Prime Picks
Everybody Hates Chris (The CW): New. Chris tries helping the football team with homework in hopes of being able to hang out with them.
The Game (The CW): New. Malik and Robin put on a belated wedding reception hoping to attract some media attention.
Crusoe (NBC): New. Crusoe and Friday try to scare off a band of mutineers that have landed on the island. Hopefully, the action will pick up with this episode, because last week was boring.

Solid Selections
Deal or No Deal (NBC): New. A guy attempts to win money so he can buy the car he has always dreamed of driving.
NCIS (CBS): Repeat. An undercover assignment for Ziva turns deadly in “Recoil” from last season.
Lipstick Jungle (NBC): New. Victory is trying to get her new flagship store opened, but the big plans of her publicist are starting to overshadow things. This will be the show’s new timeslot, but if the ratings don’t at least improve a bit over the numbers they have been getting on Wednesdays, it won’t last much longer.
