If We Controlled Your Remote… 1/3/20

Posted on January 3, 2020 by

Have you ever been at a loss as to what to watch? Too many shows to pick from? We’re here to give you our opinions on what we feel is worth watching. Check it out and then let us know in the comments below what you’re choosing for tonight!

Megan’s Choice

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.

Sports Betting Exposure and Shows on Mainstream Television

Posted on January 2, 2020 by

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.

Thursday on TV – 1/2/20

Click here for series premiere information

Tonight is the series premiere of Deputy on FOX at 9/8c. From director/executive producer David Ayer (Training Day, End of Watch, Suicide Squad), Deputy brings the spirit of a classic Western and a gritty authenticity to the modern cop drama. When the Los Angeles County’s Sheriff dies, an arcane rule forged back in the Wild West thrusts the most unlikely man into the job: a fifth-generation lawman (Stephen Dorff, True Detective), more comfortable taking down bad guys than navigating a sea of politics, who won’t rest until justice is served. Deputy also stars Yara Martinez (Jane the Virgin, The Tick), Brian Van Holt (Cougar Town), Danielle Moné Truitt (Snowfall), Bex Taylor-Klaus (13 Reasons Why), Shane Paul McGhie (Unbelievable), and Mark Moses (Desperate Housewives).
 
Finally, tonight is the series premiere of My Feet Are Killing Me on TLC at 10/9c. Dr. Ebonie Vincent and Dr. Brad Schaeffer have never met a foot too funky to fix. The show follows these expert podiatrists and surgeons as they bring their warm bedside manners to the task of restoring their patients’ confidence and getting them back on their feet. Throughout the series, viewers will immerse themselves with both doctors — one West Coast and one East Coast — as they juggle all sorts of eye-popping cases, from wart clusters and funky fungus, to toe amputations and foot reconstructions.
