MONDAY (4/14)
- Bones (FOX, 8pm): New episode. “When a motorcycle racer’s remains are discovered in a national park, Brennan and Booth hunt for his killer.” I hear this is a great show. I just wish Angel wasn’t flirting with a new woman.
- One Tree Hill (CW, 9pm): New episode. “Lucas tries to deal with being left at the altar.” He’ll find comfort in the arms of a young blonde thing later.
- Rules of Engagement (CBS, 9:30pm): New episode. “Adam and Jennifer go on a vacation with Jeff and Audrey, but first they have to endure a time share sales pitch.” What do I get if I endure the show?
- Medium (NBC, 10pm): “Kelly Preston guest stars as venture capitalist Meghan Doyle, who strikes up a professional and personal connection with Joe.” Anjelica Huston, Rosanna Arquette and now Kelly Preston. Is this the Lifetime channel?
- American Idol (FOX, 8pm): The remaining contestants belt out their best Mariah Carey tonight. Do a shot every time Randy Jackson references his work with the diva.
- Deadliest Catch (Discovery, 9pm): Season Four premiere. “The crab-fishing fleet prepares to sail into the Bering Sea after some crucial repairs are made on the Northwestern.” Hey - Jack on Men in Trees went into the Bering Sea too! Oh, this is real.
- Law & Order: SVU (NBC, 10pm): New episode. “Benson poses as a prison inmate to expose a corrupt guard suspected of stealing evidence in a rape case.” Maybe Stabler should give her a few stories on how he survived Oz. Eh, maybe not.
- Work Out (Bravo, 11pm): Season Three premiere. “Fitness maven Jackie Warner has a new girlfriend, which triggers Rebecca’s downward spin into jealousy.” A jealous and well-toned woman is a scary thing.
WEDNESDAY (4/16)
- Democratic Presidential Debate (ABC, 8pm): “Clinton and Obama meet in a debate at the debate at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia.” I’m sure comparisons between Idol and the presidential race will fill the media come Thursday.
- America’s Next Top Model (CW, 8pm): “One contestant panics when she loses her travel documents.” There’s nothing like some good sabotage to spice up the show a bit.
- Back to You (FOX, 8:30pm): New episode. “Kelly tries to deny the assertion that she’s dating a rival anchor because he looks like a younger version of Chuck.” Why can’t anyone understand it was all about the ratings?
- Real World: Hollywood (MTV, 10pm): Season Twenty premiere. You know you’re getting old when the only cast members you remember are shut out at the Real World Awards.
THURSDAY (4/17)
- Smallville (CW, 8pm): “A death rocks Smallville.” Why mince words? It’s a must watch!
- The Office (NBC, 9pm): “Michael grows obsessed with a model posing in a picture in an office-supply catalog.” I guess that’s better than his crazy candle chick, right?
- Scrubs (NBC, 9:30): “J.D. and Turk fret over their masculinity.” Huh? What isn’t masculine about Chocolate Bear and Vanilla Bear?
- Eli Stone (ABC, 10pm): Season finale. “Eli has surgery to remove his brain aneurysm, but when the procedure causes complications, Nathan is left with a difficult decision about his brother’s future.” One wrong move and Eli will be hearing “Last Christmas” on an endless loop.
FRIDAY (4/18)
- Duel (ABC, 9pm): If a show needs to have its instructions detailed on its website, it’s probably too much trouble to watch.
- Canterbury’s Law (FOX, 9pm): Season finale. “Elizabeth’s defense of an admitted rapist forces her to straddle a rigid personal boundary.” I’ve got to hand it to Marguilies. I never thought her show would make it this far.
- The Ultimate Coyote Ugly Search (CMT, 10pm): “The final four direct their own photo shoots, with the winner receiving a makeover.” Shouldn’t the loser be the one getting the extra help?
SUNDAY (4/20)
- Oprah’s Big Give (ABC, 8pm): “The contestants are given one more charitable project - but no money with which to accomplish it. Jennifer Aniston makes an appearance.” Celebrity matchmaking could be considered charitable, right?
- Desperate Housewives (ABC, 9pm): “Bree and Katherine decide to join forces to plan the Founder’s Day Ball.” This is bound to be one well-organized disaster.
- Sweet Nothing in My Ear (CBS, 9pm): “Jeff Daniels and Marlee Matlin star as parents who come to a critical moment in their marriage when they disagree over whether their deaf child should have an operation that could restore partial hearing.” The last time I saw Matlin act, she was fighting with Joy on My Name is Earl. That woman’s talent is limitless.
- Brothers & Sisters (ABC, 10pm): New episode. “A surprising turn in the presidential campaign prompts a life-changing moment for Kitty and Robert.” Oh, please let it be a name change for the former.
