Kyle XY: In the Company of Men
I haven’t’ been watching Kyle XY long, and I had began to fear that this show was a teenage soap opera with a science fiction backdrop, and it may be, but this week at least was less that way. It was still mostly about relationships but there was less …
Boston Legal Season 1 Episode 6
During this case Alan Shore was defending a client who wanted an injunction to stop further advertisement which were negative publicity against his candidacy. The client’s wife was a former girlfriend of Alan Shore.
Lori helped a lawyer who wants their son’s umbilical cord because he has cancer. Denny …
Tough Love Season 2
I watched the first season of Tough Love, and was a big impressed with the format. Tuning into the second season, Tough Love 2 has been just as entertaining. I was surprised, but maybe not so much that they brought back Taylor from the first season …
Art attack
Art attack is the name of a programme where new kinds of toy making are thought to children. In this programme using the unwanted or using any household ordinary materials, the new kind of funny toys or craft making is thought. It is a very good programme …
The Prisoner: Do Not Forsake Me, Oh My Darling
Now this is an intriguing show. The Prisoner: Do Not Forsake Me, Oh My Darling gives star Patrick McGoohan a bit of a rest. Most of the show, his mind is in another man’s body, so all we hear are his thoughts. That’s a nice way …
Stargate SG-1: Reckoning Part 1
Stargate SG-1: Reckoning Part 1 is another one of those shows that I have a lot of conflicting feelings about. In fact, that’s the case with all of the remaining season eight episodes. It’s a storyline that I don’t believe in and didn’t enjoy, although there are …
Grey’s Anatomy Television show
Talk about great surprises! I was reluctant to watch this show; there are so many medical shows out there. However, I was greatly surprised when I watched Grey’s Anatomy. The show has fantastic character development on top of the appealing storylines. Grey’s Anatomy sets a …
Days of Our Lives - Alice Horton’s Demise Week 4 TV Show
Days of Our Lives presented what turned out to be a month’s worth of drama and farewell to their beloved Alice Horton, as played by the late Frances Reid. This is unprecedented in daytime drama. Never before has a soap gone to this extent to celebrate a …
Broadway on PBS Series
PBS aired a short term series, “Stage on Screen” that featured live performances of plays that were filmed and broadcasted on American public broadcasting. Unfortunately the series did not last, but before it came to an end “The Man Who Came to Dinner” was aired in 2000. “The Man …
Surviving the Cut: Navy EOD TV Show
I definitely enjoy the Surviving the Cut. It educates the everyday viewer about the military elite and all that they have to do to get there. Well, not all because actually some of it is classified. The cameras frequently have to shut off to avoid showing …
Star Trek: Enterprise - These are the Voyages…
Star Trek: Enterprise - These are the Voyages… is the final episode of the fifth Star Trek series and the final episode of Star Trek’s nearly twenty year run on television. From 1987 to 2005, there was always a Star Trek series or two running, but 2005 ended that …
Goin Bulilit
I have always loved watching funny shows; I think it is a good stress buster. In the Philippines, gag shows and funny shows, and even sitcoms have become really few these days; mostly people have concentrated on getting Korean novellas, and foreign shows. If not, locally produced shows are …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Killed by Death
If you’re looking for something creepy to watch and don’t necessarily want to watch a movie, I would really recommend seeing the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode “Killed by Death.”
Hospitals, in my opinion, are creepy enough. But, what if you had some sort of invisible demon walking the halls …
Louis Theroux’s Weird Weekends: Porn, documentary
In one of his first Weird Weekend ventures; the ever engaging Louis Theroux sets about investigating the adult entertainment industry stateside. He meets with porn directors, porn actors, and their supporting spouses and even goes as far to make a cameo in a gay porn movie.
If you’ve never …
Giada’s Weekend Getaway
Giada’s Weekend Getaways is one of my favorite feature shows in Lifestyle Channel. I watch this show every time I can, and I have even stooped to watching re-runs. I always watch Giada de Laurentiis when she appears on other TV shows like Iron Chef because she is such …
Adam-12: Log 125: A Safe Job
In April 1971, the final episode of the third season of Adam-12, a half-hour crime drama, was aired. The show was entitled Log 125: A Safe Job. It’s a fairly decent show to end a year on. It’s not a big favorite, but it is an …
Penny Dreadful (2014 supernatural horror television series)
I’m someone who has always been fascinated with supernatural movies and series, so as soon as I heard about the Showtime original series Penny Dreadful, I could tell that it would be something I might be interested in watching. The clips that I’d seen of it only made me even …
Moesha
Moesha is a pretty cool TV show. It’s about a girl named Moesha who is played by the singer Brandy. She is pretty cool and funny. I like this show because Moesha is always faithful and good to her friends. She always teaches us that friends come first in life. …
M*A*S*H: The Light That Failed
A lot of M*A*S*H: The Light That Failed centers around a mystery novel that Charles receives and everyone wants to receive. There’s a lot of shared reading as the main cast makes their way through a book called The Rooster Crowed at Midnight. Then the group …
Justice League Unlimited: We are Legion
So, Lex Luther, the smartest man in the world is in jail, and they have him in an armored car with numerous police escort. He of course is going to try to escape but, the smartest man in the world, doesn’t use some gadget or trick, he overpowers …
Star Trek: Voyager - Drive
“Drive”, the season seven episode of “Star Trek: Voyager”, is Star Trek’s one and only “space race” themed episode to date, and unfortunately, it is neither exciting or intense - two qualities that I associate with racing. Granted, it is difficult to do a race in space that is …
A Man Called Hawk: If Memory Serves
A Man Called Hawk: If Memory Serves has an interesting premise, one I haven’t quite seen before, at least not in this type of presentation. The story revolves around Alex Chavin (Paul Butler), a Haitian man who remembers everything he hears and reads. It’s not a photographic …
Due South: Juliet Is Bleeding
This second season episode of Due South focuses more on Detective Ray Vecchio (David Marciano), with Canadian Mountie Benton Fraser (Paul Gross) somewhat secondary. It revolves around more old friends of Ray’s that are on the wrong side of the right and wrong tracks.
One part of the storyline …
Beast Wars - Call of the Wild
Beast Wars - Call of the Wild is an episode that I found a little on the boring side even though the basic concept is an interesting one: what would happen if the Maximals were forced to stay in beast mode for an extended period of time? Apparently, according …
Stargate Atlantis: The Lost Tribe
Stargate Atlantis: The Lost Tribe is the conclusion of the First Contact two-parter that guest starred Stargate SG-1’s Michael Shanks as Dr. Daniel Jackson. Daniel and Rodney McKay (David Hewlett) are being forced to finish a device that might kill off the wraith, who are the villains, or …
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Ethics
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Ethics is really a very enjoyable and thoughtful episode that effectively explores two sensitive topics and presents both sides of each topic equally: assisted suicide and testing experimental procedures on patients that, in one case, is willing, and the other case, too injured …
The Virginian: A Matter of Destiny TV show
Early on in The Virginian: A Matter of Destiny, there’s a nice little song sung by Randy Boone and Roberta Shore. It’s very upbeat and cute as they entertain at a party at Shiloh. These two would have made a great romantic pairing, but more than anything …
Simpsons TV Episode: Weekend at Burnsie’s
Well, the Simpsons repeat that was on last night wasn’t terrible but it also wasn’t what I was expecting it to be.
Weekend at Burnsie’s had so much potential. Homer injures his eye after befriending a bunch of crows only to make them mad at him later (I wonder what …
Adam-12: Ambush
Adam-12: Ambush is not just an excellent episode of this Jack Webb police drama, but it’s also remembered for being part of an episode of the Emergency! television series. Scenes from this show were shown in that program where paramedic Johnny Gage became obsessed with knowing how the …
Adam 12 - Logs 61 and 172
I’ve decided to combine these two “Adam-12″ episodes. My favorite of the two is “Log 61″ which evokes heart and compassion from Officer’s Reed and Malloy when they get called to residence for a possible break in.
The call comes from two young children, whose parents are out. …
TV show Lost
I watched Lost about three years ago, up until the end of the third season, when it was just getting too weird for me. No weird is not the word, unreal is how it was. The idea behind Lost is really cool, and the first few seasons are great, …
Stargate SG1: Into The Fire

The Ray Bradbury Theater: And So Died Riabouchinska TV Show
Oh no. It’s another story about a ventriloquist and his wooden doll, this one a female. I really don’t like these stories. I recently watched all of The Twilight Zone and there were several shows of this theme there. Then there was one on Mrs. …
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
I cry every time, every single time I watch Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, and I’ve watched it hundreds of times over the decades. I own the video and I rarely miss it when it airs on TV. What a classic, and one that pulls at your heart …
Saw IV
Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much from this installment of the Saw series. I mean, a fourth? What were they thinking? There’s only so much you can do with this story line!
Pleasantly surprised, I found out I was wrong. This is actually my favorite of all …
Dora the Explorer
Anyone who has kids (especially girls) is probably familiar with Dora the Explorer. And, it is definitely one of my daughter’s favorite programs.
When she first started watching Dora, I admit, I wasn�t that big of a fan of the show. The plots were a little too simplistic and very …
Spongebob: To love a Patty
Some episodes of Sponge Bob Squarepants are OK. Others are just downright gross.
The episode “To Love a Patty” falls into the latter category.
First, this is one of the stupidest episodes out there; and that’s of any show, not just this one. Spongebob makes a crabby patty that is so …
Trigun Episode 20
Trigun Episode 20 begins with a hurricane called Jacqueline hitting New Oregon, Milly and Meryl are stuck after unsuccessfully trying to follow Vash while he decides to go visit some old friends who live up in the sky in one of the Project Seeds ships that failed to crash …
Highway Patrol: Stolen Plane Copter TV Show
I’ve said it before, and I may just say it again, but it amazes me how many shows of Highway Patrol revolve around the helicopter. The actual ‘copter’ word is used in numerous titles throughout the series’ run. I suppose in the late 50’s when this show …
Adam-12: The Ferret
Adam-12: The Ferret includes one of those terribly sad stories where ignorance results in tragedy. In this case, a couple’s child is born dead after eating clay based on the recommendation of man who claims to be a reverend, but really is a believer in some very bad …
1000 Ways to Die
Not a lot of things make me paranoid, but the television show “1000 Ways to Die” might be number one on the top of that small list. Not a lot of people seem to know about that show either, as unlike some shows this one is not promoted as …
The Tyra Banks Show
Last summer I discovered “The Tyra Banks Show”, and currently, it is the only daytime talk show I would anticipate, sit and watch. It is hosted by the former very popular African American supermodel Tyra Banks, who also for some time in the past helped host “The Oprah Winfrey …
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 …
Witch’s Requirement TV show
This moving tale epitomises all the forbidden loves of this world. It depicts the difficulties faced by all the couples who want to be together despite discriminations, criticisms, and pressure from loved ones.
Perhaps many people will think that this is just another common, cliched Japanese romance television series. However, …
Street Hawk: The Adjuster
The 1985 crime drama series, Street Hawk presents as its third episode, The Adjuster, a show which guest stars Marjoe Gortner. I’m not a fan of Gortner’s, to be honest. He’s a little too quirky and off-kilter for my tastes. I’ve always been surprised that his …
Forever Knight tv series
As I was remembering the popular series “Renegade” recently, I also remembered the television series “Forever Knight” that used to air on local television around that same period of time. When the series “Forever Knight” started to air on the local television channel that brought it in the nineteen …
Stargate SG-1: Urgo
For the ultimate in SG-1 humor, Stargate SG-1: Urgo is the place to go. This season three episode guest starred the comedic genius of Dom Deluise in the role of Urgo. Dom Deluise has been around for decades, and he’s a very funny man. He’s done …
The Andy Griffith Show: Quiet Sam TV Show
From May 1961, The Andy Griffith Show: Quiet Sam shows once again what paranoia can do to people, especially a superstitious and easily spirited Deputy Barney Fife (Don Knotts). In this show, he is focused on a farmer named Sam Becker who seems reclusive and isn’t very socialable. …
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex: 2nd Gig Episode 4
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd Gig Episode 4 has Section 9 investigates a strange incident where a pilot dies during a training exercise and start hovering over the Refugee camp.
This was a pretty good episode and it was a really good episode and it was very …
