“The Gungan General” is another gem in this season. It continues the plot from “Dooku Captured” where the Count has been taken away and imprisoned by space pirates while Anakin and Obi-Wan are trapped within a cave (thanks to the Count).
The pirates continue their belittling of Count Dooku …

The episode stars Ed Wynn as Lou Bookman, who is what they used to call a pitchman. That just …

The episode title makes it pretty obvious what the conflict of this story will be. In The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: Socrates’ Sister, Iphigenia, the sister of Socrates Poole (Christian Clemenson) arrives in town to defend one of the men accused of murdering Brisco’s father, along with …

Stargate: Infinity: Stones is a story that centers on Stacey, Major Gus Bonner’s niece. She’s a feisty, independent scientist. Actually, she’s probably a variation of Samantha Carter on Stargate SG-1, only with pink hair.
While on an alien world, she is given some special stones to wear as …

In 2007, NBC launched a musical competition show called The Singing Bee. The host was Joey Fatone, who was hot off his comeback success in Dancing with the Stars. I really enjoyed that show, much better than rival Fox’s Don’t Forget the Lyrics. Unfortunately for me, …

The beginning of the Star Trek legacy was back in 1966 with a pilot produced by Gene Roddenberry called The Cage. No one could imagine that this would be the birth of a legendary show that would last well beyond Roddenberry’s lifetime. In the mid-eighties with the …

On the DVD for War and Remembrance, Producer/Director/Writer Dan Curtis did commentary for selected scenes. With 30 hours of footage, it’s understandable why he didn’t do a full commentary. Instead, as a bonus feature really, Curtis talks over several scenes that are clipped together into this featurette …

Every so often there’s an episode from the Law and Order franchise that disturbs you and makes you feel uncomfortable. For me that was this episode of Criminal Intent. The episode starts out calmly enough, with a man trying to raise money, though he doesn’t say what. He tries …

“Fight or Flight” is the third episode in the first season of Star Trek: Enterprise, with the first two episodes consisting of the two hour pilot. I feel it was quite appropriate of the writers to do a character story this early in the series because it helps to …

Rod Serling’s Night Gallery was made up of a collection of different stories, some just a few minutes long, and others more detailed. This show is made up of three entries — Death in the Family, The Merciful, and Class of ‘99, and Satisfaction Guaranteed.

The Game Season 4 aired on the BET network in January 2011. This is the fourth season in production of this show and I for one am glad that BET brought it back for another season. The Game is a sitcom about football wives and husbands. It follows a …

I have seen a lot of movies and television series about how good triumphs over evil, but this one takes that game to a higher level. What will you do if you discovered that your friend is an angel who have been sent from heaven to make sinners atone …

I’m not sure if Best Week Ever is still on televsion, but “Best Week Ever” was a series which would be aired every week on VH1. I didn’t pay much attention to it at first since I realise that many of these programmed on Vh1 tend to be nothing …

Street Hawk: Female of the Species had Dennis Franz as a guest star. I’m not crazy about him, so that really didn’t do much for me. I was more intrigued by Paul Rossilli, who played a wealthy, highly public figure named Steven Cavanaugh. Think John F. …

This is not your typical television show about antiques. This show follows two American pickers who travel throughout the United States looking for discarded antiques and valuables that they sell to antique stores and collectors. Not only does the show follow the exploits of the two men …

My wife ran to Walgreens Saturday for a couple things and came back with some dessert; Snickers Brownie Ice Cream Sandwiches.

Technically, this is season two of the second evolution of Due South, or you could call it season four of Due South as a totality, or you could do what the DVD set does and just combine the last 13 episodes with these next few and call it the …

I haven’t seen the Simpson’s episode “Mr. Spritz Goes to Washington” until tonight. And, I think it was fantastic.
Some of the later Simpsons episodes have been kind of terrible. But, this one was actually pretty good. It reminded me of what made the show great to begin with.
In the …

There’s an exciting spark to Adam-12: Pick-up from season four, and it’s all because of a wonderful guest star appearance by Barbara Hale. Looking like the beautiful Della Street of Perry Mason, here she plays Mrs. Jessup, a mother called to the station to deal with her teenage …

Have Gun - Will Travel: Fight at Adobe Wells wasn’t one of my favorite outings for this particular western show. The half-hour didn’t flow for me. In many ways, it just felt like another story with nothing special in it to even make it memorable.
Richard Boone’s Paladin …

My daughter ended up watching another episode of the 1980s show Faerie Tale Theater this past weekend; Goldilocks and the Three Bears. And, much like other episodes of the show, this one proved to be pretty entertaining for pretty much everyone in our family.
They kept the same basic plot …

M*A*S*H: Depressing News is a very good episode that is also thought provoking at points. The setup begins when a truckload of 500,000 tongue depressors when they’d only ordered 5,000. It’s an obvious error, but it’s one that strikes a chord inside of Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda). …

I’m not a particular fan of The Equalizer. I tried watching it a few times when it was on originally, but it didn’t capture my fancy and neither did its star, Edward Woodward. He does have the look, very polished and whatnot, but he didn’t get my …

Sea Hunt isn’t a show I watched growing up, and I’ve never really been interested it, but lately I’ve started to give it more attention since it’s airing on television. It seems the first season which I’ve been watching was different from the fourth season and had a different …

Christmas specials are the best to watch on a boring day and there is nothing else on to watch. So far every Christmas there is hardly any good TV shows to watch but usually there is some Christmas special on and they are always good to watch. My favorite …

Wagon Train: The Stark Bluff Story just didn’t do anything for me at all. This is an episode from season seven of Wagon Train. It was one of the ninety minute, color episodes. Scott Miller as Duke Shannon gets the brunt of the story, and frankly, …

Gundam Wing is an undoubtly excellent series. Everything involved in the creation of Gundam Wing is incredible based on my experience from watching the whole series. The anime’s high quality effects and superb action blows up my mind every single time I watch it. And just like my other …

One of my favourite comedy sitcoms to watch back in the nineteen nineties when I was still a child was one called “The Nanny”, because I thought that it was both funny and interesting to watch. I remember at the time that there were still one or two jokes …
