WHAT WE’RE WATCHING:
TERMINATOR: TSCC (8PM FOX, “A” in Canada)
Get ready for the Odd Couple Version 2.0 when Derek tries to work with Cameron after she reveals a secret.
DOLLHOUSE (9PM FOX, Global in Canada)
Hooray! It’s safe to return to the DOLLHOUSE, or to quote the far more eloquent Ken Tucker, “perform a wipe on your DOLLHOUSE memories (especially that cringey Echo-as-rock-chick-back-up-singer episode) and tune in.”
FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS (9PM NBC, E! in Canada)
Just in time for Buddy to have lost her entire college fund, Lyla learns that she has been accepted to her dream school. Aawwwkkkward.
NEW & NOTABLE:
20/20 (10PM ABC)
That noise you just heard was Aaron Spelling rolling over in his grave upon discovering that Candy Spelling will be hocking her upcoming book in an interview with Elisabeth Vargas.
As promised, Friday’s sixth episode of DOLLHOUSE didn’t disappoint. Please tell me it wasn’t an aberration. — DrunkonDushku
The TV Addict: Rest assured, it wasn’t. With Whedon’s winning streak continuing this Friday when he reveals more of Echo’s backstory by sending her on a mission back to the very College campus that we’ve become accustomed to catching glimpses of in the mysterious ‘Caroline’ video. Fans will also learn how Sierra ended up in the Dollhouse, when she confronts the man responsible for putting her there (and trust me, it ain’t pretty.) Oh, and as for the big reveal that there are twenty or so Dollhouses strategically located around the world, Whedon joked on a recent conference call that it’s built-in franchising. In other-words, get ready for DOLLHOUSE: MIAMI!
What’s the word on tonight’s GOSSIP GIRL? — GossipGuy
The TV Addict: Does “ZZZZZZzzzzzz” count as a word? Because unfortunately, that is my reaction to tonight’s snooze-inducing Nate-centric story-line. Seriously. If the Dollhouse ever needs another pretty-boy to walk around with a vapid and emotionless expression on his face, Chace Crawford is their man. So much so that not even an inebriated and highly entertaining secret-spilling Blair could save tonight’s train-wreck of an episode.
Loved Friday’s episode of TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR chronicles, how about you? — LenaLikey
The TV Addict: You mean the one where John Connor finally grew a pair. No exaggeration, scenes like John’s confrontation with Jesse are why PVR’s were invented (Well, that and because it allowed me to attend my BSG Frakkin’ Finale Party worry-free.) John’s transformation from petulant emo-boy was long overdue and I for one loved getting to see a glimpse of the young man who has finally started to demonstrate that he has what it takes to fight for humanity’s future. A fight, which by the way, just got a whole lot more interesting with Friday’s future-reveal that not all robots are on the same side.

WHAT WE’RE WATCHING:
TERMINATOR: TSCC (8PM FOX, “A” in Canada)
John makes a pivotal decision. One that we can only hope doesn’t involve his oft-maligned hairstyle. Again.
DOLLHOUSE (9PM FOX, GlobalTV in Canada)
It’s the one fans have been waiting for. Especially after Eliza Dushku’s February 27 interview where she let it slip that DOLLHOUSE “really took off” (read: becomes watchable) with tonight’s game-changer of an episode.
FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS (9PM NBC, E! in Canada)
Landy tires of Tyra’s selfish behavior. And you know what? Kudos to him. Because quite frankly, we tired of Tyra’s selfish behavior a good four episodes ago.
BATTLESTAR GALACTICA (9PM SyFy, Space in Canada)
None of this has happened before, and none of this will happen again. So be sure to set your PVR to record 11 minutes long, as you’d hate to miss the ending of this super-sized series finale.

WHAT WE’RE WATCHING:
TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES (8PM FOX)
In the first of a two-parter, John and his mom prepare to pack up and hit the road. As anyone who has ever been a teenager will tell you, nothing sucks more than having to be the new guy every few months. Even if you are hot and your mom’s a babe.
DOLLHOUSE (9PM FOX, Global in Canada)
Echo has to infiltrate a cult to rescue a woman being held against her will. The only problem: She has to do it as a visually impaired woman! Oh, those wacky imprinters! You know, the more I think about it, the more this seems kinda like CHARLIE’S ANGELS, what with the having to pretend to be different people every week and the hot chick and all.
FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS (9PM NBC, E! in Canada)
It ain’t easy dating a Riggins boy, but it does give Lyla and Mindy something to commiserate over. Meanwhile, Billy’s depressed, Tyra deals with her regrets and the women in Matt’s life clash. Okay, place your bets: Will his mom or grandma come out on top? My money’s on grandma. Old people play dirty!
BATTLESTAR GALACTICA (10PM Sci Fi, SPACE in Canada)
In part one of the two-part series finale, Adama seeks out volunteers for a final mission. Frak, I’m already missing this show… how long until CAPRICA debuts?

Laugh: At Ricky Gervais and his new comedy-partner-in-crime Elmo in these hilarious out-takes from his recent visit to Sesame Street. Stephen Merchant, be afraid… be very afraid. [Watch]
Applaud: NBC, for recognizing the greatness that is FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS by starting negotiations with DirecTV for not just one, but two-seasons of the best show that you — yes YOU — aren’t watching. [Source: EW]
Discuss: Whether or not the Parent’s Television Council finally has the right to be incensed with FAMILY GUY following Sunday’s hilarious, albeit somewhat borderline inappropriate episode that included Stewie eating a bowl of cereal with horse sperm instead of milk and a horse licking Peter’s bare behind. [Source: B&C]
Learn: That if you’re anything like this TV Addict, the CW’s BODY POLITIC just became the fall’s most anticipated new series thanks to today’s announcement that FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS’ Minka Kelly and VERONICA MARS’ Jason Dohring will be two of the bodies politic-ing it up in this Washington D.C. based show. [Source: THR]
WHAT WE’RE WATCHING:
TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES (8PM FOX)
The reoccurrence of Cameron’s glitch probably isn’t a good sign for Riley, who worries that Cameron has learned the truth about her.
DOLLHOUSE (9PM FOX, Global in Canada)
Echo’s stint as a safecracker doesn’t go as planned. Which hardly comes as a surprise considering this show would be quite the bore-fest if everything, you know, actually went as planned!
FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS (9PM FOX, E! in Canada)
Will a sports agency in New York show Jason Street the money? Is our use of “show me the money” dating theTVaddict.com? Discuss amongst yourselves.
BATTLESTAR GALACTICA (10PM Sci Fi, Space in Canada)
In what has uplifting episode written all over it, Helo copes with the abduction of Hera while Galactica’s damages overwhelm the crew’s repair efforts.
WHAT WE’RE WATCHING:
TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES (8PM FOX)
Nightmares of cancellation drive Sarah to visit a sleep clinic.
DOLLHOUSE (8PM FOX)
Echo provides protection to a pop star. Chris Brown best be watching his back.
FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS (9PM FOX, “A” in Canada)
Hey FNL fans, the TV Addict has a message for you. Click here to check it out… and pass it on.
BATTLESTAR GALACTICA (10PM Sci Fi, Space in Canada)
Can’t wait until 10PM, click here for the lowdown on what you can expect from tonight’s installment. It ain’t pretty.
NEW & NOTABLE:
FLASHPOINT (9PM CBS, CTV in Canada)
In the latest installment of what not to do during the mortgage meltdown, three men take the CEO of a mortgage company hostage after they lose all their money in a mortgage scheme.
WHAT WE’RE WATCHING:
TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES (8PM FOX)
Sarah (alongside a somewhat bewildered TV Addict) go looking for answers regarding the decimated factory as to why none of you are watching her show.
FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS (9PM NBC)
Just when we were starting to warm up to the new Tim Riggins, he goes ahead and does something boneheaded like trying to get the team to accept freshman QB J.D. McKoy. We’re just sayin’, for the record, we’re on Team Saracen 110%.
DOLLHOUSE (9:01PM FOX, Global in Canada)
Naysayers pointed to low ratings for the premiere. But few noted that the show gave DOLLHOUSE its best Friday ratings among the much-coveted young adult demo in, like, forever. Tonight, someone gets closer to uncovering Echo’s true identity even as she is being tracked by an expert hunter.
BATTLESTAR GALACTICA (10PM Sci Fi, Space in Canada)
Ellen Tigh’s reunion with the Final Five rocks the Galactica in more ways then one. Boom chica boom boing pow. Okay, so porno music doesn’t exactly translate into words, but nonetheless, we think you know where we’re going with this. And if you don’t, you may have spent too many Friday’s at home watching Sci Fi (not that there’s anything wrong with that)
REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER (10PM HBO)
While CouchTater is quick to point out that “the basic flaw of this program is that everything these folks (including this week’s guest Tina Brown) talked about has been discussed to death over the course of the week.” This TV Addict is only too happy to listen to more of the same Octomom/Obama talk when it’s coming out of the mouth of the hilarious and irreverent Bill Maher.

Good News: Last night’s return of TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES delivered one of its most exciting hours to date. Bad News: One that unfortunately also has the distinction of attracting its lowest audience to date, plunging 27% below its previous series low.
Good News: Joss Whedon’s DOLLHOUSE helped FOX double its viewership levels among women. Bad News: Which sure sounds a heck of a lot better than Joss Whedon’s DOLLHOUSE only managing to attract 4.7 million viewers.
Good News: Thanks to the welcome return of Jason Street and the hilarity that was Tim Riggins constantly repeating (Buddy Garrity’s one line) “When all the scared rats run away from the sinking market, that’s when the real entrepreneurs step in. The true visionaries” FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS continues to score… Bad News: A mere four million viewers a night… way to drop the ball America.
WHAT WE’RE WATCHING:
TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES (8PM FOX, “A” in Canada)
This TV Addict’s “nerd-tastic” evening of Sci Fi goodness commences when fatal consequences result after Catherine Weaver becomes protective of John Henry. Fatal consequences?! We can’t wait!
DOLLHOUSE (9PM FOX. Global in Canada)
After gigabytes of valuable bandwidth wasted with endless rumors and speculation, the internets will finally get to see what they’ve been scrutinizing for the better part of a year now.
FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS (9PM FOX)
Jason’s gotta figure out a way to support Erin and his son. See, that’s one of the things that makes this show so great: The people feel real and — most of the time — face real problems. Unfortunately, folks still aren’t tuning in, as proven by the fact that last week, this show had viewer viewers than HOWIE DO IT. Heck, it had viewer viewers than FUEGO EN LA SANGRE on Univision. Seriously.
BATTLESTAR GALACTICA (10PM Sci Fi, Space in Canada)
At long last, Ellen reunites with her people. Gee, wonder how that’s gonna go? Think she’ll be happy to find out about Saul and that trampy Six? I’m thinking “not!”
