Judge Judy (American Court show)

Chandler Bing
There are quite a few episodes whereby we see the Friends cast imitating Chandler Bing. He is one of the most weird and quirkiest of Friends’ cast character yet, and he is so charmingly sweet. And also the fact that Monica always is wanting to give him ‘face’ …
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.

Smallville Season 8 Episode 5
At first i thought this episode was a little bit off. A jeweler kidnaps Chloe and Jimmy, hooks them up to a lie detector test and asks them questions to determine if their love is true. If the lie they get an electric shock.
Weird huh?
I didn’t really …
Case Closed
Looking for a great mystery show to keep you entertained. Look no further, Case Closed in my opinion is the best mystery show ever. Case Closed is an amimated Japanese mystery show (availible in english). Don’t click the back button just because it is animated. Case Closed follows the …
John Doe: Psychic Connection TV show
The gore sneaks in again during John Doe: Psychic Connection. The show isn’t as bloody as many of its contemporaries, but when they do decide to show it, they tend to linger, and that’s what they do here when John Doe (Dominic Purcell) jerks away from his violent …
That Girl: I’ll Be Suing You
That Girl: I’ll Be Suing You is typical That Girl comedy. Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) has borrowed her boyfriend’s brand new car, a lovely red convertible, to take a rubber tree plant to her parents, who live about 30 minutes outside of the city in Brewster, New York. …
Beast Wars - Transmutate
Beast Wars - Transmutate is a story that is sad and most certainly different. I like it for a couple of reasons. For one, it offers a subliminal commentary on how that which is different is often the source of disgust and sometimes the source of feelings that desire …

The X-Files Never Again Episode
“Never Again” was one of my favorite episodes from the popular 90s American television show “The X-Files”.

Hogan’s Hero TV Episode: Will the Real Adolf Please Stand Up
I had a chance to catch a re-run of Hogan’s Heroes while at home for lunch today; “Will the Real Adolf Please Stand Up.”

Pokemon (TV Show) - Pokemon Shipwreck (Episode)
“Pokemon Shipwreck” is an episode of the “Pokemon” television series and the second episode in a three episode story arc. Just as the previous episode proved to be thoroughly entertaining, this episode too is fun to watch as Ash and company along with Jessie, James and Meowth walk around …
Dancing with the Stars - AU: Episode 5 TV Show
Unfortunately, I missed the fourth outing of Dancing with the Stars - Australia last week, so couldn’t review it. I learned from the highlights here that Jobeth was knocked off, which was a shame. That information tucked away, it was time for a new round of competition …
The Feminist and the Fuzz movie
Back in its day, The Feminist and the Fuzz was quite the made-for-TV movie, its topic relevant to its era. Back in 1971, women’s lib and equality was a huge subject for debate. Though serious and often dramatic, The Feminist and the Fuzz was a comedy surrounding …
CSI New York Season 8 Episode 5
Episode 5 of season 8 of CSI New York might just as well be the most touching and most intriguing episode on the show so far. I have lost count on the number of twist in the plot before arriving at the correct chain of event and the criminal …
The Sing-Off: Night One
Recently, NBC hosted a four-part program hosted by Nick Lachey where different amateur acapella groups performed. These groups had to essentially sing and make their own music. In other words, it had to sound like there was a band, when there really wasn’t.
The show was a variation …
Beast Wars - Possession
Beast Wars - Possession is perhaps the first episode of the show to pay tribute to the original Transformers show. In this episode, Starscream, a character from the original show, returns, and possesses Waspinator. Fans of the original will easily recognize the character’s voice and his behavior. The episode …

The Virginian: Sue Ann TV Show
From The Virginian’s fifth season came a nice episode called Sue Ann. It’s notable for a couple of reasons, one of which is that it starred the terrific Patty Duke and second is that it was the return of Clu Gulager as Deputy Sheriff Emmett Ryker.
This is the …

Diagnosis Murder: Guardian Angel from season one has Dr. Mark Sloan (Dick Van Dyke) and Norman Briggs (Michael Tucci), the hospital administrator, attending a major fundraiser for Mayor Ridgeway, who hopes to be governor.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars - Episode 1.12: The Gungan General
“The Gungan General” is another gem in this season. It continues the plot from “Dooku Captured” where the Count has been taken away and imprisoned by space pirates while Anakin and Obi-Wan are trapped within a cave (thanks to the Count).
The pirates continue their belittling of Count Dooku …
The Virginian: The Lady from Wichita TV Show

The Simpson’s TV Episode: To Surveil With Love
When I first saw the commercials for the new Simpson’s episode To Surveil With Love, I have to admit, I thought it would be better.

MacGyver: The Outsiders
Season four of MacGyver has turned out to be the season without the Phoenix Foundation, or so it seems. The first three thus far have had Mac on the road, but at least they aren’t do dead animal stories. Actually, this episode, which is called The Outsiders, …
Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman
This show revealed a different Superman which I rather liked. The show starts with Clark Kent moving to Metropolis, starting work at the Daily Planet, meeting Lois Lane, and creating Superman. Throughout the show, Clark goes through villain after villain and at the same time you see …

The Ray Bradbury Theater: Hail and Farewell TV Show
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Hail and Farewell is an interesting story that puts a new twist on living forever. We’ve seen it done many times. The Twilight Zone and the original Star Trek are two examples of shows that have dealt with this. However, this episode …
Dead Like Me: Sunday Mornings
Dead Like Me: Sunday Mornings showed how JD the golden retriever was adjusting to life with the Lass family. It was their first semi-normal moment since the series began. I’m still worried about the dog, and it’s distracting me from the rest of the show.
A.J. Cook guest …
Doctor Who 2009 Special 2: The Waters of Mars
I had high hopes for this special. I really did. It has all the makings of a fantastic episode. You, once again, have the Doctor arriving at a fixed point, where he is seemingly helpless to do anything, which adds a nice level of tension. …
Stargate SG-1: Camelot
Season nine of Stargate SG-1 comes to a dramatic close with an episode entitled Camelot. Naturally, it’s a cliffhanger with the conclusion being the opener of the tenth season.
The worst thing about the episode is Claudia Black’s return as Vala, standing very pregnant as she watches destruction unfold. …

I Love Lucy (TV series) - The Audition (Episode)

CSI Miami
CSI Miami comes on every Monday at 9pm. While I didn’t begin watching the show until later into its run, it became one of my favorites rather quickly. Watching the show can be confusing even if you don’t miss an episode though. I don’t know why but sometimes figuring out …

Beverly Hills 90210
“Beverly Hills 90210″ was a popular television series which I can recall used to come on Saturday evenings in the 90s on a local television station here. At that time I was not interested in the series, and I did not understand it either. However, what I did know …
Street Hawk: The Unsinkable 453
Street Hawk: The Unsinkable 453 bored me more than anything else. It started out being about a prisoner who may or may not really be who people thought. From there, it got even more flat for me. There just wasn’t one piece of this episode that …
The Third Leaders’ Debate, UK general election campaign 2010
The third and final of the televised leaders’ debates in the weeks before the 2010 British general election was broadcast by the BBC and was primarily (although not entirely) to be on the subject of the economy, which was hardly surprising to me given that the polls consistently show …
Highway Patrol: Convicted Innocent TV Show
From Highway Patrol’s third season, Convicted Innocent was the 11th show to air and it did so in December 1957. Broderick Crawford starred as Chief Dan Mathews, the head of the California Highway Patrol. In this show, we also were able to see three different patrolmen, all …
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 …
Justice League - Twilight, Part Two
Justice League - “Twilight”, Part Two unfortunately is not quite as solid as part one, in part, because of the story and the dialogue. The story begins to develop holes in it as more is revealed, especially when Darkseid tells of how he will tear down the universe and …
