CBS has ordered four additional scripts for Cane, but the rating better improve soon, if they stand any chance of ever being filmed and aired.
Prime Picks
NCIS (CBS): New. A dead guy that was mistakenly marked as a John Doe turns out to be that of a career criminal with links to really bad people.
The Unit (CBS): New. A rescue of embassy personnel is attempted in Abidjan.
Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (NBC): New. The mentally retarded daughter of a murder victim is the only witness to the crime.
Solid Selections
Beauty and the Geek (The CW): New. The geeks get their new looks tonight.
Reaper (The CW): New. This time he must capture a magician that kills people that don’t like his performances. Have given up on this show. It just isn’t that good, but with no House on FOX tonight, it is the second best option in this time slot.

Eureka (Sci Fi): Repeat. The “Maneater” episode from season two replays. The “Family Reunion” episode replays right before.

Other Options
- Ace of Cakes (Food Network): New. A giant cake for the movie Hairspray is made by the gang. Plays again later.
- Two Dudes Catering (Food Network): Series Premiere. Docu-series about two guys running a catering business in Hollywood that is trying to make a name for themselves.
