Stargate SG-1: Fail Safe
Another crazy idea, but an entertaining episode is how I’d describe Stargate SG-1: Fail Safe from season five. The team is together for the entire episode, and that’s something I treasure.
Basically, Stargate SG-1: Fail Safe is the movie Armageddon. SG-1 works fast to try and deflect an …
The Jay Leno Show (the new one)
Has anyone else noticed that the new Jay Leno show is a lame version of his former show? I am not sure why, because he still manages to get great guests ( Kanye after the MTV awards debacle, Robin Williams and Halle Berry, just to name a few). But …
Living Single show
Sometimes when I watch television, which is rare now of days when I have the internet for that, I like to see shows that they just don’t put on TV anymore. Living Single is definitely one of those shows that makes me feel nostalgic, like I just wish there …
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Samaritan Snare
The second season episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, titled “Samaritan Snare” has a few comical moments to it, but ultimately, the episode is a real mess. By mess, I mean the story is pretty weak and implausible and even boring. In this episode, the Enterprise answers a …
TV show The Office
The Office is my favorite show on network television. The entire case is great! At first, I thought that Steve Carell just dominated the series with his portrayal of the bumbling office manager Michael Scott. Carell’s sense of comic timing is superb. Most all the …
Gordon Ramsey’s Kitchen Nightmares
Even though Gordon Ramsey can be a bit abrasive, I love watching this show since it gives an in depth look at the other side of operating a restaurant business. Sometimes I do find the owners featured on this show to be funny because of their naivete, but …
Time Warner Cable
Time Warner Cable is for New Yorkers what Comcast is for people in the DC area. They seem to have a monopoly despite what other companies have to offer. I happen to like Time Warner more than some of their competitors, mostly because they have some of the best …
Spongebob Squarepants: The Strangler
I saw a Spongebob Squarepants episode yesterday I haven’t seen in a while “The Strangler” and found it to be as funny as I remembered it being.
If you haven’t seen this show and wonder why it is so popular, I suggest watching this episode. Spongebob turns in an infamous …
The Dean Martin Comedy Hour: Barry Goldwater TV Show
As surprising as it may seem, Republican Senator Barry Goldwater appeared multiple times on roasting editions of The Dean Martin Comedy Hour , socking it to different entertainers. On this particular evening, the Arizona senator was on the receiving end of the barbs. Naturally, the political jokes …
Criminal Minds Season 1 Episode 17 A Real Rain
That is a good example for a well written episode and many people would agree with it. In this episode the BAU team travels to New York to help solve a case of a serial killer who does not go after the same type of victim. It is unusual for …
Psych: Speak Now or Forever hold your Piece
My all-day Psych marathon today resulted in me seeing an episode I haven’t seen before (and I thought I saw every episode of this show so far); Speak Now or Forever Hold Your Piece.
This was a great episode too. Shawn and Gus end up being invited to a fancy …
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 …
Sea Hunt: Midget Submarine TV Show
Sea Hunt: Midget Submarine brought to mind memories of watching an old favorite show of mine, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea. Now potentially the idea for the flying submarine could have come from Sea Hunt’s use of this midget submarine since this show predates Voyage. …
Warehouse 13 season 1 episode 3 Magnetism
Myka and Pete are two secret service agents, they work for the government project called Warehouse 13 which is actually a warehouse where artefacts that can effect people’s behaviour.
In a small town called Unionville people started behaving strange, they start acting they way they really want, without string or …
Cowboy Bebop Episode 23 (Anime)
Cowboy Bebop Episode 23 has Spike, Jet, Ed and Faye all after the leader of a strange cult after its members start committing suicide.
This was one of the weirdest episodes of the entire anime. It’s visually interesting but I got a little dizzy because the images were …
The 36th Annual People’s Choice Awards
There was a time when I wouldn’t miss this awards show, but as Hollywood changed and what America watched changed, I lost interest. It never got as bad as the American Music Awards, but it came close sometimes. The thing about this particular awards show is that …
Diagnosis Murder: My Four Husbands TV Show
I always thought Diagnosis Murder: My Four Husbands was somewhat funny. It features Morgan Fairchild as actress Pamela Dorn, who has a TV series where she portrays the ‘Queen of the Jungle’. To Mark Sloan (Dick Van Dyke), though, she’s Pammie and he’s Uncle Mark.
One of the …
That 70s Show TV Episode: Surprise, Surprise
I missed the first couple minutes of the That 70s Show episode entitled Surprise, Surprise. But, even with missing the first part of it, I saw enough to know this was a pretty funny episode.
Basically, there are two main stories in this episode. First, Kelso ends up sleeping with …
It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia
It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia airs on FX, and is not a show for the faint of heart. If you’re easily offended by shows like South Park, you’ll find this show to be atrocious. Yes, this show is more offensive than South Park. The humor is …
One Tree Hill
I never saw the original run of One Tree Hill when everyone was in high school. I only saw two episodes of the show when they in high school the rest I have seen in flashback from the shows current run. I didn’t actually begin to watch One Tree …
Those Scurvy Rascals
British series cartoon animation titled Those Scurvy Rascals is something that I always am able to catch in Kids Central Channel, in my country. It is so darn funny and these pirates are really getting on my funny nerves. My nieces and nephews all love this cartoon as …
Glee TV show
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 …
Have Gun —“ Will Travel: The Hunt TV Show
This episode of Have Gun —“ Will Travel, the 20th of its fifth season on the air, is done almost as a comedy, though it has several very un-funny moments, one of which is an animal attack. Those are never my favorite scenes and I was glad this …
Scrubs Season Four - My Old Friend’s New Friend
This episode is not one of my favorites. It introduces Dr. Molly Clock, she is a psychiatrist. J.D. has the hots for her, and he quickly realizes she is annoying. Turk and Carla return home from their honeymoon, and when Turk returns it seems he …
Batman: The Brave and the Bold: Fall of the Blue Beetle!
The intro teams Batman up with the Blue Beetle, not Jaime but Ted Kord. They’re exploring some undefined hideout. The banter between the two was well done, discussing the drawbacks of various gadgets and how no one appreciates the brains behind it all.
The episode opens …
Family Guy 10-1: Lottery Fever
As the Family Guy Season 9 ended, I didn’t really have high hopes for the future of Family Guy. I wanted to be hopeful because I really like the series and want to see it be what it once was. FUNNY!!! But those hopes and dreams of actually enjoying …
Swift Justice with Nancy Grace TV Series
Swift Justice with Nancy Grace: what a ridiculous excuse for Nancy Grace to get more air time. That’s the word that keeps coming to mind — ridiculous.
With her crumpled nose, Grace wears the same outfit, a black and white combination pant suit, as she bulldogs her way around …
To Boldly Go … Season Two featurette
To Boldly Go … Season Two featurette includes some great comments about some of the classic episodes which aired during the second season of Star Trek. This includes the wonderful and most popular episode, The Trouble with Tribbles, which just about everyone calls the one and only comedy …
The Simpsons: Dial N for Nerder
Well, I got to see a later Simpsons episode that wasn’t too badly written; “Dial N for Nerder” and I have to say it had a pretty good plot.
You have two basic storylines going on. First, you have Bart playing a prank on Martin that causes him to fall …
The Six Napoleons
I am reviewing The Six Napoleons, a Sherlock Holmes episode from the boxed set, The Adventure of Sherlock HOlmes, which was produced in 1984 by Granada television. This episode finds Sherlock Holmes assisting Lestrade in a most bizarre mystery. Some mad man keeps destroying the last remaining six Napoleon …
Sea Hunt: Capture of the Santa Rosa TV Show
Sea Hunt: Capture of the Santa Rosa aired in July 1958. It’s a story that evolves around Mike Nelson (Lloyd Bridges) assisting with the rescue of a Latin American diplomat who has been kidnapped along with his wife. The two are being held on a boat called …
Scrubs TV Episode: My Day at the Races
As I mentioned before, I started watching re-runs of the show Scrubs on TV whenever I get a chance (and there’s nothing better on). One of the episodes I ended up watching Sunday was entitled “My Day at the Races.”
This one was actually pretty good. JD is turning 30 …
Ghosthunters Television Series
Ever since I saw the first Ghosthunters episode advertising on the cable television channel, Syfy, I have been hooked to the show ever since. Somehow I think that it seems to be a little more realistic than other shows about the paranormal on television such as “Most Haunted”, “Paranormal …
Project Runway Season Five Episode 9
Season Five Episode 9
What’s Your Sign?
Francisco Costa Guest Judge
In this episode, the designers get a blast from the past.
After the usual model elimination, Heidi tells the remaining designers she has special guests waiting for them and when they appear from behind the silhouette screen, it is the designers who …
Stargate: Infinity: The Mother of Invention TV Show
Stargate: Infinity: The Mother of Invention has Ec’co falling for the survivor of a devastated world. Ec’co’s mostly been cast as the half breed having to deal with prejudice, but here he gets a chance to show there’s a bit more to his animated being.
Voiced by Moneca Stori, …
Monk TV Episode: Mr. Monk and the Naked Man
One of our channels had a mini Monk marathon on yesterday morning and, while our daughter was napping, I had an opportunity to watch some of it.
One of the episodes, Mr. Monk and the Naked Man, was pretty funny.
Basically, there is a murder on a clothing optional beach (which …
Stargate SG-1: Ascension
Stargate SG-1: Ascension is a bit of a different episode in that we get to see some SG-1 at home, specifically Amanda Tapping’s character of Sam. What’s really nice about this is that Tapping wanted to salute her fans, who had sent her many gifts over the past …
Medium: The Match Game TV Show
Medium: The Match Game stars Patricia Arquette as the psychic Allison Dubois. She sees symbols on people’s foreheads and if they match, they are soulmates. She’s also working on finding a serial killer at a park.
Jake Weber portrays Allison’s husband, Joe Dubois. He deals with harassment …
Everybody Loves Raymond
I’m so sorry that Everybody Loves Raymond is no longer in production, but fortunately, we can see it in reruns practically every day of the week. The show never fails to make me laugh.
I think what is unusual about this show is that its humor is not really …
Life on Mars season 1 episode 7 The Man Who Sold the World
This was a very exciting episode, where we and Sam learn much about his childhood. Sam is this man who had an accident in 2008 and woke up in 1973. He has many unresolved issues from his childhood and somehow now in 1973 he manages to find out stuff …
Tom&Jerry Episode: Posse Cat
This episode of Tom and Jerry starts off with Tom being a lazy cat in the old west. His owner tempts him with a plate of food by rinigng the dinner bell and filling his plate up and then tells him to catch Jerry the mouse who is stealing …
The Starter Wife
I’ve seen plenty of ads for the show The Starter Wife and I’ve always been a big Debra Messing fan. But, last night was the first opportunity I’ve had to actually sit down and watch the show.
After finally doing so, I have to say it was good but not …
Friends Episode: Rachel Has A Baby
Friends Episode: Rachel Has A Baby is a very cute and funny one. I like it very much and especially when the 4 friends, minus Ross, since he is in with Rachel and giving motivation to deliver the baby. So back to the story and the 4 of …
Rob and Big MTV show
The other day I was watching mtv and this show came on. I watched a couple episodes of it. It’s a lot better than I thought it was going to be. I just kind of ended up watching it because I was bored. Now I watch it whenever I …
Simpsons - Treehouse of Horror XXI
I have always loved the Treehouse of horror episodes of Simpsons, even if some of them are a little beyond my liking. There are always three stories to watch and hope that one of them is funny. The whole beginning is with Professor Frink warning people about the episode, …
Medium: Means and Ends TV Show
Medium: Means and Ends was not a favorite outing for this series. It seems to me that this year has been very hit and miss. The show was barely renewed for this season, and I fear this could very well be the last if things don’t pick …
Jeremiah: Red Kiss
Jeremiah: Red Kiss aired in April, but it probably should have been a Halloween episode with all its emphasis on potential vampires.
In this episode, Jeremiah (Luke Perry) and Kurdy (Malcolm-Jamal Warner) come across an encampment where children are being kidnapped. Though the people are skeptical of the two …
Adam-12: Log 46: Pilgrimage
During its run, Adam-12 did a few Christmas episodes, and what I love about these shows is that they are all different in style and tone. I’ve always applauded the powers that be ability to acknowledge the holiday season and do it not only in an entertaining fashion …
Stargate SG-1: Dominion
Dominion is the second to the last episode of Stargate SG-1 and frankly, it bored me stiff. I don’t like the Ori, don’t care about Adria, don’t like Ba’al, and am just extremely frustrated by Daniel not being Daniel, not to mention all the times he’s been put …
Models of the Runway: Frenemies
So much for a modeling competition without major drama. This week’s episode starts out where last week’s ended; two models at each others throats because one overreacted when she lost her designer and another one over reacted when the first one got mad at her for not keeping her …
