I’ll be the first to admit that I watch a lot of TV. Probably too much. But in my defense, a lot of the TV I watch is educational in nature. Specifically, I watch a lot of stuff on the Food Network and, even more specifically, I watch almost every episode of Unwrapped (even the really old ones that I’ve already seen eight times).
That’s why I was happy to discover, almost by accident, that What About Watermelon’s own watermelon expert, Chef Harry Schwartz, will be starring in an episode of Unwrapped that focuses on fruit. The episode will air on the Food Network on Tuesday, August 24 at 11:30 p.m. and again four hours later (for you night owls) on Wednesday, August 25 3:30 p.m.
Of course, Chef Harry will be talking about “all things watermelon,” according to the episode description. I should note that this particular episode of Unwrapped isn’t new – it originally aired in 2008 – but thanks to the miracle of repeats, Chef Harry and his encyclopedic knowledge of watermelon will live on forever!

I will set my DVR for this one! What a great time to rerun this segment as the summer has been so HOT and we are approaching the Labor Day weekend. I encourage all my fellow “bloggers” to watch this show. It is always fun to watch Chef Harry as he is full of energy and a walking and talking encyclopedia for watermelons!
This is definitely a DVR-able moment, Mark. I’ll try to stay up late to watch, but just in case I nod off, I’ll be sure to record it too!
