Centennial: The Longhorns
Centennial: The Longhorns is one of the most fun section of this wonderful mini-series. It’s the only focused on the cowboy, and since I love cowboys, I loved this episode.
One of the reasons The Longhorns works so well is that it is headed up by the terrific actor, …
Ramsays Best Restaurant - C4 TV Series
Ramays Best Restaurant
Having created a persona that is recognized as much for its fiery temper and his constant use of swear words as his talent for cooking fine food, it makes a nice change to see Gordon Ramsay front a t.v show like this.
Usually seen entering down trodden, under …
Extreme Makeover
Extreme Makeover is a television series where each week they show 2 people who think they are ugly and want to have an entire makeover. The makeover consists of not only clothes, hair and makeup and weight but of plastic surgery. Unfortunately I think it does …
Laramie: Wolf Cub TV Show
This show, Wolf Cub from Laramie’s third season, features Robert Blake as the title character, who in the opening teaser is saved from being hunted by Earl Droody. Droody is played by the artful Arthur Hunnicutt. This character actor was always entertaining.
There is a beautiful scene between …
Iron Chef TV show
The Japanese show “The Iron Chef” has become so widely popular that it has even spawned an American version that has contributed greatly to the Food Network’s success. I won’t dwell on the American version, but rather on the original dubbed over Japanese version of the show, which …

The Apprentice U.K.: S6, Ep 1 TV Show
The Apprentice U.K. has begun what is apparently its sixth season. I’ve only seen a couple, but I enjoy it, sometimes even better than the United States version. The show began with 16 candidates, all vying to work for Lord Alan Sugar, who they meet for the …
X-Factor - ITV1 - First Live Show
The X-Factor live shows are back. This used to be considered prime time viewing for me on a Saturday night, but I do feel as though the format is dragging a bit. The fact that Simon Cowell decided to allow a wild card selection for each judge shows that …
Emerald Point N.A.S.: Episode 22 - The Wedding
The show is over. Emerald Point N.A.S.: Episode 22 — The Wedding is the final episode of this navy drama. The sad part is that no one knew that at the time of the taping. Therefore, it has that typical cliffhanger ending that would never be …
Masquerade: Flashpoint
The guest stars in Masquerade: Flashpoint are probably the most notable things about the episode. I wasn’t that much into the plot. I really do like the idea behind this series, that of taking ordinary people and putting them into unreal spy-like situations because they have some …
Game of Thrones:Episode 1: Winter is Coming
I just simply saw the IMDB reviews of the series the Game of Thrones and immediately, I wanted to see it so bad because it had 9.5 rating and great reviews. It is based on a book, but I would really rather watch it than read it so I …
18 Kids and Counting
This is a TLC show that started as a few specials narrated by the eldest of the eighteen Duggar children. This family is headed by Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, two very conservative people with strong Christian values.
The show documents the unique struggles of a family of this size. …

Halfway through its second season, Star Trek aired The Gamesters of Triskelion in which Kirk, Uhura, and Chekhov are taken from the Enterprise to Triskelion where they are enslaved as thralls, forced to fight for the amusement of their captors.
I can’t say much about the costumes in this arena …
Jeepers Creepers 2
When the movie Jeepers Creepers came out a few years ago, I thought it was one of the better horror movies I’ve seen. In fact, I haven’t seen the movie in quite some time but can still remember pretty much the entire thing; a sign of a good movie.
I …
Supernatural show
This show stars Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki who play the roles of Dean Winchester and Sam Winchester respectively. They are two brothers who hunt demons. Dean is a character who is easy to fall in love with. He is humorous even when he doesn’t intend to be! Sam …

In its eleventh and final year, The Carol Burnett Show included an episode that included Steve Martin and Betty White, along with its regulars, Vicki Lawrence and Tim Conway.
The show includes another installment of Burnett’s soap opera, As the Stomach Turns in which she plays a woman named Marion. …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Memories of Monica TV Show
Off the bat, let me say that I really don’t like these early season six shows that don’t open with a San Francisco teaser. Instead, they are getting right to the action. We miss the fun side of Paladin, that other part of him that is fancier: …
Neon Genesis Evangelion episode 7
More Shinji gets involved in the secret world of Nerv, more he realizes that he knows nothing of what they are trying to achieve other than just destroying the angels. He asks Doctor Ritsuka Akagi about the second impact, only to discover that it is actually was caused …
The Jerry Springer show
The Jerry Springer show has run its course and needs to be taken off the air for good and the re-runs never need to be seen again. I can’t understand how this show was so popular for so long.
I can’t stand this show because the show is stupid and …
Everybody Loves Raymond TV show
Everybody Loves Raymond is based on the comedy of stand-up comedian Ray Romano. I got hooked on this show when a friend of mine who hardly ever watches this TV starting telling me about it. I figure if he likes it, there’s got to be something worth watching here. …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Homecoming
Have Gun - Will Travel: Homecoming was a little different in some ways. As always, Richard Boone stars as the gunfighter named Paladin in this half-hour western series. Paladin hires out his gun, usually for a some of money that is quite large for the day. …
Strictly Dr. Drew (television show)
The Discovery Health Channel has introduced a show called Strictly Drew that is on Thursday evenings, and offered as an On-Demand option, for those of you who obtain that service from your cable company. Anyway, I have watched the show only twice and I am now addicted. …
Columbo: Blueprint for Murder TV Show
Columbo: Blueprint for Murder begins with a heated face off between Elliot Markham and Bo Williamson. The latter is the one with the money, and Markham wants his share of it. It’s a loud run in and certainly captures the viewers’ attention right away. Forrest Tucker …
Law and Order vs. CSI Miami
The two popular shows Law and Order and CSI Miami are both very interesting and have a lot of positive and intriguing aspects to them. Personally, I would choose CSI Miami because I am the type of person who likes to see all the behind-the-scene action. Unlike …
NCIS: Bloodbath Season 3, Episode 21
“Bloodbath” is an Abby-centric episode. When NCIS goes to a crime scene at a motel where there is tissue and blood all over the room, they wonder where the body may be. While Abby and McGee are going over some evidence, Abby smells almonds - cyanide. …
What Not to Wear (tv show)
I generally do not watch makeover shows like “What Not to Wear” unless I am very bored and there is not much else going on on cable television. However, I must admit that even though I don’t go out of my way most times to watch it, they do …
37th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards TV Show
What can I say about the 37th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards that were recently held in Las Vegas, Nevada? Well, there’s not a lot of good to say. The daytime genre is dying, a victim of cable and technology as well as the lack of inventive …
Doctor Who: Season 1, Episode 3: The Unquiet Dead
Having seen the future, the Doctor decides to take Rose back in time to the mid 1800’s. While he aims for the year 1860, he ends up taking the TARDIS to 1869, and to a different town no less.

Stargate SG1: Beneath the Surface
Beneath the Surface started out with our friends working in an underground sweat shop type place. Seems they have had their minds “time stamped” and can no longer remember who they are. They have been given false memories and believe they are workers on a planet beneath …
Stargate SG-1: The Ties That Bind
Stargate SG-1: The Ties That Bind continues the foolishness of season nine with the bracelets that link Daniel and Vala together. They actually end up going all over the galaxy to try and find the secret of the bracelets. It’s like a huge scavenger hunt, in which …
Star Trek: The Doomsday Machine TV Show
I absolutely, one hundred percent adore Star Trek: The Doomsday Machine. It’s always been a favorite of mine.
This episode features William Windom as captain of the destroyed U.S.S Constellation. He made a bad choice, and his entire crew died as a result. Now he wants revenge, …
Palmolive Natural Commercial
Palmolive Natural Intensive Conditioner’s TV commercial is not really realistic. Though I would believe that they made a formula that might actually make the hair softer and it “might” last up to 48 hours, the commercial ads they made was really far from reality. This is a very clear …
M*A*S*H: Dear Sigmund
The letter home theme gets a bit of a twist in M*A*S*H: Dear Sigmund when visitor Sidney Freedman, a psychiatrist, comes for the monthly poker game and starts a letter to his friend, Sigmund Freud. While doing so, he talks about the magic of the camp and the …
The Ellen Degeneres Show - Dolly Parton
Ellen oh Ellen oh Ellen, the baddest talk show host on television, and yes I do love her…the show airs on NBC-E week days at 5:00pm in my area. As per usual, she starts off the show with her jokes, and then she goes into her little pep-up …
Eastenders
I have been a fan of eastenders for many many years. I love all the drama, Love and tears, it is a classic British soap. What on earth happened!!!! I think the show has gone way down lately, and the writers are just taking storylines from other soaps, for …
M*A*S*H: Bless You Hawkeye
Outside of the upcoming Blood Brothers episode which I consider to be tops all the way around, M*A*S*H: Bless You Hawkeye is the best of the ninth season. It’s a show that starts out in an unsuspecting style with Hawkeye Pierce waking up in the middle of the …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Saboteur TV Show
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Saboteur, show 24 of this science fiction program, is one of duplicity. The first thing we see are several electrical arcs, but it’s not from weather or some machine malfunction; rather, we see Captain Lee Crane (David Hedison) being brainwashed. …
Fireball XL5: Space Monster
Fireball XL5: Space Monster started out as a hoot. The beautiful blonde space doctor, Venus, was dancing to an ancient dance called the Twist. What’s more, that cute little Lazoon named Zoonie was dancing the Twist, too. It was just hysterical in all good ways. …
Jail (MyATL program)
There seems to be an influx of programs on television today that focus on crime and criminals. This one focuses on the actual jail experience. This is a nice twist because most reality shows center on what goes on prior to the crime occurring, or while …
Law and Order: Criminal Intent Season 1, Episode 22
Watching this episode now, I have to wonder why the Law and Order Criminal Intent series decided to end their season with it. The previous episode is far better than this one, yet it is the season ended. I really didn’t care for this episode very much, and I’m …
How I Met Your Mother
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. …
Beast Wars - Other Victories
Beast Wars - Other Victories is the third to last episode of the series and loosely leads up to the series finale. For example, in this episode, the Predicon base is destroyed by the arrival of Tigerhawk and in the next episode, Megatron orders Inferno, Quickstrike and Waspinator to …
Columbo: Make Me a Perfect Murder TV Show
Columbo: Make Me a Perfect Murder is a memorable outing for the famous detective mainly because of the superb cold and calculating performance of Trish Van Devere. She’s actually the traditional lady scorned, both personally and professionally, and she is out to get her revenge.
Van Devere portrays Kay …
Blacke’s Magic: Vanishing Act
Blacke’s Magic: Vanishing Act aired on February 12, 1986, and quite honestly, I’m very prejudiced towards it because I was lucky enough to be on the set a couple of days, including one of the location shoots. I was able to meet the director, Walter Grauman, as well …
The Bachelor Rome (tv)
The Bachelor Rome is on television currently, and once again, I am sucked into watching the program. I usually try to avoid watching shows like this like the plague because once you get immersed in the storyline, and somewhat emotionally bonded with the reality show stars, it is …
Jamie Oliver TV programme
I think Jamie Oliver is a breath of fresh air. He throws the rule book out the window when it comes to cooking and he is pretty cute too.
I like the gap in his front teeth, his cheeky accent and hi little messed up boy hair… it helps that …
