Billy’s Reviews

I have been a fan of Chips for years and here we are with the first season finally released for us to see in all it’s 70′s glory. As bad as you may expect the quality of a 70′s TV show to be I have found Chips to be actually very easy to watch although [...]

Catch & Release by Sony Pictures I had been looking forward to seeing Catch and Release since I originally saw the trailers months ago. The movie looked like a romantic comedy but in the end I was a little disappointed by the movie. But then again maybe that was just me. Catch and Release is [...]

I just saw that Northern Exposure Season 5 is out on DVD. I loved this show when it came out and am looking forward to seeing this season again. If I remember correctly the show started going downhill after the fifth season but this season is still really great. I also found an outline of [...]

What’s New Scooby-Doo – Monstrous Tails is just out. Scooby Doo is one of our families favorite shows. My daughter has been a fan of Scooby Doo ever since she was two and now she has made my son a fan as well. The eisodes on this DVD are episodes originally shown on TV and [...]

To avoid conflict-of-interest [...]

Once the fourth season of The West Wing gets past its semi-serious two-part opener, in which White House staffers Toby Ziegler (Richard Schiff), Josh Lyman (Bradley Whitford), and Donna Moss (Janel Moloney) get lost somewhere in Indiana while campaigning for the re-election of President Jed Bartlet (Martin Sheen), the series hunkers down to more vital [...]

Season three of The West Wing breaks the series’ established continuity with the opening episode, “Isaac and Ishmael,” hastily assembled to address the terrible events of September 11, 2001. Thereafter, the principal storyline picks up where season two left off, with President Jed Bartlet (Martin Sheen) facing possible impeachment because of his failure to make [...]

Season one of The West Wing ended with a violent cliffhanger, as President Bartlet (Martin Sheen) and his staff were apparently targeted for assassination. As season two begins, it is revealed that the intended bull’s-eye of the attack was actually Bartlet’s young African-American aide, Charlie Young (Dule Hill), who had raised the hackles of white [...]
