Daily Picks For Monday, January 7, 2008

Some trash, some junk, and the completely perplexing matter of bringing back Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert without writers.
Okay, I Watched The Whole Movie -- Who's "Louise"?: Okay, it's not as famous as the Matt Damon episode, but the Kevin Bacon episode of Will & Grace is still pretty funny. Somebody was seriously on his or her game in deciding he should reprise that particular idiotic dance routine. (Lifetime, 11:30 AM)

I Am Officially Confused: Just when I think E! can't come up with any more listy shows I won't really understand, I see 101 Most Starlicious Makeovers, including Mickey Rourke. Has Mickey Rourke had a starlicious makeover? Wouldn't Mickey Rourke kind of beat the hell out of you if you complimented him on his starlicious makeover? "Mr. Rourke, you are looking mighty starlicious these days!" POW! I'm just saying. (E!, 1 PM)

Fist-Pumping Good: If you enjoy the parts of Dancing With The Stars where Bruno doesn't make any sense and Carrie Ann bitches about the women not being good enough, you'll love Dance War: Bruno vs. Carrie Ann. So far, I haven't been able to understand the premise at all, but maybe after tonight's debut, everything will be completely clear. Maybe? (ABC, 8 PM)

Meaningless Sporting Event Alert!: Never has the BCS Championship looked so goofy, but if you're into that kind of thing, the supposed national title game is tonight, and you can watch Ohio State take on LSU. That's right -- LSU. (Fox, 8:15 PM)

Gladiators, For Sure: If you saw the debut of American Gladiators, you're ahead of me, but it appears that there's a new installment tonight. So...get right on that. (NBC, 8 PM)

So, Michael Urie...Really?: I haven't seen TLC's Miss America: Reality Check yet (it premiered Friday), but Michael Urie is cute in anything, so I might give it a spin, even though the promos from TLC make it nearly impossible to understand what the hell it's about. Do you see what you're doing to us, WRITERS? (TLC, 10 PM)

...: I have no idea, seriously, what it will look like to have The Daily Show and The Colbert Report back without writers. WRITERS! I can no more imagine that than I can imagine a scripted drama without writers, but I guess we will all find out together what this is going to mean. (Comedy Central, 11 PM/11:30 PM)
