Premieres and Notables; November 24-30, 2008

Before I get to the listings, let me mention that you should take the opportunity to catch the E! show The Soup from this past Friday. It was f-ing hilarious. It had a great fake interview with Miley Cyrus ("It's Miley!"), a kiss-ass shot at Madonna (been thinking the same thing for years), a brutal little The View rip, the usual blast at Tyra, Alec Baldwin calling out a stupid-ass reporter from a piece of shit TV show, a shout-out on The Price is Right, and the "Kick Ass Clip of the Week" made me say "Holy Shit!" in its awesomeness. All that and much, much more.

Because I liked it so much, I looked them up and here are the upcoming repeats; all on E!:
Sunday: 1 am, 9:30 am, 10 pm
Monday: 2:30 am, 8:30 am, 5 pm, 11:30 pm
Tuesday: 10 am

Do yourself a favor: laugh your ass off. And then on Thursday, when your family all goes around the table and says what they're thankful for, say "All the jackasses in the world that give Joel McHale so much to make fun of."

Okay; the listings:

Monday, 11/24

On How I Met Your Mother (CBS; 7:30 CST), something happens which involves sitting naked on a date's couch. It should be great.

I won't spoil it by saying what happens (I don't have details, but I know a plot point), but I will say to tune into Prison Break (FOX; 8 pm CST) where something big happens.

And Sam and Melanie finally get hitched on Worst Week (CBS; 8:30). Wouldn't be weird if everything went well?


Tuesday, 11/25

Dancing With the Stars (ABC; 8 pm). Season Finale.

The Real Housewives of Orange County; Bravo. 9 pm. 4th Season Premiere.

The Shield (FX; 9 pm). Series Finale.
The show that made FX what it is today bows out. And I've read it's a very good episode.

I've been pretty disappointed in the latest season of Moral Orel, but tonight [adult swim] (Cartoon Network) airs the best episode ever (and one of the funniest of any show I've ever seen) at 11:15-11:30 tonight. This first-season episode focuses on "Waste". I won't go into it because that would ruin the jaw-dropping realization of what Orel will do this episode. Not for people with weak stomachs; but if you can handle it, your stomach will hurt from laughing so hard..


Wednesday, 11/26

Rosie Live; NBC. 7 pm. Series Preview.
A sneak peek at Rosie O'Donnell's upcoming variety show.
Oh, the humanity...

World Magic Awards; MyNetworkTV. 7 pm. Special.
I normally wouldn't mention this type of thing, but this awards show is hosted by Neil Patrick Harris, so it might be worth recording and FFing through anything NPH is not onscreen for.

Sons of Anarchy (FX; 9 pm). Season Finale.
I only got through the pilot, so I hope FX has something waiting in the wings to pick up where The Shield left off. (Because SoA is not it.)


Sunday, 11/30

Snoop Dogg's Father Hood; E!. 9:30. Season Premiere.

SOA got way better, I'm hooked on the show. It has potential.
