We're Back! (for now...)

Welcome to the newly revamped We Like TV!  We haven't posted here in a while (about a year and a half), but we figured it was time to start up again.  Notice the new modern look, the slideshow of pictures on the side, and the label cloud on the bottom.  While a lot has changed in the last year and a half, one thing has not: our love of television!

Actually, I take it back.  It has. Our love of television has greatly grown over the last year and a half.  We've gone from strictly watching our Thursday night NBC comedies (and the occasional show on the side), to expanding our TV horizons to watch lots of great shows, on non-NBC networks and non-Thursday nights.  Each week we have a full schedule of shows to watch, which means each day we'll have a whole lot to blog about.  While in the past we had posted on a pretty inconsistent and infrequent rate, now are vowing to do our very best to post on a somewhat regular basis.

Welcome back to We Like TV, and our first real post of 2012 should be coming soon...

TV Clip of the Day: Bronx Beat with Betty White

The legendary Betty White hosted SNL last night, and what a show it was! Not only was she the host, but past SNL cast members Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph, Rachel Dratch, Molly Shannon and Ana Gasteyer all returned to the show last night for a big Mother's Day special! With these old cast members back on SNL, we saw the return of some classic sketches such as Delicious Dish, classic characters such as Molly Shannon's Sally O'Mally, and class impressions such as Maya Rudolph's Whitney Houston. However, one thing that we did not see was the return of our favorite SNL sketch, Bronx Beat. We've blogged about the sketch before and posted it here a few times, and with the return of Amy Poehler and Maya Rudolph, we really thought we might get the chance to see it come back, but unfortunately, it never happened.

That was, until this morning, when I read that they did indeed film a new Bronx Beat sketch during dress rehearsal! (There was also a cut Debbie Downer sketch too!) It was cut from the live show, but with the magic of the Internet, it is now available online! Here it is:

TV Clip of the Day: Behind the Scenes

Today, I found 2 great clips from behind the scenes of two of my favorite shows. The first clip is a candid video of the cast of Community finding out that they've just been renewed for a second season!

By the way, The Office, 30 Rock, and Parks & Recreation have all been renewed as well! Our NBC Thursday night line up stays intact!

The second clip of the day is behind the scenes of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. This past Monday was the 1 year anniversary of the show, and to surprise him, The Roots and the rest of the crew presented him with a huge cake, complete with figurines of The Roots and icing photos from the show:

Congrats to Community and Late Night with Jimmy Fallon!
