Kathy Griffin for President.
The Sci Fi channel is cashing in on all the Hulk hoopla (alliterative, no?) by airing an all-day marathon of the Ferrigno-tastic Incredible Hulk (Sci Fi, 8 AM). Settle in for hours of rage-filled super-heroism. Once the clock strikes four, you can incorporate drinking into the Hulk Bonanza, smashing empty beer cans against your noggin in a feat of human strength.
If you miss The Sopranos and/or are addicted to Grand Theft Auto IV, flip over to the History Channel tonight for some good old fashion edu-tainment in the form of Organized Crime: A World History (The History Channel, 4 PM), which will focus tonight on Russia's Red Mafiya. It's not clear whether this is an ongoing series or not, but I hope to god there is an installment devoted to the Yakuza. True story: one time at summer camp my friend and I took up a collection to send money to the Yakuza in an effort to buy a membership. (Being that we were fifteen and not Japanese, we figured we'd have to bribe them.) Total amount collected: 47 cents. Needless to say, we gave up the dream.
Um what is up with the Biography Channel? Is it a National Classic Rock Burn-Out Day and no one told me? That would explain the three hour programming block devoted to the biographies of Ozzy Osbourne (BIO, 9 PM), Gene Simmons (BIO, 10 PM) and Tommy Lee (BIO,11 PM). Unless this is some new, covert anti-drug campaign they're trying out.
Thank you, Jesus. Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List (Bravo, 9 PM) is FINALLY back for a new season and I'm crying tears of joy. Sass-fest 2008 you guys.
Speaking of Ms. Griffin, obvi you will be tuning into Bravo's very first awards show, The A-List Awards (Bravo, 10 PM). Because obvi you read the fantastique (that's French) teasers we posted last week and you're dying dying DYING to "watch what happens." Seriously though, it's gonna be good. It'll be fifteen seconds long after they edit it down to meet censorship standards, but it'll be good.
New episode of Schwingtown, OOPS I mean Swingtown (CBS, 10 PM). Tee hee. Sorry, I had to. I have yet to watch because when I'm in the mood for softcore porn, I prefer premium cable shows that are allowed to show full frontal. But Grant Show and his pornstache are wearing me down.
