Supernatural Season 6, Episode 1
A show that I have come to enjoy ever since its first season started back in 2005 is the CW series of Supernatural. The series revolved around two brothers, Sam and Dean Winchester, whose family have been hunters for years. When I say hunters, I don’t mean the kind …
The Simpsons Episode The Good, The Sad and the Drugly
I haven’t watched too many episodes of The Simpsons lately, other than some of the older re-runs that they show at 6 p.m. during the week. But, I did get a chance to watch a newer episode last night (though still in re-run); The Good, The Sad and the …
The Office: Crime Aid
“Crime Aid” is the forth episode of this season of The Office on NBC. This was a very funny episode and I enjoyed it a lot! All the characers were ‘on’ in this episode and Michael was even crazier than normal.
I liked the growing relationship between Holly …
TNT’s “The Closer”: season six episode two “Help Wanted”
After the relatively uninspired premiere episode of The Closer’s sixth season, I wasn’t exactly expecting fireworks from its second episode. However, as soon as I saw Mary McDonnell’s surname on guest star list, I was hopeful for one of the better episodes, and I was definitely onto something, since …
The Simpson
For years an years we have watched the Simpsons on television. We have watched Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie go through life.
This cartoon series has been a staple in our lives as well as with many other people. We see Homer this average person, who …
Sea Hunt: Underwater Beacon TV Show
Sea Hunt’s 27th episode of its third season was called Underwater Beacon, so named mostly from a piece of equipment deep sea diver Mike Nelson (Lloyd Bridges) was checking out for the United States Coast Guard.
Though not my favorite stories as a rule, I do like to see the …
X Files TV Show
Whenever I am bored and in the mood for some noncommittal but somewhat thoughtful entertainment, I turn to my trusty X-Files. Although it has gone off the air nine years ago, there are nine seasons and countless episodes of this old favorite classic to wile away the dull hours. …
Cupcake Wars: Good Cause Cupcakes TV Show
The usual three rounds, beginning with the taste challenge where the four contestants had to choose various colored ingredients to blend together in 45 minutes to create a delicious cupcake, were part of this latest episode of Cupcake Wars labeled Good Cause Cupcakes. The title comes from the …
It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown
I have seen the Halloween special “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” more times than I can count considering it’s been on the air since before I was born. But, last night was the first time my oldest daughter got a chance to watch it. She loved it.
Let’s put …
MASH:Hawkeye
I normally like old MASH re-runs but there is one I absolutely cannot stand; the one entitled “Hawkeye.”
If you’ve ever watched the show, there’s a good chance you’ve seen this episode. Hawkeye is driving back to the 4077th in a jeep and ends up getting in a wreck and …
NCIS: Jurisdiction Season 7, Episode 18
“Jurisdiction” is one of the better episodes of Season 7. Diane Neal of “Law And Order SVU” played Abigail Borin, a CGIS agent who was very much like Gibbs. Yes, she does the infamous ‘Gibbs slap’. Yes, she does not believe in coincidences. Yes, she …
Friends series
When we have dinner, we like to watch some of the old sitcoms. One of our favorits is the Friends series.
We have always likes the interaction of the characters, Joey the soap star who is dim witted but kind hearted. Ross the scientist, from a well …
Friends Episode: Princess Consuela
Friends Episode: Princess Consuela is on Phoebe wanting so bad to change her name and she does not want to be Mrs Mike but with another exotic name. Including in this episode is also the cute and kind of panic at times Rachel, having an interview with Gucci. …
House TV Episode: Selfish
My wife and I attempted to DVR last week’s House episode “Now What.” But, for some reason, the DVR stopped recording about 10 minutes into it and we were forced to wait until last night to catch up with the show and figure out what would happen next.
Because we …
Columbo: Double Shock TV Show
In my last review for the prior episode of Columbo, which was called The Most Dangerous Match, I stated that sometimes even good actors can’t draw a person into a story. Unfortunately, for me, that is again the case with the Double Shock episode, which ended the detective …
Collectible Trek featurette
Collectible Trek is a very information look at the world of Star Trek collectibles. This isn’t just a show and tell feature. It does much more than show an action figure and say how much it’s worth at the time this was filmed. It really hones …
Star Trek: Space Seed TV Show
Star Trek: Space Seed is one of the more memorable shows, especially since it is what spawned Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. It employed a number of interesting elements, including the possibility of cryogenics, as in placing bodies in suspended animation and then restoring them at …
The Choir: Unsung Town: Ep 4 TV Show
This is the culmination of choir master Gareth Malone’s quest to bring together a community choir. This unique group is actually made up of three different choirs that Malone puts together and teaches separately. There is a young men’s choir, a children’s choir, and an adult community choir. …
Diagnosis Murder: Naked Babes TV Show
Now this is an enjoyable show. I just love, love, love Diagnosis Murder: Naked Babes, which I thought was cute and inventive with some awesome surprise guest casting.
Basically, Amanda is hosting a dinner party at her home. Her guests are her hospital family — Mark, Jack, Delores, …
Anime: Shakugan no Shana, Season One
I recently bought the complete collection of Shakugan no Shana season one. As a devoted anime fan, it takes quite a bit to really impress me. “Impress” is not strong enough of a word to describe my reaction to Shakugan no Shana. It has instantly displaced Bleach, Naruto, Buso …
Trailer Park Boys TV show
For years now, the Trailer Park Boys has been one of the funniest shows on television. Following the antics of the residents of Sunnyvale Trailer Park in Nova Scotia, it is always an entertaining treat to watch.
The biggest problem with the show, though, is the few shows that …
M*A*S*H: Dear Ma
One by one, the producers are getting around to everyone having a chance to do a letter home show, and this time around, M*A*S*H: Dear Ma is Radar O’Reilly’s turn to pen a letter to his much beloved mother. Gary Burghoff follows the letter throughout the show. …
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Knight TV Show
From June 1962, the fifth season of this successful western series, Have Gun - Will Travel: The Knight was a somewhat odd show to me in the way that it played out. It opens with some fun in San Francisco, at the Hotel Carlton where Paladin (Richard Boone) …
LG 32″ 720P Television
I absolutely love my LG 720P LCD television set. Given to me as a surprise from a very special friend, I have faithfully been watching television magic on the 32 inch screen. The image quality of the screen is absolutely fantastic and very clear, conveying colors vividly and crisply …
That Girl: Stop the Presses, I Want to Get Off
That Girl: Stop the Presses, I Want to Get Off is an enjoyable entry for this outstanding comedy program. Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) shoots a fashion design for a publication. Just as an aside, I couldn’t help but notice the modern look of her outfit. She …
Highway Patrol: Hostage Family Copter TV Show
The sixth entry for the third season of Highway Patrol, which stars Broderick Crawford as Chief Dan Mathews, was called Hostage Family Copter. Yes, it’s another show that features the helicopter. This crime drama loved showcasing this mode of transportation, which as we all know today can …
If I had a hammer - CSI: las vegas
This was the latest episode of CSI: las vegas. I enjoyed it for the most part. Here lately they haven’t been having very many good episodes at all. There have only been a couple of good episodes ever since Grissom left. This one and “miscarriage of justice” was good …
Martha: The Martha Stewart Show: 9-17-10 TV Show
Martha: The Martha Stewart Show from September 17, 2010 featured guests Philip Seymour Hoffman, Amy Ryan, John Ortiz, and Daphne Rubin-Vega. Some were more enjoyable than others.
Much of this show was devoted to Hoffman and his movie, Jack Goes Boating. Other members of the cast, as mentioned, …
Fantasia For Real
I liked Fantasia when she was on American Idol. I was really rooting for her and hoped that she would make it really far. When she won, I thought that things would look up for her. And I was right. But then I realized …
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex Episode 24 (Anime)
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex episode 24 has the nature of Section 9’s work revealed to the media after Chief Aramaki ordering Section 9 to take down the man behind all the corporate terrorism.
This was a really good action packed episode and it showed just how good …
Have Gun - Will Travel: In an Evil Time
Hank Patterson was the main guest star in Have Gun - Will Travel: In an Evil Time from season two of this Richard Boone western. Oddly, I don’t really have a lot to say about it. Patterson did an excellent job as an old man Paladin comes …

From season 4, Have Gun - Will Travel: The Poker Fiend begins with guest star Betsy Jones-Moreland, as Mrs. Neal, hiring Paladin to find her husband who left to play poker 5 1/2 months ago. He’s wealthy, and she wants him to stay that way. I’m just …
Ghost Hunters International TV Episode: Unfaithful Spirit Germany

What I liked about this episode: One of the cool things about this series is you get to …
Ghost Hunters series
Cable television is the best. There is a Sci fi channel that puts on some really interesting series. I like the original Ghost Hunters series, they have spin off of this series called Ghost Hunter International , however I beleive that the original Ghost Hunters was the …
M*A*S*H: It Happened One Night
One of the things that is most noticeable about M*A*S*H: It Happened One Night is just how much Jamie Farr’s role on this hit comedy series has expanded. His Corporal Klinger character has really expanded, which is logical since he’s now in the opening credits. He really …
House TV Episode: Occam’s Razor
I was watching some re-runs of House this past weekend and happened to catch a season 1 episode called Occam’s Razor.
This episode reminds me exactly why my wife and I began watching this show to begin with. House has a patient brought into him that is dying and, after …
Emergency! Zero
I haven’t seen any episodes of the old television show Emergency in some time now. But, we had dinner at my parents’ last night and my dad was watching it so I ended up watching one with him; “Zero.”
This episode turned out to be halfway interesting. You have a …
Bones TV Episode: The Beginning in the End
I wasn’t really sure what to expect from the Bones Season 5 finale last night. I kind of figured it would leave things hanging a bit to build up for next season. But, at the same time, I was a bit afraid it wouldn’t be as good as the …
Laramie: Rimrock TV Show
Laramie is my all time favorite show. The stories were fresh and intriguing, and the stories were just top notch. This episode from the third season is called Rimrock. It actually starts out very fun and carefree with a scene that really made me smile and …
Hair Battle Spectacular: Episode 3 TV Show
Okay, I admit it. This strange and bizarre show is slowly drawing me in. When I watched the first episode of Hair Battle Spectacular, I thought it was insane. The second outing was more tolerable and as for this third program of its season, well, it …
Legend: Bone of Contention
The eighth episode of Richard Dean Anderson’s Legend TV series is called Bone of Contention, and apparently Pratt (Anderson) does sometimes get the girl, since that’s how the show opens. Actually, it’s a nice bit where Pratt is visualizing the climax of one of his novels. This …
Ghost Hunters TV Episode: Inn of the Dead
I don’t know why but I just can’t seem to find an episode of Ghost Hunters I like any more.
Last night’s episode, Inn of the Dead, should have been good. They visited an inn that not only had two suicides, they had two guests go insane too.
Of course, I …
Mr. Monk on Wheels
I wasn’t sure what to expect from tonight’s Monk episode “Mr. Monk on Wheels.” After all, getting a detective with all sorts of emotional problems shot while on a case has a lot of ways the episode could go and not all of them are good ones.
However, tonight’s episode …
Beast Wars - Possession
Beast Wars - Possession is perhaps the first episode of the show to pay tribute to the original Transformers show. In this episode, Starscream, a character from the original show, returns, and possesses Waspinator. Fans of the original will easily recognize the character’s voice and his behavior. The episode …
Seinfeld
I just love watching Seinfeld reruns. I really wish that I had watched the show when it was airing, because I have become such a huge fan. Jerry Seinfeld is hilarious, and I love his interactions with his good friends, Kramer, Elaine and George. How funny can this show …

TV show Lost
I watched Lost about three years ago, up until the end of the third season, when it was just getting too weird for me. No weird is not the word, unreal is how it was. The idea behind Lost is really cool, and the first few seasons are great, …
