Banacek: Fly Me- If You Can Find Me (1974) Season 2, Episode 7

In today's world....not too far fetched!

[9/10 · 8 December 2023]

I really enjoyed this episode. It will be tough for Banacek to collect his fee for this one. How do you hide a large passenger airline in the dessert? Not really spoiling anything as it's already written the in the synopsis.

George Peppard, as usual, plays his part too a tee but.... Victoria Principal is terrific in this episode. (Not to mention she looks great).

Excellent chemistry in this show. It's really too bad Banacek didn't run for a few more seasons. There were a few weaker episodes but I pretty much enjoyed the entire series...

....many, many years after it aired. Highly recommended.

Hunter: Saturday Night Special (1986) Season 2, Episode 23

Excellent Season Finale

[10/10 · 26 February 2022]

Actually in this episode the supporting cast really shines. In general this episode is very well acted, directed with a good story.

No spoilers here. A little undercover detective works help crack this case.

For yours truly this is one of the top episodes in the series.

Highly recommended.

Corner Gas: World's Biggest Thing (2004) Season 1, Episode 6

A Gardening Tool Of Course....

[10/10 · 26 February 2022]

For your truly this was the standout episode of Season 1. (Don't get me wrong, as I really enjoyed Faceoff & Hook, Line & Sinker). This would be the episode I would take to a desert island if I could pick a single episode from Season 1.

A simple homonym created quite a bit of comedic chaos.

Highly recommended.

Laverne & Shirley: The Quiz Show (1978) Season 4, Episode 5

Comedic Gold

[10/10 · 26 February 2022]

I have to believe this episode would be in just about every Laverne & Shirley fans top 10 list.

No spoilers at all. ....but you're in for top notch physical comedy and hearty belly laughs.

Spectacular episode.

No disappointments here.

Hunter: The Black Dahlia (1988) Season 4, Episode 13

Interesting Take On A Mystery

[10/10 · 23 February 2022]

No spoilers here but this is one of my favorite episodes of the show. Remember this is a fictitious resolution.

Very well written, acted & directed. It makes it a memorable episode.

Very, very highly recommended if you're a fan of the show.

Three's Company: Downhill Chaser (1980) Season 5, Episode 4

An episode where you don't see the apartment.

[9/10 · 21 July 2021]

Almost everything takes place on the sets of the ski lodge. The opening is at the Reagle Beagle.

Jack says he's an expert skier to impress a girl named Inga. Of course, he can't ski at all.

Larry's fake cast provides a lot of laughs.

Furley attempting to avoid the rather plump masseuse was terrific.

Janet trying to teach Jack how to ski at the very last minute is a ton of fun. Watching Janet accidentally push Jack down "The Flying Dutchman" was priceless.

One of the top episodes from Season 5.
