Star Trek: The Next Generation - All Good Things… Part Two
Star Trek: The Next Generation - “All Good Things…” Part Two is the last episode of the series, and really, I think it could have been better. There is a lot about this episode that just does not make very much sense. For example, the explanation for where the …
Gundam 00 Episode 1 (Anime)
Mobile Suit Gundam 00 episode 1 begins with a young boy named Setsuna fighting in a war as a child. He is rescued by someone in a mysterious suit called a Gundam. He joins the organization called Celestial Being which seeks to eliminate war.
This episode is pretty …
America’s Next Top Model cycle 14, courtesy of Tyra Banks
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 …
Family Guy, The Series
The Family Guy series is so far the best animated cartoon ever! This is just non-stop laughter. Even some of the quotes are almost impossible to stop laughing at. The flashbacks are super humorous also. I think those are the two factors Family Guy grasped completely; pauses and flashbacks. …
Sea Hunt: Hot Cargo TV Show
From January 1960, Sea Hunt: Hot Cargo deals with Mike Nelson leading the first underwater flotilla command for the Coast Guard, which is a bit of a twist. We’ve seen Nelson on reserve duty for the Navy, which is logical since he’s an ex-Navy frogman, but what we …
Voyagers!: Created Equal

Deadly Women (tv show)
Sometimes on a Friday night when I come home from work I realize that there is not much on television to watch. However, recently I discovered a series that usually airs on the cable television channel Discovery, and I’ve begun to look forward to seeing it. This series is …
M*A*S*H: White Gold
The problem with M*A*S*H: White Gold is that it’s too much of a vehicle for guest star Edward Winter who returns as Colonel Flagg, the rather odd CIA agent who often ends up at the 4077th unit. I was really surprised by how much time Winter got, even …
Car 54 Where Are You TV Episode: Get Well Officer Schnauser
Synopsis: While collecting money from the police department’s get well fund (for an injured officer Schnauser) Muldoon is mistaken for a famous bank robber and winds up with $37,000.
What I liked about this episode: I honestly never watched this show until this past weekend, when my wife and I …
It’s Always Sunny in Philidelphia: Seasons 1-6
If I had a top ten list of my favorite shows, It’s always Sunny in Philadelphia would be number one on my list. It is laugh out loud funny from beginning to end and the cast is Phenomenal. The series focuses on the lives of 3 friends Dennis (Glenn …
Simpsons TV Episode: Skinner’s Sense of Snow
I had the Simpsons on yesterday afternoon and, for a change, the channel wasn’t showing a repeat that I had seen several dozen times before. Instead, they had a newer episode (at least for me) called Skinner’s Sense of Snow.
This episode was a bit bizarre at times and I …
Tenspeed and Brown Shoe DVD set
I can’t describe how disappointing it was to receive this Tenspeed and Brown Shoe DVD set. The show itself is a good one. While the series consisted of a TV movie pilot and just twelve episodes, it was a terrific blend of comedy and drama and had …
Stargate SG-1: Orpheus
The next episode of Stargate SG-1 in season seven is Orpheus. Now, I have an issue with the final scene, and that issue keeps me from watching this episode as often as I would otherwise. The other thing is that this show refers to Daniel’s ascension, and …
Cowboy Bebop Episode 19 (Anime)
Cowboy Bebop Episode 19 has Spike getting his fighter repaired on Earth while Faye and Jet take on space pirates.
This episode was pretty interesting and fun, the situation was interesting because this is the first time Faye and Jet and even Edward were useless in a fight while bounty …
Star in the Night
Star in the Night from way back in 1945 is a really simple, modern day simile of the Nativity. It’s set out in the middle of a little town and opens with three cowboys on horseback, riding along with Christmas presents. They see a bright star shining …
The TV show Lost
The TV show lost was a great show when it first came up and than somewhere down the line the producers made the show just go all stupid. Seriously, the show was addictive when the first few seasons came out and was so on the edge of your seat …
The Office: The Surplus
“The Surprus” is an episode of The Office originally airing on NBC on December 4, 2008. This was a rather bland episode but it did have some subtle funny moments sprinkled throughout from a variety of characters.
Oscar was very funny in the opening explaining to Michael, “like he …
The Trailer Park Boys Christmas Special
Christmas is coming up soon, and its time once again for Christmas specials. I noticed that this year the Trailer Park Boys is going to be releasing their Christmas Special on DVD.
I watched this last year with great anticipation. As any of you Trailer Park Boys fans …
Seven days Season 2 Episode 9
There’s really nothing more annoying than when in a show they invent a country in Europe and of course that country has a princess who is in distress and the show protagonist saves the day and the princess, of course, saving that way the whole country, which never existed …
Gilligan’s Island - Meet the Meteor TV Show
What a change, the actors actually face a survival situation not from man but from space, something that we face everyday. And in m opinion the producer did an excellent job making this episode well thought out. There is one scene that is completely unrealistic, again the Professor uses …
The Mighty Boosh: Series One, Episode One - Killeroo
The first TV episode of the cult, surreal comedy The Mighty Boosh, Killeroo, is the perfect opening to the first series. It sets about immediately establishing the signature banter between the writers and performers Noel Fielding and Julian Barrett. This double act is one of the main …
Sea Hunt: Alligator Story TV Show
Sea Hunt: Alligator Story is a tale that just the name would keep me from watching if I weren’t reviewing this episode. Gator stories are not my cup of tea, as they say. The story opens with a really nice camera shot of Nelson looking up through …
The Dean Martin Comedy Hour: Carroll O’Connor TV Show
The Dean Martin Comedy Hour: Carroll O’Connor honored the All in the Family star as Man of the Week for a merry bit of entertainment with a number of decent humor routines and unusual dais members. It wasn’t often in those days that you’d find the head of …
Whatever You Like (song by rapper T.I.)
When I first heard this song, I thought it was quite ignorant. And then the beat and the hook caught me. It wasn’t until I’d heard it about three or four times that I started to like the song. And then after that, I realized …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Lost Bomb TV Show
From December 1966 comes this 13th episode of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea’s third season on TV. The outing is entitled The Lost Bomb. Earlier in the season, shows had extra focus on two of the more visible crewman, Kowalski (Del Monroe) and Patterson (Paul …
Brad Paisley Underwater tv special
I recently saw this cool special on Brad Paisley called Underwater. It wsn’t a concert or anything, but it was more of a behind the scenes run down of how his concerts are set up. Im not a big fan of country, but I think some of brad’s …
Star Trek: Voyager - Fury
Star Trek: Voyager - “Fury” is an episode that excels in special effects, but not so much in story. In this episode, Kes returns, after being gone for over three years. She returns and attacks Voyager in what plays out in as some of Star Trek’s best special effects. …
The Twilight Zone: The Four of Us Are Dying TV Show
Quite honestly, The Twilight Zone: The Four of Us Are Dying isn’t one of the shows that I really want to watch. It’s packed with talent, but the plot just doesn’t go over with me. It’s about a man with the ability to change his appearance on …
Project Runway reality show
The best reality television show is hosted by a super model. No,not Tyra Banks, although, America’s Next Top Model is right up there with the best. I am talking about Heid Klum. She hosts “Project Runway.”
It is a show about clothing designers that is broadcasted on the …
Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmem
“Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmem” is a Travel Channel show I started watching close to a year ago. To be honest, there are times when I can barely stand to look at it, but, at the same time, it is just fascinating to me that this man will …

Having nightmares he doesn’t want to admit to or think about, Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda) begins to sleepwalk, doing things to confuse the personnel like playing basketball, shooting invisible marbles, and talking about old school friends and …
Keeping Up With the Kardashians (E! reality show)
Again the reality show has bitten another family. This show has been on E! for a little while, but I’d just never taken the time to watch. Kim Kardashian is a beautiful woman who doesn’t really get a lot of respect in Hollywood. She’s …
Bring ‘Em Back Alive: Bones of Contention
I really wanted to like Bring ‘Em Back Alive: Bones of Contention. First, it started out by indicating it might be a good show about archaeology and anthropology. This happens when Frank Buck (Bruce Boxleitner) and Ali (Clyde Kusatsu) find an archaeologist’s journal. Frank sends it …
Bewitched The Complete Second Season In Black and White (DVD Season Set)
Bewitched The Complete Second Season In Black and White is a DVD season set that was released by Sony Pictures Home Entertainment.

Caprica (TV)
Recently a new television series named “Caprica” has been advertising to be aired on the cable television channel Syfy. I saw it advertise on several cable television channels before I finally decided to watch it too, since when it was advertising I guess I got the wrong impression, and …
The Simpsons Episode The Good, The Sad and the Drugly
I haven’t watched too many episodes of The Simpsons lately, other than some of the older re-runs that they show at 6 p.m. during the week. But, I did get a chance to watch a newer episode last night (though still in re-run); The Good, The Sad and the …
The Defenders: Nevada vs. Rodgers TV Show
Nevada vs. Rodgers was the latest hour of the new decent drama and disappointing comedy show, The Defenders. The good part for me is that they more or less left the comedy behind this week, and that was delightful. I’ve said from the beginning that this version …
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 …
Friends: The One with the Cop
This is a show that occurs in the fifth season of the popular sitcom, and it is one of my favorities as it has a lot going on throughout the show and it definitely does not leave room for any boring parts.
The show features Joey fantasizng about his friend …
The Carol Burnett Show: Family Show TV Show
This particular tenth season episode of The Carol Burnett Show was called by Burnett “a family show” because there aren’t any guest stars. All of the skits and performances are by the regulars — Harvey Korman, Vicki Lawrence, and Tim Conway.
The monologue is one of the longer ones …
Bill Nye the Science Guy Disney Show
Bill Nye the Science Guy is a wacky and fun show. I have lots of little cousins, and there are a lot of times whereby me and my sister are requested to babysit them, as they have some busy parents.
There was this time I was taking care of …
Thank God You’re Here (tv show)
Thank God You’re Here is a new comedy show that comes on Monday night on channel 10 from eight o’clock till nine o’clock. Thank God You’re Here is hosted by Shane Bourne and the judge is Tom Gleisner. It is a show where they dress up famous people in …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: No Place Like Home
Have we forgotten about Willow lately? It seems that she doesn’t have too much of a role in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episodes lately. She’s there, just not very prominent.
Take the episode No Place Like Home. Buffy is starting to feel like something weird is going on at …
Emergency!: Crash
Emergency!: Crash is the final episode of the series’ first season. It’s notable as well for being the second and last appearance of John Smith as Captain Hammer. Salary demands kept him from continuing in season two, which I thought was a shame because he did a …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Terrible Toys TV Show
From season three, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Terrible Toys was the fifth episode of this series which stars Richard Basehart and David Hedison. One of the guest stars is Francis X. Bushman who plays the mysterious Old Man in the fog. His bit …
Greek: Season 2
I loved season two of the ABC Family television series “Greek” as much as I liked season one. Season two began in on August twenty six of last year 2008 with the episode entitled “Brothers and sisters”. I was looking forward to seeing this episode of Greek as …
