If <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/show/glee/10492782/main">'Glee'</a> has you yearning for more song-and-dance routines on TV, hold onto your (top) hats! From April 29 to May 5, <a href="http://livefeed.hollywoodreporter.com/2010/04/fox-doing-musicthemed-week.html">Fox is turning several of its shows into musicals</a>, including <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/show/bones/208653/main">'Bones,'</a> <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/show/house/113097/main">'House,'</a> <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/show/the-simpsons/62653/main">'The Simpsons,'</a> even <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/show/fringe/10235903/main">'Fringe.'</a> On May 2, <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/show/family-guy/99723/main">'Family Guy'</a> will celebrate its 150th episode with an extended episode featuring new and familiar musical numbers. Suffice to say the shows should be a blast, for both us and the actors. <br />
<br />
Of course, TV aficionados know this is nothing new. Shows like <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/show/ally-mcbeal/238646/main">'Ally McBeal,'</a> <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/show/eli-stone/1342102/main">'Eli Stone,'</a> and <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/show/spongebob-squarepants/55365/main">'SpongeBob SquarePants'</a> have featured musical numbers regularly, and I'd be remiss if I didn't mention <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/show/viva-laughlin/1342114/main">'Viva Laughlin'</a> and <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/show/cop-rock/761694/main">'Cop Rock'</a> (even though the latter was declared by TV Guide to be one of the worst shows ever, ouch!). In fact, we can trace the trend back to classic episodes like Bugs Bunny's 'The Rabbit of Seville' and 'What's Opera, Doc?' <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2010/04/26/top-10-musical-episodes-buffy-scrubs-the-simpsons-and-m/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

(<em>S06E18</em>) We finally find out more about Owen's past this week on <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/show/greys-anatomy/426427/main">'Grey's Anatomy.'</a> The big story revolved around Owen and his time in the army. He's forever filled with guilt that he could have saved his friend's life if the two just held on for an extra few minutes. The biggest problem is that Owen can't put in his head the fact that his squad leader accepted that he was going to die and was at peace. Owen was afraid and still is today, causing him to have trouble sleeping at night. If he could open up to Christina or his therapist, then he might be able to be at peace with the situation.<br />
<br />
I wish the show had a bit more of a budget for set design because I didn't believe one minute of the scene that was supposed to be the desert. The explosion was really cheesy looking, and I couldn't believe that Owen was the lone survivor. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2010/03/26/greys-anatomy-suicide-is-painless-recap/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

<br />
It's easy to forget how good a show<em> Spenser: For Hire</em> was. It was on for only three seasons over 20 years ago, it's not on DVD, and I don't think that it's being shown on television right now. But oh, this show was so good. <br />
<br />
Robert Urich was the perfect Spenser and Avery Brooks was the perfect Hawk (years later, reading the books, I could only see Urich and Brooks as the characters). And on-location filming in Boston truly added a nice, realistic touch to the show (unlike the later movies, which were filmed in Toronto or some similar place). This show had smart writing, too, and the first person narration? Robert Parker was wrong when he said it was bad. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2010/01/14/spenser-for-hire-the-choice-standout-episodes/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

The three were evenly matched with a solid concept, good models, and similar makeup consultations. I've been disappointed with the way this season turned out after its long hiatus, and I'm hoping that next season's return to New York will be better.<br />
<br />
In the end, I got the reunion show I was wondering about, in the form of <span style="font-style: italic;">Models of the Runway</span>. It was the weirdest use of <span style="font-style: italic;">Project Runway's </span>footage because the models didn't have any involvement in many of the videos. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2009/11/20/review-project-runway-finale-part-2-season-finale-recap/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

And because elite Army ninjas have not sneaked into his studio and whisked him away to an interrogation room for breaking the military code of silence, it's been confirmed by the network. <br /><br /><a href="http://www.comedycentral.com/press/press_releases/2009/060509_colbert_iraq_usotour.jhtml">Stephen Colbert</a> is taking his <em>Colbert Report</em> to Baghdad for the troops next week. The network claims this is the first time the USO has brought a television show into a combat area for a week of shows, if you don't count, say, the news. <br /><br />Colbert has landed in Baghdad and underwent some basic military training to prepare for his visit to the region at Camp Victory, the former home of Saddam Hussein's Al-Faw Palace. That alone should provide hours of hilarious material for the show. But there's more going on than just producing something to keep you entertained during your post-work Kraft dinner. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2009/06/06/comedy-central-reveals-they-are-sending-stephen-colbert-to-baghd/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

It stars someone who would later go on to one of the great sitcoms, Elizabeth Montgomery, as well as Peter Mark Richman (who has <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0725052/">been in everything</a>) and <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0581282/">Gary Merrill</a>, who is the man with the problem in question. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2009/05/26/alfred-hitchcock-presents-man-with-a-problem/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

I spent the entire episode with my mouth hanging wide open, just sputtering, "what?" over and over again. After the episode ended, my boyfriend and I spent a good half an hour arguing about what <em>really</em> happened. Was House's theory correct, or was it just wishful thinking?<br /><br />I thought the episode made it pretty clear, but there was definitely an element of ambiguity when it ended. Today, <em>House</em> executive producers <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/tag/DavidShore/">David Shore</a>, <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/tag/KatieJacobs/">Katie Jacobs</a> and, uh, a certain actor from <em>House</em>, held a conference call to answer some of our burning questions, like, you know, "what the hell?" <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2009/04/07/house-producers-and-a-certain-star-talk-to-reporters-about-las/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

The stories would lead viewers one way and just when they thought they had the ending figured out, it took them down an emotional corkscrew that could melt their brains. It was and still is digital acid, minus the waking up in a dumpster with a head of hair that smells like raw chicken.<br /><br />But picture if you will, an even bigger twist lying inside this twisted wasteland of shock and discovery. A twist that smashes the fourth wall of television with the brute force of a charging rhino strapped to the front of a nuclear warhead and reveals the true identity of the man who pulls all the strings....in <span style="font-style: italic;">The Twilight Zone</span>. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2009/03/21/rod-serling-did-not-control-the-twilight-zone-video/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

<p>(<em>S05E11</em>) When I heard that we were going to be doing an <em><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/category/the-x-files/">X-Files</a></em> week for Retro Squad the first thing that came to mind was "Killswitch." It has long been my favorite episode of the series. Aside from being a great story, it also serves as a marker for where my interest in the series changed. </p>
<p>By the time they made it to "Killswitch,"<em> X-Files</em> had started to lose me with the mythology episodes. In the beginning it was almost annoying when there would be a standalone episode. I was so engrossed in the bigger picture story that it was like being forced to take a week off from that which I was really interested in. By season five, though, that interest had waned. Not that the show had gotten bad, just that it was pretty clear that those big answers weren't coming any time soon, so I started looking forward to these episodes more and more. And for me, "Killswitch" is the pinnacle of <em>The X-Files</em> in that form.</p> <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2008/07/21/the-x-files-killswitch/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

When a girl does the ritual, it's called a bat mitzvah. I mention all this because in TV, the bar/bat mitzvah has been the catalyst for some wonderful episodes, mostly on sitcoms. <br /><br /><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/category/the-simpsons/"><em>The Simpsons</em></a> celebrated Krusty the Klown's bar mitzvah in the episode "Today I Am A Klown," which was a variation on one of the all-time great sitcom bar mitzvahs of all time: the episode "Buddy Sorrell, Man and Boy," on <em>The Dick Van Dyke Show. Square Pegs</em> shared "Muffy's Bat Mitzvah" with viewers, and this past season, <a href="http://www.aoltv.com/category/curb-your-enthusiasm/"><em>Curb Your Enthusiasm's</em></a> Larry David used his friend Jeff Greene's daughter Sammi's bat mitzvah to announce that he never put a gerbil up his butt. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2008/07/10/frasier-star-mitzvah-video/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

    <li>Niles's cold open is a masterpiece in physical comedy, something we don't often see in <em>Frasier</em> episodes</li>
    <li>The performances are top-notch: sensitive, masterful, spot-on</li>
    <li>This episode is an example of perfect timing being a key to a sitcom's success</li>
    <li>It is filmed in three acts, each allowing the characters featured to play up to their strengths perfectly.</li>

<p>(<em>S04E05</em>) <em>Originally aired on July 18th, 2004</em> -- Arguably the best episode in <em>Six Feet Under</em>'s five season run (ignoring the stellar finale of course), "That's My Dog" is a seminal installment for Michael C. Hall's David Fisher. A culmination of David's fears, inadequacies, and worries all collide at the same time as he faces death at the hands of a sadistic crack addict named Jake who takes him on a joy ride to get high. The events change David for good as he develops crippling attacks of paranoia that stay with him until he tackles his demons near the end of season five. You can't have a discussion about <em>Six Feet Under</em> without bringing up this episode.</p> <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2008/07/02/six-feet-under-thats-my-dog-video/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

Keith's paintball revenge was his finest moment on the show as far as I'm concerned. The Fishers and Diazes played against type and became people of action, if only for a short while. David and Keith settled their differences on the battlefield, Ruth made several uncomfortable moves on Arthur, and Lisa sized up her competition.

So while I almost got to experience the <em>Buffy</em> musical experience with "Once More With Feeling," or the fifth season episode "The Body," it was instead the silent episode "Hush" that came out on top. Now, understand that this is by no means an intention to say that the entire series can be fully appreciated by one episode. In fact, I have every intention of watching the whole thing. Maybe I'll even give you guys season-by-season updates as I go along.<br /><br />What I did learn from this is even several years after it's end, <em>Buffy</em> and <em><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/category/Angel/">Angel</a></em> fans are as passionate today as they are about their favorite shows when they were on the air. And it makes me even more depressed at the poor treatment Whedon's other television masterpiece <em><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/category/Firefly/">Firefly</a></em> got at the hands of FOX. Maybe if it had been on UPN or The WB, it would have had a chance to develop as Whedon envisioned. But to the matter at hand. How does someone who's never seen a single episode of <em>Buffy</em> or <em>Angel</em> take an experience like "Hush?" <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2008/06/28/buffy-the-vampire-slayer-hush/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

The episode begins with Superman and Samurai playing chess, although it sounds like they are fighting, with such lines as, "Oh good move, that really hurts." We get a chuckle when we see that they are merely playing chess. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2008/06/19/standout-episodes-the-super-friends-reflections-in-crime-v/">Continue Reading</a>]]>

<p>(<em>S02E13</em>) <em>Originally aired March 13th, 2005 </em>-- There are way too many great episodes of <em>Arrested Development</em>. I can't think of any other sitcom that has as much replay value as this show does. Maybe <em>Seinfeld</em>, but c'mon - Jerry, Kramer, George, and Elaine had a lot of stinkers. I don't think the Bluths ever disappointed. When we nominated <em>Arrested Development</em> to get the "Retro Squad" treatment, "Motherboy XXX" immediately popped into my head. It's one of my favorites because it blends so many different stories together and it includes what I think is quite possibly the funniest, and most important, inside joke ever featured on the show.</p> <br/><br/><a href="http://www.aoltv.com/2008/06/11/arrested-development-motherboy-xxx-video/">Continue Reading</a>]]>
