5 Shows After Dark

“One Tree Hill” on The CW at 8:00pm ET. Ninth season premiere. I’ve never been able to pin down what this show is about besides a tenuous connection to high school, basketball, and Chad Michael Murray and apparently that last one hasn’t been involved for quite some time. I suppose I could watch the show and find out, but why on earth would I go and do a thing like that?

“Are You There, Chelsea” on NBC at 8:30pm ET. Series premiere. I’m not sure what possessed the foulmouthed, substance abusing, deadpan Handler to move her show to a network and time slot that is all about… none of those things but I suspect the words “cash up front” were involved.

“The 38th People’s Choice Awards” on CBS at 9:00pm ET.

“Happy Endings” on ABC at 9:30pm ET.

“Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” on NBC at 10:00pm ET. 13th season winter premiere. Anyone keeping up with the show now that Detective Stabler is gone? How’s that working out for them?

RE: Law & Order:SVU --

To answer your second question: Poorly.

I don't think the show will last more than one more season. Having to sit through an hour of torturous child-raping without even the possibility of the "Intense Christopher Meloni Eyes Close-Up Shot"(TM) is really not worth it.

Season 2 of FaceOff on SyFy kicks off tonight at 10PM. It's the Hollywood makeup effects reality show. The first challenge is recreating the leads in The Wizard of Oz and it looks to be a doozy. Plus, the judges actually judge and the contestants have to have actual skills and talent to compete.

I need a peek at Stabler's ample ass posthaste. At least I have OZ on DVD, and he'll be a True Blood-er soon enough.

Happy Endings was just retarded tonight.

Sorry Haplo but it was.
