Today - Wednesday
Lakers @ Magic (KCAL, 5:30 p.m.)
"Heroes" Marathon (SciFi, 7:00 p.m.) So maybe you heard this was a great series but you never really watched it, here's a chance to catch up and be in the now when it gets going again in the new year.
Celtics @ Clippers (PRIME, 7:30 p.m.)
"Arabesque" (TCM, 8:00 p.m.) Gregory Peck falls for a way hot Sophia Loren in this 1966 thriller
"Primetime" (ABC, 10:00 p.m.) Worrywort baiting episode - what would _you_ do in these provocative and tense situations?? What kind of _wrong_ decisions would you make? How messed up would your life be after you made these terrible decisions?
Late Night TV is all repeats with the exception of "Charlie Rose" @ 11:30 p.m. on PBS if you are at all interested in punishing yourself by watching an interview with Intel Chairman Craig Barrett, maybe you could pretend that Syd Barrett was being interviewed instead.
During these awful dead dreary doldrums of TV I've found myself watching everything from some hideous "Hilton Family" sponsored Figure Skating/Gymnastics Show to Celtic Woman on PBS. I've actually been forced to spend time with family and I resent it tremendously. What's the alternative? Buy some ridiculous satellite package so that I can watch Kyrgistani goat-dragging competitions live?
