My Six Favorite Stephen J. Cannell TV Shows
It was announced that Stephen J. Cannell passed away Thursday night due to complications associated with melanoma. The prolific producer was responsible for so much TV Goodness especially in the 70s, 80s and 90s. His shows were campy fun and sometimes a little cheesy but they were also extremely entertaining and…
Dear Show: A Letter to the Producers of the CW’s Nikita
Dear Show: Thank you, thank you, thank you for casting Russell Wong in this week’s episode of Nikita called “Rough Trade.” At first I didn’t recognize him as Nikita’s first “kill.” But once I did I was beyond happy. It got even better once it was revealed that his character…
Moment of Goodness: Jennifer Love Hewitt on Law & Order: SVU
This morning I saw a Cheers & Jeers article on TVGuide.com about how great a job Jennifer Love Hewitt did on Law & Order: SVU. She played a rape victim that Detective Olivia Benson was trying to help. J-Love’s Vicki Sayers had been raped four times over the course of fifteen…
NCIS “Worst Nightmare”
That’s two episodes in a row of complete and utter NCIS goodness. “Worst Nightmare” showcased everything I love about this show: team chemistry, suspenseful case, good guest stars, classic Dinozzo lines; and a great sense of humor.

Undercovers “Pilot”
Premise Steven and Samantha Bloom are former spies that are now living the normal life as husband and wife caterers.

Castle “A Deadly Affair”
Season 3 of Castle picks up with an upset Beckett, Ryan and Esposito. It seems Castle’s back in town, he hasn’t written, he hasn’t called and most importantly he hasn’t returned to help solve crimes. And poor Rick doesn’t think he’s done anything wrong. He knows he wants to return…
NCIS “Spider and the Fly”
That was a really good wrap up to a story line that I wasn’t too into: the revenge against Gibbs for killing the man (Pedro Hernandez) that killed his family. It was definitely rich material to explore and Mark Harmon really nailed the performances throughout the run of the Reynosa…
