9:00 – The Office (NBC)
The Office goes to Canada! Eh! Ha ha! Eh!
9:30 – 30 Rock (NBC)
Some people will try to tell you that tonight’s big grab for ratings is guest star Jennifer Aniston. But I’d say it’s guest stars “the cast of Night Court.” Ben Silverman works in mysterious ways. Except for canceling My Own Worst Enemy, that was pretty predictable.
10:30 – The Sarah Silverman Program (Comedy Central)
Sarah’s pregnant! I’m hoping for a Juno takedown, but I will settle for anything classier than wire hanger jokes.
Late Night
Bruce Willis arm wrestles with Letterman, Anderson Cooper is a digital “tomogram” on Leno, Paul Rudd and – more importantly? – John Stamos have a tea party on Conan, Bill O’Reilly hopefully sticks around for the toss on the Daily Show, and Stephen Moore talks the economy on Colbert.

8:00 – Barack Obama’s Variety Funtime Half Hour (NBC, CBS, BET & Fox)
When flush with cash, some presidential campaigns blow $150,000 on outfits for a former beauty queen yokel. Others buy up a half hour of network time. New York magazine and SNL have both weighed in with their predictions, but the real question is, why isn’t this on ABC? Is Obama going to pretape his message so he can catch Pushing Daisies?
8:37 EST – World Series Game Five… again (Fox)
Hopefully. If this crap in Philly keeps up, we’re going to have to send in FEMA. Then again, on the bright side, we at least get some hilarious Selig faces everytime he has to explain another dumb aspect of this dumb series.
10:00 – South Park (Comedy Central)
Picking up where last week’s excellently Peruvian Flute Band themed episode left off, the town goes all Cloverfield as hamsters invade. Sure, why not.
Late Night
Alec Baldwin hopefully looks less creepy than he does on his book cover while visiting Letterman, Sarah Silverman attempts to avoid another London incident on Leno, Tracy Morgan continues the 30 Rock love parade on Conan, some cat named Barry Hussein is on The Daily Show, and The Wire creator David Simon goes Baltimore style on Colbert.
