TV Media Weekly | November 14 - 20, 2015 By Andrew Warren TV Media T hanksgiving, Thanksgiv- ing, it's almost Thanks- giving! Ah yes, the day that marks the start of the holiday season. A day of food, friends, family and, of course, a healthy dose of argu- ing. OK, so maybe that's being a bit cynical. Maybe there are families out there that never have a cross word or a dirty look for each other during the Thanksgiving holiday. For most of us, though, there's going to be some tension, but once our bellies are full of turkey and dessert, we let bygones be by- gones and just bask in each other's company. Well, Rev Run and his family seem a bit like my own when it comes to holidays — they get competitive. Cooking Chan- nel's "Rev Run's Sunday Sup- per" has been inviting viewers into the Simmons home for Sunday night dinners for a while now, and audiences are invited again for "Rev Run's Thanksgiving Supper" airing Sunday, Nov. 15. It's a peek inside the plan- ning for the big Thanksgiving meal, but there's trouble a- brewing in this house. Rev Run's wife, Justine, has been planning the menu for months, but when the reverend decides that he wants to make his crispy, deep-fried turkey, the two decide to throw down and see who can make the best Thanksgiving meal. On Justine's menu: a juicy, oven-roasted turkey with quick-pan gravy; roasted as- paragus with bacon; tangy, homemade cranberry sauce; and a pumpkin pie with ginger- bread crust for dessert. From Rev's corner, to serve alongside his fried turkey, he'll have savory individual stuffing muffin cups and mini apple pie bites. It's a throwdown between the spouses, a dose of healthy competition for the big day. The real winners, though, are the members of their family who get not one, but two mouth- watering Thanksgiving dinners served side by side.
