Once they arrive, they are given a case involving a very well known sports writer who …

I didn’t like this episode at all because of the way that it was filmed and edited. The writing was actually not bad. In this episode the team investigates two murders. One of a hot male celebrity and another of a poor Thai immigrant. From the very beginning of …

OK, I know the show House has been going downhill a bit over the past couple seasons but last night’s episode “The Softer Side” was one of the few times I felt like I wasted an hour of my life watching it.
I’m not sure what’s worse, having a patient …

With interest in the Uefa Champions League touching all corners of the earth, a weekly show like the Uefa Champions League Magazine, which rounds up all the previous week’s exploits is a welcome necessity for me, and something that has become a huge part of my football lifestyle.
I think …

The much hyped pilot episode of Lone Star was directed by Peter Horton, so I assumed off the bat that it should be a riveting and quality show. In reality, it was. It included a couple of memorable lines, even. I was fascinated by an early …

I decided to take a leap of faith tonight and watch Ghost Whisperer: Leap of Faith. Up until earlier this year, I was a big fan of the show. I wasn’t always happy with the direction it took (I hated it when Melinda’s best friend was killed …

Carroll O’Connor guest stars in That Girl: A Tenor’s Loving Care as a blustery and arrogant tenor who Don Hollinger (Ted Bessell) is supposed to interview, or at least try to interview. When Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) goes with him, Giuseppe Casanetti, the tenor, says he’ll only to …

Maybe I’m just old, or maybe there was just too much going on, but I found the pilot movie for Private Eye to be very confusing in its set up. The first half hour just left me wondering who was who and what was what. It did …

I didn’t get to watch the entire Bones season premiere last night because I was busy with a few other things at the time (thanks to my wife turning a simple cleaning project into a complicated redecoration of our living room). What I did see of it, however, did …

Synopsis: Spongebob and Patrick end up with a “magical” pencil that brings anything they draw with it to life. They think it is great, until Spongebob draws himself and his new character steals the pencil and starts using it for evil purposes.
What I liked about this episode: At first, …

From 1995, Diagnosis Murder: Call Me Incontestable takes on the world of dating outfits. This one is called Perfect Couple and after a friend of Mark’s is murdered, the investigation leads to that business.
Here are a few highlights of this show from my perspective:
–There’s a bit when Mark …

I would prefer to watch So You Think You Can Dance instead of other shows like American Idol or America’s Got Talent because there’s something that stands out to me about that show. I love seeing how many talented people there are out there, and they way that they …

Most of you probably remember, from 1994 to 2004, the television show, “Friends.” When the show first started off, people involved in the show were not entirely positive that it would stick around beyond the first few episodes. Lisa Kudrow even kept her role on the show …

Dragons Den, a television show that took a little while to take off over here. Perhaps because of the “Dragons” involved, but also due to it only being broadcast at a more suitable time on a more mainstream channel in the last two years.
The purpose of the show is …

Sa Re Ga Ma Pa is one of my favorite programs in Zee Tv. The main motto of the program is to bring out the talents in youth. It is basically a music competition. The panel selects few talented youths to contest on the stage among the lacs of …

I’m on the lookout for new TV shows every season and I found this cyberpunk thriller drama in the summer 2015 batch. A second season was announced even before the pilot premiered and it’s nice to see such faith in the quality of the show. There’s talk of Mr. Robot …

Mythbusters is an entertaining educational program airing on the Discovery Channel. In each episode, a team of “mythbusters” tests the feasibility of various myths and urban legends. For example, past episodes have tested whether a tissue box in the back window of a car can injure the …

Stargate SG-1: Death Knell is not a favorite. I don’t like it for a number of reasons. The show starts off with Sam and Jacob at the Alpha Site being sort of snippy with each other. Jacob claims they don’t talk anymore. This little tidbit …

Chris McKann, president of 1-800-Flowers, was the center of the season finale of Undercover Boss. It was interesting to watch for a couple of reasons, one of which was the particular history of this flower company. Chris is the younger brother of the founder and CEO, Jim …

From November 1961, The Andy Griffith Show: Opie’s Hobo Friend had a superb guest star. Buddy Ebsen appeared as David Browne, a hobo who is befriended by Opie Taylor (Ron Howard).
Ebsen’s laid back manor and easy going acting ability really sells the audience on Browne being a hobo. …

Amongst the waves of reality television shows that flock the ‘prime time’ television hours, Face Off is by far, or was, the most interesting of the bunch. With the large amount of talent-based shows including the X-factor, American Idol, and America’s Got Talent, playing on T.V.’s across America, singers …

Chuck has to be my favorite show to hit television in the 2007/2008 season. I am the kind of person who watches a lot of Television so I think I have a pretty good idea of what goes over well with America’s audiences.
Chuck premiered on NBC in 2007 …

I like the show Invisibleman because it is about a man who can turn invisible, and who wouldn’t like to be able to turn invisible sometimes, imagine what you could do when invisible. Darien Fawkes works for an agency and they are trying to find a way to get …

Diagnosis Murder: The Plague had some good moments in it. I love shows with angst, but there really wasn’t as much of that as you might think from the title. In fact, in one sense you could say that The Plague was educational, informing the public of …

Every so often there’s an episode from the Law and Order franchise that disturbs you and makes you feel uncomfortable. For me that was this episode of Criminal Intent. The episode starts out calmly enough, with a man trying to raise money, though he doesn’t say what. He tries …

Sam has a dream in which everyone is blocked in time except him. He invites Annie for a cappuccino but she says she doesn’t know what a cappuccino is. That’s really funny isn’t it? Sam is from 2008 and he had an accident and woke up in 1973 so …

Criminal Minds Season 3 Episode 3 Scared to Death
This is one of the more brilliant episodes on the show. In this episode, a disturbed psychiatrist, still unable to deal with issues resulting from an abuse he received as a child, is killing his patients by giving them the …

Highway Patrol: Cargo Hijack, a half hour police drama from the early years of television, was a show from its fourth and final season on the air, the 26th to be exact.
This episode is a story about a robbery team that doesn’t do their homework. Sheila Nolan (Cathy …

Fire on the Wing, episode 6 of Street Hawk, is probably my favorite of the series, and there’s a really good reason for that. One of my most enjoyed actresses appears in a main guest starring role. Kristen Meadows, who I had followed for years on One …

William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy some nice thoughts in The Birth of a Timeless Legacy featurette, which tells about the way Star Trek came to be. There is a review of the two pilots (The Cage and Where No Man Has Gone Before). The one thing that …

The Bernie Mack show is just great. I loved this show since the first time I saw it on TV. I now watch this show ever day. As you know Bernie Mack is a comedian and he is very funny. In the show he gets really crazy and wild.
The show …

I once again sat down to watch an episode of Futurama with my oldest daughter last night. And, since it was the next one on the DVD, we ended up watching the season 1 episode entitled “Mars University.”
This one was an OK episode but not an overly great one. …

I was wondering, as many others do, about how can Simon, Randy and Paula audition all of those huge crowds gathering up in every city the popular show is auditioning. It is just not possible for that to actually happen. Simple math says 10000 people auditioning in one city …

In Touching Evil: Boston, David Creegan (Jeffrey Donovan) and the FBI team travel to Boston for their latest case. It’s an emotional trip of sorts because Boston is where Creegan grew up, so he has a lot of memories there, many of which he is conflicted about.
My favorite …

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 54 begins with a flashback of just after the Ishval war and Hawkeye requests that Mustang deface the tattoo on her back that is her father’s alchemy research. Hawkeye confronts Mustang and tricks Envy into revealing himself. She tries to kill him …

I used to love to watch Three’s Company every day after school when I was little. I can remember getting in trouble for having the television on when I was supposed to be doing my homework. That’s how much I loved to watch the show. I was so sad when …

I was watching The Simpsons last night and finally got to see one episode I have seen parts of but never got to watch in its entirety before “Bart has Two Mommies.” It’s an OK episode but not the greatest one I’ve seen.
Basically, there are two stories. The first …

Columbo: A Matter of Honor from season five has some good and bad points to it from my point of view. Ricardo Montalban is the primary guest star, playing bullfighter Luis Montoya. Pedro Armendáriz Jr. plays Commandante Sanchez, who Columbo ends up working with in Mexico. …

The special affects in this series are truly amazing and you’d swear the extinct creatures racing across your TV screen are real. They look that genuine. This is also the third in the BBC “Walking With” series, the series that started with “Walking with Dinosaurs”. The creatures in this …

The action in this fourth episode of Changing Lanes begins with the racers talking about Juan Pitta’s elimination from the competition. This left 8 men and women to vie for four jobs with Revolution Racing, Max Siegel’s racing team. As of the filming, which was a year …

Shark Week is a series of nature specials on sharks that airs every year on the Discovery Channel. Every year, five or six different episodes of nature shows on sharks make up this collection of programs. This particular episode, how not to become shark bait, focuses on …

I remember back in the early 80’s when Emerald Point N.A.S. was about to air. I was very excited about the series for a number of reasons. My favorite reason for wanting to watch it was Richard Dean Anderson, who played Lt. Simon Adams. He sure looked …

The opening of this third episode is a hoot. Pratt is on a book tour in the south, a bad mistake since his dime novels are all about Yankees. Just as some unhappy southerners are about to do harm to him and in fact have him hanging …

I just finished watching an episode of “Good Eats.” The episode was about making homemade bacon. The plot of this show was “Scrap Iron Chef” and the secret ingredient was Pork belly. Alton Brown competed against a midwest native to see who could make the best …

Synopsis: Al and Peggy get in a fight over going to her cousin’s wedding (she wants to go and he doesn’t) so he decides to follow through on his threat of not coming home and stays at his co-workers bachelor pad.
What I liked about this episode: I’m still glad …

The second of six episodes for The Great British Bake Off occurs in Scotland, and it’s quite picturesque. I think I love watching the scenery almost more than I do the cooking aspects of these programs. I also love the cooking set up which has the bakers under …

It isn’t often that a fictional television show actually moves me to the point I’m almost in tears. But, last night’s episode of Bones, “The Finger in the Nest,” was one that made me feel like I had a knife stabbed into my heart.
I’m not even sure where to …

Like the episode before it, this episode takes place largely in the past, though there was more time spent in the present.
It was pretty creepy seeing the whole city turned to stone. A few characters remain, Xanatos and the blind writer from earlier, but by and large all …

Charlie Sheen and John Cryer are Charlie and Alan Harper. Two brothers more or less sharing a house on the beach. Actually Charlie owns the house and Alan is just there because he had a choice a roof or the street in order to pay his ex-wife alimony and …
