This week Catweazle’s got a reason to act weird – he sees two Normans in armor fighting it out with swords. He joyfully thinks he’s back home only to run through the woods and see that Castle Saburac is still there. Carrot clears it up for him – it was only Sam and some friends in costume for...

The title had little relevance to the story (just a location name), but at least the host’s monologue made some valid points this week, though I don’t remember his precise wording. This story is actually somewhat more real than some of the others. For one thing, I don’t find it that hard to...

Even with Catweazle temporarily gone, he still has a bad influence on Carrot. Dad and Sam have to do some heavy lifting work all alone because Carrot is off at the Castle mourning the disappearance of his friend. But, to his credit, Edward returns home and actually helps Sam fix that new...

As far as getting me interested in the episode, they had me at “Guest Star Roma Maffia.” I’ve long enjoyed her work. She has an exotic look to her and often plays intriguing characters. She did a documentary called “That Gal…Who Was in that Thing” where she and 4 other actresses talked about...

We start with Catweazle and Carrot rummaging for junk in an old house, apparently owned by his Dad. Carrot warns the wizard that his Dad is bringing someone over, but he ends up fumbling around until Mr. Bennet arrives with a lady photographer Eleanor Derringer and her lady aide Maud. In trying...

Excellent point. I hadn’t thought of that. By coincidence, I’ve just started watching a summer series called REVERIE which is about a futuristic VR program which people have entered and now some have gone into a coma from refusing to come out. They hire someone to go in after them using a VR...

Well, I listened to the opening this week, since I thought it might include some background on the story like it did last week, but the guy mentioned, “He’ll find out nothing is what it seems to be,” which was the crux of the twist in the story. Still, I can’t say that it spoiled it as there...

Actually, the line is even older than BLAKE'S 7. I remember doing a spoof of current TV show listings years ago and using the following for THE ROOKIES (1972-1976): "Ryker congratulates Owens on shooting a gun out of a robber's hand - until Owens admits he was aiming for his head." I had heard...

This one picks up right where last week’s episode left off, with Blake doing a ship’s log entry to remind us what happened. They are now headed toward Aristo to try to deliver the energy cells to Ensor Sr., find out what Orac is, and obtain some anti-radiation medicine as Avon and the others...

This episode was just sort of a bust all around for me. There were opportunities for a fun show, but nothing materialized. We start with a shot of two people fishing in a small boat. I thought it was Carrot and his dad for a few moments, but it was Carrot and Catweazle. Cat was catching...

The most noticeable thing about this episode was that it wasn’t really a science fiction or even futuristic story. At its core, it was the tale of a relationship between two women who start as strangers and end up friends, and how it changes their lives. With minor tweaks, it could have been...

We start with Carrot and Sam riding the tractor on a narrow road very slowly. A lady in a car, Susan Bonnington, yells out to them that she’s in a hurry. “Well, we’re not,” chuckles Sam. A short distance later, they pull off the road and Mrs. Bonnington manages to get moving again. What is...

Once again, we have two storylines this week, plus some extraneous material setting us up for the season finale next week. The first storyline reminds me of an old joke I heard as a kid. “Once there was a man who took a ride in an airplane. Unfortunately, he fell out of the plane. Fortunately...

Well, this was hands down the worst episode of the series - so vulgar I almost threw up. They never even explained what the guys were doing out there riding around in canoes in disguise. But when that sicko shouted, "Squeal like a pig!" I just had to turn it off completely. I... Oh, wait, um...

I was way behind with everything on Friday morning, but I decided to use it to check out “Our Lady of the Machine.” Boy, was I glad I did. Definitely an improvement over last week’s episode, more focused, more logical, and with a delightfully multi-layered storyline. I’m not a fan of stories...

I had mixed feelings about this episode, although one set of feelings finally won over the other. As it began, Carrot now had a pet turtle named Beelzebub which he called his familiar. Obviously, he’s being influenced by Catweazle already. Every proud father would like to brag that his son has...

The opening of the show was reminiscent of an old HBO drama in the 80’s called THE HITCHHIKER. (It’s listed as DEADLY NIGHTMARES in IMDB, even though it was never called that and actually featured a guy seen hitch-hiking.) The narrator figure, the hitch-hiker, would appear at the beginning of...

Due to time limitations, I had to watch the first 30 minutes of this episode one say and the remaining 22 minutes the next day. Oddly enough this worked out well, as this episode features two distinct stories. We jump start right into the first story – Blake and Cally are rescuing Sarkoff, the...

Your link worked and I watched the show this morning. I'll try to have a review ASAP.
