What's On Tonight (Tuesday): Can We Mourn?

 

Via Pinterest.

Tonight's Top Pick is Joan Rivers: A Dead Funny All-Star Tribute. I forgot that Joan's been dead for more than 10 years now. I don't have to sell this crowd on Joan, but I'll say Enter Talking and Still Talking are must-reads.


While I marvel at the matching sheer black veil, dress, and panties worn by that tramp, Heidi Abramowitz, let's see what else TV has to offer us for Tuesday, May 13. All times are EST.
