I’ve never thought of the old west as being particularly harmonious, but somewhere in Patrick McGoohan’s mind, it apparently is, or at least is for the purposes of this episode of The Prisoner. McGoohan plays Number Six, an ex-spy being held prisoner in some unknown place called The …

I was a big fan of this show as a kid. It was one of the highlights of my Saturday morning. The 90’s were a prime time to be a fan of superhero cartoons as we had some great ones from both Marvel and DC. Friends …

Touching Evil is a very different and quirky show based on a British TV series. Jeffrey Donovan, now known more for his series Burn Notice, stars as Detective Inspector Dave Creegan. Creegan almost died a while back (actually, he was dead for a bit before revitalizing), and …

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 …

Sea Hunt presented an intriguing and dramatic episode for its third showing of its second season on the air. Entitled Underwater Security, it starts out with a suspenseful and uncertain beginning. The narration, spoken by Lloyd Bridges in the voice of his character, deep sea diving expert …

Recap: Earth-2 Wells with Barry and Cisco journey to Earth-2 and encounter their respective counterparts.

When Earth-2 Wells confessed he was responsible for Barry’s decreased speed from “Fast Lane” episode, I was very excited for this two-parter epic finally rolling in because I’ve been waiting to see more of Earth-2 …

Emergency!: Crash is the final episode of the series’ first season. It’s notable as well for being the second and last appearance of John Smith as Captain Hammer. Salary demands kept him from continuing in season two, which I thought was a shame because he did a …

In 1981, Pippin: His Life and Times became the first staged Broadway show filmed for television. While Peter Pan had been recorded live, it was done at a network studio, whereas Pippin was done in the theater.
Returning to the character he portrayed when Pippin: His Life and Times …

From the first season, The Andy Griffith Show: The Christmas Story is a show I must watch every year at least three or four times. I love it that much, and it just isn’t Christmas without seeing this wonderful episode of this down home comedy show.
Andy Griffith and …

While I’m not as big of a fan as the show “Psych” as I used to be, mostly because I really find it hard to believe everyone is still falling for the fake psychic routine, it does still manage to have the occassional good episode from time to time. …

George Hamilton guest stars as Dr. Mark Collier in Columbo: A Deadly State of Mind. Hamilton appeared in another episode later that I prefer over this one, which is a okay, but not as good as the other one. This show is all about the power of …

M*A*S*H: Bombed has the 4077th being bombed by friendly fire. It makes for a lot of humor as the regulars end up in all kinds of crazy situations and have to deal with more than just the usual silliness.
One of the major things that happens is that …

After camping out, Sokka decides that the group should hoof it for awhile. He explains that he believes the fire nation is able to find them because Appa is too noticeable when they’re airborne. The group teases him about it, despite the fact that it’s a pretty …

The classic game show, The Dating Game, is homaged in the final episode of the first season of That Girl. Called The Mating Game, Don Hollinger decides to do a story on the popular dating show and he wants to use Ann Marie as his guinea pig, though …

Dancing with the Stars on September 23, 2009 was the first results show of the year, and it was full of special performances. Of course, there was the mystery of who would be kicked off the show, but in the end, it really wasn’t all that much of …

Digimon (Digital Monsters) was an anime television series which began in 1998, it was aired on Foxkids, now on Jetix. In Australia, Digimon was aired on Channel 10 on Cheez TV, which is now known as Toasted TV. Digimon is one of the unique and very few shows I …

The Fugitive: Tug of War from season two is an interesting show that pits two law enforcement types against each other. Both want to bring Kimball in, and it’s quite the guessing game as to who will be the victor as the show progresses.
Don Gordon guest stars as …

Well, last night’s episode of Bones wasn’t too bad; at least compared to some of the weaker episodes that have aired recently.
You have a corpse being discovered by a bungie-jumping couple on their wedding day. And, after ruling out suicide or accidental death, the team finds its murder investigation …

So we all know Paris is out to find herself a new bff……oh yes. The last episode on Mtv Wednesday night was entilted Our Friendship is Over. Paris had Ryan Seacrest interview the girls, asking them a few candid questions like “which of the girls in the …

Hideout, a January 1958 episode of Highway Patrol, which was the 14th episode of the third season, was an average tale of criminal activity resolved by the California Highway Patrol as headed up by Chief Dan Mathews. Played by Broderick Crawford, Mathews spends the half hour searching …

The seventh episode is a season highlight and is quite amusing in many ways. Haim basically corners Feldman into a place that he doesn’t want to be and Feldman has no choice but to go along with it or else he’s royally screwed - and it would all be …

This was another episode where the bad guys were foreign, and not only that but they were Russians, which in this show is even worst, although Olga is a Russian woman and she works on the project, it is almost as if the show wanted to make it seem …

I never thought I’d watch a TV show that focused on guns, be it rifles or handguns, but Top Shot is a new reality competition show and I’ve become a bit intrigued by the contestants and their challenges.
Top Shot is hosted by Survivor contestant, Colby Donaldson. I always …

Part four of John Adams, the HBO 2008 mini-series, is called Reunion. Following the end of the war, John Adams is back home once again, although not for long. This time, John eventually sends for Abigail to join him in Paris.
The scene where Abigail arrives is prolonged. …

I already knew from the first episode that this show wasn’t like Law and Order or CSI. This show mostly focuses on the bad guy, and why they do what they do, not how they did it. Compulsion was an episode about an arsonist. I got to learn the …

The Next Iron Chef continued its hunt with a show called Transformation. All of the episodes this season have had one word themes that are said to focus on the attributes an iron chef must possess, like innovation and resourcefulness. This hour sought to see which chefs …

How I met your mother is in its 4th season and I believe to be running strong. The show is absolutely hilarious and I recommend it to everyone over the age of 17. I don’t think you would understand all of it if you were a younger child. Anyways …

The Office is one of the more hit or miss shows on television in my opinion. It’s not even just from episode to episode. There will be four or five jokes in a single scene and only one or two will be funny, but those jokes can make me …

In M*A*S*H: Run for the Money, Sergeant Max Klinger (Jamie Farr) gets the 4077th to make a bet for a big race, claiming that the newest arrival was a track star. The problem is that it’s the man’s son who is the marathon runner. Thus the search …

Person of Interest is a crime drama television series that was introduced to me by a friend of mine. I remember that when the person first described it to me, the premise of the series seemed interesting enough to the point where I was very eager to watch it. Then …

From February 1996, Diagnosis Murder: Murder Murder gets its name because the story revolves around a set of twins. Actually the story begins at a party that Mark Sloan (Dick Van Dyke) attends at his friend’s house. The friend is played by Robert Vaughn who is thankfully …

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Attack! featured guest stars Skip Homeier as Robek and Kevin Hagen as Komal. This 1968 episode, the 23rd of this science fiction program’s fourth and last season on television, starred Richard Basehart as Admiral Harriman Nelson and David Hedison as Captain …

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 …

Ok, I don’t normally make it a rule to watch the shows my daughter watches. But, I have found I genuinely enjoy the Disney series, Hanna Montana.
If you aren’t burned out on all the merchandise and constant news coverage of her concerts, you should take a few minutes to …

Beast Wars - Changing of the Guard is an excellent episode - in part, because it is an episode of the series that does something quite different and it does so very well. This is one of two episodes in the series that takes place, partly, underwater. Rattrap is …

The Simpsons is probably one of the best shows ever made. This show is just awesome. I really enjoy watching the wacky episodes they come up with in this show. This is one of the funniest shows ever created.
My favorite character on The Simpsons is probably Homer. The reason …

That Girl: I Didn’t Have the Vegas Notion Part 2 continues the action begun the week before in Part 1, picking up with the shocker of a last scene. It’s a largely predictable story to anyone who has been around the block with movies and TV shows, but …

One of our local stations aired a re-run of the Simpsons that I have seen a few times but have never grown tired of; Sweet and Sour Marge.
This one starts out with Homer trying to set a World’s Record. When he can’t do it on his own, he convinces …

There’s a lot going on in CHiPs: Family Crisis, one of the early shows from the second season of this police drama which stars Larry Wilcox and Erik Estrada.

An Awaking of a being greater than human kind. The domed city of Rondo and the mystery of the “Proxy”. All of this and more make up the sharp intrigue of Ergo Proxy. Re-l Mayer has led an average life in rondo as the granddaughter of the great voice …

I’m not as fond of Stargate SG-1: Heroes Part 2 as I am of part 1 for several reasons.
First, I don’t like what happens in part 2. There’s a major character death, and it’s one that was ordered by the Sci-Fi Network. They wanted the audience to …

America’s Got Talent: The Finals for 2010 was a pretty decent show, presented in an hour format. With four finalists, it easily could have been a rockin’ half hour event. I’m admittedly getting tired of all of the fluff that these shows do. I’m not fond …

Once again, we have a fantastic episode. Sadly, Donna sits this one out, but that gives more time for the other characters to shine (or not given what happens) as well as putting more focus on the Doctor himself.
Interestingly enough, this trip was meant to be more recreational …

Sometimes a clever twist at the end of a season finale is a good thing for a series. Other times, like in the case of the show Bones, it might not be such a great move.
I missed seeing the season finale, The Pain in the Heart, when it first …

That Girl: The Other Woman is another good episode from the second season of this hit ABC comedy. Ethel Merman makes her second appearance of the season. Though the first one was the best of the two, this one has its own character and flavor to it.
One …
