Warning spoilers ahead



My Review


If there any episode of this show that I liked the most it is this one very funny half hour episode or so the writing of episode is about how bad aunt bee pickles are what funny about this is everybody reaction once they eat it there faces lights up in a funny way that another reason why I like this episode also they think replace her pickles with store brought would help but when Andy founds out how much contest means to miss Johnson he must found out a way to get it be fair since Aunt bees entering store brought pickles in the fair yeah that would be cheating and mean funny part is Andy, Barney must eat a hell of a lot of pickles I am talking many jars of store brought pickles so funny music fits in well when they were eating too great acting as well this why this episode was indeed comedy gold to me very funny and in the end turn out ok everything was fine.



But at the end of episode aunt bee moved on from pickles and made some jar of Marmalade the episode ended with Andy telling Barney to get suitcase very funny way to ended the episode of this one that will for years be a classic one no doubt and you won’t found much like this in today world that for sure full episode is better then tv land version they edit it a lot out of episode which is a shame this is why I got the DVD season 2 of the series to get the full episode so if you want to see this comedy gold episode full must get dvd to see it that for sure and if you have not see it yet do so because it amazing episode of the Andy Griffith series.



I give this episode of the Andy Griffith show a rating out of 10/10 a 8/10 because it was great,

Synopsis



Musician Johnny Domino gains superpowers after being Stuck by lighting Guest stars pop singer Taylor Dane.



Spoilers ahead warning



My Review



Nightman is a show I never heard of it did come out in 90’s so see it was on Tubi the full 2 seasons so figure I check it out too see if I like it or not so do I think is it a little too chessy or not your about to find out.



Well it was a little chessy but not bad for plot as a man strike bye lighting gets powers to find out who is evil that interesting but I was wonder if that all give him for powers or not because if they didn’t would be can of boring if they didn’t add more to show but they did add suit later on it look good and that he could fly as well and fight bad guys as well it was pretty cool from what I see also first episode did have a familiar face Taylor Dayne in it think so was only in a few episodes but was pretty cool to see her in it while there wasn’t no big bad guy in first episode but bad guys after him for stealing the suit he grab with help of new friend I also like how like this story goes for first episode and ended in a good making you turn in for more next time Nightman was not best but good.



Also that intro is pretty good too great music too felt like a late night show maybe it was on late night again not sure but did like the intro song it catch on once you listen to it a few times also was acting bad or good well little bit chessy but not worst it was good Matt Mcolm did a great job playing the Nightman character in my view have to say this was a good first episode did like it at first I was worry this would not be good thankful I was wrong this time Tubi has series on it free site check out if you like you may like or not that is up too you.



I give Nightman (1997) a rating out of 10/10 a 7/10 for good.

Warning spoilers ahead



My Episode Review


This is my review of very episode that Featured Xena Warrior Princess this was start of this great hero but do note this show she was not good as she was Introduce as bad person who wants to kill Hercules for some reason my guess to gain power so what better way to try and weak him is use his best friend or try to turn him against this was well written and a great way to introduce us Xena she was badass and also hot as well and also she was a perfect match up for him as well and at end we got to see too friends in a small battle which was very cool but in the end was it a plan or not who knows but least I am happy it ended very well and don’t worry Xena will indeed be back later on in series .


A good episode of series love Lucy in this is was very good she was in early episodes of series but not as Xena as different characters but too me this was right character a badass Warrior for her that she went on to play for a long long time.



I give this episode of Hercules: The legendary journeys: The Warrior Princess a rating out of 10/10 a 8/10 for great. 


Saved By the bell : My boyfriend Back: S3 (1991) Episode Review

 Starring………. Mark Paul Gosselaar, Mario Lopez and Dustin Diamond




Director……….. Don Barnhart



Synopsis



Zack and Stacey’s relationship is going well until Stacey’s boyfriend from Boston, Craig, Surprises her at the beach club, leaving Zack devastated.




Spoilers ahead warning



My Review


In this episode things are started to heat up between Stacey and Zack Stacy’s ex boyfriend shows up and though and that what episode was about putting a test between Zack and Stacy’s love life most of episode it was interesting though how this was going to end because it is a battle for Stacy’s you can tell who she wants to date more and in the end we know who that was it was blonde dude was it funny few stuff between Jesse and Slater and Screech had a few funny moments but not much as story was around Stacy and Zack maybe breaking up this episode was ok but again could of add a little bit more comedy to make a great episode but will say it was a good episode.



Saved by the bell is only a half a hour teen series so you get what you sometimes writing is good or goofing but that what work back in the days there is a new reboot but have not see any new episodes will I maybe right now no thank you sorry to make this short but not too much but we say is the ending was good.



I give this episode of Saved by the Bell (1991) a rating out of 10/10 a 6/10 for good.

 Starring…….. Ralph Macchio, Willam Zabka and Jacob Bertrand



Director……….. Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg



Synopsis



Miyagi- Do, Eagle Fang and Cobra Kai are training for the All valley Karate Tournament.



Warning spoilers ahead



My Review


The return of Terry sliver might biggest return yet I say this guy put Daniel though hell on Karate kid III but at start Terry doesn’t want to come back so are going to bring him back just to say can of but trust me he will be back it was good see him have not see actor who played him in years he going to be something this season I know it. So last season we see Johnny and Daniel bring the teams together which was something but I was wonder if them two can get along with each in this season where they are trying still can of tough but they are slowing build up to have trust each other which I like because we know the history between them two so it will be interesting to see how this play out in my view.



Now episode ended with terry kicking bottle does that mean he coming back to be pain master terry I think so can’t wait to found and maybe we get Johnny vs terry in this season that would be a great match up have to say this is one of favorite show because it keep getting better and better each time I see it that for sure I did enjoy season 4 episode and can’t wait for more that for sure last season I watch all 10 episodes in 1 day I probably won’t do that this time what to take my time this round because it will be worth it hopefully Johnny and Daniel work out there issues because with terry coming back they will indeed have there hands full that is for sure.



I give cobra Kai season 4 episode 1 a rating of 8/10 for great.

 Starring…………. David Harbour, Finn Wolfhard and Mille Bobby Brown



Director……….. Andrew Stanton



Synopsis



Nancy and Jonathan swap conspiracy theories with a new ally as Eleven searches for someone from her past. Bob the Brain” tackles a difficult problem.



Warning spoilers ahead



My Review


Last time we see hopper find a door to the upside down world but do I think he should of not gone down there to me should of not because now look like he maybe stuck down there but Will see him so now they know he down there see Will is the key because he knows this thing every move and it can work to maybe beat this thing they are doing good on build that up in this season later on we see Nancy and Jonathan on the road looking for answers about Eleven or this monster they meet this Hippie guy who does tell them a lot of things including that they should go out with each other because they are made for each other was a little drama there but not interesting guy that was.




Later on we see eleven going to a house and meeting her mom for the first time this house has a lot secrets and we find out the truth on her mom story they pretty much took eleven away from her and show evil her father was at the end we see Joyce, Bob and hopper get out of upside down side but soon as they set monster on fire we also see Will be effect as well very scary way to end the episode but again great leading us to next episode.



Well a very good episode we see more on eleven story about her mom and meeting her mom we learn some this again is good storytelling telling and written as well ending of episode give me chills and makes me worried what going on with Will as well this indeed a great horror series or Scfi or whatever it just keep getting better and better each time I see it feels like a real story almost Characters work well for acting fits in well so see you next week for next episode review of Stranger things.


I give this chapter of stranger things (2017) a rating out of 10/10 a 8/10 for great.


The Flash : Crazy for You : S1: episode 12 (2015) Review

 Starring…….. Grant Gustin, Candice Patton and Danielle Panabaker




Director……… Rob Hardy



Synopsis


Caitlin brings Barry out to a karaoke bar, hoping they both meet someone new, Cisco thinks about Hartley’s dangerous proposition, Henry’s Snooping gets gets him into trouble.




Spoilers ahead warning



My Review


This episode starts off in a crazy way as The flash saves two people nice save and after that we see Cisco talk to Caitlin about possible of more info on Ronnie and she says I am moving on but too me I agree with Cisco doesn’t sound like she is over him too me and we found out the next robber team flash is looking for a woman who can jump from place to place that pretty cool might be tough one for team flash to catch and also later on Cisco agree to let Hartley out but if him Or not and then he does try to get away but Cisco was ready good thing for now but now Hartley wants him to take off the meta Cuffs to find out more truth on Ronnie then we see the newest Couple trying to rob a bank we had a good few moments trying to catch her as the flash but had a tough time to catch her and indeed she is a tough one later on most funny moment goes to Caitlin and Barry at bar when we see a drunken Caitlin and Barry sing was funny but do say grant has a good singing voice guess them years on glee did pay off.



We did see someone stab Barry Dad but the flash got a little revenge on bad guy who did it though.



So how did Barry catch this women who can jump from one place to another again it was tough battle and I was wonder how heck do you beat this women it like playing a game of hide and seek sort of so the only way to win this game is take away the light which is a good move because it did help as well good fight there sure was a back and forward moment when you watch it because you wonder how was this going to end I was that for sure.



And at the end we get a hint of Grodd who will come in to play later sure look scary so was this good episode of the flash very good we find out more info on Ronnie and how he is firestorm now that a pretty good build up love how Ronnie story still going on also we see Barry started dating which made Iris a little jealous maybe hmm well she ditch him early so now he did the same with her away from drama that ending was a good cliffhanger on what yet to come Grodd going to give the flash a run for his money later on that for sure not a bad episode of the flash did like it so I be back next week on Tuesday before Christmas to review the next flash episode so see you then and have a good rest of your week.



I give episode 12 of the flash S1 (2015) out of 10/10 a rating of 8/10 for great.

 Starring………. Winona Ryder, David Harbour and Finn Wolfhard



Director……. Shawn Levy



Synopsis


An ailling Will opens up to Joyce—with disturbing results. While Hopper digs for the truth, Eleven unearths a surprising discovery.



Warning spoilers ahead



My Review


After last episode where Will opens up and tells his mom what going on and him having flashes of this evil monster you wonder how this will play out me also because it will be something to watch for in this one that for sure I also like the title of episode Will the Wise good choice as well episode starts off right where Will was being taken over this ugly upside down monster it was indeed a chilling way to open and scary as well that one way to open up a episode as well then after that we get hopper finding out eleven has been out of house and then we get a huge fight with hopper saying no tv and eleven just went crazy attacked hopper and throwing stuff around breaking windows it was can of freaky but probably the best 10-15 mins of opening I see yet in this series in my view for story after that odd things started to happen with Will after see what upside down monster did to him not Surprised all slowing again happens though but again story of this series has been spot on after season 2 slow start and also kids are looking for dart to maybe help Will out the whole time Dustin has him but has not told gang yet and will he is the question they can of keep that going you can tell he wants too but look lost as well also eleven finds out something Shocking about her mother which is a huge moment for her can’t keep secrets from her for long another scary moment close to the end was when Dustin came home and see dart has grow huge and is eating the cat was very creepy time for Dart to go in my view after that as well what happens next well they make wait as well the episode ends with hopper find out something huge that was indeed one heck of way to end a great episode of Stranger Things is what I think.



A great Intense episode of Stranger things probably top episode of season 2 is from what I see from great acting and story as well Fantastic episode can’t wait to review episode for next week as well.



I give this episode of stranger things out of 10/10 a 8/10 for great.

 Starring……….. Grant Gustin, Candice Patton and Danielle Panabaker



Director……….. John Showwalter



Synopsis



While Iris faces trouble in her new job, a former protege of Dr Wells uses sound waves to attack the Flash.




Warning spoilers ahead



My Review


After a week off ready to move on with episode 11 review of the Flash and this one will be something to review on with sounds can effect Barry.



Not a bad episode with the whole guy Weakened people with sound name is Harley we do get some flashbacks where him and Cisco do not like each other after meeting him also he could have huge info on wells secret which we already know so was so did I think he was going to let his secret out right away well maybe but not yet think they wanted to build it up more on where the truth comes out and give team flash a huge Shock and indeed was as for this episode it had a lot of chill moments this guy was very tough to beat the sounds can hurt people and possible kill as well pretty much love the battle at the end it was good another close one though almost thought he had lucky wells save him for now man he is bad guy but doing good playing with them unit they find out truth pretty much a good fight at the end they do a good job on that as ending with them getting Hartley but he told Cisco he knows where Ronnie is making you Wonder if Cisco will take the risk to free to find out later on not that interesting to me as it will be tough for Cisco to come up with a Answer.



So was a good episode yes as it had less drama and still stayed on story as well with Joe Investigated wells they did a good job on that with another great episode as in closing give this one a thumb up as it had a great moments which the flash fans will like and enjoy tonight flash episode from season 8 which is going on right now.



I give The flash episode 11 of 2015 series out of 10/10 a 8/10 for great,
