What's On Tonight (Saturday): Bow before your Kings

Kings of BBQ

Dammit Barry! Here's what's on television for tonight, Saturday, August 26!

Our Top Pick tonight is Kings of BBQ (A&E, 9 p.m.). Together actor-producers Anthony Anderson and Cedric the Entertainer are starting AC Barbeque, following the duo's passion for barbeque. To improve on their technique and culinary know-how, they venture out across America to learn from some of the best.

Elsewhere, FLCL gets Progressive, the Johnsons have an understanding, Dr. Stone finds treasure, love is at a Wedding and in Napa, and Catchy Comedy wonders whatever happened to predictability.

(All times are Eastern. All listings are new unless otherwise stated. For more listings, visit The Futon Critic or Zap2it.)
