What's On Tonight (Friday): Get Lurie

Via Gfycat

Top Pick
⭐ Painting With John (HBO, 11:00 PM) A new unscripted series from John Lurie. 'Each episode has Lurie, the co-founder of musical group The Lounge Lizards, at his worktable, honing his watercolor techniques and sharing what he’s learned about life. With images of Lurie’s paintings, original music and his point of view all rolled into one, the series strikes an irreverent tone while reminding us to prioritize some time every day for creativity, fun and a bit of mischief.' The premiere is titled 'Bob Ross Was Wrong,' which sounds like fightin' words to me.
