Saturday on TV – 12/3/16

Saturday is the series premiere of Homicide for the Holidays on Oxygen at 8/7c, followed by a 2nd new episode at 9/8c. The special series delves into the terrifying twists, turns and tell-alls that reveal how tumultuous the holiday season can be. For most, the winter holidays mean bringing family and friends together to eat, drink, and create joyous memories to last a lifetime; but, for others, it’s a time where emotions run high, anger and animosity set in and can spark an explosive combination of simmering resentments and volatile secrets. Sometimes, this emotional powder keg makes for some truly horrific holiday crime stories that viewers are sure to never forget. The series will feature firsthand accounts from families of four cases which include: sibling jealously that turned to bitterness and unhappiness then crystallized in killing; a misfit who saw her parents as the only obstacle to her happiness and murder as the solution; the age-old story, teenage girl meets boy, parents don’t like boy, but with a new horrific ending: murder; and a Psycho Santa who took his piece of the American Dream and tossed it in the flames…literally.

Tonight is also a new episode of The Killing Season on A&E at 9/8c, followed by the season finale at 10/9c.

Finally, tonight is a new episode of Saturday Night Live on NBC at 11:29/10:29c, with host Emma Stone and musical guest Shawn Mendes.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 12/2/16

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!

Kyle’s Choice

pacificheatsmallToday, Netflix drops the 13-episode first season of Pacific Heat, an animated action/comedy that follows a squad of dimwitted police offers as they go on various undercover missions in the glitzy Gold Coast of Australia. Heading up the team is Special Agent Todd Sommerville, who is constantly throwing out the Horatio Caine-style puns and is more concerned about messing up his hair than wearing the proper protective gear. With her blonde hair and willingness to strip down for the mission, Special Agent Maddie Riggs may not appear to be the smartest of the group, but she is constantly surprising the rest of her team with moments of sheer brilliance. The rest of the team includes simpleminded Special Agent Veronica “V.J.” Delane and meathead Agent Zac Valentic, who is also a former military colleague of Todd’s. And rounding out the main characters are the Chief, who is constantly sending the squad out on unsanctioned missions but then gets frustrated by their rogue practices. At the same time, he also has to deal with his empty-headed assistant and the team’s savvy young female tech.

I got a chance to watch the first and third episodes of the season, and I really enjoyed what I saw. This show is a lot of fun! The animation style and premise will remind many viewers of FX’s Archer. This series has a very similar look and feel, following a team of not-so-bright agents as they go out on dangerous missions and also deal with coworkers and office politics. The series also has a similar mix of irreverent humor, wordplay, sarcasm, and sight gags, and well as these really fun flashbacks that reveal crazy backstories and incidents in the characters’ pasts. The show even breaks the fourth wall at one point in the third episode. I think Archer fans will really enjoy this series, and it’s also well worth checking out for anyone looking for a fun cop show spoof.

Stream all 13 episodes now on Netflix!

I’ll also be watching/recording Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Z Nation, and Van Helsing.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 12/1/16

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!

Jenny’s Choice

topchef2016smallIt took me a good handful of seasons to start watching Top Chef, but I haven’t missed any episode since, which means I’m excited that it’s back tonight for the start of season 14! This season starts off in Charleston, South Carolina, where eight new chefs join eight returning chefs to compete for the grand prize of $125,000 and the title of Top Chef. This season’s new chefs come from all over, from Portland, Oregon, to Florida and New York City. The returning chefs feature some big names, especially if you’re a fan of this show: Sam Talbot from Season 2; Casey Thompson from Season 3 & Season 8: All-Stars; Amanda Baumgarten from Season 7; Brooke Williamson, Sheldon Simeon, & John Tesar from Season 10; Shirley Chung from Season 11; & Katsuji Tanabe from Season 12.

My personal pick? I love Brooke, Shirley, & Katsuji, so…we’ll see how the newbies stack up against them! Also, I’m happy that Graham Elliot (former judge on MasterChef and competitor on Top Chef Masters) is joining Tom, Gail, and Padma, as well as all the great guest judges, Richard Blais, Michael Voltaggio, Hugh Acheson, & more.

On tonight’s episode, “Something Old, Something New,” the new chefs enter the kitchen first to cook as many dishes as possible in one hour using a whole chicken; the veterans square off to re-imagine shrimp and grits.

To see which chef gets taken out first, tune in to Bravo at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing The Big Bang Theory, Rosewood, The Great Indoors, Chopped, The Great American Baking Show, & Beat Bobby Flay.
