So what’s going to win the night – the “Dancing With The Stars” finale or the super-hyped episode of “House” where he and his team are hijacked and “someone dies”? I think most will stick with “House” for an hour and then skip over to ABC to see the final result. Or skip the dancing entirely for the series finale of “The Shield”, which I would personally do.

As people stay in more to watch TV because they aren’t going out as much as budget crunches hit the wallet, could Americans build a new, unconnected video network that replaces shows with podcasts or digital downloads and leaving traditional cable-based companies to maybe, possibly, lower rates?
A column in TVWeek.com seems to think so. Daisy Whitley said since she can now download shows on Netflix on her XBox 360, she can now live a cable-free life.
That would be a credit to NBC Entertainment’s unprecedented attempts to offer all their content for free on their own platform …read more

It’s hard to debate that Britney Spears has been pretty unforgettable this year. How many of us woke up on a couple of mornings in January to find out that she’d been the subject of another media circus, with paparazzi and mainstream press nudging each other aside as she was committed to some sort of involuntary treatment? She was the first story on CNN’s live morning coverage, for crying out loud.
Now Britney’s back and from all appearances will cement her “comeback” on Dec. 2, when her new album comes out on her 27th birthday. Shortly before …read more
In a country where each day seems to bring more “reality” with job losses and stocks plummeting, could TV watchers be looking for a little less reality television? This season’s ratings point toward “yes”.
According to the Los Angeles Times, several network mainstays are performing so badly that their futures are now in doubt. Fox’s “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?,” has lost nearly half its share of the 18-to-49-year-old demographic since last year, and viewership for NBC’s “Deal Or No Deal” has falled nearly 29 percent for its Wednesday show. Even ABC’s “Dancing With The Stars” has lost 9 percent …read more
Another season of "America’s Next Top Model" draws to a close, but incredibly it’s not the most dramatic show of the night.
With a bigamist baby daddy on "Private Practice" and a long-overdue catfight on "Dirty Sexy Money", all those eyeballs who have given up watching ABC on Wednesday nights should be making a return trip.
Read on for the full listings for all the new stuff to watch tonight…

It’s a night full of guest stars, as Shannen Doherty returns to “90210″ and both members of Outkast end up on different shows. Plus we find out who will be going to the “Dancing With The Stars” finals and we once again deal with the clash of the egos on “House”. Will House win or will Foreman? Well, I think that House is leading 3-0 from previous battles, but Foreman is bound to win one eventually.

There’s a whole lot more cooking on “Gossip Girl” tonight than turkey and dressing, while on “Chuck” and “Samantha Who” there’s plenty of ex drama to go around. Finally, will Kate on “Jon & Kate Plus 8″ actually be able to relax and enjoy the day when she and Jon renew their vows? Signs point to “no”.

It’s sweeps, so it’s time for the networks to pull out the ridiculous star power they have been holding for months to help otherwise sluggish shows. NBC’s having a lot of issues drawing eyeballs, so execs have brought back their stars from yesteryear (well, it seems that long) with guest appearances by Jennifer Aniston and Anthony Edwards. But if gimmick casting isn’t your thing, there are a ton of drama-filled reality shows to pick from, as well as some neat plot twists on “The Office” and “Ugly Betty”.
