TV Land the network that airs classic shows like Three’s Company, Roseanne and All in the Family to name a few decided to branch out into their own scripted programming with Hot in Cleveland and that decision has proven to be such a huge success that they picked up for a second. The show’s season premiere was watched by almost 5 million people and since that airing it has kept a majority of the audience and it is the most buzzed about show this summer. Granted it didn’t hurt that they have the hottest woman in the entertainment on the show, but the sitcom is so much more than Betty White! It is also about Valerie Bertinelli, Wendie Malick and Jane Leeves and the chemistry between the four women along with the hysterical writing. I can’t wait to see what those writers will come up with for them when the show comes back in January for a 20 episode second season.
If it is anything like tonight’s hot episode with Huey Lewis and Amy Yasbeck, it is going to make the coldest winter day in Cleveland feel very very hot. On tonight’s episode on TV Land at 10p the girls go to a party at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame because Wendie Malick decides to get revenge on her ex-rocker boyfriend (Huey Lewis) and Valerie Bertinelli wants to meet her favorite rock star (Amy Yasbeck) ever. Things do not go well for Valerie when she meets her music icon, but I don’t want to kiss and tell about how bad it goes because you will want to see what happens! There were so many awesome sexual innuendos and crazy antics done by the whole cast tonight that it truly reminded me of The Golden Girls’ comedic genius. I haven’t felt that way about any sitcom since the last one that Betty White starred in with 3 other talented women. One last note about tonight’s episode someone needs to give Amy Yasbeck a show ASAP because she brilliant!!! Oh and Huey Lewis really impressed me with his acting chops.
