Whats Hot On TV

There just isn’t anything tonight that’s bigger than the Dancing With the Stars performance finale. It appears to be ending in the nick of time, as if you look at Bruno’s face in the pic above, he seems like he’s in need of cranking one out. And although I promised you holiday viewing from hereon on out, there really isn’t anything suitable tonight to be called “hot” as far as holiday viewing other than The Holiday, and I’ve already mentioned my adoration of this film several times in these lists. Instead, be sure to watch My Own Worst Enemy which has been cancelled and is just finishing up its already filmed episodes. I’m hoping to find a way to save it on the SciFi Channel or something.
