TV Tonight: Discovery’s Monday Block, Trick My Truck Marathon
(Monday, June 12, 2006) Tonight’s cable/satellite prime time is packed with toolaholic fare with Discovery’s classic Monster Garage/American Chopper block at 8 p.m. preceeded by a replay of the first Motorcycle Mania and followed by more ‘Chopper re-runs. (Personally, Motorcycle Mania IV is our favorite — gotta love Kid Rock — but the first one is fun, too. There’s something enjoyable about watching tool-head Jesse James take over Discovery.)
If home improvement has your attention right now, you’ll find your fix on Discovery Home and TLC earlier on this evening starting around 6 p.m.
And, if you haven’t yet checked out Trick My Truck, tonight’s the night to jump in. CMT’s running a marathon with eight episodes. (Think of Trick My Truck as Pimp-My-Ride-meets-BJ-and-the-Bear.)
