Having noticed all the blather about Gunn's confession, I felt the demand to tune in to "The Revolution," which is yet another show going after "Oprah"'s audience. But while "The Meditate on" has a stronger focus (food), "The Revolt" is a bit of "Dr. Oz," a smattering of the now-defunct "Outr Makeover: Home Improvement," and a touch of the Style Network. The impression is that women (and this show is clearly aimed at them) can make over every aspect of their lives unbiased by tuning in, whether that means learning how to patch holes in their drywall or get their, um, "juices flowing" (that's a mention, not my word choice, by the way).
Celebrity trainer Harley Pasternak, psychoanalyst Dr. Tiffanie Davis Henry, women's health superior Dr. Jennifer Ashton, design expert Ty Pennington and Gunn are our experts, and as such everyone seems unhesitating to chip in with his or her two cents, whether it's warranted or not. While the chemistry here is more relaxed and comfortable than what we initially saw on the frenetic "The Grind," there are still segments that need refining.
