"It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" is on ABC at 8pm tonight
It's dance night again and we're asking you if you care. We want to hear from the lovers and the haters: should we keep listing new episodes of "So You Think You Can Dance" and "Dancing With The Stars" in our schedule or can we save that space for something else? 2 contestants from each show will be eliminated tonight BTW.

TNT is again stepping up to the plate by funding a pilot to be executive produced by George Clooney. The show, titled (for now) "Delta Blues", is about a Memphis cop who moonlights as an Elvis impersonator and lives with his mother.

"Parks and Recreation" on NBC on Thursday at 8:30pm - Ann (Rashida Jones) struggles to make her Halloween party fun, and gets help from an unlikely source, perhaps the "Mad Men Halloween Guide"?.
