Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Harvest
The second episode of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer Series isn’t too bad but, like the first, is hindered a bit in terms of helping us learn the major plot points and characters at the expense of the overall plot.
While I actually liked this episode a bit more than …
Centennial: The Crime
The most emotional portion of Centennial: The Crime is the demise of Oliver Seccombe. He was an interesting character because he did do some bad things, such as running out on Levi and Elly Zendt, leaving them to fend for themselves; , claiming not to be responsible for …
Gilligan’s Island - All About Eva Episode
Season three episode 82 is interesting since Ginger actually plays two roles, herself as Ginger and also Eva Grubb. Eva travels to the island by boat to leave men and society behind due to her depression from men rejecting her. Her emotional state leads her through this whole show. I …
Spongebob Squarepants Season Two - Sailor Mouth
One day Patrick goes to visit Spongebob at the Krusty Krab and he is trying to close down the shop. He asks Patrick to help him take out the garbage because there is so much. While they were throwing out trash into the dumpster, they are reading …
Law & Order: SVU
If you’re looking for a show to watch Tuesday nights, Law & Order Special Victims Unit is it. It has to be the best of the Law & Order franchise and I make sure never to miss an episode.
In addition to being a great crime drama, the storylines in …
Stargate SG-1: Into the Fire
Season 3 of Stargate SG-1 picks up where the second season cliffhanger left off. In Stargate SG-1: Into the Fire, Jack O’Neill makes the sacrifice of allowing a Goa’uld to enter his body. This is done to protect his two teammates. Sam and Daniel watch in …
The Twilight Zone: Cavender Is Coming TV Show
This show is a reworking of a previous Twilight Zone that starred Orson Bean. While I enjoy and watch that other episode, Cavender Is Coming is actually much better. From season three, it’s Carol Burnett the show centers on. Like Bean’s earlier character, Burnett’s Agnes Grep …
Vampire High Season 1 Episode 20
In this episode, Dr. Murdoch finds out that Drew has been seeing Sherry after he told him not to and he gets expelled from the academy.
Dr. Murdoch is furious when he tells Drew that Sherry came to him and told him everything that was going on between her and …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Enemies
I have to say, the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode “Enemies” really had me fooled when I watched it; and that’s not something that happens very often.
I knew from a couple episodes back that Faith had entered the services of the mayor and was no longer fighting evil; she …
Supreme court of comedy
I watched a little bit of this show last night. I was just flipping through the channels on television because I couldn’t sleep. I found this show and it was one of the funniest shows I have seen in a long time. Usually I don’t like this type of …
Married with Children TV Episode: Have you Driven a Ford Lately
Synopsis: In this Season 1 Episode, Al and Steve end up purchasing a classic Ford Mustang and work together to re-build it. While they do this, their wives, who are pretty much car widows, sulk because all their time and effort are going into the new automobile.
What I liked …
Little Bill By Bill Cosby
Most parents are familiar with the television shows on the Noggin Channel, especially if they have a toddler with them at the house. Are you looking for a show to give you a break from the Wonder Pets or Dora The Explorer? Try one of the newer shows, Little …
Burn Notice: Double Booked
Burn Notice: Double Booked was the second episode I’ve seen of this series that didn’t have Michael Shanks as a guest star that I could say that I liked and enjoyed watching. Overall, the show just doesn’t do it for me, even though it’s a smart show with …
The Prisoner: Living in Harmony
I’ve never thought of the old west as being particularly harmonious, but somewhere in Patrick McGoohan’s mind, it apparently is, or at least is for the purposes of this episode of The Prisoner. McGoohan plays Number Six, an ex-spy being held prisoner in some unknown place called The …
TV Show: The Amazing Race
The Amazing Race is one of my favourite shows. It’s a yearly series on CTV, Wednesdays at 7 pm central time. This season, teams have to travel across the world and follow the directions precisely to each task that they do. The winners at the end of the race …
American Idol Season 7: Dallas
American Idol is staring a brand new season and this season is starting out with a splash. The Dallas audition had some great talents and some that are just plain weird. My favorite out of the two hour show is the guy that auditioned last. He wore a white …
Sea Hunt: Hot Cargo TV Show
From January 1960, Sea Hunt: Hot Cargo deals with Mike Nelson leading the first underwater flotilla command for the Coast Guard, which is a bit of a twist. We’ve seen Nelson on reserve duty for the Navy, which is logical since he’s an ex-Navy frogman, but what we …
Only Fools and Horses The Unlucky Winner Is…
This episode of Only Fools & Horses is entitled ‘The Unlucky Winner Is…’ and it was episode four of the sixth season. This is an absolute classic episode of OF&H and one that everyone remembers because it is so funny. Del enters one of Rodney’s paintings, of …
Doctor Who Special 3: The End of Time Part 1
So we come to the first of the two part finale that marks the end of David Tennant’s run as the Doctor. It aims big, I’ll give it that, but I can’t help but feel like it fell flat a little.
The episode picks up on the prophecy that …
That Girl: That Meter Maid
Directed by Ted Bessell, That Girl: That Meter Maid continues the fourth season of this groundbreaking and liberating television comedy series. I’ve long remembered this episode. It was fun and cute. I’m not sure I’ve ever noticed that Bessell was the director. That made me …
The Twilight Zone: Ring-A-Ding Girl TV Show
The Twilight Zone: Ring-A-Ding Girl is actually one of my favorite shows from the series, which is surprising since it aired in the fifth year, one which is full of lesser quality productions. This one, though, I’ve always enjoyed and I never tired of seeing it. It’s …
China Beach: Lost & Found Part 2 TV show
China Beach: Lost & Found Part 2 was the tail end of the first outing for this dramatic series as it entered its second season. As was always the case for this groundbreaking series, there was a lot going on throughout the hour.
The show revolves around the nurses …
CSI: New York: Do Not Pass Go TV Show
Helen Slater has come a long way since the beginning of her career, something that is evident from her strong guest starring performance in CSI: New York: Do Not Pass Go. She’s the mom of a missing older teenager whose desperation to find him has her eager to …
Hannah Montana
“Hannah Montana!!!!” The screaming of her name, by my 6yr old daughter, about makes my eardrums explode. Hannah Montana is a young actress/singer. Her show is called Hannah Montana and is found on the Disney Channel. Miley Cyrus, daughter of Billy Ray Cyrus, is a …
Deal or No Deal-TV Show
What is it about other people taking chances that is so fascinating? I have found myself totally addicted to DEAL OR NO DEAL, and I hardly watch any television at all!
I can take or leave American Idol, and Survivor, though I occasionally find them entertaining, but I just HAVE …
Starhunter: Rebirth
I don’t know why it appeals to me so much, but Starhunter is one of my favorite TV shows. Sure it is low-budget, nor does it have the greatest acting in the world, but there is a certain charm and appeal to the show nonetheless. Thus I …
Desperate Housewives-TV Show
Suburbia never knew what hit it. I couldn’t imagine that an everyday housewife could have so many issues. I love this show because it briefly makes me think that my life is perfect compared to these ladies. I find myself eagerly waiting for the next episode so I …
Gravity Falls (Cartoon series)
I only watched this show because my friend asked me to. I admit that it is rare for me to watch stuff like this but…This here, right here, Gravity Falls sure is good.
The animation for this cartoon is good and it really kept my eyes on screen since sometimes, there …
Here Come the Brides: A Man’s Errand
Here Come the Brides: A Man’s Errand is a cute show from the first season of this family drama. It’s a show that shows growth for the character of Jeremy Bolt (Bobby Sherman), the youngest of the Bolt brothers who own Bridal Veil Mountain. In this episode, Jeremy …
Full House Season 8
According to what I have read, season 8 of Full House was not meant to be the last season. The producers planned on doing one more season before ABC cancelled the show. It was then going to move to another network, but plans fell through. Die hard fans who …
The Office TV show
Some sitcoms get their humor from doing the unexpected. Some get their humor because they’re so true to life. The Office is actually both.
I absolutely love The Office, partly because it’s so realistic. I mean, I’ve really worked with people like this — well, almost like this, anyway. The …
Street Hawk: A Second Self
By accident, I ended up watching Street Hawk somewhat in reverse. Thus, I have actually just watched all of the other episodes and now definitely declare that A Second Self is absolutely the best of the 13. It had top notch acting, a great story (though I’ll …
House : Don’t Ever Change
Last night’s episode of House, “Don’t Ever Change” brought back what was always good about the series, an actual medical mystery that has his team racing against the clock to determine the illness before their patient dies.
Adding to the mystery was the fact the patient is a former record …
Extant TV Show Season Two, Episode Morphoses
Morphoses is the second episode in the second season of Extant. One that I was eager to watch after getting off to a great start in the previous episode. My review will contain spoilers.
Unlike the first one episode, we’re not instantly thrown into a whirl of action. The second …
Laramie
From 1959 to 1963, NBC aired a wonderful western called Laramie, starring John Smith and Robert Fuller. Many folks still remember this series, which had an enduring impact on many. Unfortunately, it’s yet to be released on DVD, or even video.
What I love about the series is …
Stargate SG-1: Beneath the Surface
After a couple of good episodes, we’re back to the world of soap opera in Stargate SG-1: Beneath the Surface. In this episode, the team has had their memories implanted with new histories. They believe their planet has suffered an ice age, and that they are working …
The League of Gentlemen Are Behind You
The League’s second stage show is like its predecessor, divided into two acts. The first follows Ollie Plimsoles, founder of Legs Akimbo theatre company, auditioning Royston Vasey for a local nativity performance, dubbed “community”.
The second act follows the performance itself, by now a run of the mill pantomime, featuring …
The Simpsons: Bart the Genius
You know, as unintelligent as Bart is supposed to be on The Simpsons, you really do have to admire his ability to improvise when the pressures on.
The episode “Bart the Genius” is a great example of this.
Bart doesn’t want to fail his intelligence test so he manages to switch …
The Fall Guy: Child’s Play TV Show
In The Fall Guy: Child’s Play from March 1982, Colt Seavers (Lee Majors) and company go after another bail jumper, only this time there’s a catch. It’s not long before they enter a ransacked home and discover a young girl, Libby, who is the daughter of the man …

The finale of the second season is finally here. Sarah Connor is behind bars after the last episode, leaving John and Cameron on their own as they hide out in a lowly motel. Cameron arranges a private meeting with Ellison at the motel where he delivers a weird message …
Dead Zone Season 3, Episode 4
This was one of the darker episodes of the series and considering that the show is based on a Stephen King novel, I think that’s saying a lot. The episode starts with Johnny and Bruce driving down the road and listening to the radio. A local shock jock is …
A Man Called Hawk: Intensive Care
A Man Called Hawk: Intensive Care is a change of pace in that it’s your classic stand off in a public place, complete with hostages. It all begins with an armored car robbery that really wasn’t handled very well. In the first place, that robbery was horribly …

Gilmore Girls TV show
This show is full of quick, snappy dialogue with many references to literature and pop culture. It is about the relationship between Lorelai Gilmore and her daughter Rory. The show began with Rory’s entrance to Chilton high school, and progressed from there to Rory entering Yale University.
The two live …
Burn Notice: Do No Harm
There is just something cool about Burn Notice. It’s hard to pin down. Bruce Campbell helps of course and seeing him have a bit more serious role in this episode was fun, but it’s more than that. It’s the entire style, from the voice overs which explain …
HBO
HBO is not like it used to be. They used to have new movies on all the time. They still have a lot to choose from, a wide variety of movies. Though a lot of the movies aren’t that new. I haven’t had movie channels in a long time …
War and Remembrance: A Living History TV Show
War and Remembrance: A Living History aired a couple of weeks prior to the showing of War and Remembrance, the massive mini-series which continued the story of the Henry family from The Winds of War.
A Living History is narrated by Robert Mitchum which is interesting because I recall that …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Enemies TV Show
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Enemies, episode 29, starts out with a very dramatic teaser featuring a submarine called the Angler. It starts out innocently enough with an order for a course being given by Richardson (Tom Skerritt). Sub captain Williams (Robert Sampson) objects, …
