On Tonight: Frosty the Snowman, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition and Starving Secrets with Tracey Gold

Friday, Dec. 9

Frosty the Snowman, 8 p.m., CBS

The classic. Slightly dated in all but the bullying aspect of the story. Here’s a little something to put you in the mood.

Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, 8 p.m., ABC

“The team helps build a home for the family of a teenager who lost his hand while trying to do work on their current house.” I could see where this might cause some problems.

Starving Secrets with Tracey Gold, 10 p.m., Lifetime

I don’t like those shows like Intervention and My Weird Addiction and Taboo. And I’m not sure if this is like those or if it is more along the lines of an episode of Dr. Oz. Tracey Gold is the actress from the sitcom Growing Pains who famously almost died from anorexia. In this, she tries to help those who suffer from eating disorders. Tonight, “A woman's husband reaches out to Tracey, seeking help for his anorexic wife; Tracey tries to help a woman with bulimia find a job so she can get treatment.”
