The day after Thanksgiving is always a disaster because you are stuffed from the night before, sick of your family and wondered why did you brave the malls to save $50 on TV. Well this year it will be a little bit nicer because SpongeBob SquarePants is getting his own Christmas stop-motion special on CBS for all of us to enjoy!
According to the press release It’s a SpongeBob Christmas is based on the song Don’t Be a Jerk, It’s Christmas. The description for the 30-minute future classic is, “Mr. Krabs’ nemesis, Plankton, vows to get his Christmas wish – obtaining the Krusty Krab’s secret Krabby Patty formula – by turning everyone bad in Bikini Bottom with the help of his special jerktonium-laced fruitcake.”
Santa Claus will also be featured in the special and he will be voiced by John Goodman who is the perfect to play Saint Nick!
Now the reason why I am looking forward to it because I will still be on such a turkey high and this will totally be the perfect trip for that!
Tonight at 10p on CBS Sherlock (Jonny Lee Miller) has less than 48 hours to save a kidnapped child on Elementary. For 7 years he has been following The Balloon Man, and now the serial kidnapper has taken another kid. The first child was never found and the others were not found alive. His deduction is that the kids live longer if the parents don’t go to the media and the longest a kid has survived is two days. So now he is racing against the clock to bring this little girl home, but will he make it in time? You have to tune in to find out.
You also have to see how Watson (Lucy Lui) and him have a huge breakthrough in their working relationship. It will change their dynamic on how they solves cases together.
I just have to say that I love hearing Miller talk in his native accent because it just makes the show sound so much smarter.
NBC has decided to cancel Animal Practice and replace it with the why was it renewed Whitney starting on November 14th. Now Animal Practice might not have been the best new show of this weak fall, but I think everyone can agree that their trained monkey Crystal is a millions times funnier, prettier and a better actress than Whitney Cummings. Seriously just when I thought that NBC got their crap together, they do this. I think the TV viewers would rather have Community come back instead of Sh!tney. Unless that unfunny comedy is being aired now to burn it off, so they can air a drama in the 8p slot on Wednesdays.
And talking about midseason NBC will have at least one hole to fill on their Thursday nights when 30 Rock says goodbye soon. Especially since they also killed off the even unfunnier Next Caller. On a positive note I enjoyed 1600 Penn and think that show has potential, but is that enough to save the network’s Thursday nights? You know since Up All Night should be renamed Down in Overnights.
If I were NBC, I would rush a pilot order for a show starring Crystal the Monkey. She needs to be back on weekly TV and NBC needs her to have one.
UPDATE: Tyler Labine Tweeted this about the cancellation, “So long @AnimalPractice. It’s been a blast and a half. Nothing sadder than cleaning out yet another trailer:(” I can’t wait for him to get a successful show for once!
Even though Linda Hogan is no longer getting married, she still opted to appear on TLC’s Brides of Beverly Hills. Maybe it is me but if my engagement was called off, the last thing I would want to do is try on wedding dresses. Especially doing so on a TV show, but like I said that is just me.
Now when you read my headline you will be like there is no such thing as a First Lady debate and you will be right. But to the people that were asked about it outside Jimmy Kimmel Live’s studio, they actually said they watched it and picked their winner. Gotta love what people will do to be on TV.
And you have to watch the video all the way through for a surprise reveal that even made Kimmel laugh on his ABC late night show.
