Don't look just to the rainbow or the evening schedule; it's St. Patrick's Day all day long, though mind you, it's not all courting in the kitchen and drinking a pint down at the pub.
And be sure to catch (or at least DVR) Odd Man Out. You'll never forget it. You'll also need that St. Patrick's Day drink afterwards...
