Tonight’s Top 10 Shows, Wednesday, 8th

Watercooler

Wednesday, February 8th

 Nature (PBS, 8 pm) Scientists follow a family of urban raccoons.

Rural raccoons raid garbage cans. Urban raccoons steal cars.

Modern Family (ABC, 9 pm) Claire thinks Phil’s new business partner (Greg Kinnear) is blatantly inappropriate, but Phil doesn’t notice.

Of course Phil doesn’t notice; all sit-com husbands are practically retarded.

Criminal Minds (CBS, 9 pm) The team investigates ritualistic casino-related murders in New Jersey.

Ritualistic casino-related murders? I’d be skeptical, but it is Jersey…

Nova (PBS, 9 pm) Conjoined twin girls undergo a series of delicate operations.

I’ll be watching this through my fingers. It at all.

CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (CBS, 10 pm) When woman dressed in vintage clothing and sporting a hairstyle from the 1970s is found dead, the team discovers clues that lead to a killer with a hair fetish.

You killed Kenley! You bastard!

Top Chef: Texas (Bravo, 10 pm) The chefs navigate the pantry blindfolded; another chef is added to the mix; the judges determine the final four.

Tonight, they bust out one of my favorite cliché constructions to hate—here, it’s “there’s no crying in fine dining.” I could punch Tom Hanks in the babymaker for saying that line.

American Greed (CNBC, 10 pm) Van Thu Tran and her crime ring steal millions during a nationwide casino-cheating scheme.

With a name like Van Thu Tran, a life of crime was almost guaranteed.

Law & Order: SVU (CBS, 10 pm) After auditioning for a reality show, a woman is found in Central Park unconscious, with drugs in her system and evidence of sexual assault.

Unfortunately, she signed one of those hold-harmless contracts, so…

The Soup (E!, 10 pm) Host Joel McHale offers a comic recap of the week’s major events in the worlds of entertainment, sports and politics.

I stopped watching the Soup, but right now I bet they have some great Bachelor clips on there. Ben is such a retard.

 

Jimmy Kimmel Live (ABC, 12 am) Actor Josh Hutcherson; actress Nathan Fillion; Far East Movement performs.

Laughing at that typo might not be the best idea, friend.

By day, I'm an editor. That means I get a cruel thrill out of identifying the parts of other people's creative projects that suck, and alerting those people to said suckage. Sometimes, I get paid for it. I've been known to lose my appetite after seeing how a Thai menu has folded, spindled, and mutilated the Queen's English. Imagine what TV does to me! I guess that's why I wanted to be a recapper at TVgasm. My friends have heard all of my rants, and they are sick of them. TVgasm is a whole new captive audience! So, let's make a compact, you and I: you agree to read my recaps and take what amusement you can from them, and I agree to put into the print the outrageous observations about the show that you thought, but were too PC to say. Let's share our joyous rage after wasting another perfectly good hour in front of the television.

Oh, and I still believe that Magnum, P.I. was the greatest show on television. Although I have not seen Thomas Magnum fishtail that Ferrari in the opening credits since I was 14. If Magnum, P.I. actually sucked, keep your damn squeal hole shut and don't ruin it for me, OK?

    Let me say from experience that urban raccoons will also break into your house repeatedly and go through your purse.
