Knights of Mayhem; National Geographic. 8 pm CST. Series Premiere.
Hardcore Pawn; Tru TV. 8:30 pm CST. Season Premiere.
Burt's parents show up for Thanksgiving dinner on Raising Hope (Fox; 8:31 pm CST). That should be fun enough, but they went further and cast Lee Majors and Shirley Jones, so it could be legendary.

Thursday, 11/17

Poppy Cat; Sprout. 6 pm CST. Series Premiere.
So, last week, How I Met Your Mother (CBS; 7 pm CST) had the return of the Slutty Pumpkin. This week, the Slap Bet rears its ugly head again. Not sure who gets it, but I think Marshall still owes Barney two shots across the chops. And The Ducky Tie also plays a role in the episode.
Tuesday, 11/8
Vietnam in HD; History. 8 pm CST. Mini-series Premiere.
This three-part series feature footage shot by the soldiers themselves and converted to high-def.
Chuck's Week Off; Cooking Channel. 9:30 pm CST. Series Premiere.
Chuck Hughes travels the world and eats stuff.
Wednesday 11/9
Jason Lee begins a multi-episode arc as a romantic interest for Maya Rudolph's Ava on Up All Night (NBC; 7 pm CST).
Maybe Lee's presence on the show can do something about making Ava funny...
Hell, I hope Lee makes the show funny... period. I have been mildly amused, but haven't laughed yet.
Prophets of Science Fiction; Science. 9 pm CST. Mini-series Premiere.
Exec producer Ridley Scott examines the people and works who made science fiction what it is.

Green Lantern: The Animated Series; Cartoon Network. 6 pm CST. Series Premiere.
I'm not a fan of the look of the series (based on previews I've seen), but it has a ton of potential as a franchise.
Metal Evolution; VH1 Classic. 9 pm CST. Mini-series Premiere.
The network culminates it's "Heavy Metal Day" (11-11-11-- get it? "Cranking it to 11."?) This 11-part series looks at where heavy metal came from and where it ended up.
