#TheRoundUp By Enzer - No. 52

HOT ON TV 


American Housewife on ABC: an interesting take on the passably modern American woman. 

What am I talking about, the show is a hit! The producers managed to use a concept which TV fans are familiar with (e.g. Reba aired on The CW) and somehow made it look like they invented the sub-genre. 

Escaping to the perceivably opulent neighborhoods of Westport, Connecticut can be equated to one of a dog’s good days when his keeper provides treats for unknown reasons (or maybe we have been good boys and girls, who knows?).

Lead actress, Katie Mixon (Katie Otto) is immeasurably talented and has succeeded at captivating viewers by exceptionally bringing her role to life since 2016. Her on-screen persona is one of the reasons why I’m still watching the series (I know I say that all the time). She is undoubtedly one of the best actresses on TV at the moment meaning she could possibly rival the leading ladies of Modern Family, also on ABC

The rest of the main cast (mainly the lead character’s family) consisting of actors Diedrich Bader (Greg), Meg Donnelly (Taylor), Daniel DiMaggio (Oliver), Julia Butters (Anna-Kat), Ali Wong (Doris) and Carly Hughes (Angela) are a great support unit and totally deserve the mention (and awards). 

I suggest you binge watch this Sarah Dunn creation for non-stop ABC Funny TV moments. 






HOTTER:

It’s a yes! The 2018  iHeart Radio Music Awards aired in syndication about a week ago from L.A.  
Hosted by Hailey Baldwin and DJ Khaled (Enzer’s World (E.W.)’s Best Hip-Hop/Rap Act for the 5th E.W. Year 2017), the ceremony was an award show with a difference. 

The angle with which the producers and directors developed and delivered the spectacular event was astonishing. I can safely say that the iHeart Radio Music Awards are no longer your general awards show. 

Good luck proving me wrong.



The 90th Academy Awards 2018 aired on ABC a few weeks ago and were hosted by funny man Jimmy Kimmel (he has jokes for days, doesn’t he?) 

The Hollywood glamor which we all celebrate enthusiastically rose to the occasion. 

Besides the negative after-show publicity (Trump’s comments; low rating card; ‘unpopular’ films) the event was breath-taking and lived up to its reputation as entertainment’s biggest night nonetheless. 



*Other series to catch: UnReal (Lifetime), Riverdale (The CW), Dynasty (The CW), Modern Family (ABC), Empire (FOX), How To Get Away With Murder (ABC).

THROWBACK:

Did you watch the 21st season of Celebrity Big Brother UK (CBBUK) on Channel 5 and the 1st season of Celebrity Big Brother USA (CBBUS) on CBS

Well, I did! And I loved it, I loved both of them. 

It has been a while since a version of Big Brother has kept me glued to my small screen so I’m pretty sure I am going to re-watch all the episodes to celebrate that, LOL. 

Oh and one more thing, it really seemed like it was the
year of the gays. Yep, the CBBUK winner was Australian drag queen, Courtney Act and the runner-up for CBBUS was none other than Ross Mathews




If you are thinking of picking a good TV show to watch with your friends or family over a ‘long’ weekend then I’d suggest you pick a little show called Reba. The all-time favorite sitcom which was unmissable TV back in its day had a noteworthy cast (including ShamelessSteve Howey (Kevin)) and hilarious storylines which robbed us all of our sanity.

A.I. UPDATE:


Congratulations! 


The current season of American Idol (A.I.) really knocked me off my feet. I usually switch channels after about fifteen minutes into the premiere episodes of these kinda reality shows but guess what, I have watched every minute thus far. 

The producers and the rest of the season sixteen team have already scored big time on my scoreboard.

The quality of the contestants is divine and the judging panel (Luke Bryan, Lionel Ritchie, and Katy Perry) is to die for, I no longer have doubts i.e. move over Randy, Paula and Simon, a new hit squad is in town!

The EYE CANDY: OMG! It is a pity most of them are still teens. *hides*

I cannot wait for Hollywood Week to begin so that I put my prediction skills to the test once again.

IN THE NEWS

There is a pastor from Florida called Pastor Anderson who has been making headlines because of his staunch stance against the L.G.B.T.I. community. He has been banned from entering several countries and has been deported from a few after his deeply homophobic, backward, ancient and derogatory messages and sermons were made public. 

I really hope he gets the ‘help’ that he needs. If everything turns out to be fine ‘upstairs’ then I’d suggest (I’m full of suggestions today, hey, LOL) he goes back to his church in Florida where many of his dedicated followers will be waiting anxiously for him to deliver all that he was ordained to deliver because surely, it doesn’t help traveling around the world, preaching to people that do not care and at worst are offended each time he opens his mouth. 

Please, sir, spare yourself the humiliation by saving time and money which will enable you to devotedly study the holy scriptures over and over again before mental health doctors are called to ‘save the day.’ 

And no, this is not a mic-drop moment, thank you very much.
