Minnesota mean

Minnesotans get their fair share of ribbing on "Fargo," but that's nothing compared with the abuse they take in "Hidden America With Jonah Ray," a fake travel show embarking on its second season.

Keep your sensitive side on ice.

Isn't it rich?

Your heart may race with anticipation when "Second Wives Club" promises to introduce you to the wife of a famous Hollywood actor.
