Sweet Tea & TV

What do a tabby cat, a 1921 Alaska license plate, and a buncha fishing lure have in common? They’re all things Suzanne could love, once she learns their true price tag! This episode of “Designing Women” introduces us to Sugarbaker’s latest “off the beam” client, but is she really? She’s not telling, ‘cause she’s off to the “Great Pet Store in the Sky”, but maybe a newly-found, handwritten will can solve this mystery!

And stick around for this week’s “Extra Sugar”, where we learn about the value of “one man’s trash.”

Oh, boy - a nudist colony AND mini-me's for Suzanne and Julia ALL IN ONE EPISODE?!?! Can we even handle all the excitement? I think we can. Even if just to see how Julia and Suzanne react to their act-alike nieces (hey! Clayton’s back! Sorta.) AND what material is most comfortable on a couch…for bare bums. 

At some point, we’ll “Salina’s Sidebar” on what a nudist colony community is exactly. Definitely stick around for some literal “Extra Sugar” this week - “Nikki’s Nibbles” is bringing us Southern candy!

The gals are worried when Charlene joins a cult, er, uh, we mean, starts selling cleaning products for Lady June Belle. Meanwhile, Anthony runs for homecoming representative, bringing him and Suzanne closer together. And whatever you do, don’t forget, “Don’t think of excuses to fail, think of reasons to succeed.”

Stick around for this week’s “Extra Sugar,” where we discuss multi-level marketing.

This week, we meet the *perfect* man. He’s educated, polite, funny and…RICH! Sounds like a match made in heaven for Suzanne. There’s just one little catch…he’s blind and can’t see her for how beautiful she really is. Or can he??? Guess we’ll find out

Speaking of how beautiful Suzanne is, let’s honor her hard work by talking all things spas in “Salina’s Sidebar.”

Last, but never least, stick around for this week’s “Extra Sugar,” where Julia’s taking us to the mall (in our heads) with her Lenox Mall reference.

Boy meets girl. Boy falls in love. Boy…secretly hides that love for a decade? That’s what we learned happened to poor Odell, Charlene’s beloved brother when he rushes to Atlanta for help navigating a tough family feud. Charlene faces an even tougher decision - help her baby brother or honor her father. 

Stick around for “Extra Sugar”, where Salina learns us up about famous Southern feuds. 

What happens when you take a frog-gigging flashlight, an assault rifle, a full moon, and mix ‘em with our Designing Women? Well, you gotta end up at the jail to find out. This week, we’ve got a full Saturday night of madcap mayhem with the ladies.

Salina takes us on one of her sidebars: this time about car dates. Oh, and in Nikki’s, “Lunar Lunacy: The Myths, The Truths, and What To Do About It” “Extra Sugar”, she’s gonna tell us everything we need to know behind this myth (or is it a myth…???)

Oh no! It’s trouble in paradise for Mary Jo and JD when he loses his job and goes from business trips to casseroles. Elsewhere, Suzanne and Anthony squabble over their health club – and we finally meet Tovah, Charlene’s psychic!

 

Wait, wait…we see a “Salina’s Sidebar” about astrology and other mysticism in your future. And stick around for this week’s “Extra Sugar” – Shacking Up: A History.

Charlene and Bill are getting married! Her first test: meeting her very fancy, very wealthy in-laws. Meanwhile, Mary Jo is over JD and onto a 20-something who throws keggers and…wears boxers on his head? Sure.

 

We just have to dedicate a “Salina’s Sidebar” to old Southern money. But stick around for this week’s “Extra Sugar” – we’re talking Southern wedding traditions y’all!

We were so excited to visit Horizon Theatre, here in Atlanta, to see the Designing Women play, 2020: The Big Split! Let’s cover our special, Sweet Tea & TV field trip, complete with a delicious dinner at Wisteria!

Join us as we discuss our reactions, as well as how it compares to the virtual performance from TheatreSquared that we watched and reviewed over two episodes in season 2 of our show.

In a tale as old as time, Charlene, Bill–and the exotic dancer they’re both handcuffed to–will take that age-old walk down the aisle where three become one. Join us as we break down all the wedding festivities!

Stick around for this week’s “Extra Sugar” – we’re talking bachelorette parties y’all!
