Can explain why philosophically this doesn't work? Just as a learning example, I wanted to see the properties of the get-service cmdlet, without the events or methods.
PS C:\Users\Neal> get-service | get-member | {$_.name -eq "Property"}
Result:
At line:1 char:29
+ get-service | get-member | {$_.name -eq "Property"}
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

{$_.name -eq "Property"} is just a scriptblock. If you want to use Where-Object to filter the results of get-member, you need to type Where-Object:
PS C:\Users\Neal> get-service | get-member | Where-Object {$_.name -eq "Property"}
or you can use where, which is an alias for Where-Object:
PS C:\Users\Neal> get-service | get-member | where {$_.name -eq "Property"}
There is even a special character ? which refers to Where-Object:
PS C:\Users\Neal> get-service | get-member | ? {$_.name -eq "Property"}
All three examples given above do the same thing. Choosing between them is simply a matter of style.
