Wednesday, Dec. 14th

Ghost Hunters (SYFY, 7 pm) The crew investigates a town overrun by paranormal events.

And yet, they manage to catch exactly nothing on film.

The Rosie Show (OWN, 7 pm) Rosie O’Donnell’s big return to television comes in the form of “The Rosie Show” for Oprah Winfrey’s OWN Network.

No, I don’t know how she scored that hot lipstick lesbian, either.

Survivor: South Pacific (CBS, 8 pm) When five original Upolu members turn on each other, things become tense at the camp.

It suddenly becomes obvious to the players that only one of them can win, and the game gets real.

Beavers All Access (Root 9:30 pm) An inside look at Oregon State athletics, focusing on football and basketball.

Oh. “Beavers” as in the Oregon Beavers. I knew that.

I Hate My Teenage Daughter (Fox, 9:30 pm) As the girls get ready for the father-daughter dance, Jack prepares to be a stand-in if Matt bails on Sophie; Mackenzie worries that Nikki will embarrass her.

Mackenzie left her retainer in my room last night.

Barbara Walters Presents the 10 Most Fascinating People of 2011 (ABC, 9:30 pm) The journalist interviews some of the year’s top newsmakers, including the Kardashian family, Simon Cowell, Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Eric Stonestreet; Derek Jeter; Donald Trump; and Katy Perry and Pippa Middleton.

Yeah, Katy Perry. Making that headline news.

CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (CBS, 10 PM) When Dr. Robbins’ wife finds a nude corpse in their bedroom, it begins an investigation.

I should hope so!

Lady Hoggers (A&E, 10 pm) Julie and Christie team up with a colleague to catch a “phantom hog”; Gary and the local sheriff take action to eliminate hogs from the highway.

If you can read this, the bitch fell off.

Top Chef: Texas (Bravo, 10 pm) The chefs pair up to cook for famous chefs who love to hunt.

And they are horrified to learn that cute animals are killed to provide meat.

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.

McHale, if I wanted to watch Community, I would have watched Community. Now get your unfunny ex-costars the hell off The Soup.

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?

    In fact – advice to McHale get everybody off The Soup!

    If I wanted to watch an informercial for everybody pimping their new show or new book or new song or in his case administer CPR to a dying show – I would stay up until 4 AM and watch TV then. Love The Soup but Love DVR’s more as it allows me to fast forward everytime somebody comes on the show for an obnoxious product plug.

    Ahhh, Ghost Hunters, where the intrepid reporters get startled by noises in the dark. My dog does this also, only better. Strangely, he never gets anything on film either. I think I’ll tell my husband about the shocking new show, Beavers All Access, just for fun. What? He loves sports!

    I haven’t watched The Soup in forever because of the reasons you mentioned above. And I don’t have a DVR yet.

    I think Babwa needs to get out more if those people are the best she can come up with.

    Beavers All Access…I thought you were promoting The Rosie Show twice.

    Typical ghost hunters-type show:

    “Dude, what was that??!”

    “You heard that too??”

    “#$%! I did! And it’s cold! Right here!”

    “Holy @#$! There’s a cold spot. Right where I’m standing.”

    If two doofuses (doofi?) did this much nothing in a daylit room, you’d change the channel. But if they do it while being filmed in nightvision, even nothing is more spooky. Somehow. I guess.

    What I’m saying is: without nightvision, these shows couldn’t even exist.

    LOL @ cattyfan!
    I feared that network would spoil Joel and The Soup! We can’t have anything nice! :-/
