| National Treasure: Edge of History |
Let's do it in my twin bed! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, December 14!
Our Top Pick tonight is the premiere of National Treasure: Edge of History (Disney+, 3 a.m.). This is yet another show that is a continuation of a film series. I saw the two movies but didn't like either, so my retention of what happened in them is minuscule. FBI agent Harvey Keitel and Justin Bartha are the only announced cast members who made their way from the movies to this show. A third movie is in the works.
Elsewhere, it's Santa v. Santa at the North Pole, SNL celebrates Christmas, restaurant owners mistakenly picked Up the Phone, Willow seeks an unseen darkness, John Legend searches for Harmony, Lego finds a new Master, a Survivor survives, and Nova restores Notre Dame.
