That Girl - Season Two DVD set
Again, my problem with the Shout Factory DVD release of this show, and others that they’ve done, is how inconvenient the layout is. Since this is only a four-disk set, it’s not as bad as others, but what they tend to do is put two DVDs on the …

Doctor Who: Season 3, Episode 12: Utopia
So we come to the first part in the three part season finale. While the season was mostly stand-alone episodes with the “Saxon” arc only getting brief mention, this still manages to be a culmination of everything that’s happened so far.
Team TARDIS finds themselves landing on Earth in …
Dead Like Me: Sunday Mornings
Dead Like Me: Sunday Mornings showed how JD the golden retriever was adjusting to life with the Lass family. It was their first semi-normal moment since the series began. I’m still worried about the dog, and it’s distracting me from the rest of the show.
A.J. Cook guest …

Beast Wars - Transmutate
Beast Wars - Transmutate is a story that is sad and most certainly different. I like it for a couple of reasons. For one, it offers a subliminal commentary on how that which is different is often the source of disgust and sometimes the source of feelings that desire …

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Man-Beast TV Show
From February 1968, the 20th show of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea’s last season (it’s fourth) on television, Man-Beast, aired. It’s a show I have mixed feelings about because of the story’s plot. The primary guest star was Lawrence Montaigne, who played a scientist named …

YOUNG SHELDON, series
As a fan of THE BIG BANG THEORY, I couldn’t help but watch its spin-off YOUNG SHELDON.
Honestly, when I found out that the leading roles would be given to children, I had my doubts, but would the series be interesting? After all, children are much harder to play …
Bones TV Episode: The Witch in the Wardrobe
I kind of suspected all the hype about Kathy Reichs writing the script to last night’s episode of Bones, The Witch in the Wardrobe, would lead to some disappointment. And, I was right.
While an OK episode, this one actually was a bit weaker than expected and I just didn’t …

The Simpsons: Behind the Laughter
Last night, I had a chance to watch a Simpsons episode I haven’t had a chance to see in its entirety before “Behind the Laughter.” I have to admit it was kind of funny.

Stargate Universe: Air Part 1
My interest in the Stargate Program is pretty much confined to the first eight years of Stargate SG-1. I did not like Stargate Atlantis and its affect on SG-1, and I suppose for much of the same reasons, I haven’t been interested in Stargate Universe, either. However, …
Stargate SG-1: Menace
As season five of Stargate SG-1 winds down, it offers up what is actually a very good episode in Menace, except for a couple of mitigating factors and one really big episode omission.

The Carol Burnett Show: Ken Berry and Roddy McDowall TV Show
This episode of The Carol Burnett Show featured Ken Berry and Roddy McDowall. It’s from the 11th season and apparently was one right after the beginning of the year. The monologue was pretty funny. Some guy asked her if she needed a lawyer and gave Burnett …
The X-Files Bad Blood Episode
I can remember this episode quite well. This was because this was an episode about vampires and it was more humorous to me than I would have expected an X-Files episode about vampires to be. I didn’t find it top be extraordinarily scary either, or gruesome like I found …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Zero Hour TV Show
This futuristic story that aired originally in January 1992 was called The Ray Bradbury Theater: Zero Hour. Overall, I thought it was a story that began with a lot of potential but then took a wrong turn and ended up a bit sour, at least for me. …
Thriller: The Hungry Glass TV Show

Fans of Buffy the Vampire Slayer such as myself were delighted to hear Faith/Eliza Dushku would be continuing to act in the supernatural genre of television. She had turned down her own spin off from Buffy just to do Tru Calling. The Pilot is where us fans were holding …
The Twilight Zone: The Passersby TV Show
This 1961 outing, The Twilight Zone: The Passersby, isn’t a big favorite of mine, but it is a good show. I think the reason I’m not fond of it is because it’s somewhat dark. There isn’t really anything happy about it, and I prefer happy stories.
It’s the …
