Maybe it was because I wasn’t feeling …

The Return of the Sorcerer was the third season opener of Night Gallery, and it was just plain weird. This is not a show that I would expect for a season premier or any place vital. It was controversial and just plain sick.
Normally I like Vincent Price. …

I think the difference between this and the regular Apprentice is that …

I’m conflicted about Seven Brides for Seven Brothers: Winter Roses. While it’s a wonderful story of love and has superb drama and angst, I just regret the choice made to end the episode. I wasn’t surprised back in 1983 when I first saw it, but I felt …
