Mad Men (AMC) — Tonight: Don and Betty have an awkward dinner with the new British boss; Roger begins planning for his wedding (read: we get to see Jane – yay!); Peggy actually gets a story line this time.
True Blood (HBO) — Evan Rachel Wood is supposed to be in three episodes this season. We haven’t seen her yet and there are only three episodes left, so I’m guessing she’s gonna show up just in time to F up that annoying Maryann.
Miss Universe Pageant (NBC) — It’s like the United Nations of hot chicks. Urdouche Billy Bush co-hosts the event with “Deal or No Deal” suitcase holder Claudia Jordan. Delightful gallery of the contestants here.
Patton Oswalt: My Weakness is Strong (Comedy Central) — New one-hour special from my third-favorite stand-up comedian working today (1. Chappelle 2. Louis CK. 3. Patton Oswalt 4. Jim Gaffigan). Damn, I’m gonna be up late watching a lotta DVR’d TV tonight.
Kourtney and Khloé Take Miami (E!) — The other day I challenged myself to watch as much of this show as I could tolerate. I made it through a minute and 23 seconds.
Merlin (NBC) — Oh hey, this show existed. It’s the season finale.
There Goes the Neighborhood (CBS) — This debuted without me noticing because I was on vacation and never watch CBS. Anyway, this is the show where an entire neighborhood block is walled in and the families can’t leave. It’s a big hit with prisoners and survivors of the Warsaw ghetto.

RE: MadMen – We didn’t get to see Jane! You lying liar, why do you lie!
Your list is pretty comparable to mine, except I’d have Daniel Tosh on there somewhere, and maybe Greg Giraldo at the end of the list.
Second week in a row Mad Men has given us a chick’s naked back and a hint of side-boob. Bad news: it was Elizabeth Moss and not any of the multitude of hot chicks on the show.
But on the plus side, it looks like Don will soon be banging his kids’ teacher, so that’s a plus.
He’s right, Jonathan. You’re not. Because if there’s one guy who knows a lot about assholes… it’s Matt.
Very angry still no shots of Jane on Mad Men
Wasn’t being touchy, I was genuinely curious. And I wanted to clarify my point. You’re not half the asshole that essequemodeia is.
wow, Matt, you’re getting a little touchy with the commenters.
As for clubs, I don’t go to too many comedy clubs, but over the last two or so years I’ve seen Patton Oswalt, Paul F Thompkins & Zach Galifianakis at Largo a bunch of times, usually opening for some small L.A. musician.
To be clear, I wasn’t disparaging Chappelle, I think he’s hilarious, I just wasn’t aware that he was actively touring.
ZOMG! Four whole days ago! Including the weekend when I wasn’t working???? Holy fuck I should quit and let you run this blog! What shame I feel!
Tosh needs to be on that list. Homework!!111

4 days ago. Homework.
I’m curious how much stand-up you watch in comedy clubs, Jonathan. I caught Chappelle announced at the Comedy Cellar last year. It’s why I think he’s the best. Louis CK may have better material, but no one’s delivery is better than Chappelle’s. Dude could read Faulkner and kill.
Chapelle still qualifies as “working standup”? I mean, the other three can be counted on to show up with new material several times a year at clubs.
I’d swap Gaffigan and Patton. And who the fuck are the people that think Brian Regan is the best comedian out there? I just don’t get that and yet I hear it more than I’d like.
Totally agree that Chappelle is #1 and Louis CK is #2. If I saw Louis CK live I could see myself changing. But Chappelle live? I have absolutely never laughed harder in my life.
Yeah, so that dude who killed his stripper ex-wife and removed her fingers/teeth before stuffing her into suitcase?
Yeah, he’s dead now too.
Chappelle before CK?! We will have to agree to disagree.
@DG — My bad. It didn’t pop up as “New” in the TV Guide listings so I overlooked it. It’s been added.
No love for the new Patton Oswalt standup special on Comedy Central tonight?
I know it’s blasphemous to include a show that’s on during Mad Men (how dare I?), but that’s why God invented DVR.
There Goes the Neighborhood probably would have been a better show if they had made it into a Nazi comedy, kind of like Hogan’s Heroes.
