Thanks for the tip, Dipo. So that my CBS All Access isn't a total waste I'll go over and check out Why Women Kill.

Does anyone know anything about The Terror which is on AMC? Is it worth recording/watching? Also, is it too scary (I'm kind of a puss and don't watch scary shows/movies)

The Terror is an anthology, a different story each season. This season is about the Japanese internment camps in America during WWII. This was a horror in and of itself but this show is adding some kind of Japanese spirit ghost based on Japanese lore.
George Takai was actually in one of those camps when he was a child and he will play a character in this season of The Terror.
To me it looks like it will be pretty good....I'm trying to record and save them all up for binging.
Season one was about a ship in the 1800s(?) trapped in the ice in the arctic for several months. It was more of a psychological drama of the men trying to survive the cold, lack of food and the terrifying specter of some kind of monster picking them off one by one. It turned out that the "Terror" itself was not what it was expected to be....but it induced enough fear in the men to make up for it's lack of supernatural origins.
I expect season two to be very good, but already, in my mind, I see the American internment of Japanese Americans in camps here on American soil as the real terror. Some Americans have never even heard about the Japanese camps they were imprisoned in because they were of Japanese descent. Others think it's a hoax story, just like the holocaust deniers do.

Hmm, that would be the ship captained by Franklin.
they recently found it. Ship From Doomed Arctic Expedition Found After 170 Years
as opposed to the ship caught in ice in the Antarctic where everyone survived under Shackleton. I will have to look it up.

In the first season of "The Terror", the ship was searching for the Northwest Passage when they got frozen.

Yes, the first ep was last Monday, the second is tonight. I think if you subscribe to ad-free AMC, the second ep is already available.

Thanks Naja and SFJF. I will go ahead and leave the recording pass set, and will watch the first episode this weekend On Demand to see if it holds my interest. I'll give it a shot. But if it is scary, I may not make it past the first episode.

If you have Showtime, I highly recommend the documentary Hitsville: The Making of Motown. I really enjoyed it. Very interesting and quite a few funny bits as well. I loved the friendship displayed between Smokey Robinson and Berry Gordy.

I'll put this post to Naja in a spoiler box as I think watchers would enjoy seeing the exchange w/o knowing the outcome. Nothing major.

Ha! I forgot about that. It was pretty funny. I had it wrong, too.

Kelly Clarkson's new talk show starts today! I have really been looking for to it. She has such a happy disposition.

For me it's on ABC at 2 PM. KC area.
eta: I just read that it's syndicated, so it could be on any channel at any time for everyone else. Even the middle of the night. (or not at all)

In Chicago area -- 2:00 Central on NBC, immediately before Ellen.
Article I found said will be on NBC everywhere, but time will vary.

I double checked after you post, and it really is on ABC here in the KC area. So it definitely isn't on NBC everywhere, Color.
Also, Kelly's show is rerun here at 11 PM on the CW. So that's 3 different channels just between the two of us.

It was on 2"30 am here, I did not stay up, but she is too much energy for me. heh I have been complaining bout Colbert being too much energy when he runs out into his audience, grates on my nerves. but he calms down pretty fast

"Jerry O" is only in a few Fox markets, and none of them are in Missouri.

Remember Jeff Probst's daytime show? Wasn't on for more than one year if that long. I still have one show saved on my DVR.
