What To Watch Tonight – Thursday, December 27, 2018

What To Watch Tonight? We’ve got the last of the Charlie Brown specials of the year with the perfectly okay, Happy New Year, Charlie Brown. Also on tonight of note, all new Top Chef – one of the few original programs on tonight worth watching. And our other stand by, checking out some excellent episodes of Doctor Who … Tennant isn’t our favorite Doctor but he IS our second favorite Doctor and all of his eps are worth a watch!

What To Watch Tonight – Wednesday, December 26, 2018

What To Watch Tonight?  The post-Christmas blues set in tonight with a dearth of original TV. That being said, we’re genuinely excited to watch Hamilton‘s creators be honored at The 41st Annual Kennedy Center Honors.  Also on, a Doctor Who marathon! This is the best we can ask for these dark days of late December.

What To Watch Tonight – Tuesday, December 25, 2018

Ho-Ho-Ho! Meeeerrrrry Christmas! What To Watch Tonight?  Not a Goddamn thing. Santa was so busy delivering presents to the good girls and boys, he forgot to schedule anything on TV for the good adults! Tonight, we’re continuing our binge of Marvel’s Runaways, Season 2. Also on that we like, Harry Potter And The Sorcerer’s Stone! A non-traditional Christmas movie that it is totally a Christmas movie in vibe.  If you need a laugh tonight, Impractical Jokers will keep you in stitches all night long!

What To Watch Tonight – Monday, December 24, 2018

‘Twas the night before Christmas and all through your TV, not a creature was stirring not even a repeat-y. Ugh, that was horrible. But really, What To Watch Tonight? There is less than nothing on.

The holiday classic (which I am personally not a big fan of), It’s a Wonderful Life, is on tonight so I guess there is that as you wrap presents and spend time with your family. I’ve put it in the 1 spot tonight because it’s holiday theme but for me, I am going to be cracking Season 2 of Marvel’s Runaways, all episodes of which are now streaming on Hulu.  Also, Monday Night Football!

With all of the Fall Season activity percolating and popping, I have been remiss in posting the first photos published for new season of The Magicians.

What To Watch Tonight?  We’re repeating Christmas specials at this point, people. Run Run Run away! Turn off the TV … go see Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse at the movies. There is no good, original, TV tonight. Well, watch Vikings but then turn off the TV otherwise.
