You have to consider that American Idol ran 3 minutes into Lie To Me’s time slot & altered their final ratings numbers.(cheaters!) These early numbers show that CBS still dominated the night & LOST came in 3rd in the 9pm time slot. (I am sad).

Okay, enough about ratings. Let’s just focus on what’s on tonight. Oh, I did watch Lie To Me today & I really liked it. I will dvr it again. Focus! Today we have one season premiere & that is Burn Notice on USA at 10pm.

That new show, Lie To Me was worth watching, but I didn’t think more people would watch it than LOST. Oh f*ck, I need to FOCUS on today. I can’t change the past. Daniel said so! I think the grey-haired lady is his mom. Okay! Enough! Focus on today! Here we go……..

CBS is repeating Grissom’s farewell on CSI at 8pm, followed by a new episode at 9pm with Cowboy Curtis trying to be the new boss. Eleventh Hour is all-new at 10pm.

(Ben has only 70 hours to round up the Oceanic 6…….focus….).

ABC’s line-up is all-new:

Ugly Betty at 8pm. (There is an Ugly Charlotte on LOST)

Grey’s Anatomy at 9pm. (I could see Jack working here…).

Private Practice at 10pm. (Juliet would fit in with this crowd……… dammit focus..).

NBC has new episodes of:

My Name is Earl at 8pm. Erik Estrada is back.

Kath & Kim at 8:30pm. Last week, NBC replaced the show with anothe “Earl” episode. Hope they do it again.

The Office at 9pm.

30 Rock at 9:30pm.

ER at 10pm. Clooney’s coming back, but not tonight.

(Dr. Greene came back from the dead, kinda like Ana Lucia did when she pulled over Hurley!……shit, I did it again).

The CW has a new Smallville at 8pm & a new Supernatural at 9pm.

FOX is running back to back, new episodes of Bones at 8 & 9pm.

The Beast is new on A&E at 10pm.

(thinking of beasts, we saw nothing of the smoke monster on the island……hmmmm?)

Marijuana Inc: Inside America’s Pot Industry is on CNBC tonight at 9pm. It is considered one of the most profitable underground businesses in the USA. Doesn’t surprise me.

(Speaking of drugs, that reminds me, wasn’t it awesome the way Locke saw the drug plane crash & it was full of those Mary statues full of herion again! *focus*)

MTV has Randy Jackson Presents: America’s Best Dance Crew at 10pm. There are some really great dancers this season. I was amazed at the things these kids do. It goes beyond dancing.

Two new episodes of Saw For Hire at 9 & 9:30pm. They are going to cut down trees that fell on 2 houses & tackle the biggest tree they’ve ever seen! Sounds riveting to me. LA Ink follows at 10pm.

New Celebrity Rehab Presents: Sober House on VH1 at 10pm. A barbeque party goes horribly wrong. Wonder what that means? Jeff & Gary show up maybe.

(what the hell was that thing that Miles found dead in the woods that they built a fire and ate?)

That’s all I have time for today kids. I’m sorry if my posts are a tad confusing. I’m just still so pumped over last night’s LOST! I need to get ready for Flipit’s & Greybishop’s TVGasm Radio show tonight at 7pm. To listen in, just show up here at the site. It will be running. To participate, follow these simple instructions found here.

My question for the evening will be, “Do you guys think Charlotte is fading like Marty did in “Back to the Future?”
