TV Reviews
Art Attack
I am a workingwomen and I get very less time to watch the TV at home. But still I have some favourite programmes of mine. Such as the cartoon shows and some movies, I also love to watch some serials, which are telecasted especially on weekends. …
Alfred Hitchcock Presents TV Episode: Into Thin Air
Everyone was asleep early last night so I found myself watching another episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents; Into Thin Air.
I have grown to love this old show. But, this was an episode I have to admit I was not overly impressed with.
The episode is about a woman who checks …
Naruto Episode 15 Subbed
Back to the action, or so it seems, episode fifteen opens with Kakashi and Zabuza starting their fight. Kakashi tries to end it quickly with his sharingan but Zabuza moves in for the attack, and stereotypically the fight is a single move over-exaggerated to seem dramatic and exciting, and, …
The Twilight Zone: Living Doll TV Show
The Twilight Zone: Living Doll is yet another one of those shows that make me shudder from the start. I’m not interested, I don’t like it, and I hate watching it. It was a nightmare sitting through it even one more time before doing this review.
Living Doll …
The Virginian: Dark Destiny TV show
Season two was winding down for The Virginian when the episode Dark Destiny aired. One interesting thing that I’ve noticed about these second season episodes. Once Randy Boone joined the cast, I like them better. I noted in many of my first season reviews that I …
Kim Possible: Steal Wheels
Kim Possible is a show on Disney about a cheerleader and her bumbling sidekick (and his pet naked mole rat) who repeatedly saves the world. It is a very cute cartoon aimed mainly at teens, but also enjoyable for adults- or at least this adult.
In Steal Wheels, the first …
Out of This World: Playing with the Power TV Show
I very much enjoyed Out of This World: Playing with the Power. This was the second episode of the series, and it made me laugh, and I just had a good time watching it.
One of the good things about the show is that the very first scene with …
Have Gun - Will Travel: A Knight to Remember TV Show
Have Gun - Will Travel: A Knight to Remember from December 1961 has one of the fun openings that I really get a kick out of seeing. In the gambit, Paladin, played by Richard Boone, is fencing. He’s showing off a bit for a young lady, who …
Nip/Tuck
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 …
South Park - Eat, Pray, Expell Air
First, I don’t know if the last word of this title was offensive or might have been thought of sensitive, so I just cut it out of the title and the rest of the review. If you have seen the episode, you will understand what the word is, so …
M*A*S*H: Crisis
In M*A*S*H: Crisis, the 4077th is without important supplies and that called for drastic action. Colonel Henry Blake (McLean Stevenson) decides to assign duties to his officers to help get through the crisis. This has them all facing off against one another as they try to get …
Justice League Unlimited Season One: Ultimatum
Ultimatum is the ninth episode of season one of Justice League: Unlimited. Is is also one of the weakest episodes in the series, although it does start a major plotline involving the United States government.
This episode introduces a group of young heroes so forgetable that I do not …
The Young Rebels: Dangerous Ally TV Show
In The Young Rebels: Dangerous Ally, the Yankee Doodle Society suffers the down side of keeping their activities secret. No one in their town of Chester knows about their covert fight against the British, not even Jeremy’s father or Elizabeth’s uncle. This leads to some dangerous results, though, …

Star Trek: The Next Generation - Booby Trap
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Booby Trap is an episode that is quite good. What I particularly like about this episode is the music. It is exceptionally good in achieving a sense of wonder and awe in scenes that warrant it, while in other scenes, projecting tension and …
Bones: The Gamer in the Grease
Sorry it took me so long to take the time to write about Thursday’s episode of Bones; The Gamer in the Grease. I had intended on watching it Thursday night and discovered it was difficult to do while taking care of a sick baby and trying to get my …
Healthy Appetite, In the Comfort Zone
I absolutely love cooking shows. I watched this one because the chef (whose name escapes me) was making peppered pork, a special kind of garlic mashed potatoes, and a puttanesca. I watched this woman chop parsley, onions, and make a dressing for a new kind of …
CHiPs: Quarantine
From the last part of the second season, CHiPs: Quarantine gives the officers at the California Highway Patrol headquarters two different things to worry about. First, they think they have a bomb in the building. Second, the youngster who brought the possible pipe bomb into the building …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Downwind from Gettysburg TV Show
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Downwind from Gettysburg starts out reminding me of the living Mr. Lincoln exhibit from Disneyland. I’ve seen that marvelous show numerous times over the years, and it’s marvelous the way Disney created a Lincoln who could stand and talk to the visitors.
In Downwind from …
Psych: Weekend Warriors
Like I mentioned in another review, I ended up watching a couple more episodes of the show Psych before bed last night. One of those episodes was a half-way funny episode entitled “Weekend Warriors.”
This one has Shawn and Gus posing as Civil War reenactors after someone appears to be …
Diagnosis Murder: Lily TV Show
Diagnosis Murder: Lily centers around an old friend of Jack’s, a woman named Sandy Hoyle, played by Romy Windsor. She’s been battered, but that’s not the only surprise. It turns out she’s a call girl. She also plans to retire, based on a blackmail tape she’s …
One Litre of Tears (Ichi Rittoru no Namida)
This japanese series used to be a big hit in japan - and when it was subbed in North America - it became even more widely known. Based on a true story of a young girl named Aya. She is an ordinary girl - except she has an incurable …
Ghost Hunters: Mordecai House
Wow, who would have thought the Ghost Hunters Episode “Mordecai House” would turn out to be a big waste of time? After all, you have a house that is supposedly very haunted and a second investigation on a world war II battleship. But, that’s exactly what happened.
The first investigation …
Cowboy Bebop episode 14
Imagine a world where every thing is black and white. A world where everything has rules that it can never defy. A lonely stark world, very much in contrast to our own world. This is the world where kings and queens still rule, even if the world beyond has …
Due South: Chicago Holiday: Part 1
Due South: Chicago Holiday: Part 1 was the first of three somewhat strange episodes of this series in my opinion. This two-parter probably has enough dialog for a solid thirty-minute show. What is included instead is a lot of music, and odd music at that, while the …
M*A*S*H: The Tooth Shall Set You Free
In M*A*S*H: The Tooth Shall Set You Free, Major Charles Emerson Winchester III (David Ogden Stiers) has a nasty toothache but refuses to see a dentist, actually denying he’s in pain at all.
While the comedy portion of the show centers on Winchester, the drama is about the latest group …
Miley and Billy Ray Cyrus on Ellen
Miley Cyrus is perhaps one of the most amazing teenage girl whom brings her dad along to Ellen’s interview.
And this super cute and multi-talented including amazing singer gave a superb appearance on Ellen’s show. If you have watched Miley and Billy Ray Cyrus on Ellen, you would …
Quantum Leap: season one “The Right Hand of God” television show
Quantum Leap is a science fiction series that aired in the 1980s to early 1990s. Each story stands alone, there is very little arc. The premise of the series is that a scientific experiment has propelled the soul/person of a scientist into the bodies of other people …
The Andy Griffith Show: Guest of Honor TV Show
The Andy Griffith Show: Guest of Honor isn’t one of my favorites. I love this series greatly, but even when funny, not every show is one that I adore. This second season entry has Mayberry celebrating Founders’ Day by randomly selecting a passerby to be their Guest …
Who Do You Think You Are? (NBC Television Series)
History and genealogy have been interests of mine for years. I also have curiosity about celebrities. So, I was happy when NBC did its series “Who Do You Think You Are?” It was seven episodes of celebrities researching their family history. I also saw some …
Bones: The Baby in the Bough
I’ve been working half days all week and got a chance to watch an afternoon re-run of the show “Bones” yesterday; The Baby in the Bough. I missed the first few minutes but will admit it was a pretty good episode.
Basically, Booth and Bones are called in to investigate the …

New Girl ,’A Chill Day in’, TV show
As I wrote my review of the episode Road Trip I really feel the need to write my review of episode ‘A chill day in’. These two episodes are a long way from the episodes we got used to watching in these last two seasons which are sometimes good but …
Masquerade: The French Correction
Masquerade: The French Correction is a pretty decent entry for this hour-long spy that hit the TV screen back in March 1984. However, one of the bad things is that they failed to create new ways of explaining the story. In the beginning, Lavender (Rod Taylor) always …
The Flintstones: Reel Trouble
I upgraded my Direct TV package yesterday and, as a result, was able to get a channel that was showing Flintstone’s cartoons. The one that was on last night was called Reel Trouble and was actually kind of cute.
Fred is obsessed with taking pictures of Pebbles so Wilma makes …

There is a lot of craziness when Ross arrives home from China. On his way out there, he runs into one of his old classmates, and they instantly fall for each other. Rachel is waiting for him to arrive at the airport with flowers in her hand, waiting to …
Emperor’s New School: A Giftmas Story
We spent a great deal of time watching Christmas episodes of various shows last week; including the one on Emperor’s New School: A Giftmas Story.
This one actually proved to be one of the funnier ones.
Since this show takes place in a part of the world that hadn’t discovered Jesus …
Sea Hunt: The Raft TV Show
The 39th show of Sea Hunt’s second year was also the last of the season. It was entitled The Raft. The premise was the deep sea diver Mike Nelson as played by Lloyd Bridges went to a location off the coast of the Channel Islands to find …

LAs Vegas, The Pilot
My son introduced me to a great cable television series that I had not seen before. It was called Ls Vegas and it is a really good series. I was truly amazed that this was as good as it was.
So my son purchased the first season on DVD …
That Girl: Never Change a Diaper on Opening Night
That Girl: Never Change a Diaper on Opening Night is essentially the first regular show after all of the introductions have been done in the first two showings. In this episode, Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) is auditioning to be accepted into an acting workshop. The complication is …
Band of Brothers episode 5 “Crossroads”
Band of Brothers episode 5 Crossroads has Easy Company facing off with German resistance and is centered on Richard Winters who has been promoted and has to give a detailed report of the battle.
This episode was really intense and the war scenes in it were insane. You …
Cribs show
Cribs is a show on television that shows you celebrities or famous people’s houses. You would think that this would be a good show but I hate it. I thought it was a good idea at first but I generally don’t like the show.
The reason I don’t like …
Make Me a Super Model
Ever since the success of America’s Next Top Model, several shows have gone out of their way of duplicating the show while trying to add a twist that makes it different.
Other than having male models and letting America decide who is voted off, there really isn’t much difference between …
Judge Judy
I just adore Judge Judy. She is a real Judge called Judith Sheindlin who, in this show, presides over real cases from the small claims court. The show has been running from 1996 and is still being made and in every episode we see two or three …
MacGyver: To Be a Man
There’s some beautiful scenery in the To Be a Man episode of MacGyver from the first season. It actually reminds me a bit of a western. I can see John Wayne riding along the places where Mac is trying to escape from the bad guys.
In MacGyver: To …
Ghost Hunters: Beechwood Mansion and the Garden State
Yeah, I have to say I am now halfway through the second season of the show Ghost Hunters and am actually more disppointed in this one than I was in the first season. The episode “Beechwood Mansion and the Garden State” is a good example as to why.
Basically, you …
Green Acres - Hawaiian Honeymoon
Green Acres - Hawaiian Honeymoon is the second to last episode of the series, although the writers were not aware of this at the time. Had they been, I do not think that they would have used this script. This episode is more about creating a spin-off series with …
Remembering The Fall Guy An American Classic featurette
Remembering The Fall Guy An American Classic is a wonderful featurette that gives fans some insight into just how The Fall Guy came about. I found it to be interesting and a lot of fun. I broke into a smile at several points, in fact.
Series creator and …
Prison Break Season 3 Episode 2- Fire/Water
Prison Break Season 3 Episode 2- Fire/Water
The story continues as Michael tries to figure his way out in the Sona prison. Lincoln’s character is now taking a more active role in the series. I guess that makes sense, since he is on the outside. It’s too bad they made …
