episode, they introduced all the writers, and while many of them feel like stereotypes that is the nature of new characters on TV it seems. You have to give people something to hang onto immediately and they all tend …

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 …

Zuko and crew continue to look for Aang, employing the bounty hunter that Zuko used back in season 1. Even her mole can’t get a trace on him. According to June, Aang no longer exists.

Code Geass Episode 3 begins with Lelouch confronting Clovis about his brother’s murder and killing him. Afterwards he investigates Kallen, the girl he saw the terrorists in Shinjuku.

I don’t get to watch the show Cold Case too often. But, when I do get to watch it, I re-confirm it is actually one of my favorite shows.
I like most crime dramas. However, the thing I like about Cold Case is the fact the detectives are dealing with …

The Twilight Zone: The Lonely is one of the classic episodes of this series. I thoroughly enjoy it each and every time I see it. It’s the concept that makes it intriguing. Jack Warden is a convict, sentenced to live the rest of his life on …

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.
The story begins in England with a …

Rescue Me is a phenomenal television program, expertly melding the genres of comedy, drama, and brief snippets of action into a seething, emotionally driven and, at times, flat out hilarious portrayal of life for New York City firefighters, especially in the midst of the tragedies of 9/11. Actor/ Comedian …

One afternoon, a couple of months ago, I was bored and was switching channels on my television. I came across a MONK marathon on USA channel. So I watched one episode and then the next, and then the next. Before I knew it I was hooked on it. …

Prison Break Season 3 Episode 2- Fire/Water
The story continues as Michael tries to figure his way out in the Sona prison. Lincoln’s character is now taking a more active role in the series. I guess that makes sense, since he is on the outside. It’s too bad they made …

The episode starts with Tyra giving a highlight of the past seasons. These include the plus size models they have, the cat fights of the girls, the emotional make-overs, the past winners and hilarious moments.
Then the 10th cycle contestants were introduced. They were asked to go to this …

I got hooked watching this TV channel the first time we got our cable installed at home. Being a food fanatic and a trying hard cook, I enjoyed watching the different segments. There is always something new to learn especially when it comes to recipe ideas, food preparation, and …
