I’m not sure at what point Marlo Thomas decided that this fourth season would be the last of That Girl, but I’ve noticed all season long that there was an additional warmth between Ann Marie and Donald Hollinger. It’s hard to put into words, but it’s a comfort …

Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) goes to work in an ad campaign for the Air Force promoting women in the service in That Girl: Fly Me to the Moon. Robert Colbert, who I always recall mostly from Time Tunnel, appears as Major Brian James. He ends up jetting …

Caviar for Everything was the fourth episode of the first season of Mrs. Columbo, which was a spin off of sorts of the very popular and long lasting Columbo crime drama. Kate Mulgrew, once of Ryan’s Hope and later to be the star of Star Trek: Voyager, stars …

Jericho is one of the great tv shows out this past season. It was on hiatus and is starting again this Monday.

In M*A*S*H: Bananas, Crackers and Nuts, Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda) and Trapper John McIntyre (Wayne Rogers) have their first fight. They realize they’re just tired, and it’s time for a week in Tokyo. Thus, the two set in motion a plan to elicit their recreational time away …

It was just a few shows back where we got to see Opie Taylor (Ron Howard) stand up to a bully on The Andy Griffith Show. This time around, it’s not a bully that the young boy has to deal with it, but a new friend who is …

My almost two-year-old loves this show. It is one of her favorites, along with the Big Comfy Couch. I could do without watching it, but I like that she has a show or two that she likes, so I can have a bit of a break during the day.
As …

That Girl: Chef’s Night Out has some very nice comedic moments to it, and it’s a story that they hadn’t done before. After her parents leave on a trip, Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) and Don Hollinger (Ted Bessell) drop by the family restaurant to make sure everything is …

While I was not fortunate enough to possess the comics themselves, I grew up being interested in superheroes and looking forward to watching Batman on a Saturday morning as a child. He still is actually one of my favourite DC characters, who I’m a little sensitive about when it …

I decided to take a leap of faith tonight and watch Ghost Whisperer: Leap of Faith. Up until earlier this year, I was a big fan of the show. I wasn’t always happy with the direction it took (I hated it when Melinda’s best friend was killed …

Tales from the Darkside was a horror anthology show that ran in the early 1980s to the 1990s. It was kind of corny and hokey, but it was still a lot of fun. Set up like the twilight zone, it had a different story every week. A case of …

The Middle is a new show on ABC this fall. At the time of this writing, there have been six episodes shown. I have seen every one so far - some multiple times - so I think I have a good enough idea to write this review so far.
The …

The Office is my favorite show on network television. The entire case is great! At first, I thought that Steve Carell just dominated the series with his portrayal of the bumbling office manager Michael Scott. Carell’s sense of comic timing is superb. Most all the …

Only 16 more episodes remain of the series Monk. And, after last night’s episode “Mr. Monk Fights City Hall” I’m really finding myself not caring too much anymore. And, that’s kind of sad considering this was my favorite show at one point.
The episode, which featured Monk trying to save …

If you’ve read my reviews before, you know that one of the themes of TV shows that I don’t like are ones that focus on any kind of hand to hand fighting, such as boxing. These stories do not appeal to me. I tune out early and …

M*A*S*H: The Trial of Henry Blake focuses on Colonel Henry Blake (McLean Stevenson) facing a number of charges at a hearing in Tokyo. The charges, as always, come from the discontented brains of Major Frank Burns (Larry Linville) and Major Hot Lips Houlihan. Actually, in this second …

Is it me or is it more than a coincidence that Corey Feldman receives the poster for his new movie, “The Birthday”, on Corey Haim’s 35th birthday? Hmm… Oh wait, this is reality television, everything is like 50% planned or something, right? So yeah, in that case, it does …

I like watching Wife Swap because it gives me a look into other people’s homes! I admit it, I’m nosy! And Wife Swap allows me to peek into the living rooms of other Americans, PLUS I get to watch what happens when they let a total stranger …

Ok, I will admit it, while one of the stupidest Spongebob Squarepants epiosodes I’ve ever seen, the episode “Frankendoodle” is actually quite funny; in fact, it might be one of the funnier episodes I’ve seen in a while.
I’m still a bit confused about why a pencil lost by an …

1968 was a nasty year around the globe, and America took its share of the hits. It was another bloody year of war in Vietnam, making life at home difficult. Protests were everywhere. Martin Luther King was assassinated, and before the country could recover, Robert Francis …

The big bang theory is a comedic series I enjoy watching each week. I have seen all of the episodes that have aired. This episode, season 3, episode 18 the pants alternative was not one of my favorites. This episode relied too much on …

The Virginian: Dangerous Road was interesting to me mostly because the main guest star was Robert Pine. Pine became a household name to me when the TV series, CHiPs aired on television. The funny thing is that I didn’t even recognize him. I’d never seen him …

The first show of Columbo’s third season on the air was Lovely But Lethal, which featured Vera Miles as Viveca Scott, Martin Sheen as Karl Lessing, Vincent Price as David Lang, and Sian Barbara Allen as Shirley Blaine.

I’m just glad that CSI is back on track. To me, it lost its footing in the previous season, which coincided with Grissom’s sabbatical. No matter how of course the producers bandaged the situation, the crack evidently showed.
To me this was understandable, for how do you cope …

I had really high hopes for The Philanthropist when I first saw the commercials. It looked like an exciting action/adventure show with a real human element, and important moral message. The pilot lived up to those expectations. Telling the story of a billionaire who suddenly snaps …

The Doctor, Martha, and Jack manage to escape their supposed grim fate implied by the cliffhanger from the previous episode. One would think that they were trapped, but luckily, the Doctor manages to fix Jack’s time vortex manipulator to get them back to the 21st Century. It’s …

My wife and I were bored yesterday and wound up watching television. After surfing through some channels, we ended up with the show “Running in Heels.” It was OK but nothing special.
The show basically is a behind-the-scenes look at the fashion magazine industry with us getting an introduction to …

The message of Stargate: Infinity: The Look could probably be gleaned from its title. Remembering that this animated series was designed for the children watching, the moral of the tale is that clothes and accessories don’t make the person,.
The first part of the lesson comes when Harrison …

M*A*S*H: That Darn Kid is the final episode of season 10 and it’s a comedy focused one, unlike the previous season’s rather downbeat episode. For the second time during the series, Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda) is paymaster, a job he doesn’t look forward to at all.
Just when Hawkeye’s …

Since having my girls my life has been fulfilling and wonderful. But I would be lying if I said I didn’t get tired of endless reruns of the most popular shows on channels like Disney and Nickelodeon. I have seen so many episodes of shows like The …

I guess this is my day to vent about television commercials I find detestable.
Chief among the television ads that make me personally queasy are the series of commercials featuring Digital Max, the digital character with the blue sweater and obnoxious wisecracks. This character is supposed to influence live …

If the first seasons of Smallvill were how Clark Kent became Superman then even though he hasn’t put on the tights and cape this season could be called how Superman created the Justice League. He’s still growing and there are things he has to learn, but there is more …

As with every episode of Lost this one was a little weird. There was so much going on I won’t recap what happened. This episode was mainly about Sawyer/Locke and a little bit of Hurley.
It’s really nice to see the Locke character alive and well especially when …

I am a big fan of comics and their characters and cartoon shows. Batman is a character created by DC comics and there have been so many cartoon versions of this simple superhero. One of my favourite versions is a recent one named “The Batman.” This story unfolds little …

From the Earth to the Moon - Part 10: Galileo Was Right is probably my second favorite episode of this HBO mini-series from 1998. I absolutely adore everything about it, and I’m not into science at all. Yet, this story that deals with the science of the …

Have Gun - Will Travel: First, Catch a Tiger was the first show of the season for year number three. I love how it starts, with Paladin playing chess against himself. He tells Hey Boy that he doesn’t like doing that because “I always know what I’m …

Mash was an old TV show that took awhile to grow onto me but after watching it a few times I thought that the show ended up being great and there was so much that was funny about this show and I honestly think that this show was great. …

There have been a lot of things going on over the television, new shows coming up, and old ones suddenly stopped being shown; Well I am here to actually talk about the new funny show they have at ABS-CBN company. This show is called Banana Split; starred by 5 …

This was one of my favourite shows (well, at least until the last series which wasn’t so good!)
I’m into all things supernatural, magic and pagan, and I especially like my entertainment to have witches in it! Well, this programme has three (or more, depending on the …

Concluding the three part extravaganza, this episode manages to maintain all of the things that worked about the previous episode, while toning down on the stuff that didn’t. The pseudo-philosophical narration is still here, but it doesn’t play as large a part as it did when Mulder was …

Well, How I Met Your Mother is one of my most favorite show I’ve been watching since the starting of the episode. It is the best sitcoms on TV now. This comedy is about a guy name Ted is telling his two kids on how he met his mother. …
