Walk, Don’t Run | Indiscreet | ||||
TCM’s celebration of Cary Grant (their star of the month) continues with: Walk, Don’t Run (TCM, 7pm); Indiscreet (TCM, 9pm); Father Goose (TCM, 11pm); Dream Wife (TCM, 1am); and Operation Petticoat (TCM, 3am). I’d blather about these movies, but you’d probably learn more about them by reading what they say over at the TCM website (follow the link above).
A teacher (Don Franklin) convinces Vanessa to become a vegetarian just in time for Thanksgiving on a new episode of The Bernie Mac Show (FOX, 7pm). And Jordan tells scary tales of the kids’ table. This is an underrated, underseen show; I do hope more people check it out this summer.
I feel sorry for you if you’re trying to catch up with this past season of Gilmore Girls (WB, 7pm) this summer, ‘cuz the WB sure is showing episodes wildly out of order. Last week’s episode (21st episode of the season) was the one where Luke’s sister got married, this week’s episode is the one where we meet Luke’s sister for the first time (12th episode of the season). Anyway. Luke’s sister shows up, so does Jess (though he’s not in this episode much). Digger and Lorelai go shopping together. Lane is staying at Yale, Paris dumps her boyfriend, etc. I watched season 1 on DVD this past weekend and boy is that one brilliant season of TV. I loved it when it first aired, love the episodes even more now.
Baseball: Houston Astros at Chicago Cubs (WGN, 7pm).
An inmate is on trial for the murder of the prison chaplain in a new episode of The Jury (FOX, 8pm). Lots of actors who have appeared on Oz guest star in this episode, including J.K. Simmons, Eamonn Walker, Scott Winters, Betty Buckley, George Morfogen, Jon Seda, and Mums. This episode is scheduled to air again on Friday, July 9th.
The women compete for a date with Outback Jack (TBS, 8pm, 10pm). As they struggle to survive in and learn about the Outback.
New episode of Summerland (WB, 8pm; airs again on Monday). The guy who works in the surf shop (Jay) apparently has an injury that has kept him from surfing, so of course folks encourage him to try to enter a surf competition or something. Ava decides they need to be more organized and I’m sure getting everyone to agree on organization goes well. Yup. Oh wait, I have seen TV before so I know things won’t go smoothly (at least at first). I’m still watching the show because I like Merrin Dungey and Shawn Christian (who I hated back when he was on As The World Turns).
Parts3 & 4 (of 4) of Armistead Maupin’s Further Tales of the City (Showtime, 8pm, 9pm).
Ramona and Owen get a thermostat of their own for their office and then disagree on what temperature to set it for on Less Than Perfect (ABC, 8:30pm). Kipp tries to convince Claude that his boss (Patrick Warburton) is better than hers (Eric Roberts).
Christian manages to break his nose during sex (yes, really) on a new episode of Nip/Tuck (FX, 9pm, 10pm). This episode airs again on July 2nd and July 4th.
I’m really loving The Joe Schmo Show (Spike, 9pm). This season is even funnier than last season (the “pearl necklace ceremony”! The “falcon twist”! And so on). Tonight’s new episode is titled “The Crisis” and if you’ve been watching you know it’s pretty safe to assume that Ingrid (or Jane Schmo) is pretty darn close to figuring out that the show isn’t real. I think they’ve been able to be more over the top this time around because they knew that even if one of the Schmos figure it out, they still should be able to keep going with the other one. This episode airs again on July 4th, 5th, and 6th.
The Fab 5 help a gay guy on a very special new episode of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy (Bravo, 9pm and midnight).
New episode of of NYPD 24/7 (ABC, 9pm).
Season finale of Real World: San Diego (MTV, 9pm). It’s preceded by a marathon of episodes from this season of the show.
