Dr Phil
Dr. Phil is a really cool show. I really enjoy watching this show everyday. I think this show teaches people who to be better people and solve their problems. I think Dr. Phil is a pretty smart man. He has also gained a lot of fame after being in the …
The World’s Tallest Children
This program came on TLC and I was so amazed by the families and the children that I saw. They were absolutely huge. Not just tall people, but actually really large. There was this one girl from Thailand who was to travel to England to find …
Banana Split sitcom
What separates Banana Split from other sitcoms in the Philippines is the number of girls (and how fresh they are) in the casting. Actually, Banana Split boasts of an all-girls cast which would keep your eyes glued to the television.
Girls seem to be a staple in every sitcom. …
House: Teamwork
Well, once again, the show House seems to be changing the cast again. At least they managed to bring back Thirteen and, since there really wasn’t any point in her, got rid of Cameron (though I have a feeling we’ll see her again).
This wasn’t a bad episode either. You …
Fireball XL5: The Granatoid Tanks
In Fireball XL5: The Granatoid Tanks, the Granatoids are looking for a home. They are a very destructive race, and it’s up to XL5 to save the day, once they realize there’s danger out there.
What is special about this episode is that we’re celebrating Venus’ birthday, so we …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Family
Willow’s girlfriend Tara has been around for some time now but has always been a bit vague in terms of her past. That’s why I actually liked the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode Family.
We learn a bit more about Tara’s family, a group of witches who seem to treat women …
The Prisoner: Checkmate
The Prisoner: Checkmate actually starts out with a very intriguing human name of chess where residents of The Village, including Number Six (Patrick McGoohan) are the chess pieces. When one of the rooks moves on his own and proclaims, “Check”, he is removed and taken to the hospital …
Project Runway: The Hi’s and Low’s of Fashion
I haven’t really been watching this season of Project Runway; mostly because the last season just ended. But, I did watch last night’s challenge; the Hi’s and Lows of Fashion.
This challenge was actually somewhat interesting. Once again, the show decides to create tension by having the designers pair up …
The Best of the Danny Kaye Show DVD
The Best of the Danny Kaye Show DVD is a really great opportunity to see just a hint of how wonderful Danny Kaye was as a performer. Kaye had a series that lasted for a few seasons in the mid 1960’s. I remember reading some years ago …
Scooby Doo Where Are You TV Episode: Bedlam in the Big Top
My oldest daughter has started watching Scooby Doo cartoons on a regular basis; both the newer shows and some of the first episodes from Scooby Doo Where Are You.
The other day, we sat down to watch the episode Bedlam in the Big Top. In this episode, Scooby and the …
Project Runway: Rumble on the Runway
Look, I’ve mentioned before the show Project Runway has slowly grown on me over the years and, for the most part, I’m becoming a fan. But, I never understood the team competitions. This is supposed to be the best designer beating out all others. The only reason to pair …

That Girl: Kiss That Girl Goodbye from the fourth season of this ABC comedy has Don Hollinger (Ted Bessell) being offered a new position at a larger company, run by Robert Harrison (Mark Miller). The catch is that he’d have to move to Paris, France for 18 months.
What …
Venture Bros: Return to Malice
This episode was…interesting. 21, grief stricken over the death of his buddy, decides to get revenge on those he believes are responsible, namely, Hank and Dean.
It seems 21 has been pushing himself to new limits as he’s the most feared of the henchmen. …

Fantasia For Real
I liked Fantasia when she was on American Idol. I was really rooting for her and hoped that she would make it really far. When she won, I thought that things would look up for her. And I was right. But then I realized …
House of Payne show
I have watched this show called house of Payne quite a few times. In general I really like it. It’s funny and entertaining. I watch it quite a bit now. Some episodes aren’t as good as others but that is true with any show. I like this show because …
Lipstick Jungle - Wendy’s Thanksgiving Dinner
NBC’s Lipstick Jungle has had a rough ride. First the show was aired on Wednesdays, and then Law and Order came back so it was pushed to Fridays…Anyways, where ever Lipstick Jungle goes, I shall follow. And with Thanksgiving here, it was fit for them to air the …
Due South: The Blue Line
Hockey is the center theme in Due South: The Blue Line. I’m not a hockey fan, but people in cold, icy climates like Chicago and Canada love it, so here we are. The setup for the show is a bit different, though, and I like that. …
Stargate SG-1: Children of the Gods - final cut
In 2009, Brad Wright decided that the original movie pilot for Stargate SG-1, called Children of the Gods, wasn’t good enough. There were a lot of things he didn’t like about it, so MGM gave him the green light to re-edit the film, giving us this final cut …
Friends - The one with the birthing video
To prepare for the birth of her baby, Rachel decides to borrow a video from Phoebe of a mother giving birth so that she knows what she can expect while she is in labor. Although she is not excited to see the show, she decides that it would be …
The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: A.K.A. Kansas
There was one thing I really loved and one thing I really hated about The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: A.K.A. Kansas. Overall, the negative rules and that means this is a show I could really live without.
Kelly Rutherford reprises her role as Dixie Cousins. This time, …
TV Show: The Newlywed Game
Synopsis: Modernized version of this couple’s show airing on Game Show Network. This show pits three newly married couples against each other in a game where they have to guess the correct answer their spouse would give to specific questions.
What I like about this show: One of the interesting …
To Boldly Go … Season Two featurette
To Boldly Go … Season Two featurette includes some great comments about some of the classic episodes which aired during the second season of Star Trek. This includes the wonderful and most popular episode, The Trouble with Tribbles, which just about everyone calls the one and only comedy …
Smallville: Iris TV Show
I really haven’t watched much of Smallville over the years. I saw a few shows in its premier season, back when Tom Welling looked more like a teenager than a grown man and when John Schneider was playing his father. I liked it, but it never hooked …
True Blood Episode 1: Strange Love
The first scene of the episode was great as far as letting the watcher know what the premise of the story is and gives a great pipe in for the turning plot. Two curious kids, a gas station, and monsters are a great way to start a scary …
The show - 24 -
I wanted to give a review on my favorite thing on TV that begins its season in January every year… and that is 24, with Kiefer Sutherland. This show revolves around a ficticious unit of the US Gov’t and its National Security called CTU (Counter Terrorism Unit). …
Masterchef: Episode 3 TV Show
This review focuses on the third episode to air of Masterchef, the newest cooking show to air on the Fox Network. All of the contestants who were given aprons in the first two hours of televised auditions, now have to be meted down to a workable group. …
House: Sports Medicine
On the surface, the House episode “Sports Medicine” really isn’t anything different than any other House episode I’ve seen. He is called in to find the cause of some bizarre condition; this time it’s unexplained bone loss in a major league pitcher and has to go through a bunch …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Emissary TV Show
From February 1988, The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Emissary is a show about a boy and his faithful dog. As a dog lover, I only want to ensure that nothing bad happens to the dog. The boy is named Martin and is played by Keram Malick-Sanchez. …
The Virginian: The Showdown TV Show
From April 1965, The Virginian: The Showdown was an intriguing episode that had good drama and some equally good acting. I’m usually not much of a fan of the shows that feature one member of the Shiloh ranch away from Wyoming, especially when its The Virginian himself, but …
Mod Squad: The Teeth of the Barracuda TV Show
Mod Squad: The Teeth of the Barracuda is the pilot to this classic police drama about three young undercover cops. The idea is that being young and hip, no one would think they were cops. All had been in trouble when asked to join the police force …
Street Hawk: Female of the Species
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. …
Chief Engineer’s Log featurette
One of the DVD extras for the Star Trek series is the Chief Engineer’s Log. It’s actually a little hard to watch for me. James Doohan was such a force. He died in July 2005, and this was an interview taped a year and a half …
Ghost Hunters Halloween Live TV Show
For Halloween 2010, the SyFy Network aired a six hour live broadcast (well, if you were on the east coast anyway) called Ghost Hunters Halloween Live. I tuned in for the entire marathon broadcast and below are a few of my reactions.
–The overall was too much of a …
Stargate: Infinity: Big Mistake TV Show
The drama of this thirty minute animated show, Stargate: Infinity: Big Mistake, revolves around a desert world where it rarely rains. Seattle leads Major Gus Bonner’s team in trying to help the people by finding water underground. Then they discover there is also a power source somewhere …
As the World Turns TV Show
As the World Turns is one of my favorite television programs. It is a soap opera that comes on at 2pm on CBS. I started watching this show when I was in middle school, and still watch it now long after college.
It has several great story lines that always …
Emerald Point N.A.S.: Episode 22 - The Wedding
The show is over. Emerald Point N.A.S.: Episode 22 — The Wedding is the final episode of this navy drama. The sad part is that no one knew that at the time of the taping. Therefore, it has that typical cliffhanger ending that would never be …
Dawson’s Creeek Season 6 Episode 601 The Kids Are Alright
The Kids Are Alright, episode 601, opens in almost a way you’d expect this to the be last season because there is a montage at the beginning of the episode of all the characters. I love this show, but there are still parts of it that annoy me. …
“Extreme Makeover : Home Edition” (Tv show)
I absolutely love “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition”! This show really spotlights people in need and that there are people out there that want to help them. Everytime I watch this TV program, I cry. Not so much that Im sad, but for the fact that I am so happy …
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 …
For Warrick Episode
I finished watching the latest season of CSI: Las Vegas season 9, first episode entitled,
“For Warrick”. I could not believe it myself that they have actually killed Warrick’s character in this series. I have like seen him in all of the episodes of the CSI Las Vegas. He was …
A Miser’s Brothers’ Christmas
A Miser’s Brothers’ Christmas is a 2008 sequel to 1974’s awesome, “The Year Without a Santa Claus”. Unfortunately, I’m nowhere near as taken with it as I was with the 1974 entry.
While Mickey Rooney returns as the voice of Santa and pulls it off beautifully, I found most …
The Virginian: Dead-Eye Dick TV Show
Dead-Eye Dick was a fairly entertaining fifth season episode of The Virginan, and I honestly believe that one of the reasons I liked it as much as I did was that it didn’t really involve any of the new owners, the Graingers. Charles Bickford had just one scene, …
Forever TV Show Episode Two: Look Before You Leap
Forever is a new TV show that is featured on the ABC network. Given that I enjoyed the very first episode, I made sure I geared up and watched the second. Now, given that I pretty much had an idea on what the show will generally will be about, …
The Real Ghostbusters episode 23: The Old College Spirit
This is another episode where I could see what the writers were going for, but the execution was lacking. It opens with a fraternity being framed by ghosts for various pranks. They decide to hire the Ghostbusters to take care of it. Venkman’s against it initially, …
Criminal Minds —“ Season One —“ Episode Six —“ L.D.S.K
Oh wow, this was an amazing episode! L.D.S.K. stands for Long Distance Serial Killers. The scary thing is they said they never catch these guys, because they don’t have contact with their victims! It turns out that the unsub was an Emergency Room doctor, he injured the people so …
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 …
The Dean Martin Comedy Hour: Don Rickles TV Show
Don’t be confused by the title of The Dean Martin Comedy Hour. Dean Martin began doing roasts on his TV show and they went over so well that they became their own unofficial series of sort — The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast. Those participants were usually labeled …
