A whole lotta Jackie Warner, plus the world's most notorious noodle.
Yes, another marathon on Bravo kicks off your morning. What can I say, the Today show lineups have been weak. Anyway, today it's another Work Out marathon, this time covering Season 2, including trainer Doug's tragic death and Rebecca's diabolical faux-lesbian attention-whoring routine. (Bravo, 8:30AM)
The E! True Hollywood Story today is for the cast of That 70s Show. How they're going to fill up a whole hour on that cast is a mystery. What with Topher Grace's occasional brushes with relevance and Fez's frequent and skuzzy devirginizings and the redhead and the Scientologist with the sunglasses having nothing interesting going on whatsoever. Just give Ashton and Demi their own hour and be done with it. (E! 3 PM)
I don't know how else to say this but to just up and say it...Academy Award-winning (ugh, shudder) film Crash gets the basic cable treatment on FX. Maybe in addition to editing for language and content, they can edit for phoniness masquerading and depth and paper-thin characterizations? (FX, 5 PM)
Good Seinfeld today. "The Fusilli Jerry" features Kramer's "ASSMAN" license plates, the "stopping short" method of making a pass, and of course that uncomfortably fateful piece of corkscrew pasta. (TBS, 5 PM)
Okay, so here's the real tragedy of the Sabres not making this year's Stanley Cup Playoffs: on Sunday, I found myself, within the span of, like, six hours, rooting for the Philadelphia Flyers and the New Jersey Devils. The Flyers and the Devils! So not right. Tonight, I go back to holding my nose for Philly as the Washington Capitals come to town for Game 3. (VS, 7 PM)
My mind's been going crazy all week trying to figure out who's going to perform what as American Idol embarks upon the potential gold mine that is Mariah Carey Week. David Archuleta doing the Puff Daddy version of "Honey"? Oh please oh please oh please! (FOX, 8 PM)
Any time the phrase "quits drinking" shows up in an episode description for Bad Girls Club, you know that it's going to be both disastrous and short-lived. Sounds good to me. (Oxygen, 10 PM)
And finally, because I'm nothing if not a fan of symmetry, the Work Out season premiere puts a fine cap on your programming day. Enjoy the new trainer, Giant Slab of Marble. (Bravo, 11 PM)
