real-housewives-jerseyBy comparison, the state of New Jersey looks pretty good.

Real Housewives of New Jersey (Bravo) — Been craving a fourth installment of this series?  You and me neither.

Fringe (Fox) — Season finale; Leonard Nimoy guest-stars.  Okay, okay, we get it: J.J. Abrams has a hard-on for the original Spock.  Now stop trying to make him relevant.

American Idol (Fox) — Only two more weeks, people, and then we’re safe for a couple of months.  By the way, it’s the 300th episode of the show tonight.  They add up fast when it’s on the air twice a week.

90210 (CW) — It’s an episode about prom.  I hate episodes about prom.

Rescue Me (FX) — Tommy takes Genevieve on a tour of Ground Zero.  Good luck fighting through all the tourists, bub.

Deadliest Catch (Discovery) — I’m only watching if this is Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus.

NBA Playoffs (TNT) — A pair of Game 5s in what have been close series: Magic-Celtics in Boston followed by Rockets-Lakers in L.A.  Come for the basketball, stay for the endless Charles Barkley T-Mobile commercials.
