What's On Tonight (Saturday): Million dollar horsey

The Run for a Million

Mother Mary comes to me! Here's what's on television for tonight, Sunday, July 26!

Our Top Pick tonight is The Run for a Million (CBS & Paramount+, 8 p.m.). This Taylor Sheridan sports event has a bunch of horse riders running a fancy obstacle course. The best one gets $1 million. This is in the top spot because of the continued lack of Saturday TV options. In my world, no sport would be allowed to use horses.

Elsewhere, the Babysitter starts a different kind of club, packages Find You, and Superman has Dinner.

What's On Tonight (Friday): Conan O'Brien Travels the Globe Righting Wrongs and Doing Bits

        

Conan O'Brien Must Go

Today's Top Pick is the third season premiere of Conan O'Brien Must Go.  I know there are a lot of celebrity travel shows out there, but not many have someone as entertaining as Conan at the center.  I'm assuming he's entertaining anyway.  I've never watched it.

⭐🌍 Conan O'Brien Must Go (HBO, 9:00 PM) SEASON THREE PREMIERE. 'Features Conan O'Brien visiting India, the Netherlands, Morocco, and the Philippines to meet podcast fans and explore local cultures.'

Artists and Models and Your Own Thursday Headlines

This week's Notable Opening Night is Aug. 20, 1923, when the first Artists and Models revue opened at the Shubert. The revue was something of an off-Broadway transfer, having originated in Greenwich Village. In five productions from 1923-26, 1927-28, and a month in 1930, Artists and Models was a way to see topless and naked women on Broadway. Perhaps my friend, the lady who digs death, would love seeing a production?

Next week, a sharp-dressed show.

Feed Me: Potatoes

 

Off the top of your head, you can probably list a few different ways to enjoy the potato, but I imagine you'd also be surprised to see just how many dishes there are.

"Without the potato, the balance of European power might never have tilted north."

-Michael Pollan

We had french fries last night, with Hubby's homemade Sloppy Joe's.

Yum.

It will never actually be over. I never met my partner's dad but I was with my partner when he died. His mother could not admit that I was who I was so I was the help. I knew her for about a decade. She had to treat me nice because I "wasn't" an in-law. My partner set his best friend and I against each other so we wouldn't gang up on him.
