Premieres and Notables; January 19-25, 2009

Monday, 1/19

Will Work for Food; Food. 7:30 pm CST. Series Premiere.
Some dude gets his own show about the work that goes into procuring the food we put on the table. Or something like that. I don't know about you, but all the Food Network shows sound about the same to me.

Momma's Boys (NBC; 9 pm). Season Finale. The way I hear it; it most likely will be series finale.

Paranormal State; A&E. 9 pm. Season Premiere.


Tuesday, 1/20

Starting at 9 am CST on most network and cable news channels is the Inauguration of Barack Obama. Like him and his politics or not, you know this will be a speech to remember.

On Scrubs (ABC; 8 pm), Elmo and some of his Sesame Street friends help JD teach the interns. Only on this show could that work...


Wednesday, 1/21

Lie to Me; FOX. 8 pm. Series Premiere.
Tim Roth stars as a guy who can can detect lies people tell in this crime series. Bound to be the latest FOX casualty that doesn't live up to its American Idol lead-in.

Lost; ABC. 8 pm. 5th Season Premiere.


Thursday, 1/22

Kitchen Nightmares (FOX; 8 pm). Season Finale.
This show was airing recently? Really?

Burn Notice; USA. 9 pm. Mid-season return.


Friday, 1/23

Electric Company; PBS. 4:30 (check local listings). Series Premiere.
The '70s classic is redone for the new millennium.

Wolverine and the X-Men; Nicktoons. 7 pm. Series Premiere.
The last thing I heard about this show was so long ago, I can't remember it. Something about Professor X disappearing and Wolverine having to lead the X-Men. I never was a big X-Men fan-- and Wolverine usually annoyed more than intrigued me, But I liked X-Men Evolution from a few years back, so I'll probably check this out.

Hey Scrubs isn't showing in my neck of the woods. Bummer. I can't wait for Lost.

And I completely agree on the Inauguration Speech. I took the day off to watch all the happenings.
