Children’s Book Has an Inappropriate Title? (“Tonight Show”)

Random Thoughts…

• I gave “Spartan Ultimate Team Challenge” a shot last night and thought it had potential. I just wish they wouldn’t cut into the actual event with their personality packages. It takes you out of the moment.
• Note to James Corden: Doesn’t Sting need a ride to work?

Random Thoughts…

• Caught the first half of “Roots” last night and was blown away. So hard to watch.
• “Game of Thrones” hit the brakes to give us a bit of a breather. But, now that that’s done, I want them to fight over Winterfell!
• The wife and I have decided on Season 1 of “Mr. Robot” for our first summer binge.
• “American Ninja Warrior” might be the best summer show. Since failure is the norm, you really get excited when they succeed.

‘Maya & Marty’ (NBC: 10pm) – Martin Short is a legend and I’d watch Maya Rudolph read from a phone book. This variery show should be a blast.
