Doctor Who: Season 2, Episode 5: The Girl in the Fireplace
From what I’ve seen, Doctor Who episodes fall into three categories: ones that take place in the distant past, ones that take place in the distant future, and ones that take place on an alien world. Of course, there are several that take place in the present, thus …
Stargate SG-1: Revisions
I love Stargate SG-1: Revisions. It’s one of my favorites, and I really can’t tell you why, except I get a kick out of it. I love the little town where they filmed the show; it was so cute and quaint.
Actually, what I see Stargate SG-1: Revisions, …
The Emperor’s New School: Show me the Monkey
As I think I mentioned before, I was afraid the new character Ramon would end up creating some stupid story lines that would make the show Emperor’s New School less entertaining than it was before. And, unfortunately, the episode “Show me the Monkey” was one of those episodes that …
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 …
Family Guy: Road to Rhode Island
While I’m somewhat of a Family Guy fan, some episodes of the show are a bit too lame and lack the funniness I look for in a television sitcom.
The episode Road to Rhode Island is one of those episodes.
The episode starts out with Brian feeling a sense of abandonment …
Big Brother: Finale Part 1 9-9-10 TV Show
The first episode of the two part Big Brother finale from its twelfth season aired on September 9, 2010. The show picked up where the previous one had ended, which was in the middle of an adventurous Head Of Household competition. Actually, it’s the first part of …

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 …
American Idol with Ellen Degeneres
Ellen Degeneres has taken Paula Abdul’s place on American Idol as a judge for season 9, and the world finally got to see her debut on February 9th. I was really looking forward to seeing her as the new judge, and she definitely didn’t disappoint. She brought …
Family Guy: Padre de Familia
I’m usually a fan of the show Family Guy. But, some episodes just aren’t very funny. The episode entitled Padre de Familia is a good example of it.
Ths one explores the whole illegal immigrant thing and Peter discovers he’s not a US citizen (he was born in Mexico and …
Highway Patrol: Explosives TV Show
The 35th show Highway Patrol from Season 3 was called Explosives and aired in June 1958. While it had action and drama, it also featured poor writing in my view, and maybe even more direction since I would think the director would have some power to make what …

Tom and Jerry Show
The Tom and Jerry show cartoon tv is one of the funniest programs be it for kids or any other genres in tv history. I really love the antics that this two plays at the expense of each other to create humor.
Although the show is based on the …
King of the Hill Television show
When I was younger and King of the Hill came on, I would always switch the channel. Something about it always seemed a little too adult for me. The cartoons were neither cartoonish nor did they seem to be having very much fun. There was no laugh track, which, …
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 …
Project Runway reality show
The best reality television show is hosted by a super model. No,not Tyra Banks, although, America’s Next Top Model is right up there with the best. I am talking about Heid Klum. She hosts “Project Runway.”
It is a show about clothing designers that is broadcasted on the …

The Simpsons: Dial N for Nerder
Well, I got to see a later Simpsons episode that wasn’t too badly written; “Dial N for Nerder” and I have to say it had a pretty good plot.

Friends TV show
Most of you probably remember, from 1994 to 2004, the television show, “Friends.” When the show first started off, people involved in the show were not entirely positive that it would stick around beyond the first few episodes. Lisa Kudrow even kept her role on the show …
M*A*S*H: Dreams
M*A*S*H: Dreams is an intensely offbeat show which is directed by series star Alan Alda. The directing is great, with neat segue ways from dream to reality, and vice versa.
The 4077th ends up handling 211 patients in a 33 hour period, only to have more brought in after …
The Andy Griffith Show: Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C. TV Show
The last show of The Andy Griffith Show’s fourth year on the air was actually a pilot program called Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C. which featured Jim Nabors as the always lovable Gomer Pyle.
Griffith is the one who found Nabors and put him on his show originally. At that point, …
The Forgotten - pilot
By a fluke, I decided to watch a new drama called The Forgotten. The show stars Christian Slater, who isn’t a performer I’m particularly fond of. There’s no specific reason for that, other than he’s never appealed to me. In this show, he plays Alex Donovan, …

Back when I was in high school and …
How I Met Your Mother TV show

Adam-12: Truant
I enjoy Adam-12: Truant quite a bit. Jim Reed (Kent McCord) puts in a suggestion for a new truant program to help keep kids off the streets and drop the crime rate in the area. This is one of the shows that exhibits Jim’s sharp mind and …
Ghost Whisperer 4th season

Ghost Hunters TV Episode: Touched By Evil

MacGyver: GX-1
MacGyver: GX-1 once again brings back Elyssa Davalos as Nikki Carpenter. As I recall, there was some thought about making her a regular, both as a competent agent for the Phoenix Foundation and as a potential love interest for MacGyver. As I also recall, it just didn’t …
The X-Files Gender Bender Episode
This was one of my favorite episodes of the popular nineteen nineties television series “The X-Files”. This was because this one explored the whole issue of gender bending which was still fairly new in terms of having operations to convert into either a male or female in nineteen ninety …
20 on 20
On directtv there are music channels that are xm. Well this channel is called 20 on 20. Overall it’s pretty good. I like some of the other music channels a lot better but they are pretty good. Some times I go to it and they don’t have anything good …

Adam-12: Log 76: The Militants
Adam-12: Log 76: The Militants is a rather serious episode of this thirty-minute police drama from the mind of Jack Webb. It begins with the shooting of a police officer and a black militant. It becomes a circus and one of those politically hyped stories where no …
South Park
I have always enjoyed the cartoon called South Park. This show is just funny. I really like all the characters. I like the funny music in the show as well as the sound effects. I think the story lines in south park are really dumb. But I also think that …
House: Joy
I’m not so sure about the cases Dr. House has been getting on the show House lately; they just don’t seem to stand out any more. But, I have to say the episode “Joy” really got me thinking and left me a bit depressed.
We found out last week that …
Ace of Cakes
After a few episodes of Ace of Cakes, a Food Network show, you will never look at a cake the same way again. The things this group of friends can turn out using things like a blow torch and electric saws are more than cakes, they are works of …
Ugly Betty
Ugly Betty has no great stars to carry it out of anonymity, but it is a copy of the South American soap opera of the same name. I was able to watch the South American version in its entirety. It was super popular, though goofy at …
Naruto Episode 23 Subbed
