MONDAY 12/8)- A Charlie Brown Christmas (ABC, 8pm): “The gang mounts a holiday pageant as Charlie Brown bemoans Yuletide commercialism.” Sorry, Charlie. Not much has changed since 1965.
- Boston Legal (ABC, 9pm): Series finale. “Financial problems may force Crane Poole & Schmidt to be put up for sale.” If the economy keeps going the way it’s going, that might not be the only thing ABC has up for sale.
- Two and a Half Men (CBS, 9pm): “Alan considers early retirement when Evelyn offers to foot the bill for Jake’s college education.” After looking at his latest 401K statement, he then realizes that retirement won’t come anytime soon.
- The Hills (MTV, 10pm): “Whitney interviews for a job in New York City.” Top resume skill: Able to effectively communicate in short sentences.

MONDAY 12/1)- Shrek the Halls (ABC, 8pm): Hopefully this Mike Myers laugher will help us all forget The Love Guru.
- Inside the Actor’s Studio (Bravo, 8pm): “Daniel Radcliffe, star of the Harry Potter film franchise, charts his career journey.” I’m not sure I want to see James Lipton enthusiastically talking about Radcliffe’s nude Broadway performance.
- Heroes (NBC, 9pm): “Ando, Sam and Frack try to restore Hiro’s memory with a comic book.” Any person trying to follow this series should be given an instruction manual.
- Boston Legal (ABC, 10pm): “When Denny receives bad news about the state of his Alzheimer’s, Alan goes before the Massachusetts Supreme Court to plead for access to an experimental drug that can help his condition.” Alzheimers? Maybe Shatner simply forgot why George Takei dislikes him so.

MONDAY (11/24)- Dancing with the Stars (ABC, 8pm): After ten weeks, it all ends tonight. Sadly, I can’t even remember the names of the first two eliminated.
- Samantha Who? (ABC, 9:30): “Sam invites boyfriend Owen (James Tupper) for dinner to meet her parents, but Owen and Howard don’t hit it off.” Seems Howard doesn’t approve of his relationship with Anne Heche either.
- Valkyrie: The Plot to Kill Hitler (History, 10pm): “Recalling Operation Valkyrie, a failed plot devised by German officers to assassinate Adolf Hitler.” By choosing this documentary over the Tom Cruise version, you’ll be able to save a few more bucks for Christmas.
- The Hills (MTV, 10pm): “Audrina confronts Lauren and Justin after rumors circulate that the two hooked up.” By “confront,” we mean Audrina has them refer to the television interviews she’s conducted on the topic.

Will Real Housewives’ Kim Zolciak Really Make an Album?
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Bravo, Cable, Gossip, Video,
Anyone with a pair of ears - or any set of standards - knows one thing: Kim Zolciak can’t sing. Unfortunately, that’s something the delusional star of The Real Housewives of Atlanta refuses to believe.
Despite her disastrous recording session with producer Dallas Austin - and her cringe-inducing lesson with a vocal coach (that can be seen above) - Zolciak insists her career is still a go. In an interview with Essence magazine, the woman with the “God-given talent” warned us to be on the lookout for her upcoming single.
My first song, “Tight Rope,” will be out the first week in January, but I’m not sure when the album will be coming out. [Dallas Austin] wrote and produced it. He originally sent me three but I fell in love with the beat and lyrics. The song is about walking a tight rope with somebody. It [speaks] to my personal life and my relationship and just life in general. It definitely applies to my life, but after seeing that footage on the show where it looks like I can’t sing! I guess it makes for good television but it looked awful to me. People will just have to wait for my album to see the deal.

MONDAY (11/17)- Gossip Girl (CW, 8pm): “Cyrus (Wallace Shawn) implements changes to the Waldorf Thanksgiving traditions, which upsets Blair.” The introduction of iocane powder is always a controversial decision.
- Jon & Kate Plus 8 (TLC, 9pm): “Jon and Kate renew their vows in an intimate Hawaiian ceremony.” Wait a second - that wedding hasn’t happened yet? They’ve been milking that cow for weeks!
- Prison Break (FOX, 9pm): “T-Bag’s boss at GATE makes him a tempting offer.” Please don’t let it be a season renewal.
- My Own Worst Enemy (NBC, 10pm): “Edward makes a risky deal with a KGB agent to find information on his past.” Edward better hurry up. He only has a few chances left to get it all figured out.

MONDAY (11/10)
- Chuck (NBC, 8pm): “Chuck chances upon his ex-flame (Jordana Brewster) and embellishes his status in life to impress her.” We’re talking about a girl who starred in D.E.B.S.. He shouldn’t try too hard.
- Prison Break (FOX, 9pm): “Gretchen gives Michael the rest of the bird book, but he suffers another seizure after deciphering it.” That pretty much sums up my feelings about bird books as well.
- Samantha Who? (ABC, 9:30): “Sam is sentenced to community service, where she meets a troubled young woman (Mary-Kate Olsen) and decides to help turn her life around.” Sam has now become the better-looking version of Earl Hickey.
- 17 Kids and Counting (TLC, 10pm): “Jinger takes her driving test; the family celebrates Michelle’s birthday and responds to viewer questions.” Uhh, I have a question. Jinger? Seriously?

Dave Chappelle Scheduled to Make a Rare TV Appearance
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, Reality, Bravo, Gossip,
After abruptly leaving his popular Comedy Central show during the production of the third season, comedian Dave Chappelle has been very rarely heard from. He cropped up in comedy clubs and once on HBO before staging a marathon stand-up session at the famous Laugh Factory in Hollywood . The performance went on an amazing six hours and twelve minutes.
By his own admission, Chappelle has always put his stand-up comedy first. He reportedly grew so annoyed with an audience in Sacramento, California that he stormed off the stage when they repeatedly cried out his famous catchphrase from Chappelle’s Show. The incident occurred during the height of the show’s popularity, in the summer of 2004. After storming off the stage, Chappelle returned to say “the show is ruining my life” and to lambaste the audience.
Later, Chappelle mysteriously left his show to visit Africa. The trip gave rise to rumors of substance abuse, allegations Chappelle has denied.
Since his December, 2007 comedy stunt in Hollywood, Chappelle has remained off the radar. Until now.
Chappelle is scheduled to make his second appearance on Inside the Actors Studio (he also appeared in 2005). The episode (scheduled to air Novembe 10) will celebrate the 200th episode of the Bravo series and take up two solid hours of programming. For this special event, Chappelle will co-host along with James Lipton. The two will discuss famous Hollywood citizens such as Tom Hanks, Will Smith, Julia Roberts and Angelina Jolie.

- Saturday Night Live Presidential Bash 2008 (NBC, 9pm): “A ready-for-prime-time political skewering, featuring new material and a collection of politically-themed clips from the show’s archive.” This could be your last chance to laugh before you cry.
- First Class All the Way (Bravo, 9pm): Series premiere. “Sara whips up a high-end getaway to Paris and Monaco for a clique of privileged women, but there’s a bump in the road when a passport goes missing.” I just hate to see a privileged woman miss out on a trip.
- The Hills (MTV, 10pm): “Audrina moves out.” Haven’t we seen this episode already? Oh wait - we just saw it unfold in Us Weekly.

- My Own Worst Enemy (NBC, 10pm): “Edward’s trip to Mexico to gain intel on Russian weaponry doesn’t go as planned.” Nothing about this show is going as planned.
