TV Tonight Monday September 14, 2009

Tonight is The Jay Leno Show's debut, and we get to find out if NBC made the right decision. (Personally, I think that he should still be the host of the Tonight Show.) And of course one of his first guests is the idiot Kanye West.

House repeats the two episode finale from last season in which House sees dead people, and has hallucinatory sex.

Finally, Gossip Girl returns with its season premier. Let the college beer pong games begin!

I don't believe they did that.

(And for those wondering, the song at the end was Pete Yorn's "Lose You")

Would you believe that just about everything on tonight is new and looks really good? (With the exception of ABC which has The Bachelor and True Beauty - I guess they can't all be winners.)

Hmmmm... I wonder if tonight's season finale of Superstars of Dance will be the SERIES finale. (It's on NBC, so probably.)

My Pick tonight is House - with Cameron (remember her?) working as House's boss so Cuddy can have some quality time with her foster baby. (Hey, FOX, how about giving us fans some quality time with Chase, too? He is, after all, still named in the opening credits.)

House finally has an episode worth watching (the house call episode with Chase and Cameron) while NCIS continues the storyline from last season's finale - Agent Lee's betrayal. NCIS has been trumping House this year for me, though.

I haven't been watching Fringe on FOX since about the second or third episode. This show just isn't doing much for me.

CBS

The CW brings back Beverly Hills 90210, now simply 90210. I never watched the original, and I can't think of any reason I'll be watching this show. (CW, m, two hour special.)

On NBC, another ten acts perform for America on America's Got Talent. (m or 9pm depending on your areas coverage of the Republican National Convention, NBC, two hours.) It's followed by a Dateline NBC.

As bad as the Bones season finale was, the House season finale was 100 times better. The reason: House gave us character moments that were real.

The fourth season premier of House. And he's alone. (Thus the episode title.)

I for one am glad they switched things up a bit this year. Although I liked the relationships House had with Chase, Foreman and Cameron, new blood was needed to keep things interesting. (As long as the show doesn't turn into House Anatomy, that is.)

But... the patient was saved by the same method that's been used since the begging of the series. After a number of failed attempts, House gets his inspiration for a cure from some third party or something he read. It's almost always the same.

Rumor is that four new characters will be added to the cast of Fox's House M.D. next season. The four will be working with House.

But we'll also be seeing his former cast members. Chase, Cameron, and Foreman will be back, too.

So there'll be House and the new four, plus Chase, Cameron, and Foreman, plus Cuddy and Wilson. Nine principle actors on the show.

My biggest fear now is that the show will turn into Grey's Anatomy. Like, seriously.
