Monday’s TV Picks

So Hot

We at tvismyiv want to make sure you watch what you need to watch.  Each day we will post what you should watch live (keep in mind live means dvr and start watching once you can fast forward through the commercials which is usually 15 per one hour long show), dvr, and if we don’t mention it don’t watch it.

If you are like me you have the tv on 24/7, but for those of you with jobs you will start around 6:00pm EST: leave it on ESPN. Tonight’s match up may have been good if Tom Brady was playing and the Patriots were the Patriots of old (old being last year when they couldn’t be stopped by anyone except Manning, and not Peyton, Eli in the Super Bowl). It is still Monday Night Football and you should at least listen to the pregame as they try and hype up this awful match up.  I will be skipping the actual game tonight in favor of other programming.

8:00pm EST

Big Bang Theory (live) CBS– This show really appeals to the nerd in all of us, or to those of us that pretend we are totally awesome but are really just geeks.

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (DVR) FOX – This show is constantly rumored to be getting cancelled but I like it because of Summer Glau (photo at top).

Dancing with the Stars ABC – Even I am not that big of a loser.  If you watch this you are either a chick, a man forced by a chick (can you say whipped), a man that enjoys the company of other men, or a certain poster at www.monkeyblogmonkeydo.com (don’t get me wrong great blog just the guy may be a bigger loser than me….maybe)

Chuck (DVR/Live) NBC – Watch Big Bang Theory then go right over to Chuck.  Apparently Nicole Richie is on tonight and that interests me.  Could she be the shark that Chuck is going to jump?  I watch this show because it is a one hour comedy and who doesn’t watch a half hour sitcom and want more like Thanksgiving dinner.  Also there are always lovely coeds on (Nicole Richie excluded).

8:30pm EST

How I Met Your Mother (DVR) CBS – This show has become pretty popular and I haven’t fully committed to it so I dvr it and watch it when I have time.  I then can fit in at the bar when everyone talks about television shows (what do you mean that not what happens at bars…that explains why the lady friends always give me the cold shoulder). 

9:00pm EST

Heroes (DVR) NBC – I know most people watch this live or at least the same night but we recommend recording several and waiting a few weeks and watching several at once.  Trust me, it is like watching one of those comic book movies that have become so popular in recent years.

Two and a Half Men (DVR) CBS – See How I Met Your Mother

Prison Break (DVR) FOX – This show got me hooked when they were actually breaking out of prison.  Now they are chasing some black book of some “company” that runs the world.  The writers of this show are started to be as bad as Mel Gibson in “Conspiracy Theory”.

10:00pm EST

My Own Worst Enemy (DVR) NBCChristian Slater on tv enough said.

Boston Legal (DVR) ABCMurphy Brown and Captain Kirk in a show about legal stuff…I watch periodically but don’t plan on me talking about it often.

CSI: Miami CBS – There is only one CSI in my book and that is one takes place in a little place called Las Vegas.

Raising the Bar (DVR) TNT – Anything with Zach Morris and I am there.  Just like when he was on “the Blue” I will watch every episode waiting for Albert Clifford “AC” Slater and Samuel “Screech” Powers to come help him out. 

11:00pm EST

ESPN (Live) – Time to see if Jay Cutler got me the 90 points I need to win my Fantasy Football match up….it could happen….stop laughing….

***note – if you have a show you would like us to talk about post a comment and we will try, unless the show is awful in which case we will just make fun of that show and you.

I refuse to show you what a lemon party is. But it makes this “30 Rock” episode a lot better:
