Last night felt like a let down after all the premieres on Sunday and Monday nights. Well tonight is a let down as there is nothing of any standout quality. ABC burns off the last Commander In Chief episode while The WB continues burning off Blue Collar TV. On cable there is both celebrity and professional poker being played. What will you be watching?
