Project Runway: Season 8 Premier TV Show
I really loved the prolonged introduction of all of the contestants. The show spent several minutes having the designers meet in groups, little by little. They chatted, and we listened. They met at airports, train stations, and on ferry
boats. They met two at time and …
M*A*S*H: Mr. and Mrs. Who?
M*A*S*H: Mr. and Mrs. Who? is pretty funny. From the eighth season of this hit comedy, Major Charles Emerson Winchester III (David Ogden Stiers) returns from spending time in Tokyo. He had such a good time that he doesn’t remember a thing. Thus he’s thrown when …

The Jetsons is a great TV show that started in the 60s. But later there were more shows made in the 80s and the re runs were shown for decades. This is a great show, and I really love how they thought the 21th Century was going to be. The …
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Campaign of Billy Banjo TV Show

The Twilight Zone: Cavender Is Coming TV Show
This show is a reworking of a previous Twilight Zone that starred Orson Bean. While I enjoy and watch that other episode, Cavender Is Coming is actually much better. From season three, it’s Carol Burnett the show centers on. Like Bean’s earlier character, Burnett’s Agnes Grep …

The Real Ghostbusters: Season 1, Episode 51: Hard Knight’s Day
Normally, I really like it when the show incorporates literature and mythology into the plot lines. As such, you’d think that I would’ve been able to get behind this episode as it centers around Arthurian lore. Yet somehow, this episode didn’t work for me as much as …

37th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards TV Show

Yet another Simpsons episode I haven’t seen before; where have I been. If I had known about the episode “Apocalypse Cow” I wouldn’t have been so quick to write off the later seasons of the show.
