Q: Did I miss “The People’s Choice Awards”? I thought they were in early January. I don’t recall seeing any ads for the show.
A: The awards are now in a new location — E! — after more than 40 years on CBS. CBS traditionally aired the show in January, but E!'s first telecast of the awards was in November. Still, if you really need to see a show that called “The Spy Who Dumped Me” the best comedy of 2018, you can see the entire program streaming at eonline.com.
Q: I’m taking this opportunity to ask you about “Child Support.” I used to love watching it, but it hasn’t aired for quite some time. I hope this interesting show is returning because I miss seeing those “smart kids.” They make me laugh.
A: The ABC game show has completed its 10-episode second season. No word yet on a third.
