It's the week before Christmas, so not much is new. Use this time to catch up on the tapes, DVR shows, DVDs, books, magazines, etc that have piled up since September. Or hang with your family/friends.
Monday, 12/18
Identity, NBC. 8 pm CST. Series Premiere.
Penn Jillette (of "Penn & Teller" and Penn & Teller's Bullsh**!) hosts this game show where contestants try to match character traits to 12 strangers. Sounds lame, but Jellette is a fantastic entertainer. May be worth checking out. This show airs on NBC every night this week; 8 pm on Monday and 7 pm on Tues-Fri.
Jenna ("Pam") Fisher of The Office is a guest on Craig Ferguson's late night show.

Discovery: 18 hours of Dirty Jobs starting at 8 am.
AMC: 18 hours of the classic Miracle on 34th Street, beginning at 11 am.

Or there's football of course. I may finally check out the man who's kicked major ass for me in Fantasy Football all year, LaDainian Tomlinson, when his Chargers face the Seahawks at 3:15 pm. He's been on a massive record-breaking year, and from what I've seen and heard others say about him, it couldn't happen to a nicer guy. No BS touchdown dances and "look at me, look at me" shenanagins; just an amazing player who lets his work speak for him.
Sadly, I won't be personally invested in the game as I just lost my semi-final game this week (not LT's fault-- my receivers suuuuucked) and my work league will not enjoy my presence in the Championship game. Boo!
But I all but wrapped up the Championship in my other league (with a monster performance by Mr. Tomlinson). Pray for a low-performing game tomorrow night with the Bengals vs. the Colts. I've got 80 points on my opponent, but she's got three heavy-hitters in the game to my one decent player.
