This latest instalment of the superb series, The Universe, provides one of its most hypothetical episodes yet.
In this instalment, “Space Wars”, our favourite experts talk us through what war would be like in outer space. There’s rogue moon colonies, alien civilizations threatening the earth and potential solutions to protect …

Curb Your Enthusiasm’s seventh season continues with this impressive episode as Larry David tries to commence work on a Seinfeld reunion in an effort to win back wife Cheryl.
It’s an entertaining episode; there’s a lot going on and several regulars and recurring characters appear. All of the Seinfeld cast …

Buffy’s final Halloween centric episode is something of a mixed bag. While it does a great job in continuing the pre-existing character and story arcs to great effect, the story itself is weak and lacking. It certainly doesn’t manage to capture the playful essence of the holiday previously seen …

The eighth season of Family Guy continues with this so-so episode. After a check up at the hospital, Lois’ medical records reveal her mother Barbara is in fact of Jewish descent. Initially uncomfortable with the idea, Lois begins to investigate her heritage, a heritage which Peter soon embraces. But …

Any fan of the original Shining movie will know Stephen King wasn’t best pleased with Kubrick’s adaptation, and in this mini-series, King has the chance to rectify those issues and bring in ignored elements of the book.
The story is the same, the Torrence family spend the winter in …

The Family Guy spin off picks up steam in its second episode as Cleveland becomes more centred in his new life.
When new stepdaughter Roberta reveals there’s a Father/Daughter dance at her school, Cleveland offers to step in and take her to save her the disappointment of her real …

The second season of Family Guy starts on steady footing with this enjoyable tale that was one of the first to really go crazy story wise.
In a complete stand alone, the Griffin family prepare for the impending year 2000. While everybody prepares for an promising celebration at Quagmire’s …

This entertaining enough parody of the horror movie Poltergeist proves to be a solid episode from the forth season.
It’s a pretty affectionate spoof, with Stewie stepping into the shoes of Carol Anne and effeminate Bruce popping up in a role influenced by Zelda Rubenstein’s diminutive medium. After a …

I’ve watched CSI: Crime Scene Investigation from the beginning. The show tends to have a decent amount of turnover, but their most difficult loss was that of William Petersen as Grissom, who departed midway through last season. I loved the way his exit was done, though, with …

Like I mentioned in another review, I’m home for a change and have been watching re-runs on TV. One of the shows I ended up watching was Beverly Hillbillies; more specifically, I watched the episode Big Chicken.
This was a funny episode (funnier than the description gave it credit for …

I haven’t seen the show I dream of Jeannie in ages. But, I was home today taking care of our youngest daughter and, since I didn’t have anything better to do, I was watching re-runs on TV.
The episode I saw, Battle of Waikiki, was definitely one that was interesting …

Well, I have to admit, after watching last night’s House episode “Tyrant” I was left wondering whether or not the title really pertained to this week’s patient on the show or if it was talking more about the doctors who treated him.
First of all, I have to give a …

Kim Possible is a show on Disney about a cheerleader and her bumbling sidekick (and his pet naked mole rat) who repeatedly saves the world. It is a very cute cartoon aimed mainly at teens, but also enjoyable for adults- or at least this adult.
In Steal Wheels, the first …

This begins the next multipart saga since the pilot. It’s fitting as this ties into the events of the pilot.
This episode gives us a glimpse into what Demona was up to while the other gargoyles were frozen. The events remain consistent with what happened in the pilot …

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 …

I discovered this adaptation after reading the short story for Examiner.com. A reader presented the oppurtunity to watch it after I reviewed the story itself.
This is definitely an adaptation that deserves mention as it is really good. William Hurt turns in a great performance. He deserves …

Farmfoods might not be a one stop supermarket, but it does offer a great deal of items that’ll substantially help you stock your freezer for a surprisingly low cost.
If you haven’t heard of or visited the store before; Farmfoods offers predominately frozen food, from deserts and ice cubes to …

While Family Guy enjoys its Star Wars parodies, the characters of American Dad are finally allowed to play around in their own spoof, this time taking on James Bond.
This stand alone, set outside of the show’s main canon; follows the villainous Tearjerker (Roger) who is determined to make the …

Toshiko finally comes to the forefront with her first feature episode when a seductive young woman comes into her life and offers her an amazing gift; a pendant which bestows her telepathic abilities. Initially hesitant, Toshiko is soon seduced by both Mary and the pendant, but is unprepared for …

The Doctor comes face to face with an old ally in this adventure. When he and Rose go undercover at a comprehensive school at the advice of friend Mickey; it’s not just a dastardly alien plot they come face to face with, when old companion Sarah Jane Smith bumps …

TV presenter and journalist Matthew Wright heads this morning discussion show that serves as a welcome change from the usual barrage of chat shows and property programs that dominate the morning schedules. Over the course of an hour and a half, Wright and a panel of three guests talk …

Probably more famed for her work on BBC3, Dawn Porter has tackled numerous subjects in her often light hearted documentaries before.
With this Channel 4 series, Porter tackles topics that are a bit weightier and difficult than her previous exposes. In particular, her investigations into mail order brides and polygamy …

If you’re a fan of any one of the comediennes interviewed in this series, you’ll be pleasantly surprised by it. Dawn French puts her eccentric characters and fiery energy onto the backburner as she takes the interviewer’s seat, bringing an enjoyable balance of the right questions and a liveliness …

Family Guy returns with the latest instalment in the Stewie and Brian centric “Road to..” episodes, with mixed success.
Usually, the “Road to…” episodes have always been great, especially the more recent ones. Brian and Stewie are unmatchable combination and the writing is usually on top form. However, this one …

Mark Gaitiss is the scribe behind this outing for the Doctor and Rose and brings the revival of Doctor Who some real weight as he moves away from the more light and frothy opening episodes and delivers a solid, spooky horror tale set in the murky streets of Victorian …

While you can’t call Final Destination a classic horror, when it first arrived on our screens it provided us with a relatively fresh and engaging concept that broke a repetitive streak in teen horror and now, three sequels later, probably stands as the best of the series.
It’s a high …

Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer aren’t the most straight laced of comics, and they’re certainly not the kind of performers who’ll appeal to everybody. However, with their sitcom “Catterick”, the offbeat pair manage to deliver something surprisingly…well traditional wouldn’t be the right word to use, but they don’t do …

I love watching this TV show not just only for entertainment but also for the insights and lessons I learned in every episode I watched. I usually watch this with my husband who was always ready to give comments and criticisms on how messy
and disorganized some people in America …

We had a few errands to run last night and didn’t have a lot of time to make a complicated dinner. So, my wife ended up cooking a Beef Stroganoff boxed dinner from the brand Reganno.
I’m not sure where we bought this dinner (I think it was Aldi) but …

Well, last night’s Project Runway challenge was kind of cool. The designers had to work in teams of two to make an outfit. Their only requirement is it had to be blue and it had to fit Macy’s Inc. line.
The winner would have their outfit sold by Macy’s, which …

I’m just glad that CSI is back on track. To me, it lost its footing in the previous season, which coincided with Grissom’s sabbatical. No matter how of course the producers bandaged the situation, the crack evidently showed.
To me this was understandable, for how do you cope …

I stopped watching CSI for a long time, although I had always been an avid fan. It was just that I had not much chance to watch TV with all the writing I was doing. So I guess I felt lucky to have been able to catch this …

This episode is one of the few truly good newer episodes, as it involves many different characters, all acting the way a bunch of nine year olds should probably act. Too often, the writers of South Park treat their characters as though they are grown, and while this may …

Being one of the newer episodes of South Park, Guitar Queero plays into the same self enhanced stereotypes the writers of the show have been playing into for a while. While the plot is clear enough, it relies too heavily on the subject matter to make it interesting and …

Every now and again, the writers of South Park come up with an idea so cheesy, and so pointless, that it turns out being fantastic. The idea to write an episode that would take place primarily in the world of warcraft may be a few years late, but it …

As South Park gets older, you can really start to see the wrinkles forming. The episode “Pinewood Derby” is a prime example of how far the writers now have to go to do something the show has not done before. As with the majority of the newer episodes, I …

Dancing with the Stars on September 23, 2009 was the first results show of the year, and it was full of special performances. Of course, there was the mystery of who would be kicked off the show, but in the end, it really wasn’t all that much of …

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, …

Centennial was an awesome, all-star mini-series that celebrates the land. That’s an oversimplification, but the epic begins with mountain men daring to enter Native American territory. We see pioneers settle in what becomes known as Colorado, and we go all the way to modern day. It’s …

By a fluke, I decided to watch a new drama called The Forgotten. The show stars Christian Slater, who isn’t a performer I’m particularly fond of. There’s no specific reason for that, other than he’s never appealed to me. In this show, he plays Alex Donovan, …

Has anyone else noticed that the new Jay Leno show is a lame version of his former show? I am not sure why, because he still manages to get great guests ( Kanye after the MTV awards debacle, Robin Williams and Halle Berry, just to name a few). But …

The first episode of the second series of Beast Wars is technically the fourth part in a six parter. This episode picks up directly where the second part of “Other Voices” left off and deals with the aftermath of that episode’s events. First of all, it is obvious that …

In the second part of the season finale of the first season of Beast Wars, “Other Voices”, a powerful weapon is fired upon the planet that the Maximals and Predicons have been waring. The aliens, determined to terminate the experiment, intend on wiping out all life on the planet. …

In this particular documentary from Louis Theroux, we see him attempting to bag an interview with Michael Jackson, which he never does because Michael gave his exclusive interview to Martin Bashir instead. We all know how badly that turned out. Ironically, Michael had wanted someone who would …

I have been buying from QVC for a few years now and I have absolutely no complaints with this company. They have their own channel available on freeview television and 24 hours a day I can watch and make my purchases at my own convenience. They basically …

“Power Play” is an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation that tells a story of three Enterprise officers, namely Data, Troi and O’Brien, having their
bodies seized and controlled by supposed spirits of a Federation vessel that crashed and was destroyed on a planet many, many years ago. The …

Once again, I spent my Wednesday night watching three shows and Destination Truth ended up being the most entertaining of the three.
Last night’s episode once again had the team investigating two cases.
The first case was an investigation of the ghost town around where the Chernobyl Power Plant had its …

Seriously now, is Meatloaf in every show I watch now or what? First he was on House, then he was on Monk and now he was a guest investigator on Ghost Hunters in their episode “A Bat out of Hell.”
In all fairness, he was quite entertaining to watch (though …

Well, I obviously have watched the show Law & Order SVU a bit too much in my lifetime because the cases are becoming a bit too easy to solve.
Last night’s episode, Sugar, was a good example of this.
I didn’t even get to see the first few minutes of the …

I got hooked watching this TV channel the first time we got our cable installed at home. Being a food fanatic and a trying hard cook, I enjoyed watching the different segments. There is always something new to learn especially when it comes to recipe ideas, food preparation, and …
