The Ray Bradbury Theater: Banshee TV Show
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Banshee takes place in Ireland where the folklore is very strong. They have the legends of the banshee, and that’s what this half hour story tackles. The science fiction tale begins with American Douglas Rogers arriving at the Irish manor where he’ll be …
The Office: The Convention
The plot of this season The Office has been moving quickly; stretching away from the basic formula, which succeeded in the seasons before but had began to get old. It is still the same show, but with many new elements.
In The Convention we see little of Jim’s new office …
Tales of the Gold Monkey: The Lady and the Tiger
I just love Jack the one-eyed dog. He’s played by Leo, and this dog is phenomenal. He has character and must have been very well trained. He actually is now in the opening credits of the series. That started pretty early in the series. …
Cold Case Files tv show
Cold Case Files is beginning its new season in a few weeks, and this viewer literally can not wait! This show is just outstanding, if you ask me. Not only is it always interesting because it evaluates murder mysteries from over fourty years ago, which I always …
Highway Patrol: Prisoner Exchange Copter TV Show
This 30th outing from Season 4 of Highway Patrol, a half hour police drama starring Broderick Crawford as Chief Dan Mathews, is entitled Prisoner Exchange Copter. I was rather glad to see another show that gave us helicopters in the plot. If you go back and count …
Wendie Malick
I think Wendie Malick is pretty sexy for being an older woman. Not only that but I think she is a great actress. She has so much class and style and that makes her more attractive. She is a really good looking woman and has a nice smile. I like …
Tales of the Gold Monkey: God Save the Queen
Things are turning south for this show. While there is intrigue, I see indications of it going by way of Bring ‘Em Back Alive, and I think that’s a shame. In Tales of the Gold Monkey: God Save the Queen, Jake and Corky discover that someone they …
Top Chef - Show Your Craft
The producers of Top Chef just never disappoint. The second episode of the season and they have me hooked. From time to time on the show in the past, they will have a group of persons separate and apart from the judges judge the chefs. For this episode …
Harper’s Island Episode 9
Harper’s Island Episode 9 is more exciting than the previous one. This one is more dark and mysterious for me. The fact that the killer is lurking out there and anytime is trying to kill and get more victims make this a more exciting watch than the previous …
Dancing with the stars TV show
Dancing with the stars is a lame, boring, pointless and unbearable show to watch. I have seen many shows that sucked but this show takes the cake. I think the concept is so dumb, having celebrities pair up and dance with professional dancers and than they are judged each …
Adam-12 - Log 55: Missing Child
I have to admit that I don’t like the beginning this Adam-12 episode. It bothers me on many levels. As an animal lover, it’s unnerving and disturbing. It concerns an elderly woman (Alma Platt) who intentionally left her gas on in an attempt to euthanize her …
Nick at Nite
I grew up watching Nick at Nite. I was born in 1980.
I watched The Monkees, Get Smart, Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie, Green Acres, and countless other shows, such as Mary Tyler Moore.
I am sorely disappointed in Nick at Nite today. Sure, Roseanne, Home Improvement and George Lopez are …
The Real Ghostbusters: Season 1, Episode 47: The Bird of Kildarby
When a billionaire philanthropist transports an old Irish castle to Manhattan, it causes a fair amount of trouble. As it turns out, there are hundreds of spirits in there and they aren’t too keen on letting people in. Every time somebody enters, they promptly get thrown out …
Vampire High Season 1 Episode 12
In this episode, Merrill has a premonition about her death and is ready to face her fate, but Drew believes otherwise.
The show opens with Merrill being strapped to a chair screaming and pleading out, as she watches herself standing over her as she dies. Merrill can’t see the person …
Law & Order SVU: Sugar
Well, I obviously have watched the show Law & Order SVU a bit too much in my lifetime because the cases are becoming a bit too easy to solve.
Last night’s episode, Sugar, was a good example of this.
I didn’t even get to see the first few minutes of the …
The Twilight Zone: Mute TV Show
In another review I wrote a few minutes ago, I had said that the human mind is a powerful thing. That’s not exactly earth shattering news, but it is something that The Twilight Zone exploits and uses in many of its stories. It’s never done more so …
Batman: The Brave and the Bold: When OMAC attacks!
The cold open features Batman teaming up with Hawk and Dove to settle an interplanetary war. The two heroes, of course, butt heads over which way is more effective. Hawk wants to fight while Dove wants to talk. Batman eventually comes in and comes up with …
Curb Your Enthusiasm: The Survivor
Larry finally thinks he’s got a willing partner to cash in on his tenth anniversary present of a one time sexual dalliance with another woman; this time in the form of a sultry dry cleaner whose crazy about him. However, as usual, he misjudges the situation.
After a clumsy …
Mad Hungry with Lucina Scala Quinn: Lunch on the Go TV Show
Mad Hungry with Lucina Scala Quinn: Lunch on the Go featured pressed sandwiches, something Quinn says she likes to make for on the go activities. The half hour included a lunch that went beyond the sandwiches to include grilled veggies, like gas charged red peppers and squash.
She talked …
Doctor Who: Season 2, Episode 9: The Impossible Planet
This episode was a vast, vast improvement over the last one. Where “The Idiot’s Lantern” fell flat, this one fired on all cylinders.
The Doctor and Rose find themselves on a drilling rig after the TARDIS experiences what the Doctor refers to as “indigestion”. Before they can investigate, …
Kid Nation show
Kid Nation is a controversial new reality show in which 40 kids are ‘left’ in a ‘ghost town’ for 40 days to survive on their own… grown-up free.
The controversy surrounds whether kids should be left in a potential Lord-of-the-Flies situation where there are no moms and dads to tie …
Ice Road Truckers: New King of the Dalton TV Show
The season finale of Ice Road Truckers was called New King of the Dalton, which gives away part of the story from the beginning. Obviously, the laid back veteran Jack Jessee wasn’t going to be the king of the road again with this episode moniker.
A good part of …
Project Runway: Fashionable New Beginnings
I re-watched last week’s episode of Project Runway today and have to say I don’t think I liked it all that much really. It wasn’t a terrible episode but I really hate challenges that force designers to have to listen to clients and not be able to have a …
Indian idol
indian idol , which was started in india about 3years back….has been worst show i have ever seen!!..on indian television!
first year of this show was fun and people anticipated with full energy in this show …..i would\’nt lie but i also voted for few people!!….but!…as the years pass by …
Fast and Furious 4
I am a big fan of the “Fast & Furious” series. It is fully action packed, cool story, and the best thing is that it has fast cars, and I love fast cars, so for that purpose I just love to watch this movie whenever I got time. When …
UKTV
This is a Foxtel channel that I love mainly for Eastenders, the poisoness Pauline, scheming Ian and gossiping Dot are fantastic. I watched this show when it first started and I was living in the UK and for the past year (thanks Foxtel) I have caught up …
The Beverly Hillbillies (TV Show) - Something for the Queen (Episode)
“Something for the Queen” is an episode of “The Beverly Hillbillies”. The episode continues the storyline established in the previous episode, “A Bundle for Britain”. This episode has the Clampetts along with Milburn Drysdale and Jane Hathaway boarding a plane for London, England. The first half of the episode …
Law & Order SVU TV Episode: Disappearing Acts
Synopsis: Benson and Stabler want to arrest a suspected serial rapist. However, they are prevented from doing this by federal agents because their suspect (and one of his victims) is in the Witness Relocation program.
What I liked about this episode: I think the part of this episode I liked …
Planet Earth Episode 1
I picked up this series on Bluray after hearing how stellar it is. The first episode does not disappoint. While a few shots of the planet from space are seen, this documentary focuses on nature. We see various animals …
Smile Ok Please TV
The Smile ok please is the name of the TV programme, which is very very interesting and is the favourite programme of all the TV lovers. This programme is being telecasted in the POGO channel. Now the Pogo the channel, which is running its programmes on our …
CSI Season 1 Episode 23 Strip Strangler
I did not like this episode very much. I don’t know if this episode was funny or annoying really. It was just so immature, sort of a childish behaviour in a script. It made absolutely no sense to me.
In this episode, without considering Grissom’s wishes, the police contact the …
HPV Commercials
Whoever is broadcasting HPV commercials on television stations, deserves a metal as far as I am concerned. Because this disease is acutally a virus that when contracted, has the potential to cause cancer in women, I think that it is wonderful that there is being time devoted to …
Top Chef: Foreign Affairs TV Show
Top Chef: Foreign Affairs began with scenes from last week that shows again how Alex stole another contestant’s pea puree and lied about it. All fingers point to him, and now he’s on my naughty list. Of course, we haven’t seen the full proof that he took …
CHiPs: The Sheik
From November 1978, CHiPs: The Sheik is from the second season and stars, as always, Erik Estrada and Larry Wilcox. The fun of this particular outing is guest star Kario Salem, who plays the title role. Actually, he’s the son of a very wealthy man, and he …
Trinity blood episode 1 Flight Night
Trinity blood episode 1: Flight Night is a example of an post-apocalyptic vampire story done right. With a dash of humor and some thirteen cubes of sugar, Trinity blood manages to deliver a engaging story and endearing characters, such as Father Abel Nightroad. After Armageddon, vampires or “Methuselah” were …
Tales from the Darkside: A Case of the Stubborns
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 Andy Griffith Show: A Wife for Andy TV Show
In The Andy Griffith Show: A Wife for Andy, Barney gets on another kick that his friend and cousin, Andy Taylor (Andy Griffith), needs to get married. It’s a theme he comes back to a lot, but this is the first time that it involves Helen Crump (Aneta …
Professor Iris
One of my very favourite children’s shows when I was still just a small child was the show “Professor Iris”. It used to come on a local television channel in the early afternoons right after I would come home from school so I think I might have been in …
Psych: Any Given Friday Night at 10 P.M.
While better than the Monk episode that preceded it, Friday night’s Psych episode “Any Given Friday Night at 10 PM” was another weak attempt to put together a good episode with a football theme in honor of this weekend’s Super Bowl.
I’m not sure which is more dumb; having players …
Dawn Porter (Channel4)
Probably more famed for her work on BBC3, Dawn Porter has tackled numerous subjects in her often light hearted documentaries before.
With this Channel 4 series, Porter tackles topics that are a bit weightier and difficult than her previous exposes. In particular, her investigations into mail order brides and polygamy …
Legend: Revenge of the Herd
Like the prior episode, the ninth episode of this offbeat western begins with Ernest Pratt (Richard Dean Anderson) trying to come up with a good story for his latest dime novel that features his now alter ego, Nicodemus Legend. It’s all about elk, which he describes as cute.
The …
Collectible Trek featurette
Collectible Trek is a very information look at the world of Star Trek collectibles. This isn’t just a show and tell feature. It does much more than show an action figure and say how much it’s worth at the time this was filmed. It really hones …
Seven days season 3 episode 4 The Dunwych Madness
Frank Parker works for a secret government organization that uses alien technology to send him 7 days back in time when bad things happen so that he ca fix them.

Richard Devon plays a hitchhiker named …
Stargate SG-1: The Fourth Horseman Part 1
Stargate SG-1: The Fourth Horseman Part 1 has a lot of drama in it, some of which I liked and some of which I didn’t. The highlights, on both sides, include:
–We start off with more basketball playing. It’s just another sign that Daniel isn’t the Daniel of …
The Andy Griffith Show: Stranger in Town TV Show
I do enjoy The Andy Griffith Show: Stranger in Town and I agree with what it’s trying to convey. At the same time, I see the flaws and that’s what keeps it from being a really great show. There’s just a huge dose of common sense that …
Criminal Minds TV series
The Criminal Minds TV series fits well with all of the other crime investigation drama out there because it is different but still comfortable. The crimes are more graphic - if I wasn’t already desensitized by other shows I would say too graphic, and they probably are too graphic. …
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 46
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 46 The Briggs soldiers help smuggle Winry back into her home in Risembool where she is unexpectedly reunited with Ed, who has come to get his automail serviced. He tells her that she, Pinako and Den should leave the country, but Winry tells Ed …
