Antenna TV's Sunday Specials of Benson, Silver Spoons; Dave Season 3 Finale Free on YouTube
Antenna TV is bringing everyone two Sunday Specials this summer! The first is on Sunday, July 9, 2023 from 8am-8pm and it will be a Sunday Special of Benson. Then on Sunday, August 6, 2023 from 8am-8pm, Antenna TV presents a Sunday Special of Silver Spoons.
Benson regularly airs on Antenna TV Mon-Fri 3am ET | 12am PT and Sun 3pm ET | 12pm PT. Robert Guillaume stars as Benson DuBois, in this spinoff of the hit series Soap. Benson is head of the household at the Governor’s mansion and uses his sharp wit and quick thinking to help the Governor on several issues, bailing him out of some tight spots. With aspirations of his own, Benson works his way up the ladder to run for office and earn his own political career. In 1985, Robert Guillaume won the Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series for his work on Benson.
Silver Spoons regularly airs on Antenna TV Saturdays 5pm ET | 2pm PT. Edward Stratton owns a toy company and is essentially an overgrown child living in a mansion full of toys, arcade games and a train that runs right through the living room. Edward didn’t know he was a father until his young son Ricky, from a previous marriage, shows up at his home, ready to move in. As these two get to know each other, Edward works on being more mature while Ricky leans to lighten up and have more fun while he’s still young. Silver Spoons starred Ricky Schroder, Joel Higgins and Erin Gray.
The season three finale of FX's Dave has been released in its entirety on YouTube since Friday (June 23) at 3 p.m. ET / 12 p.m. PT. It aired on TV last month on FX and the buzz is still going! The unforgettable episode of the comedy starring rapper and comedian Dave Burd features the surprise guest stars Rachel McAdams, Drake and another very special guest star in the finale of a season that The Hollywood Reporter's Daniel Fienberg called "episode for episode, the show's third season was as good as any series on TV this spring... . " The full episode can be viewed here.
The entire 10-episode third season of Dave is currently streaming on Hulu. In season 3, Dave is headlining his first-ever tour, and looking for love along the way. But as he and the gang crisscross America, they discover firsthand how diverse the cultural landscape of the United States really is - and how often fame puts pressure on love and friendship. Dave stars Dave Burd as "Dave" (also Co-Creator, Executive Producer and Writer); GaTa as "GaTa;" Andrew Santino as "Mike;" Taylor Misiak as "Ally;" Travis Bennett as "Elz" and Christine Ko as "Emma."
