It seems like only yesterday when Kelly Clarkson stood under a rainstorm of confetti and was named the American Idol… Now we are already on Season 8 and this mega-popular reality show shows no signs of stopping. With a new series of planned trading cards, it looks like it …

I love all 3 CSI’s. The Las Vegas one is my very favorite though. I always try and figure out who did it and why they did it. I look forward to Monday, Wednesday and Thursday nights. If I am going to miss an episode, I make sure I …

The Orchard aired in October 1968 and was part of The Virginian’s seventh season on television. The main reason I wanted to be sure to catch this show was that a favorite of mine, Ben Murphy, was one of the main stars. Murphy’s character was ranch hand …

What I first noticed about this episode is how completely the producer and screen writer can thoroughly turn people’s lives upside down, and they do a good job of it here. There is a whole lot of uncertainty throughout the show, uncertainty that causes other problems even the break …

The Virginian: The Final Hour was the last episode of the first season and personally, I think it was a poor choice of a season ender. Though the story was poignant, it was terribly downbeat. When a season ends, I want to feel excited about a show …

The Family Guy series is so far the best animated cartoon ever! This is just non-stop laughter. Even some of the quotes are almost impossible to stop laughing at. The flashbacks are super humorous also. I think those are the two factors Family Guy grasped completely; pauses and flashbacks. …

Being a big fan of the original CSI series, I thought to give CSI: Miami (the first spin-off) a fair shot. While CSI: Miami is entertaining in it’s own right, it’s absolutely incomparable with the original series.
CSI: Miami features a lot of gang and drug related cases, and alot …

The woman is on fire in the show business industry. I’m writing about Betty White, who is the primary guest star in this December 1994 show, Diagnosis Murder: Death by Extermination. In this show, White plays Dora Sloan, the sister of Dr. Mark Sloan, played wonderfully by …

This episode is really funny, as I am a huge Spongebob Squarepants fan. To me, some of the earlier episodes were better than the newer ones because it really brings out the true characters, and I think that Spongebob and Patrick were a lot funnier in some of the …

Joan Blondell and Robert Alda guest star That Girl: Just Spell the Name Right and are great to watch. Blondell is a high caliber and always makes her roles shine. I’ve always respected how she kept her career going by taking on character roles and such. …

The Twilight Zone: The Grave is just plain weird to me. It centers around a dead man’s grave and whether or not a lawman has the guts to visit his grave. I don’t know; it’s just weird. I don’t see much substance in this story. …

Top Chef: Covert Cuisine was unique in that for the elimination challenge, the dinner was actually held at the Central Intelligence Agency headquarters in Langley, Virginia. It’s not often a TV show is going to get inside the C.I.A. for something like this, so that was pretty intriguing.
The …

Emergency!: Cook’s Tour is a fun little show. When I watch it, it’s not really any one story that stands out, but it’s more the feel of the firehouse that is the heart of the show. Fire department cooking is almost legendary, and this show deals with …

When Thriller: A Third for Pinochle began, I had visions of this show being a copy of Arsenic and Old Lace, but it wasn’t. Certainly, it had some of that attitude and feel because of the two elderly sisters featured in the hour long drama, but there’s really …

Hey, another episode of That 70s Show that I haven’t seen before; Celebration Day.
I have seen plenty of episodes that took place after this one, but it is the first time I got to see the episode that pretty much changed the entire plot of the series.
Basically, you have …

This episode pits the two agents against a homicidal pyrokinetic. It’s pretty straight forward, a trait which acts in the episode’s favor, but also to its detriment as well. While the fact that it’s a regular monster of the week isn’t negative in and of itself, the …

I love, love, love watching Eastenders on BBC1. The argument, the tears the drama! And it always happens a big family do, like a wedding, at Xmas or of course in the Queen Vic!

This show has now had many series. Once a year a group of so called celebrities leave Britain for Australia and the jungle for phenomenal amounts of money. How has Im A Celebrity remained so popular.
For me, this is simple. The two most famous people on the show are …

I was a little apprehensive about how interesting a show about marijuana could be. Let the record show that this program is definitely NOT for children. The storyline is quite interesting actually: a widwo makes money to support her family (two boys) by selling marijuana in her …

This is actually a television series that both of the two room mates that I have had absolutely loved. They just had to watch it, so if I was in the room then I was watching it too. Honestly, it’s addicting but for all the wrong reasons. These days, …

It was not one of my favourite episodes on the show- but it was great none the less. The reason why I didn’t like it very much was the sadness of the stories and the personal stories of the criminals and the victims in this episode. The science and …
