Prime Picks
House (FOX): Repeat. A season one episode, “Babies & Bathwater,” replays, where a pregnant couple must make a difficult choice and Vogler is still trying to fire House.
K-Ville (FOX): Season Finale. Boulet and Cobb are tasked with shuttling a New York reporter around the city, but don’t really care for the job.
Journeyman (NBC): New. Dan ends up with a woman and her son in an RV that is hanging over the side of a cliff. Dan once again learns the problem of leaving things in the past. Katie’s sister comes for a visit and thinks there is something wrong with Dan. The finale plays on Wednesday night. It is sad that it doesn’t look like NBC will be renewing this. The TVaholic really wishes that they would use the same standard that got Friday Night Lights another season on Journeyman and give this quality show a chance to find its audience, as it is one of the best new shows of the season.
Solid Selections
How I Met Your Mother (CBS): Repeat. The “Bachelor Party” episode from season two replays.
The Big Bang Theory (CBS): Repeat. “The Hamburger Postulate” episode replays with guest star Sara Gilbert (Roseanne).
