Hunter x Hunter (tv series)
I tend to like watching certain genres of Japanese animation especially if I feel that they have a very interesting plot and characters, but for some reason I find many of those hard to encounter these days, especially when it comes to new anime. Therefore, what I did was …
Sea Hunt: Confidential Mission TV Show
For me, the best shows from the underwater adventure series, Sea Hunt, are those that deal with the ocean and the sea life within it. I love the shows that show this life and those that deal with technology. Unfortunately, the show often takes a cloak and …
Royal Palm Estate
“Royal Palm Estate” was a Jamaican soap opera from the nineties which used to be aired on Sunday evenings on the local channel CVM. I became a very big fan of the television series even though I was still too young to be watching those things. However, since there …

Home Improvement TV Episode: He Ain’t Heavy, He’s Irresponsible
Well, I had time to watch TV again at lunch today and sat down to watch a re-run of Home Improvement I remember seeing a while ago but didn’t remember much about.
This one, entitled He Ain’t Heavy, He’s Irresponsible, has Tim’s brother revealing that he is thinking about leaving …
Project Runway: Finale Part 2 TV Show
The second part of the finale for this season’s edition of Project Runway was both boring and exciting. It entertained and blahed. The reason? Well, in my opinion, I think it had too much time allotted to it. It was a full 2 hours and just …
Centennial: The Yellow Apron

Star Trek: Amok Time TV Show

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Welcome to the Hell Mouth
My wife and I recently decided to try watching the old Buffy the Vampire Slayer series on DVD from start to finish; starting with the first episode “Welcome to the Hell Mouth.”

The story-line on this …
The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: High Treason: Part 2
It’s the final ride for Bruce Campbell, Julius Carry, and Christian Clemenson as The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: High Treason: Part 2 concludes the single season run of this series. A mix of adventure, science fiction, action, drama, romance, and just about everything else, this TV program …
Ghost Whisperer the TV Series
I have always found the appeal of Ghost Whisperer puzzling. The fifth season will premier on September 25, 2009. Melinda Gordon (Jennifer Love Hewitt) has the ability to see and talk to ghosts, and she uses this ability to bring closure to the ghosts so that they will cross …
Saw IV
Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much from this installment of the Saw series. I mean, a fourth? What were they thinking? There’s only so much you can do with this story line!
Pleasantly surprised, I found out I was wrong. This is actually my favorite of all …
Doctor Who: Season 3, Episode 12: Utopia
So we come to the first part in the three part season finale. While the season was mostly stand-alone episodes with the “Saxon” arc only getting brief mention, this still manages to be a culmination of everything that’s happened so far.
Team TARDIS finds themselves landing on Earth in …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Reptile Boy
Sometimes lost in the science fiction element of the series Buffy the Vampire Slayer is the ocassional message about being safe in an awkward situation. The episode Reptile Boy is one of them.
Along with the whole cult that worships snake man thing at the local university frat house, you …
Have Gun - Will Travel: A Head of Hair TV Show
From season four, Have Gun - Will Travel: A Head of Hair deals with Paladin, a kidnapped white woman, a Sioux guide, and the dangerous Nez Perce Indians. I have issues with this episode, though parts of it are also very good.
It opens with gayly when Paladin …
Dancing with the Stars - Final Performance Show - 5/24/2010
My problem in the last few years with Dancing with the Stars is that the judges have favorites and they push for them. It’s a bit of selective visuals.
Here’s my current case in point. The last free dance performance of the night was Derek Hough and celebrity …
TV Doctor Who - The Time Warrior

QVC
Oh my. I am only in my late 20s but I am already addicted to this channel. My mom started watching it after dad died, and I got hooked. I love watching all of the stuff about makeup and how to put it on. I love when Bare Minerals …
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Protege
There’s some drama for sure in Have Gun - Will Travel: The Protégé when Richard Boone’s Paladin teaches Peter Breck’s Kurt Sprague in gun use and etiquette. It’s so weird to see Breck playing this kind of role. He was all decked out in a proper city …
Buck Rogers - Planet of the Slave Girls
The first episodes of the Buck Rogers television series feature two top notch guest stars: Roddy McDowell in a minor role and Jack Palance in an OUTRAGEOUSLY campy appearance as a villain who has the power of mind control and is selling people into intergalactic slavery. This episode drags …

Highway Patrol: The Search TV Show
The first story of the second season of Highway Patrol was called The Search and aired in October 1956. It’s a pretty basic story, I’m afraid. It’s all about a murderer who is trying to avoid capture. He’s a charming sort and manages to get people …
Christmas with the Stars
After watching what is obviously an older TV event called Christmas with the Stars, I did some research and it seems that this is probably an edited version of another holiday programming from years ago. It’s really odd how the show is altered and renamed. It must …
Star Trek: Voyager - Child’s Play
Star Trek: Voyager - “Child’s Play” is an episode that I like to a degree, but have certain problems with. In this episode, Voyager succeeds in locating Icheb’s parents and sets a course for the planet. Icheb is not happy to hear the news as he has come to …
Naruto Episode 32 Subbed
This episode has some action in it, but not a lot, and it certainly is not very exciting. Despite the fact that we have seen very little of Rock Lee in the previous episodes, everything we have seen points at him as being quite powerful, but he is nothing …
Trading Spouses
I find the TV reality show Trading Spouses truly awesome. Actually, I have a very bad impression of the show when I initially started watching, but after some time, I’ve gotten the message of the show and noticing how some families featured are indeed having a bigger problem issue …
M*A*S*H: The Merchant of Korea
I enjoy watching M*A*S*H: The Merchant of Korea. It’s a fun show that is prompted by a letter to B.J. Hunnicutt (Mike Farrell) from his wife, telling him that land they’d always wanted is available for sale. She just needs him to send her $200. …
The Fugitive: The Iron Maiden
The first thing I noticed when I watched The Fugitive: The Iron Maiden again was that it guest starred Richard Anderson. Anderson was one of TV’s most used actors from the 60’s to the 80’s. He was on absolutely everything at one point at another, and like …
Adam-12: Log 164: The Poachers
As the third season of Jack Webb’s Adam-12 continues, we get a decent episode entitled Log 164: The Poachers which includes the recurring character of Officer Ed Wells, played to perfection by Gary Crosby. As always, the show stars Martin Milner and Kent McCord as the veteran and …
Private Eye: Light and Shadows TV show
Private Eye: Light and Shadows begins with a black female loan officer hiring Jack Cleary (Michael Woods) to protect her. She’s being followed and claims not to know why. The woman is Helen Burke, played strongly and capably by Lisa Wilkinson. What is funny to me …
Ghost Hunters: OK Corral
Well, after the disappointment I had from the Tombstone episode of Ghost Hunters, I have to admit I wasn’t overly thrilled about the next episode “OK Corral.” But, at least they had a bit more evidence than they did when they visited the Bird Cage theater in the …
King of the Lost World
I have no idea why I decided to watch King of the Lost World on the Science Fiction channel last night, probably because there wasn’t much on. However, I have to say it was one of the stupidest movies I’ve ever seen.
When I watched King of the Lost World, …
Highway Patrol: Gambling TV Show
I am thoroughly enjoying the opportunity that the ThisTV channel is bringing to its viewers by presenting some classic television shows such as this one, Highway Patrol. It’s been so long since I’ve seen these, and they are a delight to watch again. It’s not that it …
Numb3rs season 6 episode 7 Men out
This episode was a masterpiece but the idea of people playing Russian Roulette while other betting on who dies first is not only scary and terrible but disgusting too.
Don’s team has to investigate suicides of many man and they realise that something is wrong and that the suicides aren’t …
The Twilight Zone: The Hunt TV Show
For some reason, I always tend to forget what this show is about when it comes on TV. I have this idea of it in my mind and I turn it off, so I was surprised by it when I recently did view the entire program again. …

The Fairy Jobmother TV show
I was flipping through channels and came across the show “The Fairy Jobmother”. I had never heard about the show previously and I thought it was a creative title, so I gave it a try. The show was a professional who helped people who had been hurt …
Nanny 911
I can’t help it; I’m obsessed with this TV show every time I end up finding out that it’s on. I guess maybe I’m ‘taking notes’ for the day when my fiance and I have kids and if they’re unruly and whatnot. I like the way the nannies deal …
Justice League Unlimited: the Doomsday Sanction
Typically “Justice League Unlimited” focused on the less famous members of the Justice league and that is good. It adds depth to the D.C. universe which isn’t in most cartoons because they need to focus on a few characters.
The second thing it does is serve as a contrast to …
Friends Season Nine - The one with the male nanny
This season nine episode is by far my favorite Friends episode of all time. I think I have seen this particular episode over one hundred times, and I still laugh every time I see it. Shortly after Emma is born Rachel has to go back to work so they …
