Bar Rescue (Fave TV, weeknights and weekends)

I watched two episodes on Friday night.  One took place at a champagne bar in Philadelphia.  The other was at a Detroit jazz club.  I’m never surprised to learn that most of these places ended up closing, even after Jon Taffer’s makeover.  Would you want to eat or drink at a place that was featured as being incredibly dirty and vermin-infested on television?

On Saturday, I watched an episode in which Jon Taffer helped out a surly sports bar owner.  Why are the owners of sports bars always so surly?  I then watched another episode featuring a bar that was home to a wild racoon.  After that episode, I then discovered that Fave TV was doing a Bar Rescue marathon and I ended up watching several episodes that followed.  As I watched, I was reminded that I would be both a terrible bartender and a terrible waitress.  It’s a good thing that I decided to spend my life watching movies instead.

Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders: Making The Team (Fave TV, weeknights)

After Erin and I finished watching one of the Perry Mason movies on Friday, we watched an episode of this reality show on Fave TV.  Everyone was very smiley.  I was just happy because it was filmed in Dallas so I could spend the whole show going, “Hey, I was right outside that building earlier today!”

The Danny Thomas Show (MeTV+, Weekend Afternoons)

I watched an episode of this show on Saturday, largely because I was trying out the new remote control for the TV in my home office.  Danny Thomas was about to go on tour in Europe so comedian Jack Carter agreed to cover Danny’s nightclub show in the states.  Danny got jealous when he saw how much the audience loved Jack.  It made me laugh.

Dirty Pair Flash (Night Flight Plus)

On Friday night, I watched an episode of this often baffling anime.  The episode was about the pair playing beach volleyball.  I’m not sure why.  There was a lot of yelling involved.

Murder, She Wrote (Start TV, Weekend Mornings)

I woke up on Saturday and watched two episodes of this old show.  The first episode featured Elliott Gould arresting the wrong person and Angela Lansbury setting him straight.  The second episode featured Angela Lansbury speaking straight to the camera and telling us about some other detective, who was played by Ken Howard and who solved a murder involving a former football player.

New Year’s Eve Celebrations (Everywhere, Wednesday Night)

At my BFF Evelyn’s New Year’s Eve party, we flipped through and past many different televised celebrations.  We stopped to watch Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper get drunk on CNN.  For the most part, though, we didn’t stick with anything for very long.  We had celebrating of our own to do!

Rose Bowl Parade (NBC, Thursday Morning)

I watched a bit of the Rose Bowl parade.  Watching a parade on television is never as much fun as watching it in person.

Saved By The Bell: The New Class (Prime)

Seriously, this show is perfect for my insomnia.  It lulls me to sleep.
