TV Junkie: Monday's Picks
The only thing this week means to me is that It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia premieres on Thursday. I've seen some previews and goddam if that shit isn't funny.
9:00pm Dateline NBC - Sensationalist exploitation of the Connecticut home invasion by 2 ex-cons that left a woman and her 2 daughters dead and her husband badly beaten.
10:00pm Saving Grace TNT - For lack of anything better (Dr. 90210 anyone??) I guess the only choice is to watch some MILFY Holly Hunter.
11:35pm Late Show With David Letterman CBS - Jodie Foster
12:35am Late Night With Conan O'Brien NBC - Paul Giamatti pushes Shoot 'em Up; Alyson Hannigan pushes new season of How I Met Your Mother; Bad Religion performs!
