Anyway, on to what's actually airing tonight: the premiere episode isn't actually until next week, but MTV is shamelessly programming four hours of Hills crap anyway, most of it repeats. At 9 PM we have something old called The Hills: The Lost Scenes which actually scares me because usually deleted scenes are deleted for a reason (i.e. because they are unnecessary and boring), which given the unnecessary and boring factor of this show in general means that these lost scenes probably have the tranquilizing power of an elephant sedative. Next up is a The Hills: Launch Special which is bound to feature of lot of awkward fakey fake fake tension between Lauren's crew and the Evil Empire a.k.a. Speidi. Then at 11 PM we've got another repeat of some monstrosity called The Hills: Lauren Looks Back and then a repeat of the Launch Special. So there you have it -- four hours of your life sacrificed on the altar of making talentless people rich for no reason whatsoever. Hooray!
