The Andy Griffith Show: Deputy Otis TV Show
The Andy Griffith Show: Deputy Otis features Hal Smith in his role as town drunk, Otis Campbell. The episode, from season two, begins harmlessly enough with Sheriff Andy Taylor (Andy Griffith) and Deputy Barney Fife (Don Knotts) having forgotten their keys to the sheriff’s office. This means …
The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest
“The Real Adventures of Johnny Quest” was one of my favorite animated television shows which aired in the 90s when I was still a child. The first place I used to watch it was on cable television channels until it finally started to air on Saturdays on a local …
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 …
You Deserve This House, TV program
A one-hour show presented by Ms. Amanda Lamb was a great change from other various reality shows dominating the TV landscape today.
What I liked about the show was its format. It was pretty straightforward. There were no contentious flare-ups and me-against-the-world drama between participants that seemed customary in almost all …

Disney’s Recess

Have Gun - Will Travel: The Reasonable Man
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Reasonable Man was a little weird to me, although I also like a few of the scenes. I get the sense that Richard Boone, who plays Paladin, could have done some excellent comedy if he wanted to. I’ve noticed from watching …
Stargate SG-1: Bounty
Stargate SG-1: Bounty gets mixed reviews, which isn’t that all surprising as season ten starts to wrap up. In this episode, Netan of the Lucian Alliance puts out a bounty on SG-1, all of whom are on downtime of some sort of another.
The oddest segment is Mitchell returning …
Gilligan’s Island - Diogenes, Won’t You Please Go Home TV Show
After watching this, I have to admit there is a light hearted feel the whole way through. But in contrast the Castaways go through a phase of insecurity and doubt all because Gilligan decided to write in his diary that offsets the balance. I find a lot of Gilligan’s …
Highway Patrol: Plant Robbery TV Show
Highway Patrol: Plant Robbery is not a story I like to watch really. By happenstance, I’ve seen it a couple of times, and neither viewing was all that pleasurable, simply because there’s no one in the story I like. In other words, none of the characters really …

Defying Gravity (ABC SERIES)
As another year of viewing pleasure draws to end, a sizable heap of shows lie cancelled, victims of the dreaded, unforgiving axe.
Amongst them, ABC’s sci-fi drama Defying Gravity: an ambitious tale of eight astronauts on a six year long exploration of the solar system. This show seemed to …

Stalemate is another good episode of the 1970 drama, The Young Rebels, which starred a magnificent young cast which included Rick Ely, Louis Gossett Jr., and Phillippe Forquet. Hilary Thompson is also on board, playing Ely’s girlfriend on the show.
I enjoy this show because it’s a theme that, …
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Lady of the Fifth Moon TV Show
For its 29th episode of season 6, Have Gun - Will Travel presents a very poetic show called The Lady of the Fifth Moon. I have a few thoughts about this episode, and they follow.

The Young And The Restless
The Young and The Restless has been in the 11 am time slot on CBS in my location as long as I can remember. While it’s a good show to those that like it, I find it rather dull, and increasingly confusing. The story lines aren’t something that make …
Friends season 1 episode 2

The Jeffersons (TV Show) - The First Store (Episode)
“The First Store” is an episode of “The Jeffersons”. It is one of the more emotionally-charged episodes of the series. By emotionally-charged, I mean the episode is designed to invoke a strong emotional response in the audience. It certainly had that affect on me. In this episode, George and …

Ghost Hunters: New Hampshire Gothic
I will admit it, last night’s episode of Ghost Hunters was actually pretty good. The team visited two places, one in New Hampshire and the other in Florida and found some pretty decent evidence this time around.

CSI New York Season 3 Episode 7 - Murder Sings the Blues
That was a strange episode and I really liked it. I wonder if those things are based on real things that happen in New York City or is it just a pure imagination. I guess to come up with something believable you have to base it on something real, …

The Virginian: The Awakening TV Show
As I understand it, Roberta Shore, who played Betsy Garth on The Virginian from the beginning, left the series to get married and retired from show business. In this fourth season, her character would be turning 20, so that’s definitely marrying age. I am very glad they …

M*A*S*H: The Price
M*A*S*H: The Price has a cute first few seconds with Colonel Sherman Potter (Harry Morgan) riding back into camp on his horse, Sophie, and singing a cowboy song. As a lover of the western and cowboy world, I found the entire thing to be really adorable.
A big part …
Hair Battle Spectacular: More Than Meets the Eye TV Show
Hair Battle Spectacular: More Than Meets the Eye was a little intense as it counts its way down to the final face off. Though I still believe that these folks need real names, humility, and perhaps even a check on reality, what they do is create some incredible …

Sense8 (TV series by Wachowskis)
Sense8 is an American Sci-Fi drama TV series with the ambition to do for TV what Matrix did for action films. Sense8 was written and produced by the Wachowskis, so if anyone could get away with such a claim it would be the creators of The Matrix themselves. I don’t …
Fame: A Musical Bridge
Fame: A Musical Bridge has two fairly decent plots going for it. Neither of them on their own really jumps out at me, but together they do enough to make this an okay show for me. It’s not one of my favorites, but I certainly don’t turn …
