Saturday early morning was the complete first season premiere of the new British drama, Dracula. This retelling of the classic story follows Dracula from his origins in Eastern Europe to his battles with Van Helsing’s descendent and beyond. It stars Claes Bang as Dracula, Clive Russell (Catherine the Great), Dolly Wells (Blunt Talk, Doll & Em), Joanna Scanlan (Requiem), Jonathan Aris (The Game), Mark Gatiss (The League of Gentlemen, Wolf Hall), Nathan Stewart-Jarrett (Misfits, Cassandra French’s Finishing School), Sacha Dhawan (Outsourced), & Youssef Kerkour (Criminal), as well as Catherine Schell, John Heffernan, Lujza Richter, & Morfydd Clark.
Tonight is also the series premiere of Say Yes to the Dress America on TLC at 8/7c. Say Yes to the Dress America, the most epic wedding series and event in TLC history, features one bride from every state, Washington D.C., and Puerto Rico. The engaging 10-part series will culminate in a two-hour group wedding extravaganza, with charismatic Say Yes host and bridal designer Randy Fenoli pulling double duty, officiating as each couple says “I do†in unison at New York City’s iconic Central Park.
Finally, tonight is the season premiere of Haunted Hospitals on the Travel Channel at 9/8c and the 90-minute season finale of Surviving R. Kelly on Lifetime at 8/7c.

I had a wonderful holiday season, but I am also incredibly happy that some new television is starting again tonight! What is even more exciting about tonight is that we are finally getting the Hawaii Five-0 and Magnum P.I. crossover I have been wanting since the beginning. It has always bothered me that they haven’t had the teams meet before, seeing as we have supporting characters such as Noelani and Duke who have appeared on both shows. Hopefully after this crossover, it will be more like the #OneChicago series of shows, where the different departments cross paths during each other’s shows. That would make this girl ecstatic.
On tonight’s Hawaii Five-0, “Ihea ‘oe i ka wa a ka ua e loku ana? (Where Were You When the Rain was Pouring?),” when a list of undercover CIA agents is stolen, Steve and Five-0 enlist the help of Magnum, Higgins, Rick, and TC to get it back and protect national security. Also, Higgins gives Tani some personal advice.
Then on Magnum P.I., “Desperate Measures,” Junior is kidnapped as leverage to retrieve the stolen list of undercover CIA agents, and most of Five-0 is rounded up by the CIA to prevent them from interfering. Tani and Quinn ask Magnum and Higgins for their help.
Can my two favorite island crime fighting teams secure the list of CIA agents and save Junior before it’s too late? Find out for sure tonight on CBS starting at 8/7c.
I’ll also be watching Blue Bloods.
With sports betting now legalized in the United States on a state-by-state basis, it is only a matter of time before it is legalized in all 50 states. Just look at the success of the New Jersey online gambling market and how much it has grown in only a little over a year.
With legalized sports betting being legitimate, it has also brought about more exposure in the mainstream media. The giant of Fox Sports now has its own sportsbook in FoxBet, and ESPN now has shows on its network that have to deal with sports betting.
On top of that, Yahoo recently announced a partnership with MGM to put betting lines on their search engine and then link up to the MGM sportsbook to allow users to make sportsbetting picks & wagers. It has been a snowball effect in the mainstream media in terms of sports betting exposure, and it will only increase as more states legalize sports betting.
