When Principal Skinner gets fed up with Bart’s constant pranks, he reveals to him that there is a former Springfield Elementary student who is hailed as the best prankster ever. Enter Andy Hamilton (guest voice Jonah Hill), who at 19-years-old still hasn’t grown out of his pranking days in THE SIMPSONS November 22 episode entitled “Pranks and Greens.”

Because threesomes are, like you know so last week, leave it to creator Ryan Murphy to up the ante by putting the entire McKinley High gang in bed together…. when New Directions performs in a local commercial in the December 2nd episode of GLEE entitled “Mattress.”

What’s the only thing more shocking than BATTELSTAR GALACTICA star Katee Sackhoff showing up as a vision in Wolowtiz’s bathtub to offer up relationship advice? How about Wolowitz in a relationship! Which is the situation he finds himself in on the Monday November 23 episode of THE BIG BANG THEORY entitled “The Vengeance Formulations.”

On the December 9th episode of COUGAR TOWN, Bill Lawrence repertory player Scott Foley strolls into town to play a very wealthy potential home buyer who feigns interest in an overpriced home in order to (successfully, by the looks of it) get Jules’ attention.

When BETTER OFF TED returns for an unexpected (albeit very welcome) second season, so to does the evil (albeit unintentionally hilarious) corporation that is Veridian Dynamics. A corporation that on December 8th will attempt to curb the cost of employee health benefits by genetically matching employees. A program we should mention the usually skeptical Linda will find herself, well digging, upon learning that her match is none other than Greg (played by special guest star Taye Diggs)

In celebration of THE SIMPSONS 20th Anniversary, FOX is giving fans a real treat. For the first time in a decade they network is actually airing the annual “Treehouse of Horror” Halloween special before October 31. In the tradition of Halloween specials, “Treehouse of Horror XX” airing Sunday October 18 at 8PM on FOX (GlobalTV in Canada) will parody classic Hitchcock films such as “Vertigo,” “Psycho,” “North By Northwest,’ and “Spellbound,” when Lisa strikes a deal with Bart to take revenge on their teachers; Lampoon “28 Days Later,” when Krusty’s latest fast food sandwich transforms Springfield into enraged zombies; And re-imagine “Sweeney Todd” when an impaled Homer (who falls through a trapdoor in Moe’s tavern) provides Moe with an unexpectedly delicious beer flavored with Homer’s blood. More photos of which can be seen after the jump.

Krusty’s latest fast food sandwich transforms Springfield into engraged zombies and twenty-eight days later, these munchers have overrun the town.

Homer accidentally falls through a trapdoor in Moe’s tavern and impales himself on the pipes of Moe’s microbrewery. Moe serves Marge and the barflies glasses of delicious beer flavored with Homer’s blood while Homer, now half-man, half-brewing apparatus, trapped underneath the bar sings about his fate a’la Sweeney Todd.

Lisa strikes a deal with Bart to take revenge on their teachers, but whenthe pan goes awry Lisa turns her vengence towards Bart in a series of homages to classic Hitchcock, including “Vertigo,” “Psycho,” “North By Northwest” and “Spellbound.”

Good News: SUPER SIZE ME’s Morgan Spurlock will produce and direct THE SIMPSONS 20th ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL IN 3-D ON ICE. Bad News: The special won’t actually be in 3-D or on ice! [Source]

Good News: Arguably, television’s most memorable survivor Richard Hatch was this close to returning to the series that put him on the map (and ironically enough, in jail for tax evasion) for SURVIVOR’s 10th anniversary “Heroes Vs. Villains” edition Bad News: Until that is, a federal judge in Rhode Island denied his request to leave home confinement early. [Source]

HUNG (10PM HBO)
THE PUNISHER’s Thomas Jane stars as a high school gym teacher who looks to turn his life around with the help of his biggest err… asset.

NEW & NOTABLE:
BET AWARDS (8PM BET)
As the saying goes, the show must go on. Which is why tonight’s Jamie Foxx hosted BET awards is dedicated to Michael Jackson.

MERLIN (8PM NBC)
How the mighty have…. Merlin’d? Michelle Ryan goes from headlining her very-own high profile series BIONIC WOMAN to playing a evil sorceress in back-to-back installments of this NBC summer filler series.

IMPACT (9PM ABC)
David James Elliot and Natasha Henstridge have only 39 days to save Earth from a collision with the moon! Which coincidentally enough, is probably the exact same number of people who care about the outcome of tonight’s ‘thrilling’ conclusion.

THE SIMPSONS (8PM FOX)
After swarms of unemployed workers from Ogdenville descend on Springfield, the mayor closes the borders and citizen Homer goes on border patrol. Which, as any SIMPSONS fans will tell you, means you should expect power to go to Homer’s head by… what, the eleven minute mark?

FAMILY GUY (9PM FOX)
Now far be it from us to suggest yet another alterna-”mother” theory, but is anyone else the least bit suspicious that all three male stars of HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER (Jason Segel, Neil Patrick Harris and Josh Radnor) are providing cameos on tonight’s FAMILY GUY season finale? Think about it.

DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES (9PM ABC, CTV in Canada)
Good News: After a five year flash-forward and 22 episodes of waiting, Dave’s endgame finally comes to a close. Bad News: For Susan and MJ.

NEW & NOTABLE:
OUTBREAK (7PM AMC)
Just in time for the hysteria surrounding Swine Flu to have died down comes a film about a scientific team trying to stamp out a killer virus in a small California town. Good timing AMC, really, well done.

EXTREME MAKEOVER: HE (8PM ABC, E! in Canada)
After a single dad and three boys get their home re-built by the NBA’s Indiana Pacers. We ponder, as we do every Sunday, just how bad we would be willing to have it in order to get our very own Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. I mean seriously, have you seen those houses?

SURVIVOR: TOCANTINS (8PM CBS, Global in Canada)
The tribe speaks for the last time, awarding one lucky Survivor 1 million dollars. (Editor’s note: Just how evident is it that we haven’t watched this show since Africa?)

LAW & ORDER: CI (9PM USA)
WEST WING Alum Alert: Janel Moloney guest stars.

IN PLAIN SIGHT (10PM USA)
WEST WING Alum Alert Part II: An orthodox Jewish witness (not played by Richard Schiff!) realizes he’s being followed by a strange man (played by Richard Schiff). Betcha didn’t see that one coming!

FAMILY GUY (9PM FOX, Global in Canada)
Unfortunately, the same can’t be said for FAMILY GUY, which in only their eighth season, really has no excuse for tonight’s Stephen King inspired tale. That said, since Seth MacFarlane and Co. are skewering three of our all-time favorite movies — Stand By Me, Misery and The Shawshank Redemption — we’re gonna go ahead and give them a pass on this one.

DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES (9PM ABC, CTV in Canada)
The word on Wisteria Lane is “Deception,” with tonight’s installment having Bree lying to Orson, Katherine lying to Mike, Susan and Jackson lying to the authorities and Tom lying about his age.

BROTHERS & SISTERS (10PM ABC, Global in Canada)
Swine Flu be damned! Or at least that is what Nora Walker must be thinking when she heads down to Mexico to knock some sense into Tommy in tonight’s BROTHERS & SISTERS third season finale.

NEW & NOTABLE:
FROM THE TOP AT CARNEGIE HALL (10:30PM PBS)
Wondering what you could have accomplished if you weren’t blessed cursed with an incurable addiction to television? Meet 12-year-old violinist Anna Lee, 11-year-old pianist Alice Bural and 13-year-old cellist Taeguk Mun. Three talented youngsters who probably watch less TV than you or I. Not that there’s anything wrong with that!

FAMILY GUY (8PM FOX, Global in Canada)
Further evidence that actual talent is not a prerequisite for providing a guest voice on the Seth MacFarlane laugher comes Wentworth Miller and Chace Crawford who lend their voice to tonight’s episode playing high school students (Further cementing our theory is next week’s special guest star Lauren Conrad.)

DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES (9PM ABC, CTV in Canada)
ZZZZZzzzz…. sorry, what’s that? Last week’s tribute to Edie is finally over? Phew.

BROTHERS & SISTERS (10PM ABC, Global in Canada)
Growing tired of waiting for Tommy’s return, Julia takes a long hard look at her future. Which we’re just gonna go ahead and say, doesn’t look good. I mean just ask Joe (John Pyper-Ferguson) how he’s doing following his divorce from Sara.

NEW & NOTABLE:
ANY DREAM WILL DO (8PM BBC America)
Aspiring actors vie for the lead role in “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.” Soon to be “Josephine and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” if Sir Andrew Lloyd Weber and Susan Boyle have their way.

THE 2009 TV LAND AWARDS (8:30PM TV Land)
While the evening’s honorees include M*A*S*H, HOME IMPROVEMENT, MAGNUM, P.I., Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Don Rickles, all one really needs to know is that it’s hosted by future TV land honoree and current awesomeee Neil Patrick Harris (and yes, we’re aware that ‘awesomeee’ is not actually word; But frankly, we’re so over the ‘Legen…. (wait for it)…. dary’ gag)

Anne Hathaway has officially arrived. Following in the footsteps of her Devil Wears Prada co-star Meryl Streep (who fans will remember as Bart’s first girlfriend Jessica Lovejoy), Hathaway will lend her voice to THE SIMPSONS on April 19, playing Jenny, a sweet 5th grade girl who catches Bart’s eye.

KINGS (8PM NBC, CityTV in Canada)
Remember friends, if this show gets cancelled and replaced with a third hour of CELEBRITY APPRENTICE, you only have yourself to blame. We’re just sayin’

BIG LOVE (9PM HBO)
In what is sure to be a BIG season finale, expect BIG surprises (courtesy of an unexpected visitor for Nicki), BIG potential cast changes (when Sarah reveals her future plans *cough*cough*movie career*cough) and a BIG cliffhanger (which may-or-may-not have to do with Bill’s plot to vanquish Roman and the Greenes once and for all.)

AMERICAN DAD (9:30PM FOX, GlobalTV in Canada)
Steve and his friends sabotage a stuck-up kid’s bar mitzvah (as this TV Addict’s inner-thirteen-year-old Jewboy cheers!)

BROTHERS & SISTERS (10PM ABC, GlobalTV in Canada)
Justin is suspicious of Ryan’s interest in Rebecca. Ditto.

WHAT WE’RE WATCHING:
CRAIG FERGUSON: A WEE BIT O’ REVOLUTION (10PM Comedy Central)
Comic and LATE LATE SHOW host Craig Ferguson performs in Boston at the Wilbur Theater. Topics include rehab, hanging out with junkies and Bond… James Bond.
