Thriller: The Prisoner in the Mirror TV Show
From May 1961, Thriller: The Prisoner in the Mirror was one of the first episodes I’d seen of this science fiction anthology. I love the opening with Boris Karloff. From watching this show and others, Karloff does a nice opening and sometimes closing, but what makes it …

Cowboy Beboop Episode 14 (Anime)
Cowboy Bebop Episode 14 has the crew going after a man known as Chessmaster Hex after a series of Hyperspace Gate Tollbooth robberies that are connected to him.
This episode was really good, it was quirky and fun and interesting. It wasn’t really about the action as much as …
Family Guy: The Fat Guy Strangler
You know, I could have sworn the show Family Guy has been on the air for a few years now. So, why is it, whenever I watch a re-run at 6:30 or 10:30 it is usually one of only about a dozen episodes?
Last night was one I have seen …
Cupcake Wars: Film Festival Faceoff TV Show
The latest episode of Cupcake Wars, Film Festival Faceoff, was focused on the Los Angeles Film Festival opening night. I do like how this competition series ties in to some event opening that day or the next. It’s fun to see the realm of the cupcake put …
HI-Jinks! TV Show
This show started it’s first season on NICK @ Nite, in the Summer of 2005.
It was decently funny, but got old fairly quick.
The point was to have parents prank their kids with the help of the host (Layla Spettanni), and at the end, they would have a celebrity …
Cosby Show
If you are looking for a great way to pass a few hours, either go to your local library or find some reruns of the cosby show. This is one of the best television shows to ever be aired on television, it had humor, romance, kids, rich people and …

The 39th show of Sea Hunt’s second year was also the last of the season. It was entitled The Raft. The premise was the deep sea diver Mike Nelson as played by Lloyd Bridges went to a location off the coast of the Channel Islands to find …
Lost TV Show
Lost is a television series on every Wednesday evening at 10 pm central on CTV. It gets better and better each time I see it. The mystery involved in this story is so intriguing, it reveals a different scenario for each character every episode. Basically, the passengers of an …
Family Guy: I Dream of Jesus
Last night one of our local channels aired a re-run of a Family Guy episode that is one of my daughter’s favorites (yes, I know I shouldn’t be letting her watch it but, if she doesn’t learn about this stuff from Family Guy, where will she learn about it?); …
America’s Next Top Model
America’s Next Top Model is a show where young women compete to be America’s Next Top Model. The complete challenges relating to modeling every week and then face a judging panel which kicks one of them out.
I really enjoy this show and it’s for many reasons.
Firstly I didn’t …

Happy Birthday Mr. Monk
One thing I’ve noticed in the final season of Monk is the cases are somewhat easy to solve but the episodes still manage to be entertaining from a comedy standpoint.
This was the case last night with Happy Birthday Mr. Monk.
The episode, of course, had Monk celebrating his (50th) birthday. …
Christmas Comes But Once a Year cartoon
From Max Fleischer, Christmas Comes But Once a Year starts out so delightfully. As the name indicates, this old cartoon is one of a holiday nature. In fact, it begins at an orphanage, with a dog licking away a little girl. Then all of the young …
The Virginian: The Long Quest TV show
The Virginian: The Long Quest is one of those that is so hard to watch because of its poignancy. It’s a story of tragedy that really doesn’t have a winner, no matter how you look at it, because someone is going to end up on the short stick.
At …
Here Come the Brides: Mr. & Mrs. J. Bolt
Here Come the Brides: Mr. & Mrs. J. Bolt opens humorously. The Bolt brothers are taking a break from their logging camp by spending time at their cabin, supposedly to relax. The problem is that Jason (Robert Brown) is the only one enjoying the scenery as he …

Numbers is one of the best shows on tv right now! CBS definately scored big when they brought this one out. It starts out with a crime being committed, then the FBI coming in to solve it. One of the FBI agents, Don Eppes, has a brother, Charlie, who …
The Choir Revisited TV Show
This show takes a look back at the choir that Gareth Malone developed and trained from students of Northolt High School and actually made them successful enough to compete in a world competition in China. They didn’t make it through to the second round there, but they performed, …
American Idol’s Michael Johns
This Australian guy Michael Johns for me is the winner of American I do, although he did not make it as he got voted out early. I really love all of his performances. Every song he sings is heart-wrenching and makes me want to cry each time. You can …
CHiPs: Supercycle
Quite honestly, I’ve never been a big fan of CHiPs: Supercycle. I’m not sure why, but the idea of this supercycle bothers me. Maybe it’s too Evil Kneivel for me.
One of the reasons the show doesn’t hit me with goodness is that there is too much time …
M*A*S*H: Requiem for a Lightweight
M*A*S*H: Requiem for a Lightweight is the third episode of this landmark TV series about the Korean War. Starring Alan Alda and Wayne Rogers, the show focuses on their characters of Hawkeye Pierce and Trapper John McIntyre. It’s all a lot of craziness and jocularity, while also …
Seven days Season 3 Episode 13 The First Freshman

That Girl: Secret Ballot
Secret Ballot opens on Halloween with Don Hollinger arriving in costume to tease his girlfriend, Ann Marie, better known as That Girl. The season three story actually has nothing to do with Halloween, but it was a nice way to acknowledge the event without devoting an entire episode …

American Idol kicked off their top 13, and 13 was a first for the hit reality series. This year is the first time the top 12 grew by one to be 13, though after Anoop, the singer responsible for the addition had judge Simon Cowell saying that after …
Simpsons Treehouse of Terror XV
A short while ago, I commented that the later Simpsons Treehouse of Terror episodes aren’t anywhere near as good as the earlier versions.
I was wrong.
I got a chance to see Treehouse of Terror XV last night and was very impressed with the quality of the Halloween special that has …
Psych TV Episode: Chivalry is Not Dead, But Someone Is
Well, after fighting the kids to bed last night, I was able to tune in to watch the new episode of Psych called Chivalry is Not Dead, But Someone Is.
Perhaps I was a bit tired. But, for some reason, I honestly did not enjoy this one as much as …
Law and Order: Special Victims Unit “Payback” Episode
One of the Law and Order SVU episodes I found the most controversial in terms of my moral beliefs was the episode entitled “Payback”. It is the first episode in season one and despite the fact that there are about nine or so seasons of Law and Order SVU, …
What Not to Wear (Television Show)
I admit that I am not a big fan of any reality show, and I rarely watch any of the shows on the Women’s Network or Slice in my area, which includes programs such as wedding, weight loss, parenting and fashion reality shows. I am not ashamed to admit, …
M*A*S*H: Lt. Radar O’Reilly
Master Sergeant Woodruff, played by Sandy Kenyon, stiffs Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda) in a poker game. Since he’d stiffed B.J. Huneycutt (Mike Farrell) in the prior game, the captains tell Woodruff he can’t play with them anymore. To get back into their good graces, he offers to …
News 36 KXAN
I usually watch KXAN channel 36 for my news channel. I think the anchors Robert Hadlock and Leslie Rhode are very professional and yet they give us the news in a more human manner instead of simply reading the news.
Rhode has not been on the channel until recently …
Sea Hunt: Monte Cristo TV Show
I enjoyed Sea Hunt: Monte Cristo quite a bit for several reasons. For one thing, when we saw scenes in the ocean, we saw some of the sea life. It was a little bit more than some of the shows I’ve seen lately.
For another thing, I loved …
The Clasic American Dysfunctual Family Simpsons
The Simpsons are a Classic example of an American Dysfunctional Family. Every family has it’s weird quirks, and family members. My family is very dysfunctional too. What is a Dysfunctional family? A dysfunctional family is a family with misbehavior, Conflict, and Sometimes abuse. Personally I think just about every …
Voyagers!: Pursuit
Voyagers!: Pursuit was another good episode and one I enjoyed a lot, in part because it dabbled just lightly into the space program, which is a topic I’m very interested in. Do a good space show, and the odds are I’ll enjoy it.
Apparently, it’s young Jeffrey Jones’ birthday …
Lost Season 6 Episode 4
As with every episode of Lost this one was a little weird. There was so much going on I won’t recap what happened. This episode was mainly about Sawyer/Locke and a little bit of Hurley.
It’s really nice to see the Locke character alive and well especially when …
Sea Hunt: The Catalyst TV Show
The Catalyst is the 32nd episode of Sea Hunt’s third season on the air, and it revolves around a man’s murder and his daughter’s quest to complete his latest project.
The show opened with the strange death of an inventor named Calvin. While under water, he was essentially put …
Star Trek: The Infinite Vulcan TV Show
Written by Walter Koenig, Star Trek: The Infinite Vulcan was one of the animated Saturday morning outings produced in 1973. Oddly, Koenig’s character of Mr. Chekov is not part of the series, nor is his character part of this story, either.
In this particular story, Mr. Spock is unexpectedly …
The Big Bang Theory show
I find this show irritating because it elevates educated nerds to a level of admiration that they do not deserve. A comedy about nerds is neither original nor enticing regardless of the deceptive title. Nerds are called thusly because they do not fit into the society of …
Family Guy - It’s A Trap
The title is the prefect explanation of the episode. It’s a Trap and don’t watch it. Seth McFarlane even warns you during the beginning Star Wars credits that this one was not as good as the others. In more ways than one, I would whole heartily agree. It seemed …
