Can you believe it, Jim's back!! I thought I'd never see him again & here he is, back on ABC, entertaining us with his manly take on fatherhood & what a 'real' husband is all about. I'm so excited, I could just JUMP.......
Lots of new shows & some returning shows premiere tonight. It seems like 'sweeps' week all over again.
William Shatner didn't stay in the unemployment line for very long. Biography Channel has hired him to do a talk show with an edge. I love Capt. Kirk & will watch just to see him. I'm not so sure about the 'edge' part though. What can he find out in a half-hour? BIO promises to have both stars & politicians. It "will explore strange new worlds, seek out new life & new civilizations" ......ohhh, wait, wrong show! This one promises "it will explore life's most intriguing questions & unearth strange and unknown stories." It also promises to avoid 'movie junket' interviews. Well, there are only 13 episodes ordered and the guest list includes the likes of Kelsey Grammer & Judge Judy, so I think we're safe there.
E! brings us a new 'reality show' "Party Monsters" premieres tonight at 10pm. We get to watch stressed-out contestants plan bizarre affairs for the rich & famous. Sounds like a great "diva" show.
"The Bad Girl's Club" is back (OXYGEN at 10pm) for a 3rd season. We have seven new trashy whores vying for the title of "Biggest Bitch of All". Ya gotta love reality TV. I'm sure they will make "Clip of the Week" on "The Soup".
"Paris Hilton's My New BFF" on MTV wraps up her first season tonight at 10pm, but not before the "Reunion"show at 9pm. Paris actually made it a whole season! I just wonder what this new BFF will really do after the show ends. Get a job in the kitchen?
Oh, and don't forget, "According To Jim" is back just in time for the holidays. ABC has given us our Christmas present early. God Bless Jim!
