Time to say a bunch of goodbyes again this week as a whole slew of shows shutter for the season. SUNDAY “Desperate Housewives” (9 p.m., ABC) ends its eight-season run tonight as the women of Wisteria Lane bid farewell for good. In tonight’s episode, Bree is on trial for murder, [...]
This week is a busy one for season finales, so here’s a look at some shows that are ending (for now): SUNDAY “The Amazing Race” (8 p.m., CBS) ends with a two-hour finale. MONDAY Martha Stewart guest-stars on “2 Broke Girls,” (8 p.m., CBS) as Max and Caroline try to [...]
After a few weeks of high-profile returns and new-series debuts, I can't find much to get excited about this week, other than new episodes of all the old stand-bys, and the season finale of "The Good Wife"... which only means I'll have to wait months before it's back. Nevertheless, here's [...]
I’m beginning to think this weekly post should be called watch what’s on Sunday, since that seems to be when many of the best shows are on. Some shows to look for this week: SUNDAY After two successful sitcoms, Julia Louis-Dreyfus goes for a third with “Veep” (9 p.m., HBO). [...]
SUNDAY As “Desperate Housewives” takes a break leading up to its final episodes, ABC airs back-to-back episodes of its new comedy “GCB” (9 p.m.) On Showtime, not one, not two, but THREE series return tonight: “Nurse Jackie” (9 p.m.), “The Big C” (9:30 p.m.) and “The Borgias” (10 p.m.). TUESDAY [...]
SUNDAY “Game of Thrones” (9 p.m., HBO) and “The Killing” (8 p.m., AMC) both return tonight for their second seasons. “Game of Thrones” is the kind of show you watch with lights off, curtains drawn and your cellphone stowed. Even the opening credits need to be watched, since they help [...]
For me, this week is more about counting down… only seven days until the premiere of “Game of Thrones” on HBO. I'll be watching the usual new episodes of "New Girl," "Community," etc... But if you want something a little different: SUNDAY The critically acclaimed “Mad Men” returns to AMC [...]
Need a break from March Madness? Here are a few options. (If you’re a true NCAA basketball fan, though, you probably won’t have time to watch anything else this week.) SUNDAY “The Walking Dead” ends its second season tonight on AMC. It’s a great time to catch up since AMC [...]
SUNDAY With “Desperate Housewives” ending this season, ABC hopes to launch a new age of camp and catfights with “GCB” (10 p.m.) immediately following “Housewives.” After a few of life’s hard knocks, a former mean girl (Leslie Bibb) returns to Dallas to live with her mom (Annie Potts), where she [...]
SUNDAY Springfield is finally fed up, and the town banishes Homer and clan as “The Simpsons” marks its 500th episode (8 p.m., Fox). (As one of the longest-running shows ever, it's a wonder the town put up with Homer and Bart this long.) Also Sunday, the 20th (!) season of [...]
So… you have a week to kill until the Super Bowl. What’s on TV between now and then? Sun., Jan. 29: “Undercover Boss” (8 p.m. CBS): Grab a glass of wine and the remote… the long-awaited (in Sonoma County at least) episode featuring Kendall Jackson’s president, Rick Tigner, airs Sunday. [...]
Turn off your brain, grab the remote, prop up your feet, work a good butt groove into the couch and enjoy some TV time. You've earned it.
