Much like “The Real Ghostbusters”, I’ve had the complete X-Files series on DVD for some time, yet never got around to sitting down and watching them. So, much like with the aforementioned cartoon, I decided to give it a watch through now.
This was a frustrating show …

I can’t believe that for the last few years I have not been watching Big Bang Theory. I heard about it, but the description of the show did not seem appealing to me at all. I sounded like just another one of those “time wasting” sitcoms.
One day, when …

This is just another great episode on season one of Spongebob Squarepants. In this episode, Plankton is trying to be friends with Spongebob just so that he can get the Krabby Patty recipe from him. Spongebob truly thinks that Plankton wants to be friends and Spongbob gets …

Bring ‘Em Back Alive was a story based very loosely on big game hunter, Frank Buck. The goal was not to kill the prey, but to bring ‘em back alive, to zoos and such. The show starred Bruce Boxleitner, Cindy Morgan, Clyde Kusatsu, and Ron Neal.
My impressions …

Once again, I came across another That 70s Show re-run I haven’t seen before, the episode called “The First Time.”
Of course, by the title, you really have no idea what is going on. As it turns out, it’s about Bob and Midge deciding to renew their wedding vows after …

The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast continued with a tribute to, of all people, and I can’t even fathom why, Evel Knievel. Taped in Las Vegas, as always, the roasters included Ernest Borgnine, Gabe Kaplan, and a slew of other folks who have basically nothing to do with Knievel, …

Paladin has another romantic evening interrupted by Hey Boy delivering a message in Have Gun - Will Travel: The Race. The message is a request for him to participate in a horse race. A kiss later, the girl is gone and Paladin prepares to leave. What …

I was watching some MASH re-runs and came across one of my least favorite episodes “The Joker is Wild,” just because it was kind of pointless and one of the most un-funny episodes of the show I have ever seen. And, I’ve seen almost every single episode of it …

I could tell by the way the first episode began that Lost was going to be a great hit for the producers at ABC.
The story begins as a plane crashes into a lost island, several hours off the original course, making it difficult to envision a rescue. We are …

From a Jack Dalton episode to another Penny Parker episode. I miss the days when MacGyver was doing exotic assignments overseas. In this fourth season episode, Cleo Rocks, MacGyver has been invited to the premier of Penny’s new play. It’s her first real job as an …

When I first watched Supernatural two years ago I was intrigued by the funny-creepy topic of the episodes.
I am a fan of supernatural in general and the story of this show was exactly my kind of entertainment.
The story is centered on the adventures of two brothers Sam and Dean …

Enter the stage another grumpy middle-aged businessman: George Jefferson. Sherman Hemsley perfected the role that made him famous. His business tycoon mentality and “buck the system” attitude made him a success. This success is described in the song accompanying the opening credits. …

Have Gun - Will Travel: Sons of Aaron Murdock is one of those stories where a family is torn apart and Paladin ends up in the middle, trying to at least save one son from being corrupted by the other. It’s the father who has hired Paladin. …

Starz is one of the premium movies that you can get. I used to have all of the movie channels and then I did away with them. When I used to have them all of them were really good. Now none of them are as good as they used …

The Twilight Zone: What’s in the Box is a crazy thirty minutes focused on the evils of television, or maybe it’s just focused on an evil television. Sterling Holloway, whose unique voice makes him a unique performer, guest stars as a TV repairman who performs some special alterations …

Seinfeld was always one of my favorite TV shows growing up. Even to this day I can watch this show over and over and never get bored of it. I think Seinfeld is a true comedy classic. Seinfeld has classic characters that we will remember forever like Kramer. And this …

Season 2 opens with a megabang and doesn’t let up until the final closing minutes. Picking up right after “What He Beheld”, the Season 1 finale, “Samson and Delilah” takes a page from “Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines” with the good robot unintentionally gone bad. Sarkissian’s men attack …

Metalocalypse is a new 15-minute cartoon on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim lineup, and I just finished watching the premiere episode of this show. Overall, I’m left with mixed feelings.
The show focuses on a death metal band named Dethklok. In the first episode, they first throw a concert in …

I did it deliberately..what did I do deliberately? I deliberately watched Rosie’s new variety show lastnight. Why? So I could confirm for myself that there is no hope for Tv, and that Rosie should retire and go take care of her kids. It has been a long time since …

“Split Decision” was a pretty good episode, however, I found it hard to keep up with. Maybe I’m just a little on the dumb side and have to have everything spelled out for me, but somehow I got lost and could not figure out how the ending occurred.
Now …

Super Mario World - “A Little Learning” is not one of my favorite episodes of the series. That is actually an understatement as I really do not care for this episode. The plot simply did not quite interest me. In this episode, Princess Toadstool opens a school and the …

Glee is a new TV show on it’s first season on Fox. There are really only a handful of shows on Fox that I enjoy and I try to avoid this network as much as possible because they have a tendency to cancel shows that I like, I’m hoping …

There are a lot of judge courtroom shows on television today. One of my least favorite is the “Judge Joe Brown” television show. As a judge, I find him to be the least entertaining, charismatic, and competent judge. Every time that I watch his show, I …

Alias Smith and Jones: The Great Shell Game is really nicely done. As I said in my last review for the prior episode, however, it’s a show where the two stars, Pete Duel and Ben Murphy, are separated. In fact, they don’t have a single scene together. …

M*A*S*H: Sometimes You Hear the Bullet is a masterpiece edition of this show in my opinion. I clearly recall watching this show the first time it aired. In fact, I taped it on a cassette recorder when it was rerun because I thought it was just that …

Friends Episode: When Rachel makes dessert is a very funny episode. As normal, all the friends are gathered one by one and they are all shocked and surprised that Rachel wants to make a dessert all of a sudden. And when she was preparing the cake, Ross and …

“Primeape Goes Bananas” is an episode of the “Pokemon” series. It’s primarily a comedy episode and it focuses on Ash’s attempts to get his hat back after the fight Pokemon Mankey steals it and refuses to give it back. Ash spends practically the entire episode attempting to attack Mankey, …

One show that I have found rather interesting is broadcasted on the Discovery Channel, and is called Little People, Big World. Maybe it is the social worker in me, but I really do enjoy watching the show. It takes a family in which the parents are both …

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The City Beneath the Sea, episode two of season one, had the Seaview trying to unearth the mystery about two ships that have disappeared in the waters of Greece. Ultimately, Captain Lee Crane (David Hedison) does a bit of sleuthing, skin …

I have to admit, although Stephen King is a favorite writer of mine, I have not read every single one of his books. One that I somehow missed was “The Langoliers.” I think I read the synopsis and for some reason couldn’t get sold on the idea.
I …

Kojak himself, Telly Savalas, was roasted by a dais of entertainers on this outing of The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast, which was filmed in Las Vegas. The Man of the Hour took his seat while being honored, zinger style, by those on the dais. Now those on …

The Andy Griffith Show: Briscoe Declares for Aunt Bee, which originally aired in October 1963, is not one of my favorite episodes. As well as the actors play their roles, I’m not a big fan of the Darling family, a mountain clan who occasionally come to Mayberry and …

Voyagers!: The Day the Rebs Took Lincoln is a fun outing for this freshman series that treats viewers to a look at American history. The concept is that two voyagers go through time to fix things that go wrong and make sure that history remains on track. …

Normally, I like pretty much everything my daughter is exposed to on Nick. However, their addition of the show Back at the Barnyard is an insult to parents everywhere.
There is nothing worthwhile about that show. The jokes are 100 times cruder than some “adult” cartoons on television and I …

The plot surrounding That Girl: I Ain’t Got Nobody is that Ann’s picture is inexplicably in a major girlie magazine, creating chaos for everyone who knows her and interfering with her attempt to be cast on a children’s show with a character called Captain Gooney (Kenneth Mars).
A positive thing …

My wife decided she would rather talk to her pretend friends on Facebook last night than spend any time with me so I turned on another re-run of the show Psych that I had not seen before. This time around, it was the season 3 episode Disco Didn’t Die, …

I have just started watching this show, but I am really enjoying it. For those not familiar with the story line, a young american named Todd, is sent to management training school in the first episode and returns to find his entire workforce has been fired and management has …

Vegas Run is the fourth episode of this very short-lived crime series that stars Rex Smith as Jesse Mach. By day, he’s a desk cop. When not doing that, he secretly drives this high-tech motorcycle and fights crime on the QT.
Sybil Danning guest stars as Linda Martin, …

Philip Ahn guest stars as Mr. Kim, the tailor, in M*A*S*H: Change Day. Ahn has been in other episodes of this comedy, including the one in which Alan Alda virtually did a one-man show when Hawkeye Pierce was injured and had to keep talking in case he had …

“The Making of a Councilman” is an episode from “The Dick Van Dyke Show”. It continues and concludes the story started in the previous episode, “I Do Not Choose to Run”. In the previous episode, much of the story focused on Rob’s decision whether or not to run for …

Here’s to the Future is the first part in the two-hour finale for Season 5 of Grey’s Anatomy. And if you’re a fan of the series, you would know that season finales are usually one of the best episodes in the series.
The episode revolved around Izzie and her …

For me, there isn’t anything terribly exciting about this episode of Adam-12 entitled Log 75: Have a Nice Weekend. The segment I key in on more than the others is one with Norma Connolly as Eva Foster. I met the late Ms. Connolly a few times, and …

Bravo TV has some interesting and great water cooler reality shows, but it amazes me if anyone talks about The Rachel Zoe Project, except to say how self-absorbed and high maintenance Rachel Zoe is.
Frankly, I’d never heard of her until seeing the commercials for her show during other reality …

The Molly Kincaid Story was the first color episode of Wagon Train. It was also the first ninety minute episode of the very popular western. Westerns were very much ‘in’ during the sixties, and when color came into play, the executives decided to go big with their …

Until my recent rewatch, I forgot how well this pilot set up all of the conflicting forces in Sydney Bristow (Jennifer Garner)’s life — SD-6 versus the CIA; her father versus her independence; her graduate studies in literature versus her work as a spy; and her personal life versus …

Catherine Piper robbed a convenience store. She blamed Alan because she was promised a job after she was fired from Crane,Poole and Schimdt. According to her, Alan forgot it and since she needs to eat, she robbed a store. Her version was its better to do the robbing than …

While the name this episode of The Adventures of Brisco County Jr. might lead one to think there’s baseball in the mix, there isn’t. Brooklyn Dodgers is named for two teenagers who are on their own, fending for themselves, after a tragic accident years earlier that caused the …
