What To Watch: Raylan Givens Pays No Mind To Fools

Wednesday!


 I'm tired of using Raylan pictures every week. Here, have some Winona. 
 I'm tired of using Raylan pictures every week. Here, have some Winona. 
You know, I've never watched a single American Idol except for the finale episode a couple seasons back, which I only watched because it was on in a bar I was in, and then only fitfully. It was the one where the guyliner guy didn't win and everyone cried about it. I don't say that to sound hipster-y or too cool for school; just an observation. 

Now that that observation is out of the way, how's Justified looking tonight? Good? Good. I am mindlessly looking forward to these last few episodes. If anything, I wish they would make a longer season; I'd happily watch 24 episodes of Justified, but I guess quality counts more than quantity. 

Speaking of which, ABC wins the night with six new episodes of sitcommery, should you be into that kind of thing. For the life of me, I don't think I've ever heard of Better With You before, even though it's been on since September. I've probably even written about it before, but damn if I can sum up any details about it. 
American Idol: The Search for a Superstar

Fox 8 PM: The finalists perform "songs from the 21st Century." Way to impose restrictions that are in no way restrictive, guys.

Justified

FX 10PM: Raylan deals with the aftermath of the assassination attempt. I'm not even going to read the rest of the description because I don't want anything spoiled for me.

Modern Family

Hell of a night for ABC, which starts things off with a new episode of The Middle at 8 PM, followed by Better With You, Modern Family, Cougar Town, and two episodes of something called Happy Endings. Actually, I confess that I don't think I've ever heard of Better With You, either, despite it having aired since September.

Survivor

CBS 8 PM: One alliance's supply of rice is contaminated, which leads to some heated arguments. Alright, I confess: I peed in it.

Breaking In

Fox 9:30 PM: NASCAR champ Jimmie Johnson guest-stars. I guess the NASCAR wives will be watching American Idol beforehand, and their husbands can just keep on watching. "Cash suspects the office photocopier has a mind of its own." LOL.

Top Chef

BRAVO 10 PM: Now this sounds interesting: the chefs have to create a meal using crickets, beetles, and night crawlers. Yum! They also serve up food for charity. I'm sensing some wacky hijinks and unhappy homeless people!

MythBusters

Discovery 9 PM: Adam and Jamie try to walk on water; the other people try to bomb-proof common items. It feels like this show has been on the air for like a million years now.

Am I the only person who loves the other people on Mythbusters? Not as much as Jamie and Adam of course, but I do like them.

@Pickle:  Nope, I love Tory, Kari and Grant too and really loved when Scottie returned for an episode or two.  Who doesn't like seeing Grant get sick and throw up on camera or Kari make that "ugh" face when she has to handle dead pig parts?  Jessie, who took over for Kari when she was preggers was just okay.  I kind of wish they had convinced Scottie to come back during those shows.

For a moment, I read Breaking In as Breaking Bad....I can´t wait for the new season of that to start...sigh...July can´t be more far away right now...

Justified! Get some!

Raylan took some dudes out last episode. He'll probably take some dudes out this episode too.

I'm down.

I'll be on the road, listening to some podcasts and trying to stay awake.   I hear truckers use speed and it's really effective.

Raylan on a killing spree

Thanks for the Winona (Natalie Zea) pic. Not that anything related to Timothy Olyphant is bad, but it's nice to get some variation. And yup, Justified is about all that's on tonight that's interesting. That's what I'll be watching. :)

Mythbusters  will go off the air when Jamie and Adam both die, even then though te show will probably continue on.

I love me some Modern Family.

I never miss an episode of Justified.

This dude reads minds.

Justified is what I'll be watching, as well as some of the NBA playoffs, if they're on a channel that I get.
BradGrenzon April 20, 2011 at 12:42 p.m.
Don't forget Cougar Town which returned from hiatus this week! It's perhaps the most underrated comedy on television.

I love how Winona is only good as a back up to Raylan! I'll take it, thank you very much.

Tonight on The Ultimate Fighter, two mean will beat each other up but only one will win. 
Xpgamer7on April 20, 2011 at 6:58 p.m.
Justified time. Works for me.
Parsnipon April 20, 2011 at 7:52 p.m.
I heard a rumor that Breaking In isn't actually 100% terrible.
WeeMadAndoon April 21, 2011 at 2:57 a.m.
@Parsnip: Breaking In is actually way better than it has any right to be.  I was on the fence after the first episode, but the second one made a lot of the tweaks I was hoping for.

Not gonna happen, he can't hit anything this season, I guess he somehow lost his marksmanship ;)
