Dr. Franklin’s mentor comes aboard. The reunion is tainted, however, when some ancient alien artifacts that he brought aboard come to life and takeover his assistant, who proceeds to go on a rampage, killing several people aboard the space station.
The plot is fairly simple, but it’s generally well …

Numbers is one of the best shows on tv right now! CBS definately scored big when they brought this one out. It starts out with a crime being committed, then the FBI coming in to solve it. One of the FBI agents, Don Eppes, has a brother, Charlie, who …

This episode had promise, but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to it. It had all the makings of a solid stand alone, isolating the agents, giving them a ticking clock against an unnatural enemy, and even allowing for some character conflict, but the execution wasn’t as good as …

America’s Next Top Model is one of those shows I’m pretty ashamed to admit I find myself watching, and I can’t explain why I continue to watch it, other than the fact that it’s mindless drama. Even though it’s supposed to be a reality show, watching it for …

Dora the Explorer is a great childrens cartoon on Nick Jr. My three year old is in love with Dora and her monkey side kick, Boots. This is one cartoon that actually keeps her attention. It is set to get the kids interacting and learning at the same time. …

When I first heard about the TV show nurse Jackie, I did not know what to think about it. It seems like a spin off of to show House, only this one with a female character. At first I didn’t want to watch it because it seemed a bit …

NBC’s new television series, Grimm, gives a modern twist to classic fairy tales. The show is a sort of hybrid of the CW’s Supernatural and any cop drama you’ve ever watched. Although the budget seems to be relatively low for special effects, the original concept and good acting makes …

While relaxing tonight and waiting for another show to come on, I was flipping through the ‘on demand’ options and came across The Closer with Kyra Sedgwick. I’ve heard about this show and was moderately intrigued by the concept, but I’ve never actually watched an episode. I …

This episode starts off where Avalon left off. Daniel and Vala follow the Ori prior to Selestis and the City of the Gods. When Daniel questions the Prior he merely says, “In due time. All in good time.” As they enter a room in the …

This is one of my most memorable episodes of the popular 1990s American television series “The X-Files”. It was memorable to me because of the plot of that particular episode whereas I had always wondered if people who were struck by lightning and survived ever became electrically charged even …

This is a fairly disturbing episode and one that tends to stick with me. Every time I see it, it sticks in my head for at least a day or two. It makes you think about people, and the lengths they go to just to continue making a few …

From October 1958, Highway Patrol: Family Affair was the third outing of this fourth and final year of this police drama. The plot is family oriented, but not in a good way per se. This half hour program surrounds a wife who plots her husband’s escape from …

Amongst small-screen Televisions, the 23-inch Vizio VM230XVT Razor is really a standout because of its good display quality and astonishing features. This Television uses a good edge-lit brought backlight for display quality that’s not within the same category as big-screen powerhouses, however that’s really, very great for a TV …

The point of South Park is to put ignorant children into adult situations, knowing they would have no idea what was going on. While it has strayed from this ideal a quite a bit, it is nice to see an episode that involves many of the major characters at …

So, after watching Shatner’s Raw Nerve for the first time when Leonard Nimoy was on, I kept the show on for another airing, this time with guest Jon Voight. There’s no question Voight is a good actor, but what is at issue is how good of a father …

I’ve always had a love for Fairy tales and Disney movies and so I was intrigued when a family member introduced “Once Upon a Time” to me. I didn’t have a lot of hope for it though since it looked a little low budget and I didn’t see how …

Episode 3 of the first season of Stargate was an episode called “Emancipation”. Now, a lot of folks don’t like this one, but I adore it. There are just some awesome moments in it that can’t be ignored.
The highlight and must-see moment of this story is early …

Episode Three of Dexter was really fun, just like the previous two. The show is so well written that I don’t think there is ever going to be a bad review of an episode. This episode for a little different, since we got to see a bit more of …

The Ray Bradbury Theater: Sun and Shadow from October 1992 was a show that I had some problems with, not in terms of the production but in the main character and what his supposedly heroic deeds were. Heroic may not be the right word. Perhaps it’s more …

I can’t believe how much cinemax has changed. I used to have it and I glad I don’t pay for it anymore. I had it free over the weekend and I don’t see why anybody would pay for this channel anymore, especially not a high price for it. I …

Rod Serling introduced this episode of Night Gallery by saying that he was considered to be the Howard Cosell of the crypt. That was an odd start, but it makes sense, in an odd way. Then we get to the evening’s entertainment, a half hour vehicle written …

Dexter is one of my most favorite series of all time. I have been watching Dexter since it all started and have been quite fascinated with the storylines and the suspense. Dexter is on its 6th season now, and what I like about it is that it only has …

The September 28th edition of Mad Hungry with Lucinda Scala Quinn dealt with breakfast foods for dinner. Now that’s my style. I love breakfast foods, but I do not eat breakfast. I can’t explain it, but if I do, I tend to get sick. My …

Seriously now, is Meatloaf in every show I watch now or what? First he was on House, then he was on Monk and now he was a guest investigator on Ghost Hunters in their episode “A Bat out of Hell.”
In all fairness, he was quite entertaining to watch (though …

This two parter introduced us to many new characters at SG1 while losing Richard Dean Anderson as General O’Neill. Even though he made a cameo during these episodes, it was not the same as having him around full time.
Viewers got to meet Lt. Colonel Cameron Mitchell played by …

The Virginian: The Masquerade, a sixth season episode, was one I found to be quite delightful. It was pretty lighthearted versus the serious tone of so many of these 90 minute episodes, and it featured David Hartman, who I often enjoy in his portrayals.
Hartman guest stars as well …

Alyson Michalka stars as Marti Perkins in Hellcats: The Prisoner’s Song. This hour was full of drama and excitement, especially when Marti votes against her teammate and roommate, Savannah, when Savannah ends up in a face off with Alice over the video presentation style. Marti also has …

From season 5, That Girl: A Limited Engagement just may be the most dramatic show from the entire five years. It’s also quite probably the best episode from the entire run as well. While there are laughs, the show isn’t full of them. They’re there as …

Sadly, Alias Smith and Jones: The Man Who Murdered Himself is another show were Hannibal Heyes goes one way and Kid Curry another. It’s all to earn some money, but aside from the opening and the ending, the two partners are on separate track in this first season …

In the far distant future of the year of 2015, the angel’s have returned. Welcome to Neon Genesis Evangelion episode 1 “Angel Attack”, an historic animation that has an story that is unrivaled by any other animation that has come out since then. The setting of this episode is …

Someone finally fit the bill that the producers of The Andy Griffith Show were looking for. I think Aneta Corsaut was super as Helen Crump, Opie’s teacher, but I’m really not sure why she was better than Joanna Moore. Whatever the reason, we meet Miss Crump for …

Somebody’s stealing Larry’s newspapers—¦and a neighbourhood get together for Cedar provides the ideal opportunity to nail the culprit.
Meanwhile, a registered sex offender has moved into the neighbourhood and despite some initial apprehension, Larry is soon charmed and endeared toward the man and Cheryl is outraged to discover Larry …

As we flee from the threat of our identities of being revealed, we must question the nature of this fear in the first place. Does it exist to torment us, or is it an foolish illusion wrought by man’s own hands? These questions may not have an answer at …

Columbo: Make Me a Perfect Murder is a memorable outing for the famous detective mainly because of the superb cold and calculating performance of Trish Van Devere. She’s actually the traditional lady scorned, both personally and professionally, and she is out to get her revenge.
Van Devere portrays Kay …

CHiPs: Repo Man features Mills Watson as the repo man. In other words, he’s in the repossession business. Unfortunately, he doesn’t have a lot of tact and he does a lot of underhanded things to get the job done. Quite honestly, I’ve never enjoyed Watson as …

To be honest, I never watched “The King of Queens” before they started showing syndicated episodes of it in the afternoons on one of local television stations. Since that time, however, my day is not complete unless I see this show. Everybody in the cast is talented …

iZombie is a crime drama TV series with elements of horror, comedy, action and a seriously wacky plot. Just like The Walking Dead, it is loosely based on a comic book series but is nowhere near as serious or at all dystopian. It comes from the creator of Veronica Mars …

Ralph Nader was all over television back in his heyday, promoting consumer awareness and advocacy. It makes him a decent selection as the honoree as the Man of the Week on The Dean Martin Comedy Hour because he’s easy to make fun of and with.
Unfortunately, I really didn’t …

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? 10th Anniversary Special - Night Eleven was perhaps my favorite night of the eleven night special run of the iconic show. There are a few reasons why I consider this to be one of the anniversary’s best shows. First of all, I would …

Recently, I acquired Wagon Train - The Color Season DVD set. This set contains every color episode of Wagon Train, which was essentially the 1963-64 TV series. All shows were ninety minutes long. This was the year that Robert Fuller joined the cast after a four-year …

The Secret Life of… is a show that comes on the Food Network on Monday nights at 10 pm/9 central. I love this show! What it is is the host, Jim, picks a topic and then we get to learn all about it! We learn about it’s history, how …

In this episode Rose and the Doctor are not travelling in the future as we are used to see them travel but they go in the past. Rose’s dad died when she was still a baby and her mother kept telling her how great guy he was and how …

I�m not a huge fan of Family Guy. The jokes in it can be funny but they are a bit too crude for my taste. However, when the 100th episode was on the other day, I did decide to give it a chance. And, again, I was disappointed.
The idea …

This excellent long running tv show Stargate Sg1 picks up in it’s series premire where the movie, Stargate staring Kurt Russel and James Spader, leaves off. Daniel Jackson returns to Stargate Command nicked named The SGC with news  of an impending attack by the Goa’uld on Abydos, the planet …

Emerald Point N.A.S. is an ensemble series and there are some pieces of that ensemble that I like better than others. Glenn Matthews is a wimp of a character, and I’m so sick of him; in fact, I wish he wasn’t part of that ensemble. As portrayed …

Bones is a crime drama that stars former Angel star David Boreanaz as Seely Booth, a FBI agent who enlists the help of socially awkward anthropologist Temperance Brennan. It is based on the life and books of Kathy Reichs.
The series is your typical boy/girl partnership trope, but it …

My daughters have been watching Spongebob Squarepants all day today (yes,I know I really should be making them do something more constructive) and, as a result of that, I’m seeing episodes of the show I haven’t seen in a while. One of the episodes is actually one of my …

This second episode of Fame has always been one I’ve enjoyed watching, primarily because of the last scene. From 1982, Fame: Passing Grade has the teacher and the pupil both vying for the same part in a Broadway show. Of course, it’s against the rules for a …

I wasn’t sure what to expect from tonight’s Monk episode “Mr. Monk on Wheels.” After all, getting a detective with all sorts of emotional problems shot while on a case has a lot of ways the episode could go and not all of them are good ones.
However, tonight’s episode …

Time between dog and wolf; an action romance drama aired in July of last year from MBC, is one of the best suspense series I loved watched. I followed this series from the time it was shown, because I like Lee Jun Ki. In fact, that was the main …
