Tonight at 8p, we get not one but two new episodes of Great News. The first one at 8p, is A Christmas Carol with Carol as Scrooge.
Carol (Andrea Martin) loves Christmas so much that she has made her daughter, Katie (Briga Heelan), hate it. Therefore, when Greg (Adam Campbell) tells everyone they have to work on Christmas, Katie is happy to be away from her mom and Carol is not happy about it. That is until Carol decides to bring some Christmas cheer into newsroom. All is going as planned for her until she falls from the second floor to the first while putting the star on the huge tree and is visited by the ghosts of Christmas past, present in future. What will she learn from it?
Meanwhile, Katie has offered to help take care of Chuck Pierce’s (John Michael Higgins) estranged son (wait until you see who they cast) while he works and she wants to help bring this father and son together at last. Will she be able to make a Christmas miracle happen?
Then at 8:30p, Carol and Chuck have been sentenced to Sensitivity Training because of the things that they have said and done in the newsroom. They decide they do not need the class, so they try to show everyone else they also need the class. What could wrong? Everything!
That is what makes Great News a quirky fun show that is the perfect fix for Thursday nights!
Alfonso Ribeiro has said that there will not be a Fresh Prince of Bel Air reunion since James Avery is no longer with us, and Will Smith also blamed Uncle Phil for why he won’t do it.
When Graham Norton asked cousin Will if we are going to see a revival of the ’90s sitcom, he said, “I’d have to be Uncle Phil in that one.” Then he explained why, “C’mon Aunt Viv, I am 50. I cannot go out on my own?”
Why not? It could work. He moves back in with his aunt and cousin, and this time he is raising a rambunctious son. Will still acts like a kid, so she has to punish her nephew and grand nephew all the time. I would watch! Plus, Carlton can have a nerdy kid just like him, who doesn’t get along with his cousin. Or better yet, Carlton has the punky kid and Will has the geek. Now, that would be a huge hit! Suck it Fuller House.
The trailer is out for the sequel to Mamma Mia and I thought I was going to have to call out an SOS about it. Now, that I see what they are going to do with it, I am a Dancing Queen. Who is going be a Super Trooper and go see it with me on July 20th?
I just have one question, how is Cher old enough to play Meryl Streep’s mom? Cher deserves another Oscar just for that!
Thinkmodo decided to scare some New Yorkers by putting an alien in a newspaper machine and watching their reactions when they were visited by an extra terrestrial. Needless to say, they all got scared and had stuff come out of the places that martians probe. If you catch my drift.
Carson Daly wanted to see how his Today co-anchors would react to The X-Files (which is back on Fox January 3rd) prank and let’s just say only 2 out of the 3 scares could be shown. Proper former-First Daughter Jenna Bush Hager actually cursed and Dylan Dreyer screamed so loud the spaceships hovering over us heard her. When it comes to Hoda Kotb, it must’ve been something out of this world because they could not show it. Which is a real oh Hell no!
But at least we got to see all those other people get the fright of their lives and for New Yorkers that is saying a lot.
2017 has been a crappy year, mostly because of the man sitting in the White House. If Barry Manilow had his way, he would take over that office to make music for people to get laid to. If we were all having passionate sex again, then maybe we would all be happy again. Therefore, he has my vote. After all he writes the songs that make the whole world sing. So let us belt out that special song we all sing after sex and make his Tweet one step closer to reality.
