Summer is here! Well, at least summer TV is. Tlc has a whole new batch of shows, as well as some returning favorites, like 'Cake Boss.' And who better to give me the scoop on season 3 than Buddy Valastro himself: "It's gonna be hot!"
I also chat with chef John Besh, of 'Next Iron Chef' and 'Top Chef Masters' fame. He's bringing a makeover twist to the traditional cooking show with 'Inedible to Incredible,' where he'll teach home cooks-in-need how to be more comfortable and confident in the kitchen. Then I catch up with 'One Big Happy Family''s Amber Coles who has lost some weight since season 1 and is growing up fast.
