TX Time: 21h00
Genre: Reality
If you want surgery and don't qualify for general anesthesia, or just have fears about general anesthesia, there's one doctor you can rely on and that's Dr. Meegan Gruber.
Dr. Gruber has been a practicing board certified plastic surgeon for 20 years.
She's developed her own techniques for numbing, calming, and treating patients from all walks of life in order to perform life changing surgeries... all while the patients are completely awake.
From patients who just want facelifts to look a little younger to people who need larger surgeries so they can function in their normal lives, Dr. Gruber can do it all.
Some patients request mirrors to watch, some order take-out while still on the table, and some video call their loved ones to keep them up to date.
One thing is for sure... anything can happen.
With the help of her surgical staff, watch up close as Dr. Gruber cuts, scrapes and laughs with her patients while they are wide awake during surgery.
In the series premiere, "Derrick Bares His Man Boobs": Derrick wants to remove his man boobs, and Megan needs surgery on her arms.
William Lee Martin: Standing in the Middle
Channel: S3
TX Time: 21h00
Genre: Comedy, Special
With his signature cowboy hat, boots and Texas drawl, and drawing from real-life experiences, Martin's vibrant routine reflects life as a husband, father and friend.
But no matter the topic, Martin's humour is occasionally laced with sarcasm and innuendo, but without the overt adult language prevalent with so many in today's comedy landscape.
In this special, the Texas comedian talks about life, being married, raising his five kids, and surviving in the middle of an America that is always changing.
