What to Watch: Tuesday

I don't know about you guys, but I think I might just be watching some movies tonight.

What to Watch: Tuesday

Jason Lee - is that you in there?!
Jason Lee - is that you in there?!
1. Ringer

9pm on The CW

The Season Finale of Sarah Michelle Gellar's show on The CW airs tonight. It started out with a bang, and has steadily fallen in the ratings since. Sad state for the Vampire Slayer, but since the shows fate is undecided at this point tonights episode could be the last.

2. New Girl

9:00pm on FOX

A new New Girl and in this one Jeanne Tripplehorn guest stars as Russell's ex-wife. When Jess has to babysit Russell's inquisitive daughter she asks if they "dry lump". That's funny.

3. Raising Hope

9:30pm on FOX

Fox's quirky comedy that is strikingly similar to the story on Eastbound and Down this season (and I personally think Kenny Powers does it better). Yet, in this season finale episode, with a courtroom custody battle, almost every big guest star that has ever been on the show before appears again, (Jason Lee, Jaime Pressley, Nancy Grace) besides Katy Perry that is.

4. NCIS

8:00pm on CBS

I still have yet to figure out why this is one of the highest rated shows on television, but many people obviously disagree.

5. Shannen Says

10pm on WE

Shannen Doherty in a reality show? Reviews say she is surprisingly normal. No! If she's not gonna be Brenda Walsh, we want her to be the bitch we are all know and not really love, right?

I don't understand the hate for Shannen Doherty I've always liked her, then again I've only seen her in Mallrats and that's basically my favorite movie, so that could be why.

As someone who's attempted to watch Buffy multiple times, only to be foiled by the overflowing spring of annoying that is SMG, the concept of ringer just makes me laugh.

Also, non-bitchy Shannen Doherty is still pretty great. I always thought the was the most talented of those Beverly Hills drama queens, and it's too bad that she'll never really outlive it. Well, I guess having a reality show to get rich is the perfect move then. Good for her!

@gangly: I have to say, I forgot about Mallrats (crime, I know) and I stand corrected about that one. I loved her in that.

Obviously you have never been super bored at wee hours of the morning or bored in general. No matter what I always seem to be able to find NCIS in some sorta marathon on USA Network. Its not what I would call a "great" show but it is sooo easy to marathon that its scary.

The snark is starting to work its way back into the screened postings. The personality of this site may be saved after all. More personality please.

Also, I will be listening to podcasts and watching the local news. Nothin there for me.

I'm going to be hella bummed if Ringer doesn't get renewed. The show is is 100% balls out crazy nonsense that it's basically a parody of night time soaps.

I love Shannen Doherty. Sure she's crazy and probably a bitch, but why are people really shocked to hear that? it beats being fake like a lot of celebrities these days. (: she's awesome. I hope her show airs in the UK!

Dig Deeper into Ringer
