I am not too fond of summer because of the dearth of good television shows. I end up making do with the slim pickings, and thus I am forced to sit through the television series Psych. Until now, I just cannot believe that it has survived for four seasons. …

Another superb episode from season one of Stargate SG-1 is Fire and Water. Would they really kill off Daniel Jackson? Of course not, but in the first twenty minutes or so, that is what the audience is led to believe.
One of the most memorable scenes is the …

One of the shows presented during Have Gun - Will Travel’s fifth season on the air was entitled simply, Lazarus. It’s actually an appropriate title, based on what happens to the main guest character, Boise Peabody. Boise is a colorful character, played by Strother Martin.
Richard Boone, however, …

I was looking for a new series to get started on when I heard about the Netflix sitcom “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt”. I didn’t expect it to be great, but the premise made me curious enough to want to find out what the series was all about, especially since I heard …

Whenever I am bored and in the mood for some noncommittal but somewhat thoughtful entertainment, I turn to my trusty X-Files. Although it has gone off the air nine years ago, there are nine seasons and countless episodes of this old favorite classic to wile away the dull hours. …

Do you need a good laugh?Or just want to look at the pretty people making a fool of themselves.

The topic of Max Headroom: Lessons has to do in part with censorship, including the use of profanity. Now that’s a still relevant issue that continues to be controversial in our true reality.
This half-hour program, which to me is both a comedy and a drama due its mix …

M*A*S*H: Smilin’ Jack is a symbol of the insanity of war in my opinion. It’s also an example of the human condition where we all need to be remembered for something, even if it’s something as ridiculous as a war record. Smilin’ Jack is a helicopter pilot …

Okay, I admit it. For some odd reason, I actually do like this tenth season entry for Stargate SG-1, even with Vala there. “Bad Guys” is really the only one I can think of that I can make that statement with. Of course, Vala is with …

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex Episode 2 is the strangest episode in the entire Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex anime, in both seasons, because it does not follow any of the main characters, it is not about any of them and doesn’t enhance the plot …

The Twilight Zone was a famous show that ran for many years in the 1950s. It was unique in that it had no recurring cast, except for Rod Serling, the narrator. Each episode was self-contained, and each one told the story of a person in extraordinary, usually supernatural, circumstances.
“Where …

Peter Falk returns in Columbo: Mind Over Mayhem, a pretty intriguing entry from the third season of the crime drama. There’s a very recognizable and talented guest cast, too.

It’s the fear of flying, and yes, actual flying, that is at the core of Whoopi: Airplane! from 2004. The ladies are playing their usual weekly poker game and the topic of their yearly getaway game came up. It had already been decided that they’d go to …

I think Jamie Oliver is a breath of fresh air. He throws the rule book out the window when it comes to cooking and he is pretty cute too.
I like the gap in his front teeth, his cheeky accent and hi little messed up boy hair… it helps that …

I cannot believe that Diddy has an entire show dedicated to finding someone to be his peon. I also cannot believe that people would actually clamor for this position. For instance, a message appeared on the red phone that Diddy’s car needed washing. …

Stargate SG-1: The Other Side is a good entry for season four of this sci-fi series. In it, SG-1 and Earth test their code of ethics, a charge led by the passionate Daniel Jackson.
At first, SG-1 is all for helping the Eurondans, a race that contacts them, desperate …

This episode is a letdown, really that’s all there is to it. Between the fact that it follows up the extra-ordinary “Soft Light” and comes right before the season finale, you’d think that this would be a big episode. Sadly, the opposite holds true and the whole …

Prison Break Season 2 Episode 13
In this episode things are continuing to get complicated. But there are some funny moments as well.
Michael and Lincoln are captured by the police and are to be transported back to prison. This could have potentially ended the story for everyone. But since the …

I just love watching Nip/Tuck. I have been a loyal follower of Seasons 1 to 4 and I can just give a two thumbs up for each and every episode. From the lead actors and the supporting characters to the star-studded guests, I can truly say that the show …

Sometimes, the series Family Guy can be a bit over the top. A lot of times, that can take away from the show. Other times, like in the episode “Prick up Your Ears,” it can be a good thing because it was a great way to bring people’s attention …

This episode has some action in it, but not a lot, and it certainly is not very exciting. Despite the fact that we have seen very little of Rock Lee in the previous episodes, everything we have seen points at him as being quite powerful, but he is nothing …

It was a perfect beginning of the season, and also for the series. From this episode the new era has began, and this show ran for 10 years. The episode began showing that all of the friends are in the coffee house better known in the series as the …

This episode is all about epic confrontations. Aang faces off against Ozai, Zuko faces off against Azula, and the old masters start to take back Ba Sing Se.
In part 1, you started to see Azula’s shell start to crack. Well, that crack has spread and Azula snaps …

“Crossroads” is another Jaffa oriented episode of Stargate SG1. As I have said previously in other reviews, I am not a big fan of all the Jaffa storylines. Some yes, but there are others I find very boring. This is especially true when Bra’tac is not …

Vengeance Trail was the 15th episode of the fifth season of The Virginian. This particular outing focuses quite a bit on newcomer, Don Quine, who plays Stacey Grainger. He’s just too wooden, and his character here is suddenly very idealistic compared to just weeks ago when he …

At first I did not understand the appeal of The Closer show. I couldn’t figure out what it was- on one hand it was a detective show, similar to law and order, on the other it was full of comedic moments and exaggerated characters. I simply did not know …

Hellcats: Beale St. After Dark was a pretty good next episode for this television series. I’m actually surprised at how much I’m liking this show, but the acting has been surprising and the plots have been more interesting than I had anticipated.
In this hour, law student Marti, who …

Here is yet another reality show that I happen to watch when I have the time and/or opportunity. Dancing With the Stars is so corny. Yet you get drawn in when you realize that the most uncoordinated celebrities try out for the thing and are paired …

This was a very well done and satisfying episode as everything came together quite well and all the …

When Leverage started out its first season last year, it showed great promise. I was excited to watch because it sounded like Robin Hood to me. It also reminded me of The A-Team in the 80s which I followed diligently. Leverage revolves around a story about thieves who band …

I am no fan of cartoons, really. I thought that cartoons are all for kids and that I won’t learn anything out of it. It was simply slapstick made to make the kids laugh. I wanted to watch informational shows or any other shows that can show not only …

While waiting to watch the new GI Joe movie last night, I ended up flipping through channels and watching re-runs of popular television shows, including the show Bones. I came across an episode I have seen before but not in its entirety. It turned out to be an interesting …

This one is a bit sad to be honest, not only is Shawn’s girlfriend (who I just realized …

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Ghost of Moby Dick, episode 14 of the series, began in a way that made me leery. I’m not big on using animals as guinea pigs or anything remotely like this. The opening here has a husband and wife …

The problem with The Virginian, as I’ve said before, is that it bores me more often than not. I couldn’t watch it as a kid because none of the characters captured my heart or imagination. This episode, The Exiles, exemplifies those feelings. It’s a show towards …

MTV may be the worst channel on TV. Well not quite, I believe BET holds that title.
Anyways, if you want mind numbingly stupid and irritating programs to watch, MTV is your channel. From shows such as My Sweet 16 to Flavor of Love, the madness just does not …

Office office , A rib tickling comedy show broad casted on SAB tv daily. Though a comedy show it shows the reality of Indian government office. The show shows how a common man needs to bribe and go around here and there for getting his work done. From peon …
