Tonight's Top Pick is Stuart Fails to Save the Universe, debuting at 9 p.m. on HBO Max. Because, hey, I'm just glad I was able to complete this post.

I'm still having problems with new posts so I dredged up another old post and put some good news on it. Since good news is hard to find this good news was sparked by deaths of four more innocents.[Guardian]
But with chipotle hollandaise.
It was delicious.
Chorizo in place of ham, and this recipe shows avocado in the picture as well.

Tonight's Top Pick is Ms. Pat Settles It, airing at 9 p.m. on BET. Because I just couldn't justify giving it to Bill Maher: The Kennedy Center Mark Twain Prize for American Humor. Or the In The City reunion. Or the season premiere of Kitchen Nightmares. Or the Bravo premiere of The Real Housewives of London. What I'm getting at is that there's a lot of crap scheduled for tonight, so you can easily skip watching TV.

I get to sing this again! Three's the charm.
Ding Dong the Witch is Dead. Which old Bitch? The Wicked Mitch! Ding Dong the wicked Bitch is Dead! Not holding my breath, but hopeful.
Tonight's Top Pick is "The Dating Game," a new episode of POV airing at 10 p.m. on PBS. Luckily for me, the episode's actually about relationships and not, say, carbon dating.

| The Wonderful World of Disney / Speed |
Too many cooks! Here's what's on television for tonight, Sunday, July 19!
Our Top Pick tonight is the The Wonderful World of Disney with its premiere of Speed (ABC, 8:30 p.m. / Disney+, now). This isn't Speed's first time on broadcast TV. The action thriller premiered on Fox in 1996, but tonight is the 20th Century film's first time as a Wonderful World presentation. Even before Disney bought Fox, Wonderful had plenty of non-Disney titles, especially in the early 2010s, and it seemed to be on its deathbed before getting new life during the pandemic. Speed kicks off a few weeks of Wonderful premieres -- True Lies, While You Were Sleeping, Cocktail. Then it's back to repeated movies.
Elsewhere, a Vampire band has a final show, HGTV is All Inn on Maine, going viral means he'll Find Me, Morty goes to summer camp, and the Westies deal cocaine.
Welcome to the Weekend in Pop Culture! Let's examine what's coming out in theaters this weekend.
