Kathy Bates is not your typical "Matlock." This fun legal comedy-drama has a bit of a twist, and Kathy Bates is, as always, fabulous. Catch it on CBS or stream it on Paramount+.

The West Wing
Reality TV
Guilty pleasures!
This is one of my all-time favorite guilty pleasures. It's quite an insight into how the ultra-rich live. This is the season 1 trailer and a lot has changed over the years, but even though the cast has changed, the glam life they live hasn't.
The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills - Season 1 Trailer
I started watching the Salt Lake City version of Real Housewives out of curiosity. I was easily hooked. Beverly Hills will always be my favorite, but I enjoy checking in on the ladies of SLC, too.
The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City - Season 1 Trailer
Even though I don't attend watch parties, having seen all but a few seasons of “The Bachelor,” I guess I'm part of Bachelor Nation. I enjoy the show—it's definitely a guilty pleasure.
