Annie does some heavy multi-tasking in tonight's episode of Being Human (BBCA, 9 PM). Not only does she have to pretend to be human, she investigates the reason why she's stuck in limbo with the help of a fellow ghost.

In the series finale of Dirty Sexy Money (ABC, 10 PM), things get darker and dirtier when Simon is clandestinely taken somewhere after being stabbed, and Nick's ex-wife decides to expose the secrets of the Darling clan in a book -- something I wouldn't mind reading.

The economy is driving everyone insane, including a random, aging revolutionary in the finale of Law & Order (USA, 9 PM) who sparks an uprising and kidnaps the country's most powerful banker as a result of banks failing the American people.

We've seen the white-mask-donned members of Jabbawockeez do their thing, and it's getting old. And since the other winners weren't as memorable, let's hope we finally find a crew that will finally upstage them in the fourth season premiere of America's Best Dance Crew (MTV, 9 PM).

Entrepreneurship reality shows are all the rage these days. Shark Tank (ABC, 9 PM) premieres with budding entrepreneurs who pitch ideas to the "sharks," and if more than one shark wants to invest, the jaws come out and a bidding war begins.

There's no better way to get to know the neighbors than be enclosed together by a 20-foot wall. But, if that's what it takes to win $250,000, then so be it. Eight suburban families compete in family-friendly games in the series premiere of There Goes the Neighborhood (CBS, 9 PM) for the grand prize.

If you want to check out what the teeny boppers these days go crazy for, then tune into Teen Choice 2009 (Fox, 8 PM), because you'll be in luck -- the Jonas Brothers are hosting the awards ceremony.

So, despite her claim of lacking "celebrity status," Kathy is moving up and gets a star on the Walk of Fame in the fifth season finale of Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List (Bravo, 10 PM). Not too shabby.

So, Nancy's lack of parental responsibility finally catches up with her because Shane got shot, and now new enemies threaten both Silas and Shane in tonight's episode of Weeds (Showtime, 10 PM). The Botwins are in danger. Again. Nothing new there. Meanwhile, Doug and Dean finally take down Celia. Serves her right for being a conniving thief.

NYC Prep (Bravo, 9 PM) will finally be over. PC and Jessie say bye to each other, and there's something about a charity event in tonight's finale.

Things get way more interesting when Veronica's surprising secret life is exposed in a Veridian intervention in the first season finale of Better Off Ted (ABC, 9:30 PM). Meanwhile, Ted might be getting some action, because Linda sets him up with her ex-roommate.

The second season premiere of Daddy's Girls (MTV, 10 PM) is tonight, and it's about Vanessa and Angela Simmons. I have no idea who they are or why they're famous. All I know is that they live in LA and have a shoe and apparel line.

Bear Grylls never fails to bring his A-game, because we learn a thing or two about surviving the Arctic Circle chill in the fourth season premiere of Man vs. Wild (Discovery, 9 PM). Plus! We get to see a frozen waterfall!

Teddy's always doing some good -- like helping solve the food shortage in Haiti. Philip is on board too, but too bad there's a sibling throwdown with his estranged brother that may get in the way. Find out on tonight's finale of The Philanthropist (NBC, 10 PM).

If you didn't get your fill of eerie, doll-like child beauty pageant contestants in Little Miss Sunshine, you can check out West Virginia's bigtime Walk of Fame pageant on tonight's Toddlers & Tiaras (TLC, 10 PM) -- crazy parents, creepily made-up little girls and all.

For all you diehard football fans, get a good, hard look into the lives of the Cincinnati Bengals as the team preps for the 2009 season at training camp in tonight's fifth season premiere of Hard Knocks (HBO, 10 PM).

We get to know the second generation of Skins (BBCA, 9 PM) a little more. All we know for sure is that Cook is the charismatic and sociable one, so it makes sense that he celebrates his birthday in his Uncle Keith's pub. Will he get closer to Effy in tonight's episode?

Things get out of hand when Kat goes away to NYC to promote her new fragrance line in tonight's episode of LA Ink (TLC, 10 PM), and Aubry takes this opportunity to cause some mischief.

Kim seems to be the black sheep of the Real Housewives of Atlanta (Bravo, 10 PM) since everyone has some sort of a grudge against her, but that doesn't stop her from throwing a wig party. Also, a reconciliation between the three housewives don't go as planned, which could be seen as a good thing. What's the point of the show if everyone makes nice?

The town of Eureka (Syfy, 9 PM) sees some deadly electrical abnormalities, and Sheriff Carter is right to think that it has something to do with Henry's ship returning. The show sure has some Lost characteristics, don't you think?

As all good detectives do, Shawn and Gus discover the wreckage of a plane crash that killed some billionaire whose dying words claim that he was murdered. It's time for Shawn to do some good and use his psychic abilities and find out who crashed the plane. Watch it in tonight's episode of Psych (USA, 10 PM).
