TV Junkie: Wednesday
[The Junkie's been sick for a few days but we're back] LAist has some great coverage of the Project Runway finale tonight on BRAVO @ 10:00pm so I'm not even going to touch that. If you can't stand the fashion tension, you can always switch over to the L.A. County Board of Supervisors Meeting broadcast on KLCS and your tension will be released utterly.
If you follow the link you can see, there's plenty of 10:00pm options which is great when you have such a mega-finale and you don't want to watch up.
