The second of five episodes that make up the British documentary series, Titanic: The Mission, focused on the massive anchor that was built for the luxury liner. Whereas back in forging days, the anchor was built in Netherton and transported to the Titanic, in this hour, the engineering …

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex: 2nd Gig Episode 16 has Ishikawa returning from the Peninsula to give Section 9 news regarding Kuze’s origins.
I liked this episode because it was very interesting and moved the plot forward, while giving us information about the Individual 11’s leader Kuze. …

The Kids Are Alright, episode 601, opens in almost a way you’d expect this to the be last season because there is a montage at the beginning of the episode of all the characters. I love this show, but there are still parts of it that annoy me. …

The opening scene of Fireball XL5: The Forbidden Planet at Venus’ beach house is a kick. There’s a discussion about TV being boring and Steve Zodiac wanting to watch intergalactic sports all the time. It’s a conversation that a lot of families have had, I’m sure. …

This episode is almost a cast reunion. JD and Elliot are featured and there are cameos by both Jordan and the Todd.
Aside from Elliot’s general unlikable personality, the episode is solid. Both the veterans and the newbies bring in a fair share of humor. It was …

Reaper was a big disappointment to me. I had high hopes for it, but I never made it through the first episode. The premise is very interesting. Parents sell their son’s soul to the devil before he was even born and when he turns 21, it is …

Stargate SG-1: Desperate Measures has its moments, but it’s another story that is Earth-based and not really a big favorite.
Among the pluses is another appearance by Tom McBeath as Harry Maybourne, and that means some good Jack and Harry craziness. The two characters have a crazy connection and …

From January 1961, The Andy Griffith Show: The Horse Trader is another show where Sheriff Andy Taylor learns a lesson from his young son, Opie, who is brilliantly portrayed by Ronnie Howard, as he was known back then. It’s more or less a tale of backing up your …

Masters of Horror was a series of one-hour long independent horror movies, each one directed by a different person. The episode Sounds Like seems to be a modern retelling of Edgar Allan Poe’s famous story The Telltale Heart. Larry is a married man who recently lost his …

Just as “Midnight” focused on the Doctor and featured Donna in a minimal capacity, so too does this one focus on one character while leaving another one on the sidelines, though this time it inverts that formula. The focus is on Donna and the episode takes a look at …

After Breaking Bad, it was a little hard to find another crime drama that I thought would measure up to its suspense and success. However, after someone I knew recommended the series Fargo, I realised that I just had to try it. I had to know why so many people …

This is a great example of why the show is so amazing. That was fantastic episode and I enjoyed it very much. It really kept me on the edge and I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen. And because the story was so personal, you could …

The Andy Griffith Show: Andy and Barney in the Big City from season two opens with a funny bit with Opie (Ron Howard) having just lost a tooth and having a lisp as a result. Deputy Barney Fife (Don Knotts) does a tongue twister with him that is …

The pilot for the new dramatic series, Chase, told me one huge thing. This is a show that wants to be a cross of In Plain Sight and Criminal Minds. Both of those are excellent series, but can a combination series be unique enough to draw an …

The New Gidget was the second television series for the Gidget character. The first time around it was a teenage Sally Field in the role, with Don Porter as her father. Gidget is all grown up now and married to her longtime sweetheart. First seen the …

Imagine if you found out your better half was dying of a terminal illness. A revelation like that is bound to do all manner of things to your mind, but you probably wouldn’t react like Jill Tyrell, the monstrous but somehow lovable lead of this terrific comedy. After finding …

Here we have Gilligan being his usual self in this episode. He actually gets on my nerves a little bit through his playing around and causing minor but irritating problems. But he does come up with creative solutions to problems so he makes up for his pesky joking around …

Believe it or not, even tennis guru Bobby Riggs was worthy to be the Man of the Week on The Dean Martin Comedy Hour. It’s amazing who they honored, and that’s not always good. Martin had a few good opener zingers, including some about the big Billie …

In the era of videogame popularity, Stargate SG-1: Avatar focuses on that theme a bit. In the story, Earth scientists have been working on using the chairs from season two’s The Gamekeeper to help with virtual training scenarios. These chairs are linked to the brain and learn …

I am just reviewing this one episode of the series —“ Derren Brown investigates The Ghost Hunter. Derren Brown is the great —˜destroyer of fantasies’ and master of the anti-climax! I do appreciate that he wants to expose the many frauds who prey on people’s need for …

After the previous episode left a bad taste in my mouth with it’s goofy, out of nowhere, plot twist; this episode washes said taste out with a rather magnificent episode that left me enthralled throughout the entire runtime of the episode.
After receiving an anonymous tip about an impending bank …

The second episode of Orchestra United was a little slow for me somehow. I can’t really put my finger on it, but there was something that didn’t keep me as hooked as I had been. Still, the hour long episode from the United Kingdom had some solid …

After an enjoyable double date with Ted Danson and Mary Steenburgen, Larry loses his prized campers at the shoe desk and becomes infatuated with Mary. He soon enjoys a day of shopping with Mary (and her mother) to the bemusement of wife of Cheryl and friend Ted.
Later on, he …

The Andy Griffith Show: Andy Saves Gomer is a standout episode that lets Jim Nabors shine as the lovable Gomer Pyle.
The show opens with Andy and company getting a letter from Barney, who is in the big city with his cousin, Virgil. It’s interesting that in this fourth …

I greatly enjoyed this 25th outing from Sea Hunt’s fourth year on the air. The show was called Underwater Pirates, but no, there aren’t pirates with peg legs or ships with skull and cross bones flags waving furiously in the air. However, there are pirates, as in salvage …

Type of Story
This is a romantic comedy.
A Short Introduction
This story is based on Ted Mosby’s romantic life and how did he end up with his present wife. The story is narrated through flashbacks of Ted’s past together with his best friends, Marshall, Lily, Barney, and Robin. Some …

From season four in March 1964, The Andy Griffith Show: Divorce, Mountain Style is another story that centers around the Darling family, and that means that, for me, it is an okay outing, but not one that I am particularly fond of watching. The Darlings are quite popular …

When I first saw the description of Monday’s House episode “Private Lives,” I thought it was going to be similar to another episode we have seen on the show, where a person uses the internet to get an alternative diagnosis.
As it turns out, it was a pretty interesting episode.
The …

Considering prior storylines, this third season entry for ABC’s That Girl opens a little oddly for me. The title is 7 1/4, which is also odd, so I suppose it all makes sense in some strange way. As the story begins, Don Hollinger (Ted Bessell) is about …

That Girl: It’s a Mod, Mod World concludes in Los Angeles, where a British photographer with eyes for Ann Marie has taken her and others to complete a modeling project. All the while, he’s trying to win her over and convince Ann to go with him to Palm …

Damned If You Do was the third outing for the seventh season of CSI: New York, and I can’t say that I liked their choice of opening song which was a throwback to Miami Vice. It’s so strongly associated with that show that I can’t believe the music …

Every once in a while, the series Buffy the Vampire Slayer will dedicate an episode to teaching its main character an important life lesson.
The episode Lie to Me focuses on teaching Buffy the importance of knowing who to trust.

Star Trek: Plato’s Stepchildren has the Enterprise responding to a call for medical help on a planet with just a handful of inhabitants, though the residents are a couple thousand years old. The problem is that these people have become expert with their psychokinetic powers and bullies to …

This show is brought to us by the same people that brought us Family Guy. And like Family Guy, it is a gratuitously vulgar show with little comedic value that I cannot understand why it is on my television set.
Really, what is funny about this show? I’ve …

When I was younger, I used to go to water parks all the time. I loved the ones that had a raft, as the ones without generally scared me. This is because I once came down a waterslide and landed in the bottom wading pool in the …

Because of my daughter, I have seen almost every episode of SpongeBob SquarePants. The one episode I�ve seen a dozen times and still find hilarious is Big Pink Loser.
This episode focuses on Patrick, (Spongebob�s Starfish friend) and how he is upset about never winning an award. And, he gets …

The latest episode of Undercover Boss had the CEO of 7-Eleven, Joseph M. DePinto, taking on a false identity to check out just how well his stores really do. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, I applaud the CEOs who have the guts to do …

Season 6 of Full House is without a doubt my favorite season. The show finally grew beyond its awkwardness of the previous season, while introducing new characters and focusing on some long forgotten characters like Kimmie Gibbler from next door.
The main reason I loved this season so much …

The Twilight Zone: Escape Clause pits man against the devil, a common theme for science fiction series like this one. It begins with Walter Bedeker (David Wayne) being treated for yet another ailment which he doesn’t really have. The man is hypochondriac who wants to live forever. …

The new series of Spooks continues and picks up pace after the rather lacklustre first outing of this latest run.
Harry is back on form and back on the Grid and ready to guide his team through more dangerous missions to keep the country self.
In this episode, an …

I am a major fan of the showtime series weeds. If you have never watched any of this fantastic show, you really don’t know what you are missing. Asides from being insanely entertaining, it is also emotional and funny!
Nancy Botwin has to start selling marijuana to support her family …

I’ve never seen the mini-series Jack and the Beanstalk: The True Story until tonight, when it was broadcast in its entirety. Overall, it was a good show.
I don’t know if I like how they exploited the deceased Jim Henson by claiming it was his show. I think that was …

Synopsis: Series premiere of the show introduces Dr. Dorian as he starts serving his residency at the hospital for the first time and meets the people who are working there with him.
What I liked about this episode: I think the best part of this episode, for me at least, …

The Apprentice is an interesting concept for a show. The show is a search for a new employee for Donald Trump. The contestants go through different competitions taht show their individual business sense and their ability to work well with others. Each week a new contestant is “fired” by …

Star Trek: Wink of an Eye gives Kirk more kissing to do, and I rarely like those shows. That’s probably why this isn’t on my list of ‘must see’ Treks. It’s okay, and it has it moments, but in some ways, it’s just a retread of an …

Cover Her Face was another tale of Chief Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh. Apparently, that’s a grade below Inspector, which is how I’m used to seeing the Dalgliesh character. Unfortunately, I’m not watching these television adaptations in order, so I keep getting the story at various points. I’ve …

Joey thinks he is living the hot shot life when he gets this job as a major role in a soap opera, but what he didn’t know is that shortly after they introduce his character, they had plans to kill him off the show, leaving him unemployed. He is …

DSTV is South Africa’s only satellite television broadcaster, an off-shoot of the popular MNET pay channel that launched during the 1980’s. There are hundreds of channels on offer, both local and international, and as such, it is inevitable that family members would be fighting for the remote control.
DSTV …
