Trust (Starhunter Episode)
Trust is a bit better of a Starhunter episode than the one that preceded it: Peer Pressure. Here the villains of the day are a bit less annoying, and a bit more sinister. I also really like the concept behind the new prison: a completely automated prison …
Peer Pressure (Starhunter Episode)
This is a particularly and unfortunately bad episode of the Starhunter television series. I love Starhunter, it is one of my favorite television programs ever produced, but unfortunately this is not one of the better episodes to come from the franchise. It at times verges on the …
The Divinity Cluster (Starhunter Episode)
Starhunter is one of my favorite television shows ever. Why I have no idea, there is no real surface reason to like it. In terms of writing, acting, special effects, etc., etc., it is all sub-par. But there is some special charm about the Starhunter universe …
The Simpsons Season 3
The third season of The Simpsons isn’t exactly the best season in the show’s history, but it’s far from the worst too. When you watch the earlier seasons now, it can sometimes be hard to compare the characters to how they look and sound now. That problem doesn’t appear …
Monk Season 3
The third season of Monk was a transitional period, and that’s why I had to rate it so low. Sharona was one of my favorite characters and in this season she ended up leaving the show. I heard that it was a contract dispute and some money problems, but …
How I Met Your Mother Season 1
I was a latecomer to the world of How I Met Your Mother. I think when the first season actually aired, I only watched one or two episodes, if even that. A local store was having a sale on the first season DVD set, so I decided to go …
Sabboo Grande Univision
Sabbro Grande is a Game show that is on Univision every Saturday Night at 8pm until 11pm on Univision KUNS-51 Seattle, I watch it from a pre-amp outdoor antenna from Ladysmith, BC and I don’t get a clear signal. It is Hosted by Dan Francsico and it Studios is …
American Dad - S01 E01
I watched a New TV Program called American Dad that aired after the superbowl and it all stated in the kitchen table with Stan Family. Stan Disapporived Hayley Lifesytles and Steve told Stan that he want a date with Lisa Sliver. then Stan give his wife Francine Kisses and …
Popular Season 1
Popular was an underappreciated show on the now gone WB Network. The show never took itself seriously, nor did the actors, and that was part of the fun of watching. You never knew when the characters would stage a cat fight in the middle of a scene, or break …
Taken Miniseries
Taken was a massive miniseries that aired on the Sci-Fi Channel and was produced by Steven Spielberg. The series covered 50 years of alien history, beginning with the Roswell incident. I watched it when it aired on television, and also grabbed the boxed set when it came out and …
Full Metal Alchemist
Full Metal Alchemist is a anime series that is one of the best shows I have seen. Don’t judge the series by its title, because when I first heard of it, I was wondering if it was good because of the title.
I have come to the conclusion that it …
Golden Girls Season One Boxed Set
The first season of the Golden Girls is something completely random, and that is part of the reason why I had to rate the boxed set lower than I wanted too. As much as I love the episodes, the first season is disjointed and discombobulated, with no real pattern …
Full House Season 8
According to what I have read, season 8 of Full House was not meant to be the last season. The producers planned on doing one more season before ABC cancelled the show. It was then going to move to another network, but plans fell through. Die hard fans who …
Full House Season 7
Full House season 7 signaled the beginning of the end, though it doesn’t appear as though any of the cast knew it at the time. As I watched the episodes, I couldn’t help but wonder if the producers were planning on making it the last season, and then changed …
Full House Season 6
Season 6 of Full House is without a doubt my favorite season. The show finally grew beyond its awkwardness of the previous season, while introducing new characters and focusing on some long forgotten characters like Kimmie Gibbler from next door.
The main reason I loved this season so much …
Full House Season 4
Full House Season 4 is almost when the show tried to “jump the shark”. Granted it was a transitional time for the show as the kids were starting to grow, but things were still a little odd.
Little Michelle was now a toddler, and fully capable of talking. The …
Full House Season 2
I fully admit that I own every season of Full House on DVD, even though special features are sadly lacking. The second season is when the show began picking up, and when it started to find its footing.
As much as I love the show, even I have to …
Celebrity Apprentice Season Finale
Well, after waiting on pins and needles all week tonight the season finale Celebrity Apprentice was shown and I couldn’t be more disappointed. The whole season was exciting and watchers really didn’t know what was coming next but while the season finale promised to continue that them it really …
Steve Wilko Show
I know that a lot of people used to watch the Jerry Springer Show, well on that show was a gentlement, and I used the word acordingly a gentleman named Steve Wilko. He was a former police officer and a former marine.
when he took over the show …
MSNBC
All of the cable news networks have a slogan, or more than one; Fox News has “Fair and Balanced” and “We Report, You Decide” but none are as accurate in the opinion of this viewer and political junkie as MSNBC’s. With its line-up of entertaining and informative shows and …
Malcolm In the Middle
I was very sad to see Malcolm in the Middle get cancelled. It was one of my favorite shows and I could relate so well to that family. They are hard-working blue collar family, just like mine was when I was growing up, so I can totally understand most …
Steve Wilkos show
I wanted to write about a good show on t.v. It’s called the Steve Wildos Show. It’s a talk show about differant bad situations, and he tries to fix them. Some really bad people come on the show. And instead of just talking and being nice to them, like …
Ashes to Ashes
There’s a TV series that has been taking the UK by storm and, if you live outside the UK, it’s quite possible that the BBC will export it to your country. It’s called Ashes to ashes and is a sequel to the series Life on Mars.
The story in both …
Star Trek: The Next Generation
I have long been a fan of anything with the words “Star” and “Trek” in the title. I watched the original series many years ago. But, when Star Trek: The Next Generation came on the scene, I refused to watch it simply because I wasn’t willing to accept a …
October Road Show
When ABC launched October Road as a mid-season replacement series last year, I was hooked from the very first episode. It starts out approximately ten years ago with two of the main characters in bed saying “goodbye - for now”. It seems young Nick Garrett is heading to …
Monster Quest
I usually enjoy shows about mythical creatures. But, History Channel’s show, Monster Quest is one I can’t even sit through ten minutes of.
Overall, the show does a good job describing creatures like Big Foot and the Loc Ness Monster. However, rather than focus on the historical stories and leave …
Project Runway Season 4 Finale
If you ever wonder what exactly is wrong with the fashion industry, you should take a look at Project Runway’s Season 4 finale.
All I can say is “How in the heck did Christian win?” Granted, he had decent outfits throughout the series. But, the final winner was supposed to …
Leave It to Beaver
“Leave It to Beaver” is a reminder of an era that will never exist again. This classic television show was made during a time when most kids worries were more about grades, homework, crushes on the opposite sex and trying to get along with parents. Parents, teachers …
I Love New York show
“I Love New York” is a spin-off of “Flavor of Love.” “New York” was one of the competitors on “Flavor of Love” and I suppose VH-1 thought she was so outrageous that she deserved to get her own show. “I Love New York” has a houseful of men …
Beauty and the Geek
Of all of the reality shows flooding television today, there was always one that was unique, fun, and heart warming. It is Ashton Kutcher’s social experiment “Beauty and the Geek.”
If you aren’t familiar with the show, it general pairs somewhat or totally unsocialized “geeks” with “beauties” who have …
American Idol
American Idol is currently the number one show in the US. The show has already built itself a reputation of a top show, successfully surviving its first six seasons. TV Shows regularly fade away after a while, however American Idol is going strong into its 7th season. Its success …

Oprah has a new TV show and no surprise it’s all about giving. The Talk show host who has become famous for giving away lots herself, is now challenging others to do the same.
Oprah’s Big Give is a show with contestants all trying to help others. …
Moment of Truth TV Show
If you have yet to see the new Fox TV show, ‘The Moment of Truth’ you are missing out. To even think that a person could get paid for telling the truth seems crazy. But that is exactly what this show is all about.
On the …
Nip/Tuck
“Nip/Tuck” is like no other medical drama that has ever been on television. It is clearly not a show that is “family-friendly,” since it deals with a lot of extremely raw adult themes. The show revolves around two successful plastic surgeons- Dr. Sean McNamara and Christian Troy, their …
E! True Hollywood Story
“E! True Hollywood Story” is a documentary series that airs on E! Entertainment Television. Each episode features a biography of either individual celebrities or individual television shows and movies. I find most of them pretty interesting to watch, since they give you a background on famous people we …
COPS
“COPS” airs on Fox and each episode revolves around the daily experiences of police officers, as they go out on their patrols. I’m sure that, realistically-speaking, there are moments in a cop’s day that are very routine or mundane, but “COPS” focuses on the more dramatic aspects of …
The Tonight Show with Jay Leno
Most of us “Baby Boomers” grew up watching “The Tonight Show” when it was hosted by the inimitable Johnny Carson. Johnny was classy, witty and talented enough to make even the dullest guest look fascinating. Whenever you heard the show’s theme song start, you’d feel so excited, …
Judge Judy
We all have guilty pleasures and I guess mine is watching the various judge shows. One of my favorite shows of this genre is “Judge Judy.” The presiding jurist is Judith Sheindlin, who makes decisions about small claims cases. This is a tough, unsentimental lady who …
Good Times TV show
Before there was “The Cosby Show” or “House of Payne”, there was “Good Times. This Norman Lear comedy, which continues to live in syndication, was first aired during the 1970’s. It’s about the Evans, an African-American family that lives in the Chicago projects and their struggles to rise …
The Brady Bunch
I grew up watching “The Brady Bunch” and probably know the plot of every joyously corny episode. The great thing is that, due to the advent of cable television, other generations are able to enjoy this show, too, and I can tune in and satisfy my need for some …
Boston Legal
“Boston Legal” is about a law firm that consists of a team of skilled, but quirky defense lawyers. How can anybody not relish being able to see William Shatner and James Spader as Denny Crane and Alan Shore battle it out in a “ham” acting competition every episode? …
TV Show: The Outer Limits
The television show The Outer Limits is an older show and it always gave me the same eerie feeling as the Alfred Hitchcock series. I used to watch this show all the time but now I only catch it occasionally when the Sci Fi Channel does an Outer …
Eli Stone
Who is Eli Stone? If you are not watching the ABC network on Thursday nights than you probably have no idea. Eli Stone is the main character of a show with the same name. Eli just recently found that he suffers from an inoperable brain aneurism. It all started …
Oprah’s Big Give Episode 1
It seems like these days everyone has a reality show. Yes, Oprah has joined the reality bandwagon with her show The Big Give. On the first episode airing on Sunday March 2nd 2008, talk show queen Oprah Winfrey handed five groups of two contestants $2,500, a picture of someone …

The Dog Whisperer
Dogs can be spoiled, temperamental and unmannerly, just like human beings can. Many times, their owners contribute to the problem and, once they see that a problem has developed with their pet, they don’t know what to do to change him or her. On “The Dog Whisperer”, desperate …
Animal Miracles show
“Animal Miracles” is an inspirational television show that airs on the Animal Planet cable network. Hosted by Alan Thicke, each episode features stories about real-life stories where pets committed heroic acts by saving the lives of their owners. Too many people are just not aware of how important …
Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmem
“Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmem” is a Travel Channel show I started watching close to a year ago. To be honest, there are times when I can barely stand to look at it, but, at the same time, it is just fascinating to me that this man will …
Sex in the City show
How can you not love this show? I admit, being from the church background that I was, I was NOT going to watch this! But I did. And I fell in love.
My favorite character is Samantha. I LOVE Kim Catarall! I love how she is so confident and nothing …
