This season two episode has Mac and Pete trying to get back $400,000 that was stolen from a friend and …

Wow, that had to be the most predictable Project Runway finale ever. Arina entered it as the obvious favorite and, no surprise, she ended up winning it.
Of course, I have to say, compared to other seasons, this finale was a bit weak. Carol Hannah had a bit of an …

JD’s gone for good. Interestingly enough, Elliot decides to come in and make an appearance. I’ve noticed that the writing for the returning cast is still pretty spot on, but it’s the new characters who kind of drag it down.
Ok, Lucy is pretty amicable and Cole is pretty …

Guitarist Jim Lindsey returns to Mayberry in this May 1961 outing, The Andy Griffith Show: The Guitar Player Returns. Just like the first show earlier in the year that centered on this character, I’m not a big fan of this episode. It’s okay, and it’s ten times …

Now that Cleveland has …

Every year, I keep promising myself that I will not get sucked back into watching another season of “American Idol.” I just get way too caught up in the weekly results aspect of it. I keep telling myself that I will not ride that emotional rollercoaster again.
Then, of …

There’s danger board the teaser ends on Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Creature, the 15th episode of its third year on the air. It’s another leafy deep sea monster, and this one makes a yucky, screeching sound, too. It’s not long before it essentially …

Have Gun - Will Travel continued its third season with episode 32 entitled Ambush. In this show, the action starts right away without any fanfare, pleasant San Francisco teaser, or polite banter. It’s right to the intensity of the situation that Paladin (Richard Boone) finds himself in.
