Ryan Seacrest hosts “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve With Ryan Seacrest“ Tuesday on ABC.
BY JAY BOBBIN
It’s never just another New Year’s Eve for Ryan Seacrest.
The “Live With Kelly and Ryan” co-host moonlights from his day job – actually, jobs, also counting his nationally broadcast radio program – to be on duty in New York’s Times Square for the 15th time as “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve With Ryan Seacrest” has its traditional ABC airing Tuesday, Dec. 31. As usual, the special welcoming 2020 begins in primetime and continues in late-night, with Lucy Hale (of The CW ’s upcoming “Katy Keene”) succeeding Jenny McCarthy as Seacrest’s on-site co-host.
Recent “Pose” Emmy winner Billy Porter will join the festivities from New Orleans (where Hale was based for the show previously), presiding over a talent lineup led by Sheryl Crow and Usher. The Hollywood “party” remains part of the event, guided by returnee Ciara with Kelsea Ballerini, Green Day, Paula Abdul, Dan + Shay and Salt-N-Pepa also among those performing. Country star Jessie James Decker will reveal the new year’s first Powerball millionaire just after midnight on the East Coast.
“It’s bigger this year,” Seacrest confirms. “When I started doing the show with Dick (Clark), there were not many if any live performances in Times Square. It started to grow, and the artists saw it, and they would come on
at the end of a big year And then we grew the Hollywood party, and then we started in New Orleans as well, which has become its own universe of a party. I think for the first time, we’ve got it on a scale that needs other people to help me carry it all night.”
Jenny McCarthy long held that job, and Seacrest reports that “she had worked on New Year’s Eve for so many years, she’s looking forward to having a night relaxing (likely with husband Donnie Wahlberg). You forget what it’s like for the rest of the world because you’re on your feet all night, but Lucy did a great job in New Orleans, so we’re going to bring her up to New York.
“And Billy Porter, I am such a massive fan of,” adds Seacrest. “Looking at the skill set and the talent that he has, I was so hoping I would get the phone call that this was a green light for him.”
Also now taping for the third season of ABC’s incarnation of “American Idol,” which premieres Feb. 16, Seacrest appreciates using his vast radio experience on New Year’s Eve: “When I introduce the songs the performers are doing, I know exactly how long I can talk before the vocal starts. I’m so used to playing the same record on the radio, it makes it a little more seamless for me. ”
Jasmine Roth, recently seen on “A Very Brady Renovation: Holiday Edition” on HGTV
“I know this is kind of nerdy, but I do watch a lot of HGTV (laughs). So I’m loving ‘Proper ty Brothers: Forever Home.’ They’re doing a really good job with that show I watch a ton of Food Network, so I love ‘Beat Bobby Flay ’ That’s just great. I love ‘Chopped.’ And then I’m watching the final season of ‘Modern Family’ because I’ve loved ‘Modern Family’ since day one. ”
Toby Stephens of “Lost in Space” on Netflix
“I’ve actually just been watching the second season of ‘Mind Hunter ’ ”
Mina of “Lost Space” Netflix
Ingrid Nilsen of “Cooking With Pride” on Facebook Watch
“Well, I just star ted watching ‘Catherine the Great’ on HBO and that is kind of the main thing that I’m watching right now ”
“I just episode ‘Euphoria on finishing few tonight. good is raving a ver y I’m also lot of and I ‘Final a Netflix – it’s fantastic. talented all over that go of head it makes ever y

Hungover, New Year ’s Eve reveler? Log
on for these remedies
It’s the day after New Year’s Eve and you’re coping with the aftereffects of overcelebrating the arrival of 2020.
You’re hungover, to put it plainly, and you just want to feel better. Well, you should have thought of that last night before you put in your Olympiccaliber drinking performance. But here you are, dehydrated, with head pounding and the energy level of a dead battery, wanting to make it all go away
You might want to boot up the laptop and check out the plethora of video advice on hangover cures and remedies on the internet, which may or may not soothe your discomfort but will at least distract you from it for a few moments. Provided you have the strength.
From AsapSCIENCE comes “The Scientific Hangover Cure” (https://www.youtube.com/ watch?vSoo4f6e1zCs), which recommends fatty foods and carbs before drinking, water before, during and after and sticking to lighter-colored spirits such as white wine, vodka and gin. And don’t forget the aspirin before bed.
If you have deep pockets or you’re just really desperate to get through this, CNBC’s Jane Wells played guinea pig to try “The $225 Hangover Cure” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?vSoo4f6e1zCs), a Las Vegas anesthesiologist’s proprietary intravenous cocktail of vitamins, painkillers, anti-nausea meds and other ingredients designed to replenish what the drinking took away The verdict: It works. The bad news: You have to go to Vegas to get it.
Less pricey is GQue BBQ’s “Hangover Cure –This Drink Will Help You” (https://www.youtube.
Jane Wells
com/watch?voXkCMPG-7PA), a concoction of orange and pineapple juice, cream of coconut and strawberry rum, served in a hollowed-out pineapple and garnished with fresh nutmeg – which sounds dangerously close to a pina colada. And if the hair of the dog isn’t your thing, there is a virgin version sans booze.
Those with a taste for the exotic should check out BuzzFeedVideo’s “Hungover People Try Asian Hangover Cures” (https://www.youtube.com/ watch?vpgRyIWQIhA4), among them ginseng tea, green tea, congee, coconut water and something called a “hangover stew,” a melange of vegetables, meats, kimchee, spices and other ingredients. They gave it rave reviews but no word on whether it actually worked.
8:00 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives Nashville hot chicken; wagyu brisket.
8:30 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives Peruvian sandwich; fresh spin on tacos.
9:00 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives Juneau, Alaska; Richmond, Va
9:30 p.m. FOOD Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives Italian spot with righteous ravioli.

Shut up and dance! That appears to be the mantra for this new dating series hosted by actress and dancer Jenna Dewan (“The Resident”), in which a blind date starts out with dance lessons for some perfect strangers. Each person is taught half of a dance routine, then taken to a romantic location where, without saying a word, they perform the dance twice, once with each of two different partners. A full date follows with whichever partner provides the better connection.
9 p.m. on USA Dare Me
Adapted from a bestselling novel by Megan Abbott, who serves as writer and executive producer here, this new drama explores teen angst and power dynamics in the cutthroat world of high-school cheerleading.

Lost in the Wild Adventures that take an unexpected turn for the worst is the unifying theme of this new eightepisode docu-series featuring veteran explorer J.J. Kelley and journalist Kinga Philipps, who retrace each ill-fated journey to find some answers. In the series premiere, “Hike Into Hell,” Kelley and Philipps try to solve the mystery of what happened to Dutch tourists Lisanne Froon and Kris Kremers, who vanished in 2014 while hiking on a trail in Panama. Months later, their belongings are found, along with a few bones.

Movie: Spider-Man: Homecoming
He first played Peter Parker and his superhero alter-ego SpiderMan a year earlier in “Captain America: Civil War,” but this 2017 action-adventure film wiped out any lingering doubts as to whether British actor Tom Holland was up to claiming the main spotlight as the webbed one, earning glowing reviews and driving his movie to become the fifth highest-grossing film of its year and the second most successful Spider-Man movie ever. Michael Keaton plays arms trafficker Adrian Toomes, the film’s chief baddie.

Movie: Her Smell Chameleon-like actress Elisabeth Moss (“Mad Men,” “The Handmaid’s Tale”) transforms herself again for writer-director Alex Ross Perry in his 2018 drama, which casts the actress as hard-living fictional rock star Becky Something, whose band skyrockets to dazzling but brief fame before her wildly self-destructive behavior tears the group apart. The strong ensemble also includes Cara Delevingne, Agyness Deyn, Gayle Rankin, Dan Stevens, Virginia Madsen, Amber Heard and Eric Stoltz.

Movie: Pavarotti
U2 front man Bono narrates Ron Howard’s 2019 documentary celebrating another vocal superstar, the sweet-voiced, larger-than-life tenor Luciano Pavarotti, who dominated and even personified opera for a generation of classical music lovers. His ability to hit high C near the top of the tenor range multiple times during the course of an aria helped earn him the moniker “King of the High C’s.” Pavarotti was a favored co-star of coloratura soprano Joan Sutherland and also joined colleagues Placido Domingo and Jose Carreras in a series of concerts as The Three Tenors.

Most people probably would agree with the suggestion that 2019 was a pretty intense year, especially in terms of political developments, but thankfully “Today” co-hosts Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager employ a light touch as they page through the year’s headlines in this new two-hour year-end special. Expect moments of undeniable poignancy, mixed with exhilarating stories of triumph (see: gymnast Simone Biles, among others). There also will be plenty of laughs, courtesy of such celebrity guests as Kristen Bell.

“Doctor Who” fans have been waiting for a year for their favorite series to return, but executive producer and showrunner Chris Chibnall promises them that their patience will be rewarded by “Skyfall,” the first of a two-part Season 12 premiere. In fact, Chibnall says, this could be the biggest “Doctor Who” ever, in terms of the sheer scope of the production and international locations used. What else? Cybermen, lots of them, all deadlier than ever. Jodie Whittaker, Bradley Walsh, Mandip Gill and Tosin Cole star; Stephen Fry guest stars.

The Paley Center Salutes Law & Order: SVU
With its current season — the show’s 21st — “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” has become the longest-running primetime liveaction series in television history, which certainly merits a celebratory special like this one-hour presentation. Series creator and executive producer Dick Wolf joins cast members Mariska Hargitay (Lt. Olivia Benson), Ice-T (Sgt. Odafin Tutuola), Kelli Giddish (Detective Amanda Rollins) and Peter Scanavino (Detective Sonny Carisi) to reflect on this milestone.

Deputy
When the sheriff of Los Angeles County dies, a legal quirk dating back to the days of the Old West thrusts into the job an unlikely successor: Bill Hollister (Stephen Dorff), a fifth-generation lawman who’s perfectly at ease taking down bad guys, but woefully illsuited to navigating the complex politics of his Southern California turf. Writer and executive producer Will Beall (“Aquaman”) penned the pilot for this new police drama mixed with Wild West spirit. Yara Martinez and Brian Van Holt costar.
