When I first saw the description of Detective Conan, a kid who solved cases, I wasn’t too keen on watching it. But then I thought that I might as well check it out. When I finally saw it, I realized that it was a High Schooler who turned into …
CSI Season 6 Episode 21- Rashomama
The episode was intended to be really funny. And unlike, other episodes of that kind, this time, they have actually managed to make it funny. I enjoyed watching it very much.

That Girl: There’s Nothing to Be Afreud of But Freud Himself
That Girl: There’s Nothing to Be Afreud of But Freud Himself is one of those shows that I’m not so crazy about. Not every episode can be a winner, and while there is plenty to laugh about, this ink blot joke just doesn’t quite capture my funny bone …
Outlander (romance drama television series)
With all the hype surrounding the premiere of the television series Outlander, I honestly thought that it would have been something that I might enjoy. This was especially after I discovered that it would be set between post World War II and that the plot would contain elements of time …

Peep Show - Channel 4 - Series 7 - Episode 2
The second episode in the new Peep Show series was very good, but once again, I felt let down by the lack of any real reference to the last episode of the previous series. The woman that Jeremy was now really keen on was back in this with her …
Fireball XL5: Hypnotic Sphere
Fireball XL5: Hypnotic Sphere is one of 39 episodes of this supermarionation puppet series from Gerry Anderson. What I enjoy is that the puppets really do have some great personalities. They’re pretty well rounded, all things considered.
In this show, there’s a neat scene where Professor Matt Matic …
Supergirl TV show episode 9: Blood Bonds
The episode picked up where last episode “Hostile Take Over” ended which Non (Astra’s husband) attacked Maxwell Lord’s company. The SFX were great in some places and in some areas not such as the jarring flight effect the production seemed to employ. It could be because there were only so …

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Band Candy
While not a great episode, the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode “Band Candy” was definitely funny and interesting.
The good thing about this episode is everything starts out so innocently. Buffy and her friends are pretty much forced to sell candy to raise money for the band (even though they …
House TV show
I really believe House is the best show on television today. Fox found a hit when they started airing it. I’ve never been a big fan of medical shows but this one has the right combination of drama and comedy to keep me wanting to tune in every week.
The …

The Andy Griffith Show: Cousin Virgil TV Show
The Andy Griffith Show: Cousin Virgil from season two just isn’t a show I’m that fond of. In fact, it’s one of a few episodes from the entire series that I will actually turn off. It just doesn’t work for me, and I simply don’t enjoy much …
Adam 12 - Log 112
“Adam-12″, Log 112, is a satisfying episode with some humor and some drama, making it a well rounded show.

Battle 360 History Channel
“Battle 360″ is a TV show displayed on the History Channel every Friday night at 10 Eastern. It is a nearly commercial-free look at the history of the USS Enterprise (a carrier) in the second World War. It is, of course geared towards history-buffs, but I believe that even …

Log 95: Purse Snatcher is the third episode from the third season of Adam-12, NBC’s hit police drama. Adam-12 is one of the shows that I refer to as Webb-TV, meaning it came from the mind of Jack Webb. It has a story to tell and it …

ABS-CBN’s Showbiz News Ngayon
I regularly watch the Showbiz News Ngayon (SNN) program on ABS CBN. I am thoroughly entertained with the format of the show and the undeniable chemistry of Boy Abunda and Kris Aquino. The format of the show keeps close tabs of the famous stars in the local show business …

Cover Her Face - Part 5/6
I’m including the final two parts of Cover Her Face as one entry because it lost me a little in the fifth part. I drifted away from the story more. Perhaps I was just tired or maybe the story lagged, but while it had me early on, …

Full House TV Show
Who doesn’t love Full House? Sure, Danny sometimes gets so cheesy that you almost have to turn the channel, but seriously I could sit for hours watching it and get a fuzzy feeling inside. Cheesy but true.
It’s about a guy, Danny, trying to raise his three girls on his …
CSI S7 E10
CSI Season 7 Episode 10- Loco Motives
I found it to be a very interesting episode. It was a bit different from the usual formula. To begin with, it presented the team with 3 different murders to solve, which seemed a bit overwhelming. But then used different methods to presents …

Phineas and Ferb: Raging Bully
Well, that was a cute episode of the cartoon Phineas and Ferb. I wasn’t expecting much from an episode entitled Raging Bully and about thumb wrestling but it ended up being much better than I expected. In fact, I think it was downright entertaining.
Basically, in this episode, Phineas finds …
Sony Bravia KDL32L4000 LCD TV
This Sony Bravia KDL32L4000 LCD TV is the newest addition to my drawing room and also, to the huge collection of electronic gadgets.

The Simpsons: Simpson and Delilah
Last night was probably the fourth or fifth time I’ve seen the Simpsons episode “Simpson and Delilah” and I still think it is an interesting episode.
This episode, which is from the second season of the long running series, feature Homer deciding he no longer wants to be bald and …
Gilligan’s Island - Court Martial TV Show
This episode kind of burns me up. The Navy, where the Skipper chooses to involve himself in for most of his life, blames the Skipper for the Minnow accident. So in this episode the Skipper is mainly the depressed one instead of Gilligan. He gets so depressed he wants to …
The boondocks season 1
Looking for a hilarious adult humor cartoon with political undertones? Try the boondocks season 1 on dvd. This cartoon is featured on adult swim on MTV, and is a little raunchy, rude and crude. It is definitely not for the easily offended.
This cartton is about a black family that …

Warehouse 13 season 1 episode 5 Elements
This episode was based on a really great idea; a robe that makes you walk trough the walls. Isn’t that an interesting artefact? I really find it interesting although I am quite sure it would be used for bad purposes if it existed.
Calaudia, the girl who kidnapped Artie in …
Dancing with the Stars - Results 5/5/09
The results shows for Dancing with the Stars always have a lot of stuff in it that is unrelated to the actual competition itself. This show had a performance by Jamie Collum that was somewhat entertaining. There was also a really neat dance routine, but I didn’t …
Numb3rs the TV Series
From the first time I watched Numb3rs in AXN, I have fallen in love with this show. I remember David Krumholtz (who plays Charlie Eppes in this TV series) as the lovable love interest of Wednesday Addams (I forget his character name there), and I can see that he …
