CNBC's Jim Cramer quickly overviewed a handful of names during Thursday's edition of "Mad Money."

Here is what Cramer had to say:

1. FirstEnergy Corp. FE is a "low quality" stock and investors should alternatively consider Dominion Resources, Inc. D and "maybe" Consolidated Edison, Inc. ED.

2. JetBlue Airways Corporation JBLU is clearly not on the top of Cramer's list among airline stocks to buy. "Nope, nope, nope, nope and nope," he said while suggesting Delta Air Lines, Inc. DAL is a better investment and his "favorite" airline stock to own is Southwest Airlines Co LUV.

3. MeetMe Inc MEET's stock has gained more than 60 percent since the start of the year, but Cramer acknowledged this is a company that he does not know — but will look into.

4. Altria Group Inc MO is a "best-of-breed" with a decent yield. However, Crammer doesn't recommend owning tobacco stocks, "because I don't like the breed."

5. Ellie Mae Inc ELLI is a "fantastic story" and a stock Cramer is considering to buy for his charitable trust.

6. Encana Corp (USA) ECA is "making a comeback," but as a "high quality" guy, Cramer prefers Occidental Petroleum Corporation OXY.

7. Magna International Inc. (USA) MGA isn't generating "a lot of good growth" and Cramer demands growth when buying a stock.

8. J C Penney Company Inc JCP is a "terrific buy" under $10 a share and its CEO Marvin Ellison is "doing a great job."
