Reminder! "K-Ville" makes TV debut tomorrow on Fox

Hey! Just a reminder..... "K-Ville" will make its television debut tomorrow night on Fox. Friends are getting together for a watch party. A little gumbo, jambalaya, po-boys and a tv show set in New Orleans! I have a feeling that I'll be spending a lot of time looking at what is BEHIND the actors ~ trying to see where they are in NOLA, recognizing buildings (people?) in the background. :) New Orleans is the most important "character" for me in Kville.
