Tom and Jerry
Tom and Jerry is one of my favorite cat and mouse shows! I think this show is so funny! The funniest thing about it, is that the cat can never get the mouse! I think the music in the show along with the sound affects is what makes the show …
The-N
The-N is a very popular channel for young adults. Nickelodeon is actually what made the-n but it’s more grown up. The-N has changed a lot since it first came out. first of all it used to only be at night, from six pm to six am, Noggin used to …
Directv
I have been a Directv customer for several years, and we are moving to a different town, and a rental that wont allow satellite services. So, I had to cancel our Directv, and went with cable. Well, upon calling to cancel our service I checked to see what the …
Outsourced: Pilot TV Show
Outsourced, the pilot, is a show I watched along with a bunch of other new Fall 2010 TV comedies just to see if I have misjudged the current style of comedy. You see, I prefer the classics, like The Andy Griffith Show and The Dick Van Dyke Show. …
Top Chef: Just Desserts TV Show
The latest show from Bravo is another version of the successful property, Top Chef. Top Chef: Just Desserts is hosted by Gail Simmons, who also judges regular on the original Top Chef competitions.
I’m going to start with what I didn’t like about this show. It took a …
The Office: Frame Toby
“Frame Toby” is the Office episode originally airing on November 20, 2008. This was an unusually weak episode, with few laugh-out-loud moments and central characters acting in very odd ways.
My biggest complaint was the way Michael acted throughout the episode. We all understand that he hates Toby, …
Batman: The Brave and the Bold: Legends of the Dark Mite
Words can not express how amazing this episode is. It’s written by Paul Dini, which is a major indicator of the high quality you’re in for. It also features Bat-Mite voiced by Paul Reubens.
The episode is just so geekily awesome. There are references galore to the …
Ben 10
Ben 10 is one of my favorite cartoon shows. At my age it is weird to be crazy about cartoon shows, but I just can’t stop myself to watching cartoon shows, they really helps me to stress out. “Ben 10″ is kind of cartoon show, which I really enjoy …
Sea Hunt: Ransom TV Show
Ransom aired towards the end of Sea Hunt’s second season. It’s all about the need to recover some computer memory tapes that are being held for ransom. Here are some thoughts on this half hour episode of the adventure series which starred Lloyd Bridges.
–Okay, firing into the …
Survivor Nicaragua: Fatigue Makes Cowards of Us All TV Show
Survivor Nicaragua: Fatigue Makes Cowards of Us All is the 2nd episode of the current season where its older versus younger members. In my mind, I have to wonder about the fairness. The challenges in Survivor tend to be physical. I think the older tribe is …
NCIS: Agent Afloat Season 6, Episode 2
This episode was mostly about Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo, or rather Agent Afloat Anthony DiNozzo. Anyone who is a huge fan of Michael Weatherly, like myself, enjoyed “Agent Afloat” tremendously.
There were two stories going on….which usually happens on NCIS. One was the investigation itself. Supposedly, a …
Rising Damp
Rising Damp is an ancient British comedy classic, which was aired on television originally between 1974 to 1978. It stars the late Leonard Rossiter as the mean, grumpy landlord, Rigsby, and Rigsby is an absolutely classic comedy character. I used to enjoy watching this as a kid …
CSI Season 5 Episode 13- Nesting Dolls
I thought this episode was really interesting, just from the point of view of the human drama of it. I don’t know if the investigation was really that interesting or exciting. I do know for sure that the acting like a Russian part did not go well. It was …
The Virginian: Run Away Home
The Virginian: Run Away Home is the second show I’ve noticed that was redone several years later as an episode of Alias Smith and Jones (ASAJ), which was a favorite show of mine, called The Girl in Boxcar #3. I recall an article done during that time that …
That 70s Show: Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy
I haven’t watched too many of the later That 70s Show Episodes, so it was definitely an adventure watching the episode “Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy.”
The main story line of this one is kind of cute. You have Leo having a crush on Donna; something that leads to a …
That Girl: The Defiant One
While shopping, Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) befriends an eight-year-old black boy named David (George Spell) who steals a candy bar. Though the boy initially tells her he lives on Park Avenue, Ann scoffs at it, so he invents a story about living in a one-bedroom apartment filled with …
The Mentalist - TV show
The first few times I saw this show, I didn’t really grasp the concept and couldn’t figure out why a police investigative team would have some random guy (who used to be a con artist) on their team. It just seemed like a stretch. Of course, I have been …
Dora the Explorer: Rapido Tico
I ended up coming home yesterday to my daughter watching Dora the Explorer on TV (thank you Direct TV for all those kids’ channels). As I sat down relaxing, I ended up watching one episode with her “Rapido Tico.”
This episode was basically dedicated to their friend Tico the squirrel, …
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 …
Sea Hunt: Hit and Run TV Show

Pretty Little Liars - episode 104
I’ve been a fan of the Pretty Little Liars book series for years so naturally, I was thrilled when I heard it was becoming a television series. The first three episodes were well done and I thought they did a good job of easing people into the concept of …
M*A*S*H: Pressure Points
In M*A*S*H: Pressure Points, Colonel Sherman Potter (Harry Morgan) gets overly snappy and testy towards the personnel, especially Hawkey Pierce (Alan Alda) after returning from a brief trip away. It all stems because Hawkeye has to operate on one of Potter’s patients. The colonel becomes more intolerant …
The Moment of truth TV show
“The Moment of truth” is one of the few reality TV shows I like to watch. This show really fulfils the meaning of reality TV show. “The Moment of truth” is all about speaking the truth, and I mean to say only “truth”, in front of millions of people …
Wagon Train: The Kate Crawley Story
Barbara Stanwyck returns for the second time in season seven in Wagon Train: The Kate Crawley Story. The story revolves around her and wagonmaster Chris Hale’s romance, something that was hinted at in the season opener, The Molly Kincaid Story.
Stanwyck is a superb actress, and she pulls off …
Trinity Blood episode 14
On Trinity Blood, in actuality there is little that is kept sacred such as the oaths Father Abel Nightroad made to himself and was forced to break them, as a sign of his sins appeared upon his flesh with childish murmurings of pain. On Trinity blood episode fourteen: “The …
That Girl: Phantom of the Horse Opera
That Girl: Phantom of the Horse Opera is a really interesting show that features Sterling Holloway as Everett Valentine. Valentine used to play the organ when silent pictures ran in theaters. He provided the musical accompaniment.
When the show opens, Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) can’t sleep because she …
CSI: New York Damned If You Do TV Show
Damned If You Do was the third outing for the seventh season of CSI: New York, and I can’t say that I liked their choice of opening song which was a throwback to Miami Vice. It’s so strongly associated with that show that I can’t believe the music …
NCIS
NCIS is a crime drama. It stands for Naval Crime Investigation and that’s what it is. They deal with crimes that involve the navy. While on the surface that may sound boring it’s actually not. NCIS is a very well done show and is …
Rock of Love Bus (VH1)
I never saw any of these Rock of Love with Bret Michaels episodes from the previous seasons. But it is my understanding that this will be the final Rock of Love. My question is, why wouldn’t it be the last one? If he’s planning on …
House: Adverse Events
It was kind of strange watching a House episode without character James Wilson having at least a small part in it; as was the case with the episode Adverse Events. I certainly hope they aren’t writing him off the show completely and he’ll be back soon. It’s just not …
Eureka Seven episode 43
As the two lovers who cast away all doubt and plunged straight into the depths of their own desire now must wonder if their decisions were the correct ones. Welcome to Eureka Seven episode 43 “The Sunshine Underground”, a tale of high pressure and strained emotions with a blood …
Beast Wars - Feral Scream, Part Two
Beast Wars - Feral Scream, Part Two is an episode that suffers from the same problems that the first part did and quite unfortunately the problems are actually worse this time around. Visually, this episode is also not as impressive as the first part mainly occurred during a thunderstorm …

Beauty and the Beast TV show
As a person whose a big fan of police dramas and classic love stories, I was skeptical about this show at first; though I decided that it wouldn’t hurt to give it a shot since Kristin Kreuk stars in it. Figured since she was a pretty good actress in …

M*A*S*H: The Grim Reaper has Captain Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda), chief surgeon at the 4077th unit, so incensed at Colonel Victor Bloodworth, played by Charles Aidman, that he actually gets into a fight with him at the bar. I’m just not into the shows where Hawkeye gets violent. …
Family Guy: Stewie B. Goode
I was watching the Family Guy episode Stewie B. Goode last night for probably about the dozenth time and I have to say it is still a somewhat funny episode.
There are two main plot points to this one. First, Peter gets an opportunity to complain about just about everything …
Watch What Happens: Live
Watch What Happens: Live is new to the Bravo Channel in 2009 and personally, I think it needs to go away and be a memory. I just wasn’t impressed at all by what I saw. The only reason I tuned in was to see who the Top …
Spongebob Squarepants TV Episode: Krab Borg
My kids spent a great deal of time watching Spongebob Squarepants over the course of the weekend because a couple of stations had marathons on and it was too cold to send them outside.
As is usually the case, the same few episodes aired at least three different times over …
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 …
The Ellen Degeneres Show - Preparing for Chris Matthews
It’s no secret I am in love with Ellen. But like i’ve said over and over again, not the Portia kinda love…But apparently, I’m not the only one. On a previous visit to the show, the Ellen Degeneres Talk Show that is, Mr. Chris Matthews himself proceeded to engage …
The X-Files 2Shy Episode
I found this episode of the popular 1990s American television show “The X-Files” very interesting since it covered the danger of online dating in a very twisted and scary way. This was because this episode, “2Shy” was about a serial killer who meets his victims online, and then …

Picking up after “Jedi Crash” with Aayla Secura, Ahsoka, Anakin Skywalker, and their band of clone troopers stranded on a hostile planet with a pacifist race of beings, “Defenders of Peace” is the series’ fourteenth episode and it centers around a Separatist spacecraft which arrives to test a new …
How to Get Away with Murder, TV show
I’m not a huge fan of Shonda Rhimes. For everyone that doesn’t know her, she is the creator of shows like Grey’s Anatomy, Private Practice and Scandal, she likes to mix her characters and give a lot of drama to their lives. I’ve seen a lot of her shows and …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Some Assembly Required
While the first season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer tends to go for laughs, the second season of the series is a bit more morbid; as the episode “Some Assembly Required” shows.
In this episode, rather than fighting vampires (with the exception of the one in the very beginning), buffy …
Due South: The Man Who Knew Too Little
An intriguing little episode from the first season of Due South is called The Man Who Knew Too Little. I like the plot about a witness to a crime who at first admits he saw what happened and can identify the villains. In reality, though, while he …
