M*A*S*H: None Like It Hot
M*A*S*H: None Like It Hot deals with the latest heat wave to hit the 4077th as the Korean War rages on. It seems odd that this show precedes one that talks about a wind storm. Korea must have a lot of quick changing weather.
The thrust of None …

The Bill Engvall Show - The Way We Were
I don’t usually watch The Bill Engvall Show, but I did decide to tune in to see the episode called The Way We Were. The reason was because one of my favorite NASCAR drivers was doing a guest spot where he was actually playing a character and not …
Bones: The Perfect Pieces in the Purple Pond
Even though I still like the show Bones, I have felt it hasn’t been the same since Zach was arrested for murder last season. That’s why, in the episode The Perfect Pieces in the Purple Pond, I was glad to see him back in action; even if it was …

TNT’s “The Closer”: season six episode two “Help Wanted”
After the relatively uninspired premiere episode of The Closer’s sixth season, I wasn’t exactly expecting fireworks from its second episode.

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.

MacGyver: The Prodigal
MacGyver: The Prodigal has never been a favorite of mine. It’s high on people interaction, which I prefer over the action stuff, but this story just doesn’t do anything for me. Whenever it comes on, I’m more apt to change the channel than I am with most …

Fame: Expose
I always remember Fame: Expose fairly well, mainly because it guest starred Brian Patrick Clark, best known both for Eight is Enough and General Hospital. He’s always fun to watch, whether he’s a good guy or a villain, and he plays both with equal expertise. He has …

The Dick Van Dyke Show (TV Show) - The Bad Old Days (Episode)
“The Bad Old Days” is an episode of “The Dick Van Dyke Show”. This isn’t an episode that’s high up on my list of favorites from the first season or any of the five seasons. It’s not unwatchable, but it’s not one that I enjoyed excessively on my first …

CSI Season 6 Episode 21- Rashomama
The episode was intended to be really funny. And unlike, other episodes of that kind, this time, they have actually managed to make it funny. I enjoyed watching it very much.

Stargate SG-1: A Matter of Time
Stargate SG-1: A Matter of Time isn’t one of my favorite episodes of the series, probably because Michael Shanks is only in one scene, the last one. This is because his girlfriend had given birth to his child, and he took some time off. For me, Daniel …
Seven days Season 2 Episode 13
I really liked this episode. Not because it was realized greatly, because it wasn’t but because I really liked the plot. It was one of the best episodes of this show that I saw until now. It is about something that we all would like to happen to us. …
Who’s Your Pappa - Real Housewives of Atlanta
Now I’m a huge fan of Bravo’s Real Housewives series…especially their Real Housewives of Atlanta series, mostly for the reason that it showcases that Afican Americans like other ethnic groups can enjoy the finer things in life. The episode Who’s Your Pappa with Ne Ne trying to find …
“The Descent” (Season 12 Episode 2 of The Vampire Diaries)

RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 2
I was a little apprehensive about watching Rupaul’s Drag Race. I love drag queen shows and find that the “girls” are quite inventive with their makeup, clothes, and general personalities. But watching this show just reminded me too much of America’s Next Top Model. And no …
Fireball XL5: Spy in Space

American Idol 5
I have to admit I’ve never been the biggest Idol fan, generally only watching the early auditions to hear the interesting people that come out. This year, though, I’ve been watching it all the way through. Certainly an interesting year.
The show is good. I can’t compare …
Dating in the Dark
Judging from the majority of reality shows out today, I’m not the type of person to usually watch them. I feel like it’s all a bunch of pre-meditated and rehearsed drama. I get sick of seeing people arguing with eachother on national televison over rumors, over a man, over …
