Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Killed by Death
If you’re looking for something creepy to watch and don’t necessarily want to watch a movie, I would really recommend seeing the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode “Killed by Death.”
Hospitals, in my opinion, are creepy enough. But, what if you had some sort of invisible demon walking the halls …
Tosh.0 tv show
After trying to watch Tosh.0 quite a few times, I am still truly baffled as to how this guy who hosts it got his own show. Now, I have absolutely nothing against the comedian who hosts it, but I remember when the first season premiere was advertising I thought …
The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: Wild Card
In The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: Wild Card, Brisco and Bowler hit Reno, the coming thing, electric lights and all. It’s gambling, all glitzed up. You don’t normally see that on a western.
This show also brings up another Cousins, as in Dolly (Elaine Hendrix). I …
Voyagers!: Merry Christmas, Bogg
Honestly, I’d forgotten just how much Meeno Peluce cried during the Voyagers! series. He could compete with Doris Day, June Allyson, and Margaret O’Brien for being able to turn those tears on and off. It’s amazing. However, it’s not the best crier. He’s just able to …
Inspector Gadget (TV Show) - The Curse of the Pharaoh (Episode)

Boris Karloff did his amazing introduction and exodus of Thriller: Waxworks from the second year of the anthology show. The show revolved around Jacquelin’s Wax Works which is an exhibit of wax figures of famous murderers. The Twilight Zone may have gotten its idea for a Martin …
A Taste for Death - Part 3
There were a few good moments in A Taste for Death - Part 3 as Inspector Adam Dalgliesh (Roy Marsden) continued to try and solve the circumstances surrounding the death of Sir Paul Berowne, who had died in a church.
The most fun portion was a scene in Dalgliesh’s office …
What a Night for a Knight
I got my daughter the first five episodes of Scooby Doo Where Are You through Netflix and the very first one, What a Night for a Knight still has to be one of the better episodes in the series.
I’ve seen this one a couple times and never realized it …
Venture Bros: Pinstripes and Poltergeists
This episode brings 24 back, still in ghost form and guiding 21. 21’s really become a competent character. For most of the season, the joke was that he thought he had, as the trope says, taken a level in badass, but it turns out it’s starting to …
Dancing with the Stars: 200th Episode TV Show
The 11th season of Dancing with the Stars continued with its seventh week of competition also being a celebration of its 200th episode. The underdog series took a while to catch on, but now it’s a staple on TV despite annual criticism over its B-level stars, celebrities, or …

Family Matters the TV show
The show family matters was a good show and I use to love watching it all the time when it was on the air. I love how the characters on the show were just average people; working average jobs but quite often dealt with major problems and this show …
Stargate SG-1: Line in the Sand
Stargate SG-1: Line in the Sand bugged me in some ways, but then again, that is the norm for season ten episodes. This is the third episode without Michael Shanks. In the show, no one knows what has happened to Daniel for sure. Is he alive …
Dancing with the Stars - 9-22-09
As the three-night premier of this season’s Dancing with the Stars continued, it was the ladies who were center stage. There were two ‘wow’ performers for me, and both of them shocked me.
The first was Mya. Now, honestly, I don’t even know who she is. Apparently, …
Super Mario World - Mama Luigi
Super Mario World - “Mama Luigi” is the last episode of this short, thirteen episode series. I have to wonder if the writers and producers were aware of this, because this episode seems awfully appropriate for a final episode. I say that because it actually tells of the story …
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast: Dennis Weaver TV Show
Taped in Las Vegas, the problem with most episodes of The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast is that they are more an NBC showcase than anything else. Initially, there were some really good ones that are what a roast should be, a person being teased by friends and co-workers. …
The Andy Griffith Show: The Christmas Story
From the first season, The Andy Griffith Show: The Christmas Story is a show I must watch every year at least three or four times. I love it that much, and it just isn’t Christmas without seeing this wonderful episode of this down home comedy show.
Andy Griffith and …
Law and Order Special Victims Unit (Bad Blood) Episode
I thought this episode of Law and Order SVU was a little bit more than interesting. It was also educational in my eyes, as before watching it, I was not aware that some psychiatrists thought that sometimes bad behaviour and qualities were genetic. Nevertheless, despite watching the episode which …
The Two Coreys
When I was a child I loved Corey Haim and Corey Feldman. They were absolutly wonderful and complimented each other very well in the movies that they played in together. So what happened. I tuned in to watch the new show the two Coreys. Not only was it extremly …
Wagon Train: A Man Called Horse

Stargate: Infinity: Feet of Clay TV Show
This piece of animated drama, Stargate: Infinity: Feet of Clay, once again involves Major Gus Bonner’s number one nemesis, the Tlak’kahns. I seldom mention their name because it’s a pain to remember to spell, but I figured I’d use their name in at least one of the 26 …

From September 2008, Stargate Atlantis: Whispers, episode 7 of season 5, again brings back the delightful character of Dr. Carson Beckett, played by Paul McGillion. They also have something new, an all female SG team. Now that’s a first.

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 …

CSI New York Season 4 Episode 21
The beginning of the episode immediately grabbed my attention. It was just so unusual, I have not seen a setting like this used before. There are many shows where a team needs to examine the evidence without access to the lab or in an enclosed environment. But to be …
Dexter Season 6 Episode 7: Nebraska
I so loved Dexter Season 6 episode 7 titled “Nebraska”. As his dear friend Brother Sam passed on, Dexter (Michael C Hall) has seemed to lost the light that he found. This time, his Dark Passenger, in the form of his late brother (The Ice Truck Killer) is …
CSI
CSI without the Gil Grissom character just isn’t CSI, but the show is still plugging along. It’s not that it’s bad, it just lacks the zip and zest that Grissom injected into the action. Still, the March 5, 2009 episode called “Turn, Turn, Turn” was intriguing and …
Star Trek: The Doomsday Machine TV Show

1000 Ways to Die
Not a lot of things make me paranoid, but the television show “1000 Ways to Die” might be number one on the top of that small list. Not a lot of people seem to know about that show either, as unlike some shows this one is not promoted as …

Law & Order SVU: Smut
Wow, I have to wonder where Law & Order SVU is starting to head at this point. Another episode last night, “Smut” and another hour where I felt kind of bored.

Daytime TV: The Young and Restless
