But, Wait! What's On TV Tonight? Sat., Oct. 18th: Vanilla Ice & HARRY POTTER!

I know for BroadwayWorld's readership, the right move would have been for me to put a picture of Daniel Radcliffe on this article, but you've all seen that thousands of times before. As a journalist, I feel it is my duty to show you a picture of Vanilla Ice sewing pants with an Amish woman. You're welcome. "Good night, and good luck." The rest of Saturday's "But, Wait! What's On TV Tonight?" picks aren't nearly as crazy, but there is something for everyone in them; from an iconic film series, to a touching 2014 Best Picture nominee, to sports... So, what will you be watching tonight?

BWW TV World will bring you a handful of picks from across the TV landscape. So, if you have nothing to do each night, check in with us, and we will tell you the best ways to spend your primetime hours.

For all of the latest goings on in the world of pop culture, check out BUT, WAIT! WHAT? from Chief TV Critic Matt Tamanini here.

Saturday, October 18th

All times are Eastern

HARRY POTTER Marathon | 12:00-10:00pm | ABC Family
HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE, HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS, PARTS I & II
By: Matt Tamanini | @BWWMatt

I know that I am going to lose a lot of credibility in the eyes of some people by saying this, but I have never seen a HARRY POTTER movie before. I was 20 years old when the first film was released, and was obviously way too cool for kids movies. Then when it actually became cool to like HARRY POTTER, I was too much of a contrarian to give in and binge-watch them. So, while I will not be watching a single second of this mini-marathon, congrats to all the cool kids that will be!

HER | 6:50-9:00pm | Cinemax

Last year was a pretty strong movie awards season, with AMERICAN HUSTLE, 12 YEARS A SLAVE, GRAVITY, DALLAS BUYERS CLUB, and many others, but no film fascinated me quite like HER. Spike Jonze is one of our most gifted and insightful filmmakers. His movies serve both as celebrations of who we are as individuals, and as warnings to what we could become. With an incredible cast of Joaquin Phoenix, Kristen Wiig, Amy Adams, Chris Pratt, Bill Hader, Olivia Wilde, Rooney Mara, and the sultry voice of Scarlett Johansson, the plot is as compelling as it is disturbing; in the not so distant future, operating systems are so advanced, so intelligent, so human that people are falling in love with them. Imagine being in a committed relationship with Siri. While the setup seems bizarre, the story is both touching and heart-breaking. If you haven't seen it, you really kind of have to.

College Football: No. 5 Notre Dame @ No. 2 Florida State | 8:00-11:30pm | ABC
By: Matt Tamanini | @BWWMatt

While many of you might not care about college football, surely this week you have heard about the mounting troubles for reigning Heisman Trophy winner and National Champion Jameis Winston. The Florida State quarterback is facing four charges that he violated university policies in a sexual assault in December 2012, and this week there were reports that he signed nearly 2,000 autographs for memorabilia dealers, and circumstantial evidence suggests that he was paid to do so. Despite these issues (and numerous others), Winston will lead the Seminoles against the Fighting Irish in this Top-5 battle. The winner will have an inside-track to College Football's first-evet playoff.

VANILLA ICE GOES AMISH | 10:00-10:30pm | DIY
By: Dylan Siegman | @Dsiggy15

Yeah, you read that title correctly - Vanilla Ice, known for songs such as Ice Ice Baby and Too Cold is giving up life's luxuries to go live on an Amish farm. If this isn't the weirdest TV premise, I don't really know what is. Supposedly he's now known for his home improvement abilities (that's news to me) so he's going to learn the lost art form of Amish Craftsmanship. I just want to know if he's going to grow his chin beard out.
