Lisa Marie’s Week In Television: 1/28/24 — 2/3/24


This previous week …. bleh.  Let’s just take a look at what I watched.

The Bachelor (Monday Night, ABC)

Eh.  I’m pretty lukewarm on the new bachelor.  He seems like a nice guy but he’s kind of boring.

Baywatch Nights (YouTube)

I reviewed Baywatch Nights here!

Check it Out (Tubi)

I’m running behind but I’ll have a review of this week’s episode up sometime on Sunday.

CHiPs (Freevee)

I reviewed CHiPs here!

Degrassi Junior High (YouTube)

I reviewed Degrassi here!

Fantasy Island (YouTube)

Football (Sunday)

Did I watched two football games on Sunday?  According to my notes, Jeff and I watched two playoff games but I’ll be darned if I can tell you a dang thing about either one of them.

Friday the 13th (YouTube)

I’m running behind but I’ll have a review of this week’s episode up sometime on Sunday.

Happy Hour (YouTube)

I watched an episode of this old 90s game show on Saturday morning.  Dweezil and Ahmet Zappa asked bizarre questions to celebrities.  Dweezil was cool but Ahmet was like the hyperactive cousin that no one wants to deal with at the family reunion.  Amongst the celebrities were Chuck Woolery, Alexandra Paul, Patton Oswalt, and that “Let’s Get Ready To Rumble” ring announcer dude.

Highway to Heaven (Freevee)

I wrote about this week’s episode here!

Judge Dad (YouTube)

On Sunday, I watched an episode in which Judge Dad dealt with a woman who claimed her Canadian husband only married her for a visa.  Judge Dad interrupted the show so he could do a commercial for some sort of special food delivery system.  I followed this episode with an episode in which Judge Dad admonished a man for slashing his ex’s tires.  Both episodes featured the same disclosure.  Judge Dad is not a lawyer and the cases are fiction.

Law & Order (Thursday Night, NBC)

I got caught up with the first three episodes of the new season this week.  I am really impressed by Reid Scott, who is this season’s newest cast member.  He and Mehcad Brooks are working well together and Brooks, for his part, is no longer quite as stiff as he was the previous season.  Sam Waterston, bless him, is obviously not in the best of health and I really hope he retires after this season and enjoys life.  So far, Nolan Price appears to have mellowed out, especially when compared to previous two seasons.  But what has happened to Maroun?  She was finally showing some sparks of having a personality at the end of the previous season but now, she’s back to being a humorless scold who wears too much lipstick.

The first three episodes of the new season were all fairly good.  I cringe whenever the blue collar cops on Law & Order start talking like MSNC pundits (and I still laugh whenever I remember last season’s “Did you all see Morning Joe?”).  Law & Order will probably never be the beacon of quality that it once was but this season is off to a good start.

The Love Boat (Paramount Plus)

I reviewed the third season finale here!

Miami Vice (Tubi)

I reviewed Miami Vice here!

Monsters (Tubi)

I wrote about Monsters here!

Sally Jessy Raphael (YouTube)

Sally talked to women who felt their marriage were in trouble.  All of the husband were total deadbeats.  One guy came out on stage wearing his uniform from McDonald’s.  I’m sure the bosses were really happy about that.

So Here’s What Happened (YouTube)

I wrote about this obscure pilot here!

Square Pegs (YouTube)

This was a sitcom from the early 80s, about two girls trying to be popular in high school.  I watched the pilot on Friday night and I smiled a few times.  Trying to fit in is a timeless subject.  One of the girls was played by Sarah Jessica Parker, who I love because, like me, she’s a part of the Big Nose Crew.  BNC FOREVER!

T and T (Tubi)

I wrote about T and T here!

Welcome Back, Kotter (Tubi)

One response to “Lisa Marie’s Week In Television: 1/28/24 — 2/3/24

  1. The KC Chiefs were “given the game” over the MUCH-superior Boston Ravens. Quelle surprise here. The SF 49ers managed to scramble back from a poor showing in the 1st half to finally defeat the Detroit Lions – which made SF the “sacrificial lamb” against the Chiefs in the super bowl “game”. I hope I’m wrong but I believe the fix is in for KC. But I hope I’m wrong…
