‘Girls’ offers a different bounty
What if you combined “The View” with “COPS”? You’d get a gritty law-enforcement procedural interrupted by female bonding, endless arguments, a constant fight for status within the group and a focus on female intuition, with a particular obsession over the location of the nearest bathroom.
All of these elements come together on “Bounty Girls Miami” (9 p.m., Court TV).
Jag is the Barbara Walters of the group. An 18-year veteran of the Sunshine Bail Bonds Agency, she has captured more than 7,000 fugitives.
Jag is also a mom who has a testy relationship with her 20-year-old daughter, Amanda.
The attractive but no-nonsense Jade operates as Jag’s driver and aide. Gloria is the computer whiz and the girliest girl on the team. Clyde rounds out the cast. Service in the Army, Marines and Air Force has brought tone to her voluptuous figure.
While other bounty-hunting shows put the emphasis on macho attitude and excessive testosterone, “Girls” is all business and all-woman. And that’s what makes it fun.
Part reality show, part “Fame” and all inspiration, the Oscar-nominated documentary short “Rehearsing a Dream” (7 p.m., Cinemax) spends a week at the Miami conference of the National Foundation for Advancement in the Arts. There, 160 high school students, considered the most gifted 17-year-old painters, dancers, actors, musicians, poets, filmmakers and photographers, gather to spend time with fellow nominees and receive inspiration.
