The title of the episode in this case proved to be prophetic - after two very strong episodes, the third one didn’t happen to be the charm, quite contrarily, slumped down and simply didn’t provide the high quality, high speed drama of its predecessors.
Jason’s subplot, usually boring but, at …

I have never been a bit fan of the show The Closer. I never really found anything about it I didn’t like. I just think there are too many cop shows on TV now and can only watch so many without feeling a bit burnt out.
However, I didn’t turn …

I have to admit, although Stephen King is a favorite writer of mine, I have not read every single one of his books. One that I somehow missed was “The Langoliers.” I think I read the synopsis and for some reason couldn’t get sold on the idea.
I …

When I heard that there was going to be a broadcast of the mini-series made from Stephen King’s book “The Stand,” I was very excited. I read the book years ago and it was one of my favorites. I am sorry to say I was not …

I recently watched Stephen King’s Rose Red on the SyFy channel. It’s in three parts, with the first part being a buildup of the various characters and the backdrop of the story, the second brings in some action, and the third finishes the story with even more action.

This episode is from early in the second season, and is where the show started hitting its stride. Of course, by hitting its stride I mean starting to run gags for shock value based on them putting respected members of society in weird situations. In this one, Peter’s very …

As one of the earlier episodes of Family Guy, “Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater” is among the more funny ones. It has a decent build up, and while the plot is not as out there as later episodes, its decent writing saves the day.
Lois’ aunt dies, and the family inherits …

From April 1965, The Virginian: The Showdown was an intriguing episode that had good drama and some equally good acting. I’m usually not much of a fan of the shows that feature one member of the Shiloh ranch away from Wyoming, especially when its The Virginian himself, but …

The second edition of Cupcake Wars began at Sea World, which was intriguing. As it turned out, the gala event that the competitors would be baking their cupcakes for was a celebration of Sumar the whale’s birthday. For me the highlight was seeing Sumar and his buddies. …

Television will make a show about anything these days, especially if it’s cooking related. For some reasons, America is fascinated and entranced by anything that gives us food. Thus, we now have Cupcake Wars which has four individuals vying to be king, or queen, of the cupcake …

I never thought I’d watch a TV show that focused on guns, be it rifles or handguns, but Top Shot is a new reality competition show and I’ve become a bit intrigued by the contestants and their challenges.
Top Shot is hosted by Survivor contestant, Colby Donaldson. I always …

From its sixth season, Have Gun - Will Travel presented Cage at McNaab. It’s a surprising set up that at first had me suspicious because the events were odd but which also made for a very different show. After five seasons, it’s hard to be unique, so …

From 1958, Sea Hunt: The Hero has some good bits to it and was interesting to watch, I’m happy to say. I like the opening where we learn what project Mike Nelson, expert skin diver, is working on at the moment, and that’s research to see if plant …

The Savages is a 1963 episode of Have Gun - Will Travel, a show in which Paladin is hired by a man with a grown up daughter who has some kind of problem. Judi Meredith does an outstanding job playing the young woman whose name is Gina. …

Two Plus One was the 30th episode of the sixth season of Have Gun - Will Travel. I miss TV seasons with that many episodes, and this wasn’t even the last one. We don’t get a San Francisco opening unfortunately. Rather, we see Paladin (Richard Boone) …

Sea Hunt: Legend of the Mermaid almost feels like a repeat or perhaps a sequel. Let me explain why this June 1958 outing feels a little quirky.
First, this is yet another episode about sponge diving. We saw quite a bit of that just a few weeks before …

In Sea Hunt: Underwater Patrol , there is a crime wave going on in the Florida waters. I suppose that in reality that is nothing new, but back in this June 1958 episode, the problem was a pair who had a unique gambit going. One man released …
