I LOVE this show year 'round, but my favorite episode is the food episode they have annually around the holidays. Heads up - It’ll be on this Sunday, the 22nd. YC

RE: CBS Sunday Morning - Eat, Drink, and Be Merry

yeschef - CBS Sunday Morning is my favorite TV show, bar none. It's been "must see" watching in our family for years. In fact we still refer to it as "Kuralt", as in, make sure your friends know not to call during "Kuralt."

I learn something new from watching it every week. And even when they profile a celebrity, or deal with a subject, I'm not crazy about, I usually come away seeing that person or story through a different lens and with more appreciation.

Funny story..my granddaughter happened to be born on a Sunday last March. My daughter wrote the show requesting a tape of it as a keepsake. She wrote that it was probably the first time no one in our family had seen the show since it began airing.

I always love their "Eat, Drink & Be Merry" show. Can't believe it's already that time again! Great of you to think to post.

That's funny, it's kind of a family tradition with us too. There just aren't variety shows of this caliber on TV. I actually get cranky if I miss it, and I'm not a big TV person!

Never heard of this show, but it sounds like something I would like to see. What time does it come on?

RE: CBS Sunday Morning - Eat, Drink, and Be Merry

Goodness, I've been watching it since it came on in 1978 or so. Try to never miss it, and now with DVR, I don't. It's my regular Sunday morning activity. On the east coast it's on at 9AM, it's an hour and a half. There's music, and a "homily", and announcements, and a few other things, and a wonderful benediction at the end. Better than church.

Interesting, momj47. Your description made me do a double take, but spiritually you are right on. This show keeps me in touch with the world I want to be a part of and believe is still out there. Definitely feeds my soul for arts and culture.

Bev, it is on at 8:00 am here at Mountain Central Time. YC

Okay, I think that means it's on at 10:00 in my Central Time Zone so I will be in church and have to DVR which is great since I DVR everything you might say.

Wow - I may have to TIVO this... I have never heard of this show and honestly didn't know there was anything on TV on Sunday mornings except SportsCenter. I sort of presumed it was all infomercials or something......

It's on at 8AM in the central time zone in Texas, I have to remember to set her DVR when I'm down visiting my DD, so I don't miss it. I think it's on at 9AM on the West Coast.

I agree! Love this show. This Sunday will be Bobby Flay and the history of Mac & Cheese.

The only problem... that new FN show 'Alex's Day Off' comes on at 9:30 and it's just too good to miss. And of course, I'm back in the dark ages again.. once they did away with vcr and moved to more techy stuff, my brain said no no no more stuff to learn! Will have to switch back and forth.

I'll have to remember to look for it next weekend.

Thanks for the heads up, I wouldn't have had the TV on!

I really enjoyed it, even DH watched.

momj47 - I had to chuckle, thinking of your post, when I saw one of the profiles on today's show was actually a priest!

My favorite part of the show was the feature on "Eating for One" with the woman who helped Julia Child market her first cookbook. DH sometimes travels for work and I make a point to make homecooked meals, even though I'm dining alone. Some friends wonder why I bother, and she explained better than I could how soul satisfying, as well as nourishing, it is.

Back to the church analogy...We've always made it a practice to not speak during the nature scenes at the end. My kids sometimes rolled their eyes at this during their teenage years, but I find it touching and amusing that they now follow suit in their own households.

With each segment, I thought this is my favorite, no this is my favorite.

Until the nature scene at the end, which I always loved, I had forgotten that I use to watch most Sundays years ago. This nature scene was timely as just yesterday I was researching cranberry bogs for an activity on a Leaf Peeping trip.

I know it's a good show when DH sits down and joins me. It was fun thinking of a larger GW group enjoying the show "together". I think I have to go hunt down some sliders for lunch! Christine

I loved the cranberry bog. I wonder what its like to be a cranberry farmer.
And since I'm single and have trouble cooking for one I'm definately looking for that book.
And Alton Brown - so nice to see him featured.
