TV Junkie: ABC on Hulu; TdF Live on Versus at 5:30am

Thankfully some late night is back with new shows (see the listings) in an otherwise very dull week. Don't forget that the live broadcast of the Tour de France starts at 5:30am on Versus so set your Tivos - the live show is infinitely better than the obnoxiously repackaged evening edition. As of today's results it looks like we've got a real race on our hands already!
