Premieres and Notables; Dec. 14-20, 2009

Monday, 12/14

The Vampire Diaries; The CW. 7-9 pm CST. Marathon.
In a cool move I'd like to see other networks do, The CW is airing the first half of the season Monday to Friday this week.

The Sing-Off; NBC.  7 pm CST.  Series Premiere.
This daily series (Mon-Wed this week) touts it takes the singing in Glee and mixes it with the competition of

American Idol right in the commercial.
I guess NBC hasn't been able to score on its own, so it may as well rip-off the best...

Bank of Hollywood; E!. 9 pm CST. Series Premiere.
Average blokes beg a panel of L.A. moneybags (like Candy Spelling) to finance their dreams.

E2: Design (Sundance; 7 pm). Season Finale.

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

Funniest Commercials of the Year 2009; TBS. 9 pm CST. Special.
Usually a pretty good hour of TV-- especially since I watch my TV on DVR, DVD, or tape and FastForward through commercials.


Wednesday, 12/16

So You Think You Can Dance (FOX; 7 pm)  Season Finale.

Man vs. Food (Travel; 9 pm). Season Finale.

Nip/Tuck (FX; 9 pm). Season Finale.


Thursday, 12/17

SNL Presents: A Very Gilly Christmas; NBC. 7 pm. Special.
Normally I wouldn't mention an SNL special (as the show has been crap for years), but these clip shows tend to be okay.


Friday, 12/18

Love the Beast; SPEED. 7 pm. Special.
Eric Bana directs this documentary about his 1974 XB Coupe.

Crash (Starz; 9 pm). Season Finale.


Saturday, 12/19

WWE Tribute to the Troops; NBC, 8 pm CST. Special.

Doctor Who: The Waters of Mars; BBC America.  8 pm CST. Special.
The countdown to David Tennant's departure of the series ticks one episode closer...
