WHAT WE’RE WATCHING:
THE BIG BANG THEORY (8PM CBS, CTV in Canada)
Ugly Betty’s first beau, Kevin Sussman decides to step up his game and romance Penny.
CHUCK (8PM NBC, CityTV in Canada)
If CHUCK does get the ax, it certainly won’t be due to a lack of promotable guest stars. Tonight, Chuck looks to his double-crossing ex-girlfriend Jill (Jordana Brewster) to help rescue his father (Scott Bakula) who has been abducted by Fulcrum forces (Chevy Chase). Meanwhile, at the Buy More, the nerd herd tries to derail a corporate evaluation supervised by Emmett (ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT’s Tony Hale)
GREEK (8PM ABC Family)
Casey wants Max and Cappie to get along, so she seeks advice from special guest star Janeane Garofalo. Who, you know, has a great track record at getting along with people (see: Bill O’Reilly)
HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER (8:30PM CBS, E! in Canada)
Have you met Ted’s new intern? Well, you will tonight when he sets up his very own architectural firm in his apartment.
CASTLE (10PM ABC)
It’s the case of yet another killer with little-to-no imagination who quite literally takes a page from one of Castle’s best-selling books. This time, it’s a ritualistic killing that draws Beckett and Castle into the world of Vodun, a mysterious religion Castle researched for a previous book.
NEW & NOTABLE:
HOUSE (8PM FOX, Global in Canada)
Silver lining to that whole shocking Kutner death… Cameron finally gets some screen time, with House assigning her the case of an environmental activist who collapsed at a protest demonstration.
24 (9PM FOX, Global in Canada)
Good News: Kim’s back. Better News: 100% cougar trap free!
HEROES (9PM NBC, 10PM Global in Canada)
In what we can only hope is a really cool flashback episode, tonight’s installment entitled ‘1961’ has Angela Petrelli delving into her past and revealing long-held secrets, while Mohinder finds out that his dad was involved in an old government operation… that if we had to guess judging from the episode’s not at all subtle title probably took place in 1961!
TONIGHT’S TWITTER PICK CONSENSUS:
@MystikalRose: Chuck! The show hasn’t disappointed me yet, unlike some other shows *coughs*Heroes…
@aliliz: Watching Chuck bc the story is getting better each week & hopefully it’s to set up season 3!! not finish the story this one 🙁
@Susanrae: Chuck. Never miss it…. and I hope NBC doesn’t make me miss it next season.
@randomlove36: watching Chuck b/c I will be devastated if it is canceled. Also himym, big bang, heroes, cupid, medium and greek.
@seh79: CHUCK!! b/c it is a great show that deserves to be renewed.
@MatejJ: Chuck, because we don’t want it to be canceled. Watch new House episode on DVR today!
@lillie4: I’ll be watching “Chuck”.
@AmandaKrups: Chuck, Medium, The Hills, Greek & How I Met Your Mother because they are AWESOME!!! (sung like Barney)
@rural_juror: CHUCK of course. The title alone makes it a must watch “Chuck Vs. the First Kill.” Plus it has Jordana Brewster as Jill again.
@elliebartowski: Chuck: In an effort to try and save the show, see the pivotal moment of Chuck killing someone, and well, I’m in love with them.
