Potentially poor taste headline joke endorsed by Billy Mays Jr.

Pitchmen

10:00 (Discovery)

The season and presumably series finale of Pitchmen caps off a day-long marathon in tribute to Billy Mays, and we’re hoping it ends with a plug for a Pitchmen DVD set for just $19.99 if you call now!

Reno 911!

10:30 (Comedy Central)

It’s time for Secret Santa in the biggest little city in the world.  Can we pause for a moment and see if anyone here has actually been to Reno?  It’s terrible.  It’s the worst.  Even Reno 911! can’t even display the full reach of Reno’s awfulness.

So You Think You Can Dance?

8:00 (FOX)

Skip this, watch Kids Can Dance, Too! Trust me.  Really.

Late Night

Jon Stewart brings on author Justin Fox, Colbert raids the Times and comes up with Nic Kristof, and rerun week includes Eddie Murphy and Angela Kinsey on Conan, Denzel Washington and the Jonas Brothers on Letterman, and Spocks collide on Fallon with Zachary Quinto and Leonard Nimoy.

OMG TV: The horror

Posted by Jeff in , , , , , , , ,

There’s nothing good on tonight, but when trying to find the least offensive programming, you might stumble onto a minefield.  So let’s instead tell you what not to watch:

8:00 – So You Think You Can Dance (FOX)

Two hours!  Of crappy dancing!

9:00 – Grey’s Anatomy (ABC)

Two hours!  Of whiny doctors!

9:00 – The Devil Wears Prada (HBO)

Two hours!  Of stupid New Yorkers being mean to each other or something!

Terrible.  Just terrible.  Why not try some lovely Pistons at Celtics at 8:30 on ESPN, or perhaps the classic South Park episode “How to Eat with your Butt”, on Comedy Central at 9:30.  And then, if you can survive long enough, there’s…

Late Night

Richard Lewis on Conan.  Back on the list of things to avoid, you’ve got Sarah Jessica Parker on Letterman and Terry Bradshaw on Leno.
