The television series Sex and The City is a half hour comedy that once aired on HBO.
Firstly the series no longer screens so if you want to check it out you will have to either wait for reruns on television or check out the DVD.
I like Sex and the …

Dollhouse is a television show that aired on Fox. At first I wasn’t too interested in the show, it seemed too scientific and filled with jargon. The basic premise being people sign their lives over to a corporation for five years and in that five years their …

90210 is a television remake of the original series Beverly Hills 90210. When I heard a remake was being made I was excited to see my favourite characters back on screen in their previously much loved roles. Sadly the worst thing about 90210 was the previous characters. …

Well, that was a cute episode of the show Hogan’s Heroes at lunch today; the Big Record; though it was somewhat predictable.
Basically, they are kicked out of the recreation hall so the Gestapo can have an important top secret meeting there. Hogan and his crew want to find out …

Well, last night’s episode of House was somewhat interesting.
First, you had a football player on the verge of being drafted by the NFL suffering some sort of ailment that causes his skin to turn white (he’s black) and have a breakdown on the field that causes him to beat …

This was one of the first episodes I really liked of this show. It was about the year 200,000 and the way the news were transmitted. They are all on a satellite and they receive news trough some kind a machine, they have some kind a chip installed …

I just adore Judge Judy. She is a real Judge called Judith Sheindlin who, in this show, presides over real cases from the small claims court. The show has been running from 1996 and is still being made and in every episode we see two or three …

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 …

The television show Bones has a new take on crime drama.
At first I wasn’t too interested in the show. I had thought there were already many crime drama series around and Bones was just another one. Also the premise of discovering who committed a crime by examining …

The television show Greek airs on ABC family. I am a big fan of this television series as I feel it brings something different to the table - something most dramas geared towards young people don’t usually provide.
It’s the fact that the show is not in your face, …

The Bachelor is a reality TV Show with many seasons that have been aired.
I have a love hate relationship with the show.
On the love side, I love to see twenty five women get down and dirty fighting for the love of a man. They cut each other down, …

I turned on the television and was lucky enough to catch an episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
Initially I had thought it would be a terrible show and had never bothered watching it, that night however there was nothing on TV and so I watched.
Surprisingly it was really …

What not to wear, after 250 episodes, somehow manages to still be one of my favorite things to watch on television. In each episode, one fashion challenged person is nominated by his or her friends for a trip to New York, a fashion consultation with Stacy London and …

Well, that was kind of a funny episode of Hogan’s Heroes at lunch today; Kommandant Schultz.
The major mission they had (smuggling some sort of building material to England) really took second to the other storyline in this episode; Schultz being named commander of the POW camp as part of …

Well, when the new episode of Psych came out and I heard it starred pro wrestler John Cena, I was definitely intrigued. I didn’t expect it to be a pretty decent episode.
This one is a bit sad to be honest, not only is Shawn’s girlfriend (who I just realized …

It took me a while to realise how funny Catherine Tate is and how good her sketch show is. I only started watching it when the UK nation was already quoting her ‘Lauren’ character and saying “I ain’t bovvered” at every opportunity. I have grown to really …

I got into financial difficulties many years when I was a mature student with a mortgage to cope with as well. I am still suffering the repercussions now and it is true what they say, that debt can become a vicious cycle. Therefore, I really enjoy programmes …

According to Wikipedia, ‘Bridezilla’ “is a generic term used to describe a difficult, unpleasant perfectionist bride who leaves aggravated family, friends and bridal vendors in her wake”, so we can expect a reality show called ‘Bridezillas’ to pick some pretty extreme personalities in order to make a good show, …

I enjoy ‘How Clean is your House?’ mainly because I find it very motivating when it comes to cleaning my own house. In each episodes, the team visits what the voice-over man calls a ‘filth offender’, someone living in a revoltingly dirty house. Although you or I …

‘The Wright Show’ is a live show every week day morning on Channel 5 and presented by ex-tabloid journalist, Matthew Wright. Every day there are different celebrities on the ‘panel’ and basically they discuss different hot topics of debate, from the frivolous to the serious, and make comments …

When I first heard about the television show Big Love I expected something sexier, something funny, witty and basically something completely different to what the show is.
Why? Because it’s a show about polygamy and having three wives can only mean one thing . . . drama.
So there isn’t …

Desperate housewives is a show created by Marc Cherry. He was inspired by the women in his life.
As I viewer I find Desperate Housewives funny, endearing and engaging.

‘Would I Lie to You?’ is a funny game show on BBC1, with television personalities, but mainly comedians, as contestants. This show has been around since 2007 but I only discovered it recently, since the the role of the host was taken over by one of my favourite …

The series Fireball XL5 is just awesome. What is odd about my affection for this puppet series is that I’m not really into puppeteering at all, neither did I watch this series when it was first on back in 1962-1963. At least, I don’t recall watching it, …

Fireball XL5: Space Magnet is a favorite because we get to see Zoonie, and anytime we see Zoonie, I’m happy. Zoonie is an alien pet, I guess you could say. The future’s version of a dog in a sense. He lives with Doctor Venus, and he’s …

Fireball XL5: Hypnotic Sphere is one of 39 episodes of this supermarionation puppet series from Gerry Anderson. What I enjoy is that the puppets really do have some great personalities. They’re pretty well rounded, all things considered.
In this show, there’s a neat scene where Professor Matt Matic …

On the DVD set, Fireball XL5: Planet of Platonia is actually the third episode, so I don’t know if maybe it was produced early and saved for a later airing or what. It aired as episode 13 in early 1963. It’s possible the DVD order is just out …

Fireball XL5: The Sun Temple aired in December 1962 for the first time, bringing us another adventure for Colonel Steve Zodiac and his XL5 crew.
One of the fun things about this episode is that Zoonie gets to go on XL5 and Venus tries to teach him more words. …

From November 18, 1962, Fireball XL5: Plant Man from Space gives us a story we’ve seen many times since this episode. In various incarnations, it’s the story of a small seed leading to a plant that looks wonderful, but then proves to be over powering in one way …

From 1962, Gerry Anderson’s Fireball XL5: Space Immigrants is a mixture of ‘rah, women’s lib’ and ‘oops, she can’t do it without her man’. Okay, that’s not the plot, but it’s how the plot made me feel. The adorable, sexy space doctor of medicine, Doctor Venus, is …

Fireball XL5: The Doomed Planet is the second episode of this puppet, or rather supermarionation series from Gerry Anderson, and I love it for a few reasons.
First, we see how Colonel Steve Zodiac and Doctor Venus are at home when they are off duty. They drive from the …

Fireball XL5: Planet 46 premiered on October 28,1962 and introduced the United States audience to this British import from the mind of Gerry Anderson. It’s a science fiction series done not with actors, but with supermarionation. In other words, these are advanced puppets, and who knew they’d …

The Burn Notice Season 2 DVD set is a four disk set containing all the episodes from the second season. Each disk has a nice color photo of one of the show’s four stars — Jeffrey Donovan, Gabrielle Anwar, Bruce Campbel, and Sharon Gless. This makes them …

I tuned into Burn Notice: Truth and Reconciliation originally because it included Michael Shanks as a guest star. He was reoccurring in the role of Victor, a very colorful operative of questionable nature. The bad news was that as it turned out, Victor only showed up for one …

I wish I liked Burn Notice more as a series. It has a lot to offer, but most of the time, it fails to keep me hooked. I begin multi-tasking, even when I don’t mean to. While there have been a few I really like, most of …

Burn Notice: Hot Spot from season two isn’t really a big hit for me. The basic concept is that Fiona continues to help Michael try to find out who is trying to kill him, while Michael’s ‘job’ for the show is helping a football player who is in …

Burn Notice: Do No Harm continues the story from the previous episode, Good Soldier. At the end of that show, Michael had fallen from the ledge of his door after a big blast. Now it’s just crazy that Michael takes such a fall and can just get …

Burn Notice: Good Soldier is an episode from season two of this spy series that I think is a little on the ridiculous side of things. Most of the time, the regulars — Michael Weston (Jeffrey Donovan), Fiona (Gabrielle Anwar), and Sam (Bruce Campbell — are covertly watching …

Fullmetal Alchemist Episode 8 begins with Ed distraught over the death of Nina Tucker after he finds the remains of her Chimera form blown up from the inside. Assigned to look over Shou Tucker’s research he refuses and hands over his State Alchemist watch. He decides to …
