Stargate SG1: Lifeboat
I have recently become a huge fan of Stargate SG1, even though the show has been off the air (new episodes anyway) for a few years. Seems that is what I usually do….begin watching a show and becoming engrossed in it in later years, only to have to …
Sea Hunt: Decoy TV Show
Sea Hunt: Decoy was interesting because of how the story evolved. This story revolves around a deep sea diving expert, Mike Nelson, who is portrayed by Lloyd Bridges. He had to be in good shape since he’s in swim trunks and bare chested so much of the …
Death of an Expert Witness - Part 3
I’m not really sure if viewers have known this before or not, but it was news to me. In Death of an Expert Witness - Part 2, we learn that Chief Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh (Roy Marsden) is a poet. This does become a side point in the …
Justice League: Dark Heart
Typically, any “Justice league Unlimited” episode has one character it focuses on. This episode it was The Atom, and that part of the episode was OK, but not great. The Atom can change his size. Not much else, and his personality isn’t that great either, which might by why …
The Simpsons Season 2 Episode 1

Doctor Who: Season 4, Episode 14: Journey’s End
The two part finale wraps up as the team tries to stop the Daleks’ nefarious plan. Where the last episode had a lot of epic goings on with little room for character moments, this one is oddly quieter. It’s still heavy, but not in the same sense …
New girl ‘Jeff Day’, TV show
Jeff Day is the fifteenth episode in the fifth season of New Girl, a sit-com, where Jeff Day is Jessica’s Day fictional alter-ego. There were two plots, Jess trying to buy a car with Nick’s and Sam’s help, and the other one involving Cece and Schmidt trying to get to …

Back at the Barnyard
I normally don’t mind my daughter watching shows on Nickelodean. But, I have to say I’m not a huge fan of the show Back at the Barnyard; a feeling that hasn’t changed from day one.
Fortunately for me, my daughter is already tired of the show because it means I …
That 70s Show TV Episode: Love Wisconsin Style
I finally got to see the That 70s Show Episode “Love Wisconsin Style.” Well, I should re-phrase that, it wasn’t as though I was waiting forever to see this particular episode. I just missed the part of the series about why Donna and Kelso flee to California for a …
Make Me A Muslim
I was watching a TV program about people who want to change the lifes, so they thought by taking up a new religion for three weeks could help them do that. This challenge included giving up their lifestyle to fit the Muslims way of life. There are six contestants …
Avatar the Last Airbender Book One: Water
I recently finished watching the first season of Avatar the Last Airbender. Each season of Avatar is referred to as a Book and each episode is called a chapter. Thus, the first season is called Book One: Water.
I think Avatar is a great show. At first I thought …
The Office: Employee Transfer
“Employee Transfer” is the seventh episode of season five of The Office on NBC. This episode was heavily focused on Holly’s transfer to New Hampshire. Michael decides to take the seven-hour tril with her, and somehow Daryl ends up with the thankless task of driving them both and …
Ghost Hunters: Fort Ticonderoga
Well, last week’s episode of Ghost Hunters at The Rock wasn’t bad. But, this week’s episode, at Fort Ticonderoga was actually a bit of a disappointment for me.
Here they have this giant fort that has a bunch of claims coming from it and the best evidence they can catch …
Spongebob Squarepants Season Two - Squid on Strike
Squidward is getting mad at Mr. Krabs because they are down a little in sales and he tries to blame it on the staff not doing their job. He gets so mad that he convinces Spongebob that they should go on strike to show Mr. Krabs that he should …
Shatner’s Raw Nerve: Jon Voight
So, after watching Shatner’s Raw Nerve for the first time when Leonard Nimoy was on, I kept the show on for another airing, this time with guest Jon Voight. There’s no question Voight is a good actor, but what is at issue is how good of a father …
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers
Within a year after leaving General Hospital, Richard Dean Anderson landed the starring role in the TV version of Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, which was based on the movie musical of the same name that starred Howard Keel.
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers was filmed in Northern California on …
NCIS season 6 Episode 1 Last Man Standing
NCIS is a detective show about a Navy Crime Investigative Service. So what they actually do is to resolve the crime cases that have anything to do with the Navy. I must say that from most of these crime investigative shows this is my favourite one.
The last season finished …
As the World Turns: September 17, 2010 TV Show
As the World Turns from September 17, 2010 was the last of the series as this decades-old soap left the airwaves for ever. The hour long program was more of a Don Hastings reflection show, a compilation of vignettes in fact, that wrap it all up forever. …
Ghost Hunters: Eastern State Penitentary
We were watching another season 1 episode of Ghost Hunters last night “Eastern State Penitentary” and I have to say I was left less than impressed.
You would think a place like a prison would provide quite a few scary moments and even had some investigators running for their lives …
Seven days season 3 episode 20 Sugar Mountain
Except the fact that the Russians were again bad guys who wanted to use a small boy to kill American politicians I generally liked this episode.
An airplane blew up in the airport and some very important person got killed in the way so Parker is sent 7 days back …
The Simpsons: Season 16, Episode 6 - Midnight Rx
It’s time for the annual company party, and the usually tight-fisted Mr. Burns surprisingly reserves the Springfield Air and Space Museum as the venue. Once all of the employees have greatly enjoyed themselves, Burns drops the bomb that he will terminate the company prescription drug plan. At …
Sea Hunt: Diving for the Moon TV Show
Sea Hunt: Diving for the Moon aired on February 15, 1959, and I mention the year specifically because the show dealt with the training of four men who are in the astronaut program. The show actually opens with Mike Nelson (Lloyd Bridges) doing his narration about how …

Friends Episode: The one where Ross plays the Bag-Pipe
This episode of Friends is all so funny. Ross experiments with his so called newly found talent playing the bag-pipe and it irritates the hell out of Monica and Chandler. Monica and Chandler are trying to stop Ross to no avail and Ross even has the thinking of …
CSI Season 2 Episode 11- Organ Grinder
CSI Season 2 Episode 11- Organ Grinder
It was a really nice episode but still, there was something in it, which gave me the feeling that things did not really add up, even at the very end when the crack the case. The thing I liked the best about this …
NCIS: Split Decision
“Split Decision” was a pretty good episode, however, I found it hard to keep up with. Maybe I’m just a little on the dumb side and have to have everything spelled out for me, but somehow I got lost and could not figure out how the ending occurred.
Now …
The Suite Life of Zach and Cody
Ok so I’m lame; when nothing’s on I turn it to the Disney Channel for background noise. I actually like The Suite Life of Zach and Cody. I think all of the actors on the show actually have talent; they carry the show pretty well. The kids that play …
Stargate SG1: Beachhead
Beachhead marks the return of Samantha Carter, played by Amanda Tapping. Amanda had not been in the first few episodes because she was on maternity leave. Samantha was supposedly at R&D, but she returns in order to shut down a beachhead situation caused by a Prior.
This episode …
How I Met Your Mother: Woooo!
“Woooo!” is the episode of How I Met Your Mother originally airing on November 17, 2009, on CBS. This was a really solid episode. The actors on this show have really hit their stride as a group. It is just a level down from the chemistry …
Adam-12: Pick-up
There’s an exciting spark to Adam-12: Pick-up from season four, and it’s all because of a wonderful guest star appearance by Barbara Hale. Looking like the beautiful Della Street of Perry Mason, here she plays Mrs. Jessup, a mother called to the station to deal with her teenage …

This episode focuses on the 24 hour blank spot in Commander Sinclair’s memory before the end of the war. It’s set off when two men manage to sneak aboard the space station and reveal that they have plans to target Commander Sinclair. I figured it was an …
The Twilight Zone: Probe 7, Over and Out TV Show
I have one word for The Twilight Zone: Probe 7, Over and Out, and the word is: rerun. If you want a phrase, it would be: been there, done that. While the story elements are different, this is a re-do of an earlier story called Two with …
Third Rock from the Sun TV Episode: I am Dick Pentameter!
Well, that was a fun way to spend lunch; watching an old episode of the show Third Rock From the Sun; I am Dick Pentameter!
I never really watched this show when it was on the air but this episode is one I kind of regretted not seeing before. Basically, …
Hawaii Five-O: Not That Much Different
Hawaii Five-O: Not That Much Different focuses on student protestors who confront a foreign official. The man decides to address the protestors and when shots ring out, one of the protestors is killed. At first, the assumption is that the shot was meant for the foreign representative, …
The Andy Griffith Show: Wedding Bells for Aunt Bee TV Show
The Andy Griffith Show: Wedding Bells for Aunt Bee, a second season show that aired in April 1962, just isn’t a favorite of mine. I’ve never liked it, even though there are a couple of good scenes that I do like. It’s just the concept with all …
Highway Patrol: Foster Child TV Show
Foster Child was the 19th episode of season three for the often dramatic TV series, Highway Patrol. From February 1958, this show follows a young boy through a very difficult day. The boy is playing with a friend next door, when that boy makes a tragic decision. …
House on Fox
I absolutely love House M.D. on Fox. House is one of the best shows on TV. I have watched every episode from the beginning and I have to say this show never gets old.
One of my favorite parts of the show is Dr. Gregory House’s attitude. He just …
The Simpson’s: Great Wife Hope
I haven’t watched too many new episodes of the Simpson’s lately so I didn’t realize last night’s episode Great Wife Hope, was a repeat rather than a new episode (I looked it up this morning).
In any case, it really wasn’t as good of an episode as I thought it …
Saving Grace
There a few television series these past few years that were watching. I like the cable televison better than the standard ABC, CBS, NBC, I watched TNT and there is a show called Saving Grace. It stars Holly Hunter, who plays Grace a detective in Oklahoma. …
Max Headroom: Grossberg’s Return TV show
Max Headroom: Grossberg’s Return is one of those scary episodes, not because of monsters and unseen horror, but because its fiction isn’t hard to envision happening in our very crazy world. This show often puts up questions of ‘what if’ for us to ponder by making it viable …
King of the Hill
I love King of the Hill. It’s not as funny as say, Family Guy, but it is worth watching and I find it addictive. The characters are round enough that you get to know them and are interested in their stories, even though it is just animation. I love …
That Girl: The Face in the Shower Room Door
That Girl: The Face in the Shower Room Door opens with Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) being stuck in her shower because the door won’t open. Coming to her rescue is the handsome Federico Gente, played by Cesare Danova. He’s apartment hunting, and Ann is supposed to show …
Harper’s Island Episode 9
Harper’s Island Episode 9 is more exciting than the previous one. This one is more dark and mysterious for me. The fact that the killer is lurking out there and anytime is trying to kill and get more victims make this a more exciting watch than the previous …
Battle 360 History Channel
“Battle 360″ is a TV show displayed on the History Channel every Friday night at 10 Eastern. It is a nearly commercial-free look at the history of the USS Enterprise (a carrier) in the second World War. It is, of course geared towards history-buffs, but I believe that even …
Ripley’s believe it or not show
This is a realty show which is based on World famous Ripley’s Believe it or not book. The show covers some of the most amazing people and incidents through out the globe, most of which holds some landmark record. It brings the performers and they perform LIVE, which …
Daytime TV: The Young and Restless
When I was younger, I watched four soap opera’s while I was a stay at home mom. The Young and the Restless was part of that line up although I must say that I only watched half of the show. If I watched the entire thing, I would miss …
Stargate SG-1: The Road Not Taken
