Dancing with the Stars - elimination 3/31/09

Games
After going through a season filled with a great reality-based hiring process for new assistants, I really expected more from House�s final decision.
The fact he was forced to make his choice was a bit interesting but the doctors dealing with a drugged-out rocker who was more than likely …
Sleepy Hollow TV Show Episode Two: Blood Moon
After watching the first episode of the new Sleepy Hollow series, I’ve decided that I will become a regular viewer. I literally had a week to dwell and think on the previous episode I watched and kind of connect some minor pieces. To be honest and to the …
Beast Machines - The Reformatting
Beast Machines - The Reformatting is the first episode of the Beast Machines series and it is a good one! I think the writers did a superb job of conveying a sense of confusion that the viewers could share with the characters, that have no idea what is going …
Here Comes Honey Boo Boo (tv series)
There was a point of time where I got very bored this year since there were no television series going on left for me to watch. They had all taken a break and I was looking for something interesting to help me unwind and take my mind off the …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Doomed
Well, at least we know what became of Sunnydale High School after it was blown up on graduation day; absolutely nothing. The debris were still there and so was the blown up mayor.
The episode “Doomed” was a bit boring in my opinion. You have Sunnydale being rocked by and …
Project Runway: What a girl wants
If designing for the judges each week isn’t tough enough, Project Runway’s episode, What a Girls Wants, really sets the designers up for a reality check.
When Heidi announced they would be designing outfits for one of the most important events in a woman’s life, I figured the challenge would …

Have Gun - Will Travel: A Proof of Love TV Show
The fifth show of the fifth season of Have Gun - Will Travel, A Proof of Love, has Charles Bronson in a nice guy role. In fact, he’s a mama’s boy. Bronson has been in several outings of this western series, and some I’ve liked better than …
Smallville: Iris TV Show
I really haven’t watched much of Smallville over the years. I saw a few shows in its premier season, back when Tom Welling looked more like a teenager than a grown man and when John Schneider was playing his father. I liked it, but it never hooked …
Family Guy: Stewie B. Goode
I was watching the Family Guy episode Stewie B. Goode last night for probably about the dozenth time and I have to say it is still a somewhat funny episode.
There are two main plot points to this one. First, Peter gets an opportunity to complain about just about everything …
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex Episode 12 (Anime)
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex Episode 12 actually has two stories in it. The first is about Tachikoma, one of the robots, running away and the other story is about Section 9 looking into s msn’s disappearance.
Although this wasn’t one of my favorite episodes, I still …
John Adams: Peacefield TV Show
John Adams: Peacefield is the seventh and final installment of this HBO mini-series that dealt with the life and times of John Adams, as played by Paul Giamatti. His wife Abigail was portrayed beautifully and painfully by Laura Linney in what I think is her best performance ever. …

Family Guy
In the past, I really wasn’t much of a Family Guy fan. I would watch the show and laugh at a few of the jokes but thought a lot of the stuff was a bit too crude for my tastes so I never was a huge fan.
I’m not sure …
The Andy Griffith Show: Gomer the House Guest TV Show
The Andy Griffith Show: Gomer the House Guest is a classic episode of this great comedic television series. It always makes me laugh, no matter how many times I’ve seen it, and I have seen it more times than I can count in my lifetime.
There is one problem. …
Highway Patrol: Psycho Killer TV Show
Psycho Killer was the 30th show of Highway Patrol’s third season and aired in April 1958. It’s an unusual subject for this show. Though characters have been killed, this was a case of a serial killer, and they showed the lead in to a third killing. …

TV Doctor Who - The Ambassadors of Death
Another 7-Parter in the 8th Season of Doctor Who and another wonderfully scripted episode.
Tensions between the Doctor and UNIT are growing as the Doctor is still bitter at UNIT’s apparent genocide of the Silurians in the previous serial.
Despite the great story, this did terrible in the ratings as the …

“Here Comes the Squirtle Squad” is an episode of the “Pokemon” series and the third episode in a row the deals with an abandoned Pokemon or abandoned Pokemon. After watching “Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village” and “Charmander the Stray,” I admit that the theme of abandonment was starting to …

Law & Order SVU
Every Tuesday at 10PM I switch the channel to NBC to watch Law & Order SVU. The timeslot is really good as my children are already fast asleep and do not have to hear or see the show. I don’t believe this show is suitable for their age. They …
Checkmate: Terror in the East TV Show
Checkmate: Terror in the East is the fourteenth episode of this series about a private detective agency. The story opens in the Middle East, and I was leery from the get go. I normally don’t like Asian focused plots. Ultimately, Chinatown is involved.
Early on, though, I …
House: Wilson
Last night’s episode of House was actually quite good. It still didn’t have a case that was overly hard to diagnose but at least Wilson got more air time than a quick cameo appearance. In fact, the entire episode was really about him and his involvement with one of …
Bones television show
The television show Bones has a new take on crime drama.
At first I wasn’t too interested in the show. I had thought there were already many crime drama series around and Bones was just another one. Also the premise of discovering who committed a crime by examining …
Sea Hunt: Rescue TV Show
Sea Hunt isn’t a show I watched growing up, and I’ve never really been interested it, but lately I’ve started to give it more attention since it’s airing on television. It seems the first season which I’ve been watching was different from the fourth season and had a different …
Laramie: The Lawbreakers
Laramie: The Lawbreakers is a really entertaining episode with some neat humor in it. It all surrounds Judge Barnaby Cade, a convicted robber about to be released from jail. Years ago, his gang got away with a lot of money that has never been found. The …
The Twilight Zone: Four O’Clock TV Show
The Twilight Zone: Four O’Clock isn’t my style. It’s show that has a theme about prejudice and it’s just nasty. Theodore Bikel stars as a man who only sees the bad in people. He goes around calling schools and employers, telling them that so and so …
The Dick Van Dyke Show (TV Show) - Uhny Uftz (Episode)
“Uhny Uftz” is an episode of “The Dick Van Dyke Show”. The title of the episode is strange, but it’s fitting because the episode itself is kind of strange, at least, most of it is! Episodes pertaining to UFOs weren’t uncommon on 1950s and 1960s sitcoms due to the …
The Office: Local Ad
This season of The Office has been alternating between hour-long episodes and half hour episodes and again I find that the half hour episodes are far better. Local Ad is one of those shorter episodes, but it still feels a little like filler.
Perhaps the need for every episode of …
Drop Dead Diva show
Drop Dead Diva is a new TV series on the Lifetime channel. It comes on at 9 p.m. eastern time on Sundays. I was skeptical about this show because it’s on Lifetime, and Lifetime is one of those channels that provides TV movies and shows that are a tad …

Aldterton plays the title role of Reverend Anselm Mulliner in “Anselm Gets His Chance” while his real life wife, the ever-cute-as-a-bug, Pauline …
TV land awards
Nick at night TV land awards is one show they certainly could do without. Not really without but rewritten instead of having the most stupid categories for classic television. Categories such as Best Braces or Best superhero are so ridiculous. These categories do not uphold the integrity of …
Sea Hunt: Cougar TV Show
From the fourth season of Sea Hunt came this 18th episode of that year called Cougar. It begins with diving expert Mike Nelson (Lloyd Bridges) running into a hip kid who he’d helped the year before to straighten up his life. The kid’s name is Cougar Norris …
Birds of Prey episode 3: Prey for the Hunter
This is probably the strongest episode of the bunch so far. The writing is getting better and this episode had the strongest villain to date, both literally and figuratively.
My one complaint about this episode is that it seems less like a “Birds Of Prey” episode and more like …
Team UmiZoomi
Many cartoon programs on television right now are not the most educational for children of any age; especially toddlers. There is, of course, the tried and true Sesame Street that is always easy to rely on to help you teach your children their alphabet, numbers, etc. But, not all …
White Collar Season 1 finale
Well, last night was the season 1 finale of the show White Collar. Either that, or it was the fall finale, I’m not really sure. Either way, it was pretty decent.
Basically, you have Neil being framed for robbing a jewelry store and, since there is no proof he didn’t …
Brooke Knows Best Season Two
I don’t really like this show that much. Brooke seems really sweet. But she seems a lot more vapid that I expected. The Hogan family appears to have some boundary issues that are quite apparent. Look at the four of them: a mother who …
Sea Hunt: Pirate Gold TV Show
It was a father and son outing on this 14th episode of Sea Hunt’s third season on the air. The show was titled Pirate Gold and aired originally back in April 1960. The star of this underwater adventure series is Lloyd Bridges, who played the role of …
