Prime Picks
Glee (FOX): New. It’s sectionals and New Directions competes against the Warblers and the Hipsters. Carl and Emma seem to be getting even closer.
Stargate Universe (Syfy): Fall Finale. The Destiny comes across what looks to be a debris field of a ship that may be more than it seems. Plays again later. What do you think of the first half of season two so far? Are you looking forward to tonight’s episode?
Sons of Anarchy (FX): Season Finale. The Club looks to deal with the obstacles of the ATF and the Russians that are standing in their way. Runs 90 minutes. Plays twice. No matter what you’ve thought of season three so far, I don’t think you will be disappointed with the finale. Everything has built up to what goes down tonight and a whole lot of stuff goes down. I’m don’t want to say anything more and accidentally spoil something. Just sit back and enjoy the ride, as the events unfold. I will say though that the way the season ends, leaves things in what I find to be such an interesting position, on multiple fronts, to pickup from in season four. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the third season finale. Come back and leave a comment on this post or tweet me over @theTVaholic.
