8pm – While the pull of nostalgia is strong over at ABC (they’re playing, um, Shrek the Halls and How the Grinch Stole Christmas!), upChuck is brand new on NBC, so you might want to look there. Is it just me, or doesn’t Chuck seem to be a bit too old to be playing store clerk/spy? And doesn’t it seem convenient how often he gets “flashes” right before they need them?
9pm – It must be NBC’s lucky day. Heroes is a must-see. It’s not often enough you get to see a train wreck in action. Hiro is going to get his memory back via comic books. Brilliant!
10pm – The final bone is being thrown to ABC’s Boston Legal as it nears the end of its five-season run. Betty White guest stars, plus Captain Kirk comes to terms with his impending Alzheimer’s. Oh, the laughs to be had…

Yvonne Strahovski... and that guy who plays Chuck.
