Why Aren't You Watching.... Tuesday Edition (Abbreviated)
Well this whole political season is playing havoc with my ability to watch television. It's very frustrating. That said, watch the VP debate. Should be entertaining.
At 8pm check out Gilmore Girls on WB. With Aaron Sorkin gone (for now) from the TV landscape this stands out as the most sharply written show around. It's light and fun and if you're a young thirtysomething mom with a teenage daughter you'll be able to relate.
Also at 8pm Tivo Last Comic Standing. By Tivoing it you can skip Jay Mohr (who's not so funny) and all the other crap in between the stand-up portions of the show.
At 9pm give Veronica Mars a try on UPN. It's an interesting take on a young girl who's an outcast by day and remains an outcast at night, but helps her dad who is a private detective. He used to be the sheriff but he accused the richest man in town of killing his own daughter and lost his job and his wife. We still don't know what happened, I'm sure we'll find out eventually either in a November, February or May if this show makes it that long.
At 10pm there's nothing on the networks tonight thanks to the debates, but you should be watching Real World Philadelphia. Cause The Real World is still cool and it's in Philly which makes it doubly good.
