The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder |
Happy St. Patrick's Eve! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, March 16!
Our top pick tonight is The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder (Disney+, 3 a.m.), the revival of Disney Channel's groundbreaking and ended-too-early The Proud Family. The animated family comedy follows the Prouds with a POV mostly from 14-year-old Penny. She's got a BFF, an overprotective dad, working mom, grandma, and school friends and enemies. I loved the original but haven't watched this series as upon recent events, I canceled Disney+.
Elsewhere, a Goldberg wants to be young again, the Alien is gonna be a parent, the Conners learn sad news, the Fosters make Good Trouble, South Park celebrates St. Patrick, Wonder Years learns about prison, Miss World is crowned, Snowfall attacks, and Lilly gets detention.
