Big Medicine Returns TONIGHT!
I just got this email from Bariatric Advantage.
Tune in tonight, Wednesday, July 16, at 10PM Eastern / 9PM Central to Discovery Health for the return of BIG MEDICINE!
We are asking that you specifically watch the show tonight, and pass this along to anyone that may be interested in the show, as the ratings earned tonight will play a big part in whether or not there is a Season Three!
The weight-loss surgery community and the public as a whole continue to benefit from the education and up-close stories provided by BIG MEDICINE. Season Three will showcase a whole new cast of characters and a new, state-of-the-art clinic to act as a fresh backdrop for the compelling patient stories of victorious transformation and overcoming of personal demons.

Jr. will be mine. I'll be watching. My PCP said they had the best practice in Houston and was glad I was going to use them.

 Discovery Health is in one of the premium packages for our cable company and we don't get it.

You have to look at your cable company's line up - it's not on the regular Discovery Channel, it's on Discovery Health. I was hopin too, but when I looked at the line up I realized ours is up in the premium channels.
