The Big Bang Theory (CBS; 7 pm). Season Finale.
Leonard rethinks his relationship with Penny-- just before he leaves for three months.
House (FOX; 7 pm CST). Season Finale.
House's Vicodin addiction comes to a head.
After last week's surprise appearance of a former flame (brilliant ep, BTW), Ted gets a step closer to meeting the mother on How I Met Your Mother (CBS; 7:30 pm).
Note: Exec producer Carter Bays says the mother won't be identified until the series finale, so, hopefully, it'll be a long time before we meet her.
Weaponizers; Discovery. 8 pm. Series Premiere.
Ordinary vehicles are converted into moving weapons with pyro and military weaponry.
Castle (ABC; 9:02). Season Finale.
Tuesday, 5/12
The Biggest Loser: Couples (NBC; 7 pm). Season Finale.

Guest starring Leonard Nimoy. Cool...
Wednesday, 5/13
Lie to Me (FOX; 7 pm). Season Finale.
Secrets of the Dead; PBS. 7 pm (check local listings). Season Premiere.
America's Next Top Model (CW; 7 pm). Season Finale.
Lost (ABC; 8 pm). Season Finale.
Thursday, 5/14
Bones (FOX; 7 pm). Season Finale.
Apparently this is a big deal: Booth & Brennan hit the sheets. And there's an appearance by Motley Crue as well.
My Name Is Earl (NBC; 7 pm). Season Finale.
Smallville (CW; 7 pm). Season Finale.
Doomsday is back-- as are Black Canary, Impulse, and a Legionnaire.
And because it's a Smallville season finale, someone dies.
The Office (NBC; 8 pm). Season Finale (I think it's this week).
Holly Flax shows up to bring a little closure to her and Michael's relationship.
CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (CBS; 8 pm). Season Finale.
Grey's Anatomy (ABC; 8 pm). Season Finale.
I guess there's some sort of wedding. And maybe they'll kill off the two actors whining about getting out of their contracts, South Park Chef style.
Hell's Kitchen (FOX; 8 pm). Season Finale.
Supernatural (CW; 8 pm). Season Finale.
30 Rock (NBC; 8:31). Season Finale.
With appearances by Sheryl Crow and Elvis Costello.
CSI: NY (CBS; 9:01). Season Finale.
A team member dies, from what I hear.
Friday, 5/15
America's Funniest Home Videos (ABC; 7 pm). Season Finale.
Don't Tell the Bride; BBC America. 7 pm. Series Premiere.
Grooms are given $20,000 to plan their weddings-- without any consultation from their brides.
Ghost Whisperer (CBS; 7 pm). Season Finale.
Prison Break (FOX; 7 pm). Series Finale.
That's right, series finale. The show that probably influenced the creation of this blog the most finally ends after four crazy (and sometimes ludicrous seasons). Michael takes his last shot at destroying The Company-- and gets help from old friends to do it.
And there's a death so shocking that the FOX brass had to approve it. (I'm guessing Lincoln. And I'll bet even-money T-Bag takes a dirt nap as well.)
I've read that the end moves ahead in time four years, so that's a nice little "what happened" that most shows don't do.
Of course, as I mentioned a few weeks back, there's a 2-hr movie that will hit DVD (and still may be aired on FOX) that fills in some of the gaps that the series couldn't.
Hotel Babylon; BBC America. 8 pm. Season Premiere.
Numb3rs (CBS; 9 pm). Season Finale.
Battlestar Galactica's James Callis guest stars. Cool again...
Saturday, 5/18
Beverly Hills Groomer; Animal Planet. 9 pm. Series Premiere.
The Groomer Has It winner gets a show. Hmmm. A reality competition that grants the winner a real prize? Interesting.
Mad TV (FOX; 10 pm). Series Finale.
A show that was very good (especially compared to SNL the last decade or so), but ran dry. Hopefully the really great cast members pop up in other places.
The finale features some best-of sketches and some return apperances from old cast members.
And I gotta say it: this latest cast had some hot women on it, so I'll be doubly depressed come Fall when this show isn't airing.
Saturday Night Live (NBC; 10:29). Season Finale.
This show is still airing? Interesting...
Will Ferrell hosts.
Sunday, 5/19
Sit Down, Shut Up (FOX; 6 pm). Season Finale.
Extreme Makeover: Home Edition (ABC; 7 pm). Season Finale.
The Simpsons (FOX; 7 pm). Season Finale.
Survivor: Tocantins (CBS; 7 pm). Season Finale.
King of the Hill (FOX; 7:30). Series Finale.
After 13 seasons, one of the best family-style comedies out there closes shop.
Take some time and catch it in syndication if you haven't been watching. There is good stuff there.
Desperate Housewives (ABC; 8 pm). Season Finale.
Dave (finally) puts his murderous plan into motion, Bree's marriage implodes, and Tom & Lynette get some big news.
And the very end features a small time jump forward that will have people talking.
Family Guy (FOX; 8 pm). Season Finale.
I thought I had this last week, but Entertainment Weekly notes it this week: The How I Met Your Mother cast lend their voices to this episode.
American Dad (FOX; 8:30). Season Finale.
