Pokemon (TV Show) - Pokemon Shipwreck (Episode)
“Pokemon Shipwreck” is an episode of the “Pokemon” television series and the second episode in a three episode story arc. Just as the previous episode proved to be thoroughly entertaining, this episode too is fun to watch as Ash and company along with Jessie, James and Meowth walk around …
Death Note Episode 10
Death Note Episode 10 involves Light and L having a “friendly” tennis mach. L is just trying to be friendly while observing Light to see how he behaves, while Light is trying to figure out how to not let L suspect that he is Kira.
This episode was really interesting. …

Beast Wars - Other Victories is the third to last episode of the series and loosely leads up to the series finale. For example, in this episode, the Predicon base is destroyed by the arrival of Tigerhawk and in the next episode, Megatron orders Inferno, Quickstrike and Waspinator to …
True Blood 3.02 “Beautifully Broken”
The second episode of True Blood’s third season delivers on almost all the promises of the premiere, and is definitely worth watching —“ especially since the action, rather than unravelling slowly, as most series would have it in their second episode, starts off at a break-neck pace, with barely …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Where the Wild Things Are
I’ve seen some confusing episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer before. But, “Where the Wild Things Are” is definitely one that ended up being one of the most confusing.
OK, first of all, when did the show go from being a series about a girl who fights demons to a …
The Office US
The Office US is obviously the US version of the hit UK series The Office. I’m not really a fan of English tv so I watched the American version and I haven’t seen the english model so I can’t compare the two.
I have to say it was a …
Tony Robinson and the Blitz Witch
Tony Robinson and the Blitz Witch is a Channel 4 documentary hosted by Tony Robinson (also known as Baldrick from Blackadder) and which tells the story of the famous war time medium called Helen Duncan. This is an interesting story as this unassuming middle-aged Scottish lady who would …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: School Hard
While the Buffy the Vampire episode School Hard isn’t the best episode I’ve seen of the series, I think it ends up being one of the more important ones for anyone who intends on watching the series from beginning to end because it seems to be setting up several …
The Twilight Zone: The Man in the Bottle TV Show
On the surface, The Twilight Zone: The Man in the Bottle is like a wish come true. Haven’t we all secretly wished for a magic bottle with a genie inside who could make all of our dreams come true? That’s what happens in this episode, to Arthur …
Fringe Season 4 Episode 3
After viewing the previous episodes of season 4 of Fringe I have voiced my concerns regarding the future of the show. It looked like they have stripped away the most intriguing and touching aspects of the show: they have wiped Peter Bishop out of existence, taking away the intense …
The X-File Excelsis Dei
This is the 35th episode from the popular 90s American television show “The X-Files”. I don’t remember watching this one when I was little, or on the SciFi cable television channel, however, I did watch it a few months ago online. For some reason I did not find this …
That Girl: Opening Night
That Girl: Opening Night is pretty funny. Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) is appearing in her first Broadway play, and she’s ultra excited and nervous. On the day of the performance, she’s trying to get her nerves under control. While she asked her boyfriend to come to …
ABC Family’s “Huge” pilot episode
ABC Family has apparently had enough success with its “Secret Life of an American Teenager” to decide to follow that with another lifetime-movie like series, this time centred not around the issue of teenage pregnancy, but that of teenage obesity. Curiosity made me view the pilot and the most …
The Real Ghostbusters: Season 1, Episode 4: Slimer, Come Home
There’s a general rule of thumb when it comes to “The Real Ghostbusters”, if the episode is written by J. Michael Stracynski, it will be good. After the awesomeness that was “Mrs. Rogers’ Neighborhood”, this episode had a high bar to jump, and the fact that it centered …
Afro Samurai Episode 1 (Anime)
Afro Samurai episode 1 is about a Samurai named Afro who watches as his father is brutally murdered by a man named Justice, who takes the Number 1 headband and proclaims himself the most powerful samurai. Afro decides to seek revenge and takes it on himself to become Number …
Run’s House (MTV TV show)
Now this is a reality show that I find really interesting. I like it because of the participants. Run, of RUN DMC is the father figure in this show. He’s a Reverend who is very positive with this children, and instills really good values in them. …
Crime 360 show
I myself love the little mystery shows. I really don’t know why or how, but they grab & keep my attention. But one show that keeps me interested in it is Crime 360; this show is so educational, & so amazing. I never knew about what …
Stargate SG-1: The Other Side
Stargate SG-1: The Other Side is a good entry for season four of this sci-fi series. In it, SG-1 and Earth test their code of ethics, a charge led by the passionate Daniel Jackson.
At first, SG-1 is all for helping the Eurondans, a race that contacts them, desperate …
Back to You show
Back to You was one show that I was really looking forward to seeing. With two of my favorites,Kelsy Grammer and Patricia Heaton, I was expecting one of the best shows in years. I was so disappointed. It seemed like they were trying to clone Frasier Crane and that …
Stargate SG-1: It’s Good to be King
Stargate SG-1: It’s Good to be King is the show that I consider to be the last real team show of SG-1. It’s truly the last time we get to see SG-1 off-world, together, including Jack. It’s a regular-type mission that ends well and that has all …
MacGyver: Deathlock
The MacGyver: Deathlock brings back Pete Thornton for his second episode. Mac is working for him again, only things have run afoul from the start. Mac is scooped up in a public place by one of Pete’s agents, a gal named Karen Blake (Wendy Schaal). She’s …
The Black Tower - Part 1
Keeping in mind that I’ve been given several of these DVDs about the adventures and cases of Commander Adam Dalgliesh of New Scotland Yard, I’m watching them in no logical sense of order. It’s like going back and forth in time. As a result, the first thing …
Wagon Train: The Pearlie Garnet Story
Sharon Farrell is the big guest star in Wagon Train: The Pearlie Garnet Story, a ninety-minute, seventh season episode of the series. There’s little to love about Pearlie. She’s a pathetic and sad character, and this is her story, much of which is told in flashback.
The story reveals …
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Symbiosis
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Symbiosis is one of the blander episodes from the first season and only a mildly interesting Prime Directive story. I also feel that the dialogue at times is a little awkward and forced, like during the conversation of Lt. Yar and Acting Ensign …
Scrubs Season Four - My Old Friend’s New Friend
This episode is not one of my favorites. It introduces Dr. Molly Clock, she is a psychiatrist. J.D. has the hots for her, and he quickly realizes she is annoying. Turk and Carla return home from their honeymoon, and when Turk returns it seems he …
The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: Bad Luck Betty
The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: Bad Luck Betty can best be described in one word — Psycho. While the show begins innocently enough with the birthday party of Socrates Pool (Christian Clemenson), it quickly diverts to drama when Socrates is kidnapped. On the trail, Brisco, Lord …
Bones: The Goop on the Girl
A Bones tradition is ending the season with a Christmas episode. This year was no different. And, I will say the episode The Goop on the Girl was actually pretty entertaining.
Booth and Bones have to investigate the death of an exterminator who blows himself up during a botched bank robbery …
Stargate SG-1: Icon
This unusual episode shows what can happen when Earth sticks their collective noses into another world’s business, something Jack points out to Daniel at one point. Every time they go through the Gate, they impact the world they’re traveling to. This show, Icon, is really the first …
Private Practice Season 3 Episode 16
This episode was a little strange for me but still enjoyable.
After all that drama with Maya she has disappeared. Also Dell was nowhere to be seen, and I missed seeing Dell.
I don’t like the Addison and Pete relationship, I was actually quite happy when the writers decided to …
ICarly TV Episode: I saw Him First
As I mentioned a short time ago in another review, I don’t normally watch the show ICarly. But, my daughter was watching something else on one of our Nick stations and, because I never changed the channel, it was on while I was doing something else.
The episode I ended …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Homecoming
Have Gun - Will Travel: Homecoming was a little different in some ways. As always, Richard Boone stars as the gunfighter named Paladin in this half-hour western series. Paladin hires out his gun, usually for a some of money that is quite large for the day. …
Laramie: The Lawless Seven TV Show
Laramie: The Lawless Seven has always been one of my favorite episodes. I just love the drama, the characters, the action, and the hint of romance that exists within the hour of this exciting western TV series. The focus in this particular episode is on Robert Fuller’s …
The Veil: Food on the Table TV Show
The Veil was a short lived anthology series from 1958. I haven’t seen any of them before now, and I find it to be an intriguing broadcast. Boris Karloff hosts the show, and it begins with him doing his introduction in front of a huge fireplace, like …
Ghost Hunters TV Episode: Touched By Evil
You know, I used to like watching Ghost Hunters. I even used to plan my evenings around each new episode. But, after watching yet another disappointing one last night, I am starting to wonder if maybe I should change my allegiance to another program.
I still like TAPS and its …
Jeremiah: Out of the Ashes
Jeremiah: Out of the Ashes was an interesting episode with a couple of different focuses. Much like the previous story, Moon in Gemini, the heroes are split up more than they are together, which I believe is a shame. Buddy shows work best when the chemistry between …
Black Mirror Season:3 Episode:3 Shut Up and Dance TV Show
Taking a look at what the premise of Black Mirror is, it’s a show that shows the audience many different futures that may be in store for us. Most of the episodes in this show are quite dark and could be considered scary. Each episode features a new story with …
Fame: To Soar and Never Falter
Best known for her role as one of the kids on Eight is Enough, Connie Needham stars in Fame: To Soar and Never Falter, a first season entry for this series I so often enjoy watching. Basically, Needham’s character is Kathy Murphy, one of the students at the …
Gilligan’s Island: Where There’s a Will
I was watching an episode of Gilligan’s Island the other day, Where There’s a Will, that proved to be pretty funny.
Mr. Howell decides to re-write his will to include each of the castaways. Shortly after, things begin to happen to make him think they are all trying to kill …
Ghost Hunters: The Converted Church
I watched another season one episode of the show Ghost Hunters yesterday, “The Converted Church” and still feel the first season of this show is by far the weakest.
I this episode, the TAPS team decides to investigate a former church that has been turned into someone’s home. And, the …
The Wayans Bros TV show
The Wayans Bros is one of the best shows I have seen in a long time! I just love this show! Marlon and Shawn are The Wayans Bros. Marlon is so funny because he makes the funniest faces and he also has a funny voice. The jokes on The Wayans …
Modern Family (comedy tv series)
Although I discovered the sitcom Modern Family years after it begun, it has become one of my favourite series to watch especially after a long day at work. This is because a part from the fact that there is never a boring episode, it never fails to make me laugh …
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex Episode 20 (Anime)
Ghost In the Shell: Stand Alone Complex Episode 20 has Tougasa remembering something about the Laughing Man logo and Section 9 investigates a new lead in the case.
I liked this episode because it had plenty of surprises, the twists keep getting better and better and the story is so …
That Girl: The Elevated Woman
The final show of That Girl has always been a disappointment to me. Series star Marlo Thomas refused to do a wedding show. She’s always been a feminist and she felt it was wrong to give the impression that her character of Ann Marie gets married and …
Stargate SG1: Enigma
This episode starts with SG1 stepping through the gate onto a planet whose volcano is about to erupt. There is ash flying everywhere and Jack tells Daniel to dial them home. For once, Daniel does not argue about sticking around, well, until he sees people lying around …
The Brightest Angel
This year, I surfed video on demand to try and find some holiday fare to watch. I just wasn’t satisfied with what I was finding on a daily basis. Maybe I just wanted to see something new here and there. One of the shows I stumbled …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Savage Jungle TV Show
The 21st show of the year, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Savage Jungle, starred David Hedison as Captain Lee Crane. When first seen, he’s in the flying sub, looking down at miles of jungle. Meanwhile, Admiral Harriman Nelson (Richard Basehart) is aboard the submarine Seaview, …
Wagon Train: The Fort Pierce Story
I love The Fort Pierce Story of Wagon Train because it guest stars Ann Blyth as Nancy Winter. She’s always been an actress I’ve enjoyed watching. Here, she plays Ronald Reagan’s wife, suffering with personal issues from living in a fort where she doesn’t have anyone to …
Lost: Jughead
This episode of lost felt different from many others in large part because much of the original cast were not in it. We didn’t see what happened to Hurley after the last episode, or any of the other oceanic 6, instead we are with Faraday and the other scientist …
The Amazing Race: S17, Ep 4 TV Show
What I loved about this fourth episode of The Amazing Race’s 17th season is that it showed the teams giving back a little by helping to renovate an elementary school. Survivor started giving back years ago, so why it’s taken The Amazing Race so long to realize that …
