Did we did we not? US prosecutors are mum. Of course they pushed legal bounds to bursting in gathering Don Lemon's phone calls. The excuse? He was covering a protest. All protesters on the left are traitors.  All fascist protesters are patriots. 


Don Lemon was not protesting. He was simply there to report the news. The right of a free press is as old as our country. It means noting under our fascist administration. [Guardian]

What's On Tonight (Thursday): Powers to the people

 

Courtesy The Hollywood Reporter.

Tonight's Top Pick is the second season premiere of Chad Powers, which is apparently happening in a six-episode burnoff at 12:01 a.m. on Hulu. Well, you gave it your best shot, Glen Powell. You gave it your all.

Feed Me: Coconut

 


I'm not often a fan of shredded coconut, but I don't always hate a macaroon.

I might prefer these Chewy Coconut Bars.

Or maybe a Dulce de Coco?

What's On Tonight (Wednesday): Hard knock life

The Hardacres

May the Lego be with you! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, September 2!

Our Top Pick tonight is The Hardacres (BritBox, 3 a.m.). This UK drama is like The Beverly Hillibillies meets The Forsyte Saga (or The Gilded Age) meets All Creatures Great and Small where the poor Hardacre family inherits a large estate and must adapt to a new social class because they want to fit in, mostly. The family is a force for good and life lessons can be spoon fed. It fills a PBS Masterpiece niche.

Elsewhere, Reacher runs, Gal Gadot is a RunnerDiarra is held hostage, Ted faces Chelsea, MasterChef goes real time, Netflix recalls 9/11, and Lindsay Clancy get primetime news treatment.

What's On Tonight (Tuesday): Talk about a throwback!

 

Courtesy Deadline.

Tonight's Top Pick is the two-episode series premiere of The Varnell Hill Show, which is not only starring Tommy Davidson, perhaps best known for In Living Color, but having him reprise a role he played nearly 33 years ago on Martin. If this was any more early '90s FOX, I'd have to use tin foil to get the station.

Somebody spent a lot of time making this. Sanding alone must have taken weeks. They probably got a C, maybe a D in shop class. Mom or maybe dad insisted on using it in spite of everything and now it could be a salad bowl.


That's where we're at now.
