Crossroads on CMT (7 pm CST) features a concert with Alison Kraus and Robert Plant. Normally I don't note any CMT shows, but I've heard this is outstanding.

Jericho; CBS. 9 pm. 2nd Season Premiere.
CBS claims the fans brought this show back from cancellation, so it's up to the fans to keep it on the air for the seven episode mini-season.
Big Brother 9; CBS. 8 pm. season premiere.
I'm not sure I'm a fan of this winter edition plan. I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that I was kinda enjoying the lack of new episodes to watch on TV by watching shows I have collected on tape/DVD the last few years.
And Scott Bakula alert! He shows up on Boston Legal (ABC, 9 pm) as an old flame of Shirley's (Candice Bergen). That's a big deal for two reasons: 1. He's a great television actor, who's had numerous guest apperances on various shows as well lead roles in two fantastic series (Enterprise and Quantum Leap) and 2. he and Bergen played lovers on Murphy Brown fifteen years ago.

American Idol (FOX, 7 pm) finally gets to the final 24...
Thursday, 2/14
I just saw that Chiller TV is airing the second episode of Profit at 7 pm. I've heard great things about this show; check it out. Unless you have Charter Cable-- they don't have Chiller (at least in my neck of the woods). Gotta start thinking about a Dish, I think...

Knight Rider; NBC. 8 pm. Movie
This movie is a (planned) pilot for a new series and just needs good ratings/buzz to get made weekly. David Hasselhoff has a cameo to ensure this movie gets considered a sequel (NBC has sequel rights, but not remake rights), but otherwise everything is new, right down to Will Arnett as KITT's new voice.
Ultimate Recipe Showdown; Food Network. 8 pm. Series premiere.
Yet another "bake-off" competition show. Yawn...
Bulging Brides; WE. 9 pm. Series premiere.
Personal trainers and nutritionists put brides-to-be through their paces to trim them down for the big day.
And finally, CBS is airing the Showtime hit Dexter at 9 pm CST. It's worth checking out from what I hear (I'm holding out for the DVD set from the library-- three more weeks before it's "mine"). It's edited mostly for time on CBS, and the lines with naughty language was shot using less harsh words during filming, so there won't be any bad dubbing. Let's hope this works out as I'd really like to see other premium channel shows on networks (Weeds would be great).
