santasinthebarnsmallI was going to pick the season premiere of Top Chef for tonight because I love that show so much, but instead, my pick is the series premiere of another reality competition show, Santas in the Barn on TruTV, the search for the nation’s best Santa. Ten Santas from across the country come to live at the ultimate Christmas fantasy camp, where they’ll compete in over-the-top Christmas-themed challenges to see who most lives the “Santa Way.” They will vote on who most exemplifies the Christmas spirit, with the winner getting $100,000 and the title of America’s Best Santa.

I have no idea how good or bad this is going to be. It could be cheesy and simply awful, or it could be a lot of fun, something to help get viewers into the Christmas spirit. I’m hoping it’s the second, but even if it’s the first, it might be fun to watch regardless! Based on the photos I saw on the show’s site, most of the wannabe Santas are…different-looking than your normal Kris Kringle. I can’t wait to see how fun and silly the challenges are and which Santa is my favorite!

On tonight’s episode, “Welcome to the North Pole,” the Santas learn how to stack gifts, climb chimneys, and a whole lot more as they embark on a once in a lifetime journey to become America’s Best Santa.

Meet the Santas tonight on TruTV at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Hellevator, Rosewood, The Goldbergs, Criminal Minds, Cutthroat Kitchen, Modern Family, black-ish, Code Black, Mystery Diners, & Top Chef.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 9/23/15

rosewood923smallBones. Castle. They have a lot in common, but the first thing I think of when I compare the two – besides being crime dramas with lots of comedy – is the fact that the two leads are a man and woman with great chemistry. So when I saw the promos for FOX’s new show Rosewood, I knew I’d have to check it out. This Morris Chestnut (Nurse Jackie & The Best Man movies) stars as Dr. Beaumont Rosewood, a brilliant private pathologist in Miami. He’s a little bit like Brennan on Bones in how amazing he is at his job, but he’s much more outgoing and personable than she was/is. Jaina Lee Ortiz (The After) plays Annalise Villa, a new detective for the Miami PD who doesn’t want to like Rosewood but is unable to not be impressed by his abilities. Rosewood’s sister, Pippy (Gabrielle Dennis, The Game), is the “toxicology queen” in his practice, and her fiancée Tara Milly Izikoff, or TMI (Anna Konkle, Man Seeking Woman & Betas) is their DNA specialist.

I’ve seen the pilot, and I have to say that if you love procedurals and shows like Bones and Castle, I think you’ll love this one too. Morris Chestnut is amazingly sexy, and his character is a lot of fun. The chemistry between Rosewood and Villa is great, although they both have some things in their private lives and background (that I won’t spoil) that make a real relationship something I doubt we’ll see right away.

On tonight’s episode, “Pilot,” Dr. Rosewood must team up with Det. Villa in hope of solving a case that hits close to home.

Check out the latest fun crime-solving partners tonight on FOX at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing The Mysteries of Laura, The Goldbergs, Law & Order: SVU, Modern Family, Worst Cooks in America, & black-ish.
