Best Friends
Like I mentioned before, I took the time to watch some movies on the Lifetime Movie Network this past weekend. One of the films I ended up watching was called “Best Friends” and it turned out to be a decent movie.
The film starts out with two women who are …

Daisy of Love (VH1) show
I told myself that I wouldn’t get caught up in another one of those reality shows featuring a single pseudo-celebrity looking for love. But alas, I found myself watching “Daisy of Love.” I wasn’t familiar with who she was exactly, only that she came yet …
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 …
Bookmice
“Bookmice” is the name of a children’s television show which I would watch when I was a small child. I would watch it on a local television channel early in the afternoon and think that it used to come right after the other children’s television show “Professor Iris”. I …
CSI Season 1 Episode 8 Anonymous

Gilmore Girls TV Show

The Game Season 4 TV show
The Game Season 4 aired on the BET network in January 2011. This is the fourth season in production of this show and I for one am glad that BET brought it back for another season. The Game is a sitcom about football wives and husbands. It follows a …
Law and Order Special Victims Unit

The second season of The Golden Girls was a really good one. The show combines four older women of an older age who live together in Miami, Florida. One of the better episodes involved Blanche’s much older father coming to town and marrying a woman less than half his …

Stargate SG-1: Inaugeration is the annual clip show, but this time, there isn’t a single regular character in it, aside from archival footage. Instead, the entire story takes place at the White House, with the new President’s first day in office. As such, he’s being briefed, and …
Trick My Truck TV show
You may have heard of MTV’s Pimp My Ride, but have you ever seen CMT’s version: Trick My Truck? I watched this show last night on CMT and was amazed. Trick My Truck is a show where people nominate their parent or friend who drives a big rig …
Friends Season Two - The one with Phoebe’s Husband
The friends have always wondered about Phoebe, because she seems so mysterious. But what they didn’t realize is that she was married in another state to a gay ice dancer, and she didn’t even realize that she was still married to him. It is actually quite hilarious, because no …
Sea Hunt: Girl in the Trunk TV Show
From 1958, Sea Hunt: Girl in the Trunk is a bit of a different story, and that’s partly what makes it interesting; that is, interesting to a point. What was a potentially good and different show turned into a murderous soap opera, and that was sad and disappointing.
The …
Prison Break Season 3
I love Prison Break any season at all. Be it the first, second or the third one, which is currently playing in my country, and left with 2 episodes left. I can’t wait for the ending. But will there be a Prison Break Season 4, I’m not …

The Simpsons: All About Lisa
I don’t know when the Simpsons episode “All About Lisa” was made, but last night was the first night I saw it. And, it wasn’t too bad.
There are two interesting storylines in this episode. First, you have Lisa becoming Krusty the Clown’s unpaid assistant and; through a variety of …

Christmas with the King Family
PBS is treating us to a wonderful new special this holiday season, Christmas with the King Family. Now the interesting thing to me is that as a child, I really didn’t like the King Family. I didn’t even think they could sing. Truly, I thought, ‘What’s …
Bones: The Bones that Foam
Well, last night’s episode of Bones wasn’t too bad; at least compared to some of the weaker episodes that have aired recently.

That Girl: Gone With the Breeze
That Girl: Gone With the Breeze is pretty funny. Don Hollinger (Ted Bessell) has written his first novel, and he wants his girlfriend, Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) to read it and given him her thoughts on the novel, good or bad. She promises to read it that …
Roseanne Season Five
The fifth season of Roseanne was one of the last really great seasons of the show. It was before things got too wacky and the show was still grounded in reality a little bit. I thought the only unrealistic thing was when Roseanne, Jackie, and Nancy opened a restaurant …
The Virginian: Say Goodbye to All That
The Virginian: Say Goodbye to All That just did nothing for me. It’s one of the reasons why I didn’t watch this series originally. It left me cold. I really didn’t get all the nuances. Maybe I blinked and missed something important and didn’t realize …
Highway Patrol: Runaway Boy TV Show
Highway Patrol: Runaway Boy is an okay show that has the California Highway Patrol trying to track down a runaway youngster. The boy, Jimmy Adams (Brad Morrow), is afraid of having an operation which he badly needs in order to protect his eyesight.
Richard Devon plays a hitchhiker named …
Star Trek: The Next Generation - The Defector
Star Trek: The Next Generation - The Defector is an episode that is a real treat to watch. For one, it features one of my absolute favorite musical pieces from the show: the Romulan theme. It is an intense and excellently composed piece of music that we sadly hear …
Seinfeld
I just love watching Seinfeld reruns. I really wish that I had watched the show when it was airing, because I have become such a huge fan. Jerry Seinfeld is hilarious, and I love his interactions with his good friends, Kramer, Elaine and George. How funny can this show …
Da Vincis Demons (tv series)
During the year I found a few series I started watching, but most of them were discovered by way of the internet. I actually found out about this one when it began advertising on the cable television channel, Starz, a little before the series Spartacus was set to have …
The Singing Office
The Singing Office is a fun little show on The Learning Channel. The hosts are Joey Fatone and Mel B, two performers who owe a lot of their current success to Dancing with the Stars. Joey’s having a blast with his return to popularity, while the Spice …

Jeremiah: And the Ground, Sown with Salt
Jason Priestley guest stars in Jeremiah: And the Ground, Sown with Salt, a show that stars Luke Perry. These two actors were quite the rage back in the days of Beverly Hills 90210, a series I never cared for. I’ve been surprised by Perry in this science …
Doctor Who: Season 5, Episode 9: Cold Blood
This episode picks up where the last one left off, with the Doctor attempting to make contact with the Silurians so that a treaty can be negotiated. Suffice it to say, it does not go well. The Silurians aren’t the most reasonable species out there, at least at …
The Simpsons: The Parent Rap
Last night was probably the third time I’ve seen the Simpson’s episode “The Parent Rap” and it is funnier each and every time.
The episode is essentially a spoof of our legal system and judges who spend their time thinking up creative punishments to get in the news than actually …
Natalie Teeger
For some time, there was a big debate about who was the better Monk assistant, Sharona Fleming or Natalie Teeger. That’s easy to answer; Natalie.
The thing I like about Natalie as his assistant is the fact she isn’t afraid to stand up to him and make him confront his …
Mrs. Columbo: A Riddle for Puppets TV Show
The third outing of the short lived series, Mrs. Columbo, was called A Riddle for Puppets. Now this show has a few things going against it which led to its quick demise. The most obvious is that Kate Mulgrew, who stars in the title role, just …

This episode picks up where the last left off, with the fire tribe locating both Aang and Kitara as well as the local tribe. The tribe views it as Aang’s fault and exiles him. He takes responsibility and agrees to go. Kitara stands up for him …
Shaw Digital Cable Service
We’ve been using Shaw Digital Cable service for a bout a year now, and we just switched to Telus, for several reasons.
We were unhappy with Shaw for quite some time, but the company we rent from doesn’t allow sattelite, so that left us with no options for cable service …
The X-Files 2Shy Episode
I found this episode of the popular 1990s American television show “The X-Files” very interesting since it covered the danger of online dating in a very twisted and scary way. This was because this episode, “2Shy” was about a serial killer who meets his victims online, and then …
iZombie (TV series)
iZombie is a crime drama TV series with elements of horror, comedy, action and a seriously wacky plot. Just like The Walking Dead, it is loosely based on a comic book series but is nowhere near as serious or at all dystopian. It comes from the creator of Veronica Mars …
That Girl: A Tenor’s Loving Care
Carroll O’Connor guest stars in That Girl: A Tenor’s Loving Care as a blustery and arrogant tenor who Don Hollinger (Ted Bessell) is supposed to interview, or at least try to interview. When Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) goes with him, Giuseppe Casanetti, the tenor, says he’ll only to …
Stargate SG-1: Secrets
Much as I don’t like Jaffa-centered stories, I’m also not fond of the Abydonian storylines on this series either. Stargate SG-1: Secrets, however, is a story that takes place in good part on Abydos. It’s been one Abydonian year to the day that Daniel left the planet …
GameStop.com commercial
Each participant in the commercial has a different gift that they’re wrapping up. One person was wrapping up a zombie (whose finger promptly comes off in the wrapping paper), another was wrapping up some other violent object of some sort. I was completely amazed by the …
