Jon & Kate Plus 8 (TLC) — Ever since Friday, there’s been an endless stream of stories about tonight’s “special episode” with a “big announcement” about the “new direction” in their lives.  Golly, what could it possibly be?

Run’s House (MTV) — The Run family is shocked that Rev’s son JoJo has been booked for possession of marijuana.  OMG!  A teenager doing pot!?!?!  What is the world coming to?

The Secret Life of the American Teenager (ABC Family) — Thankfully, on ABC Family, teenagers don’t do pot.  Get pregnant and have kids, sure.  But that’s just because they say no to drugs and condoms.

The Bachelorette (ABC) — Two hours for eight guys to get whittled down to three.  Do you really want to spend one-twelfth of your day watching “The Bachelorette”?

The Closer (TNT) — Mary McDonnell of “Battlestar Galactica” fame guest stars.  I’d give that a thumbs-up or a thumbs-down, but that’s more effort than I care to make.

New York Goes to Work (VH1) — Frankly, I’d like to see her get a job in an Asian massage parlor.  Or would she be considered overqualified for that?
