Has there ever been a better show than “The Simpsons”? I think not, at least in my generation. I think back to when I was just growing up and the show first aired. It was an instant hit and it has not stopped providing laughs. …
Birds of Prey episode 5: Sins of the Mother
One of the strangest things about this show was the direction that they took with Dinah. It hasn’t been “bad” exactly, just very bizarre. It seems like they could have just used Dinah in her more traditional Black Canary persona. This episode seems like it is …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Consequences

Ice Road Truckers: A Rookie’s Nightmare TV Show
In an odd sort of way, Ice Road Truckers: A Rookie’s Nightmare felt a bit like the karma show, the one in which some of the drivers got at least a small taste of what has been due them for a while.
For example, Hugh, nicknamed the polar bear, is …
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Booby Trap
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Booby Trap is an episode that is quite good. What I particularly like about this episode is the music. It is exceptionally good in achieving a sense of wonder and awe in scenes that warrant it, while in other scenes, projecting tension and …

I thought this was one of the most memorable X-Files episodes. It guest starred a famous comedian Kathy Griffin, and it was the 159th episode of the television series. It was also the 20th episode of season 7 of “The X-Files”. It was memorable because I found that the …

That Girl: Beware of Actors Bearing Gifts
This story is full of intentional confusion, and it’s just a hoot to see Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) try to figure it all out.

I have seen the Halloween special “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” more times than I can count considering it’s been on the air since before I was born. But, last night was the first time my oldest daughter got a chance to watch it. She loved it.
Let’s put …

Buck Rogers - The Fighting 69th

Friends Season One - The one with the thumb

The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: Pirates
