TV

Recently, I spent an afternoon doing one of my favorite activities: watching a few (or perhaps a few dozen) episodes of Gilmore Girls.

You may try your best to emulate Martha Stewart at every turn. But if your efforts are all in vain, don't worry: Perfection isn't easy as easily attained as America's entertaining tips goddess makes it look. But if you'd like to feel a little bit closer to Stewart, than an upcoming auction from Kaminski Auctions in Beverly, MA may be the opportunity you've been waiting for. Over 400 items—props, furniture, and more—from The Martha Stewart Show are going up for bid starting next month.

America is a weird place. And Baskets is a weird show. Now in it’s third season, FX’s Baskets is the story of Chip Baskets, a struggling French-trained clown who moves back home to Bakersfield, California, when his career as a clown fails to gain any traction. There, Chip is forced to reconnect with his eccentric family, and soon lands a gig at a local rodeo, which doesn’t so much fit his lofty and artistic ideals of clowning; it consists mostly of him being knocked around by a bull.

Sets are a major part of any sitcom. You can watch a show so many times that you feel like you know the characters, and you can watch so much that you feel like you’ve been to their hangouts. For kids growing up in the ‘90s, those hangouts might be Saved by the Bell’s The Max, Beverly Hills, 90210’s The Peach Pit, or, of course, Friends’ Central Perk (which, for the record, I didn’t realize was a play on words for NYC’s Central Park until a solid decade after the show went off the air).

Restaurants are notoriously risky investments—especially small, independent restaurants still looking to gain their footing. But on this week’s episode of Shark Tank, a restauranteur was able to convince two “sharks” that he had a can’t-fail concept: an all-avocado restaurant.
