Next Food Network Star: Cooking for Eva Longoria was another interesting hour of competition for those still remaining. It’s not the cooking I’m that intrigued by as seeing how the chefs develop and evolve into TV stars because that’s really what they have to do.
In the opening challenge, …

It is the Simpsons Christmas episode. It begins with a special show by Krusty and the gang. Whilst enjoying the show, suddenly a fight emerges between Krusty’s cast. they begin to fight and the show is off. The next scene shows the entire family going shopping at Costington’s. There …

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 …

From the second year of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, Escape from Venice was the fifth show to air. This science fiction program came from the mind of Irwin Allen, and it’s always been a favorite of mine. In this show, Captain Crane gets his …

I really like this show. It’s not one of my favorite shows but I do watch it whenever I see it on. I usually end up watching a marathon of it. I like the show because it has Tyra in it and I also like the show because it …

I’m not sure why Law & Order SVU feels the need to bring in guest stars rather than relying on its main cast members but last night’s episode ‘Signature’ was weak at best.
Ericka Christensen was brought in as an FBI agent hunting down a serial killer (who we later …

Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber is back with his third reality star finding competition show. This one is called I’d Do Anything. In the first episode, viewers learn all about the quest to cast the new stage production of Oliver.

For a western, The Virginian did do some very different things. For example, The Virginian: Big Day, Great Day includes a day at the lake with visitors in their swimming suits. Not only that, but the opening scene includes a phone call in Denver. A western …

Last night’s Law & Order SVU episode was one that was definitely designed to get you angry. The episode, entitled Anchor, involved Fin investigating a series of child murders in New York that are tied to the fact they are the children of illegal immigrants born in the country, …

As much as I love the old BUCK ROGERS IN THE 25th CENTURY series, I have to say the pilot is awful. Shockingly, this pilot received a theatrical release! Then again, STAR WARS, STAR TREK and MOONRAKER did huge business so another sci-fi film wouldn’t hurt. Anyway, we are …

This is one of the latest episodes of CSI: Las Vegas. While I give it up for them for trying out something new, I didn’t really care much for this episode. Other than being completely different from other episodes, I didn’t really like anything about it. I thought it …

As the flames devourer both the church and the body of Dietrich, Sister Esther’s true friend and ally in her time of need. Trinity blood episode 4 opens with a bang, especially as it is the end of the Star of Sorrow story arc. Ironically enough, the title is …

Thriller: The Closed Cabinet was a good hour of viewing. I haven’t seen these Thriller episodes until recently, and now I’ve seen several, most of which have been nice to view. Hopefully, I’ll be able to see more of them. Boris Karloff has a knack for …

I kind of lost track of Scrubs about midway through the last season. My DVR wasn’t working and there are way too many shows on to watch. I had read that they were going to renew the show for another season, even though most of the cast …

The Apprentice continued its tenth season with this second episode that had loud mouth David acting as the project manager for the men’s team, known as Octane. He volunteers for it prior to knowing what it is. He reminds me of sneaky Matt from the latest Big …

“Never Again” was one of my favorite episodes from the popular 90s American television show “The X-Files”. I watched that episode twice recently first on the internet, and then during an X-Files marathon on the cable television channel, Sci-Fi. It was one of the most different and interesting episodes …

The only way to …

The title from this outing of The Andy Griffith Show no doubt comes from the classic movie, Arsenic and Old Lace, which was a tale of two somewhat ditzy but loveable sisters who had a funny look on life. That could also be said of the sisters in …

I usually enjoy shows about mythical creatures. But, History Channel’s show, Monster Quest is one I can’t even sit through ten minutes of.
Overall, the show does a good job describing creatures like Big Foot and the Loc Ness Monster. However, rather than focus on the historical stories and leave …

This was the big night when the winner of the Dancing with the Stars 2009 season would be crowned. While I agree, the best three couples are in the finals, it also bugs me that the voting has been so manipulated to ensure that one of them, Melissa …

The Virginian: Dangerous Road was interesting to me mostly because the main guest star was Robert Pine. Pine became a household name to me when the TV series, CHiPs aired on television. The funny thing is that I didn’t even recognize him. I’d never seen him …

Like Entertainment Tonight, Showbiz Tonight is a show that started nicely years ago, but has now undergone format, tone, and personnel changes that just don’t go over well with me. This show is like a tabloid on steroids. It’s non-stop hype that annoys, and it’s very repetitive.
There …

The opening sequence for Eureka!, the new series on SciFi, unfortunately fails to do what opening credit sequences are designed to do.
The sequence consists of three parts: first, the credits themselves, which tell you the name of the show and the name of the primary cast members. Second, …

What are the odds? Mr. Spock would say they were astronomical, I’m sure, but this isn’t Star Trek, so I suppose the odds don’t matter. In Stargate: Infinity: Mentor, Major Gus Bonner and his team go to a world where they run into Bonner’s mentor, Harley Sheppard, …

I’m usually not a big fan of Buffy the Vampire Slayer episodes when they go off track and don’t even mention vampires. But, I did like the episode Inca Mummy Girl.
I liked this episode, which has the gang tracking down an ancient mummy after the seal keeping her inanimate …

I had the Simpsons on yesterday afternoon and, for a change, the channel wasn’t showing a repeat that I had seen several dozen times before. Instead, they had a newer episode (at least for me) called Skinner’s Sense of Snow.
This episode was a bit bizarre at times and I …

My daughter ended up watching another episode of the 1980s show Faerie Tale Theater this past weekend; Goldilocks and the Three Bears. And, much like other episodes of the show, this one proved to be pretty entertaining for pretty much everyone in our family.
They kept the same basic plot …

“The Balance” is the 18th episode of season one of Justice League Unlimited. It is a mediocre episode focusing on the ‘girl power’ combination of Wonder Woman and Hawk Girl. It features the super villian Felix Faust who steals the armor stolen by the U.S. government in episode …

I like the show Numb3rs a lot. Some people say that it is just another police show…FBI sorry, in which good guys always get the bad guys. Well that’s not far away from the truth I admit but I still I don’t watch most of CSI and similar police …

One day when Spongebob was taking out the trash at the Krusty Krab he finds an old beat up powdered wig in the garbage. He thinks it is the coolest thing and he decided that he is going to wear it around. He is amazed at all …

OK, I have found it very difficult to find time to watch the show Bones. But, after last night’s episode ‘The Knight on the Grid,’ I am now pledging to make time for this series.
Most episodes have Bones and Booth looking for a killer and finding him/her by the …

For the 2010 Independence Day holiday, a special called America Celebrates July 4th at Ford’s Theater was presented. I liked this hour long show, but I wish it had featured some holiday music in it. Instead, we had a lot of pop music and some other songs, …

The 28th episode of season four, Highway Patrol: Illegal Entry concerns something that is very topical today, illegal immigrants coming from Mexico into the United States. Martin Garralaga guest stars as Pablo Diaz. He is transported to the United States illegally. The show also features Michael …

When Big Brother came to the screen we were all excited about the housemates living together, this was entertaining stuff as some even have the nerve to have sex in the restroom! The show was the talk of the town until it had reached other countries as well, there …

Now this season two episode of MacGyer, called Partners, is a good one and one worth watching repeatedly. It’s been seven years to the day that MacGyver and Pete Thornton met. Mac’s friend, Jack Dalton, is in the hospital, and Mac is helping him out by driving …

I have to say, even though later episodes of House have been kind of weak lately, the one last night, “The Social Contract” was actually pretty good.
This one had a patient who had some sort of disease that caused him to say whatever he was thinking, regardless of whether …

From December 1958, Breath of a Child is the 16th episode of the fourth season of the Broderick Crawford series, Highway Patrol. Crawford stars as Chief Dan Mathews. He’s just concluded a stakeout when a car speeds by and he goes after it. It’s a doctor …

In That Girl: To Each Her Own, the theme is all about computer dating, something that was fairly new at the time. Even though this has been around for decades now, the interest in how it works and the role it has on our society is still relevant, …

The fourth episode of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea’s fourth and last year on the air was called Journey with Fear. This is a space age outing, with the Seaview launching a rocket of all things. I’d forgotten all about this episode. It ends …

Why did they give this woman a show? Never mind, I understand. She is one of the most hated people in urban entertainment. This is because she has unearthed some shocking and embarrassing things about the hip-hop community. It’s also because she tends …

Homer and Marge go to Bart and Lisa’s school for parent teacher’s meeting. While Lisa’s teacher praises Lisa, the same is not with Bart’s teacher who says that Bart needs to be disciplined before he ruins his life. Marge takes this seriously and tells Homer that it is about …

Back to You was one show that I was really looking forward to seeing. With two of my favorites,Kelsy Grammer and Patricia Heaton, I was expecting one of the best shows in years. I was so disappointed. It seemed like they were trying to clone Frasier Crane and that …

In March 1963, the Darlings didn’t just come, they arrived, and they did it in their own unique style. The show was The Andy Griffith Show: The Darlings Are Coming, and it was the first of several shows that would feature this folk singing family from the hills.
Denver …

Well, How I Met Your Mother is one of my most favorite show I’ve been watching since the starting of the episode. It is the best sitcoms on TV now. This comedy is about a guy name Ted is telling his two kids on how he met his mother. …
