Craig Ferguson and Tim Daly are going to guest star on Hot in Cleveland tonight and they have a very important question for Joy (Jane Leeves). Besides asking her to marry them, the two actors want to know whose rock is bigger! Although I am not sure which rock they are talking about because it seemed like they were talking more about their royal jewels as compared to royal jewel in their hands. Hopefully Joy will get that appraised for us on the season finale tonight at 10p on TV Land.
Valerie Bertinelli Tweeted this photo of Dave Foley and her in bed looking like that were caught doing something they shouldn’t, so do they have something to tell us? Sadly nope, according to the actress it is just another day on the set of Hot in Cleveland.
Ladies and Gentlemen, that is why TV Land made sure to put hot in the title. You know, because the show is hot hot hot.
Tonight at 10p on TV Land, Hot in Cleveland turns 100. That is eight more episodes than the years that their star Betty White has been alive. Which is quite an accomplishment for both of them! Here’s to them both doubling those numbers.
When it comes to episode, it is a laugh riot from beginning to end. I found myself laughing so hard, I had tears come to my eyes because they really go for it tonight repeatedly.
The night that Victoria Chase (Wendie Malick) and Elka (Betty White) have been waiting for is finally here. It is Oscar night for Victoria and Election Day for Elka, and by the end of the episode both ladies will find out if they won.
Chase can’t fake her emotions if she loses, so she decides to do a Joan Crawford and stay in her Cleveland bed with a network camera rolling in case she win. As she waits for her category to be announced, Joy is by her side dressed as a nurse but things keep going wrong. Joy (Jane Leeves) tries to correct everything, and the final product will have you laughing so hard it will make you cry. But will you be crying for Chase because she lost?
Then there is Elka, who is playing dirty to win. She comes up with a great plan to sabotage her opponent and it will cost her more than she ever thought. Will it also cost her the election?
What about the last roommate, Melanie (Valerie Bertinelli)? The radio station has created some visuals to promote her show and they photoshopped her picture. People are laughing about her online, so she decides to go on a diet. Things only get worse for her when her mother decides to come for a visit. That and not eating anything to lose weight. You don’t want miss her freak out. And you don’t want miss why all the girls rightfully give Joy the finger.
And you especially don’t want to miss this episode. Even though the sitcom is turning 100, it never gets old. In fact, I think this season they have gone through a resurgence and it is their best one yet. Not many shows can claim that at this stage of the game. Actually not many shows can say they’ve reached this number and TV Land’s first scripted show totally deserves it.
Congrats to everyone who works on this show for not only reaching this milestone, but also for coming up with a comedy that everyone of all ages can enjoy.
Valerie Bertinelli was filming a scene for Hot in Cleveland in a makeshift morgue, when she found herself almost being sent to a real one.
Melanie tells Joy on the phone, “Over my dead body,” as she looks at a dead body under a sheet. I guess she was expecting a dummy to be under it; because when the body suddenly sits up, she nearly has a heart attack.
The prankster is the Executive Producer of the show Todd Milliner, and the cuter than cute actress called him what she probably just did in her pants. Which you can’t blame her because we would all do the same thing.
That prank shows what a fun set they have for the sitcom and that is why it won’t be sent to the television morgue any time soon. So make sure to tune in tonight at 10p on TV Land for another hysterical episode.
Hot in Cleveland is naturally a very animated show and in two weeks (7/30) the sitcom will literally be animated. That’s because out girls will be drawn for a special episode that also stars Steven Tyler.
So how do our girls become cartoonish? According to TV Land:
The episode starts with the women at Elka’s apartment, which before now has been a mystery to them…and they soon find out why. From there, they will meet up with Steven Tyler (and some other special friends) and go on a psychedelic romp through pop culture hits, including scenes with homages to “Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory,†“The Walking Dead†and “Frankenstein.†Plus, they’ll also see what life in Cleveland would have been like if LeBron James had never left.
This episode was obviously planned out for a while, so it will be interesting to see if it will be dated when it comes to the King James part of the story.
Now when it comes to animated versions of Betty White, Valerie Bertinelli, Jane Leeves and Wendie Malick, it is scary how much they look like the real thing. Don’t you agree?
