Diagnosis Murder: Nirvana isn’t really a favorite episode of this series for me, but it still has some good moments. Dick Van Dyke is so good that he takes the mediocre and makes it worth watching. In this first season outing, Van Dyke’s Dr. Mark Sloan checks …

Teach - Tony Danza: Solidarity is the fifth hour of this documentary. The premise has this performer known for Taxi and Who’s the Boss actually teaching English at Northeast High School in Philadelphia. It’s been a challenge for him, but I think he’s grown, and I continue …

OK, my wife and I just finished watching the last two episodes of the first season of the show Ghost Hunters. Rather than reviewing those, I figured I would take a minute to recap what I thought of the entire season. And, unfortunately, the answer to that is “not …

The Prisoner: A. B. and C. is more intriguing to me than the few other episodes I’ve seen thus far. It might be because it’s not so much the crazy FX or even The Village, but has as its setting a party scene, probably in London. The …

Just as Scully’s mother is preparing her daughter’s headstone, the abducted FBI agent appears in a hospital bed, seemingly out of thin air. None of the doctors have any idea how she got there, who admitted her, or even what her condition is beyond being comatose.
This episode is …

Recap: Eobard Thawne aka Reverse-Flash returned however to figure out what time period, he devised a runaway Mack chemical truck which enabled him to know which time Flash belonged to and in order to get back home, he kidnapped Dr. McGee of Mercury Labs. Meanwhile, Cisco enlisted Harry’s assistance on …

Black Gold: New Management was the season 3 opener of this reality series, and things are a little different this year. Now first I have to warn that sometimes I wonder why I turn on this thing. Initially, I wanted to see some of that life of …

I just smile when I see the every day qualities that are so real in this show about the life of these space puppets. In Fireball XL5: A Day in the Life of a Space General, Lieutenant Ninety is a little overtired and ends up getting yelled at …

This is probably the strongest episode of the bunch so far. The writing is getting better and this episode had the strongest villain to date, both literally and figuratively.
My one complaint about this episode is that it seems less like a “Birds Of Prey” episode and more like …

Death Runs Wild, featuring Anne Baxter, is the first episode of the detective drama, Checkmate. Checkmate, Inc. is actually the name of a private detective agency run by Don Corey and Jed Sills, as played by Anthony George and Doug McClure. The third regular is Sebastian Cabot, …

The 7th Season of MASH seemed to focus a lot on the stuff the characters were missing while in Korea, ranging from them learning new medical techniques they weren’t aware of to them arranging a get-together of their families back home.
They also spend much of the season dealing with …

Death Note Episode 23 begins with Higuchi having a conversation with Rem after Matsuda doesn’t die after he wrote down his name while L tries to figure out who or what he’s talking to.
This episode was really good and had lots of twists and turns and surprises. I …

Have Gun - Will Travel: The Great Mojave Chase, episode 3 of season 1, starts out with some fun humor, all stemming from Paladine buying a camel to take across the Mojave Desert. It creates quite a stir. Written by Gene Roddenberry, the best part was the …

Bring ‘Em Back Alive continues its opening with Seven Keys to Singapore: Part 2. We’ve met all the main characters now — Bruce Boxleitner as Frank Buck, animal hunter and now part time secret agent of sorts, Cindy Morgan as Gloria Marlowe, the Miss Kitty to Boxleitner’s Sheriff …

Now that I have a 1 month old, I find myself up at late hours taking care of her. As a result, I end up looking for something on TV to help me stay awake.
One of those things I came across was Classic AWA Wrestling on Espn Classic. I …

This is a rather very funny episode that allows both Haim and Feldman some alone time together to hang out. It all begins with Haim catching Feldman having a smoke due to the stressful tension he’s had to deal with between Susie and Haim. So as a result, Haim …

Rebecca Romijn on Ellen was a real fun watch. Here is a beautiful and very talented actress and she is super down to earth. And I have seen some celebrities on any given show at all like example talk-shows and they will have this kind of air or …

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 …

Modern Marvels is a great show brought to the viewing public by the History channel.
I like being able to tun this program on and then learn about some of the structures and how they were built. Everything from collapsed and fixed bridges to antenna towers to bullet trains …

It’s time for the alumni to get together in That Girl: The Reunion. The subject of the fourth season episode is Ann’s obligation to organize her class reunion. She’s fine with that at first. After all, the worst part of it is choosing a restaurant, since …

The whole season of Heroes season 3 has been quite a ride. I guess there could never be any other series that would have this impact on me as the Heroes have. I followed through the first season, can’t wait for the 2nd season and now that I am …

Diagnosis Murder: 35 Millimeter Murder starts off interestingly enough with Mark Sloan (Dick Van Dyke) receiving the wrong set of photos that he’d just had developed. This is a great way to start a story. It’s very easy to identify with as I’ll bet it’s happened to …

CSI: Crime Scene Investigation: House of Hoarders took a look at something that is getting a lot of attention in today’s world, and that is the topic of hoarders. Hoarders are essentially those who cannot throw anything away. As much as some of us consider ourselves to …

Once again, we have a fantastic episode. Sadly, Donna sits this one out, but that gives more time for the other characters to shine (or not given what happens) as well as putting more focus on the Doctor himself.
Interestingly enough, this trip was meant to be more recreational …

The Amazing Race: They Don’t Call This the Amazing Race for Nothin’ was the beginning of the 17th season for this Emmy winning reality show where pairs go off in search of adventure in the hopes of bringing home the million dollar prize.
This season there are two couples …

Stargate SG-1: Family is the second of the Jaffa-centered episodes. This time, Teal’c’s son has been kidnapped by Apophis, and SG-1 goes to save the day. Unfortunately, Teal’c gets a shock when he discovers his wife, Drey’auc, has dissolved their marriage and remarried, all in an attempt …

The Backscatter episode of Numb3rs began with what I perceive to be a ridiculous chase seen. We know it’s a hacker doing something from an alley. They get blocked in, both front and back, and yet the two get out of the car and out of the …

Tom Sullivan, who is blind in reality, guest stars in M*A*S*H: Out of Sight, Out of Mind, a very nice show from early in the fifth season of this quality wartime TV series. Wounded and blinded as a soldier, his character provides support temporarily to Hawkeye Pierce (Alan …

Much as I don’t like Jaffa-centered stories, I’m also not fond of the Abydonian storylines on this series either. Stargate SG-1: Secrets, however, is a story that takes place in good part on Abydos. It’s been one Abydonian year to the day that Daniel left the planet …

A new girl at school Alison begins to beat Lisa in every field. Whether it is education, extra-curricular activities, and so on. This makes Lisa very jealous of Alison. She does not get the post in the band, but Alison does. This makes her feel threatened. She decides to …

The beauty of The Twilight Zone: Ninety Years Without Slumbering belongs to one person and one person only — Ed Wynn, who portrays Sam Forstmann. Sam is a kind older man living with his daughter and her husband. He has with him an old grandfather clock, a …

During its run, Adam-12 did a few Christmas episodes, and what I love about these shows is that they are all different in style and tone. I’ve always applauded the powers that be ability to acknowledge the holiday season and do it not only in an entertaining fashion …

Ruben wants to jump from a building and kill himself because he has invented a personal phone that you can carry around and the investment failed. Everyone thinks that the idea is silly but Sam says to Ruben that he is ahead of his time because in future all …

What a horrible way to go out. The legendary Star Trek series ended its three year run on NBC on June 3, 1969 with a show called Turnabout Intruder. In this show, one of Kirk’s old flames wants revenge for him leaving her, so she actually uses …

Criminal Minds is a new show on CBS that features the Behavioral Analysis Unit of the FBI solving crimes. I really love this show! It’s kind of like Profiler meets CSI. The story lines were always great and I really liked all of the different characters on the team. …

I have to admit I really get a kick out of M*A*S*H: An Eye for a Tooth from season seven. It’s a show that focuses on humor via some practical jokes. Unlike some other episodes which have had prankster storylines that were over-the-job and almost boring, this …

In the prior episode of That Girl, Ann and Don had planned to visit the Maries in Brewster, but Don had to work. In this episode entitled Bad Day at Marvin Gardens, the Maries come to the city to spend the weekend with the couple, starting with a …

I love watching Way Too Early. It’s a TV show that comes on on MSNBC. It comes on at 5:30 am. I very rarely am able to catch it when it initially comes on due to the fact that it comes onb so early. I …

I was looking forward to seeing the one-off drama ‘Worried About the Boy’ and I think it was one of the best things on television lately. It re-enacts the story of how Boy George, of Culture Club fame, rose to fame back in the early 1980s but I …

Allison has another dream (she has them a lot, well I guess that’s the whole point of the show, isn’t it). In this dream she hears and sees the song “I Will Survive” playing loudly and she is dancing to it as if she was in a video clip. …

Star Trek: The Next Generation - The Best of Both Worlds Part Two is almost as good as part one, although it too unfortunately suffers from a few flaws like the first half. For example, it is real unfortunate that the episode does not show any of the fleet’s …

The episode starts with Tyra giving a highlight of the past seasons. These include the plus size models they have, the cat fights of the girls, the emotional make-overs, the past winners and hilarious moments.
Then the 10th cycle contestants were introduced. They were asked to go to this …

Last night was the first time I actually took some time to watch the show Ghost Hunters International with my wife. Overall, it wasn’t a terrible program. But, I’m not sure if it was as good as I expected it to be.
I’ve watched the American version of the show …

Steve-O dropped by to explain his back injury that kept him from dancing the night before. He’s fine and wants to stick around. He also reminded everyone that Lacey Schwimmer, the pro, advised him not to do the flip that caused his injury. Lacey is known …

Strangely enough, the third season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer starts almost identical to the second season; with Buffy as far away from Sunnydale as possible. Of course, in the season premiere “Anne” she has reached the point where she feels the need to hide from her friends and …

Log In For Love is a new show on TBS. It follows the dating lives of tweleve different women in New York City. The show is done in a documentary like style. Overall its a pretty interesting show to watch, just to see see how other people go about …

I like to watch Tom and Jerry and this one of my favourite episodes. This episode is entitled push-button kitty and it starts off with Tom relaxing right next to Jerry’s mouse hole while he sneaks out and comes back with a piece of cheese while the owner alerts …

That was a really, but really boring episode. I did not enjoy it at all. I don’t know what they were thinking when they were writing it. Not only that nothing really happens in there, but the whole story just is not quite believable.
In the first story line, …

Only 16 more episodes remain of the series Monk. And, after last night’s episode “Mr. Monk Fights City Hall” I’m really finding myself not caring too much anymore. And, that’s kind of sad considering this was my favorite show at one point.
The episode, which featured Monk trying to save …

If you read any of my reviews about Seven days, where I am always saying that the show is very simple and predictable maybe this sentence will shock you: I am sorry it ended. Yeah, that’s true I really am. Not because of this episode, I mean, CERTAINLY not …
