“30 Rock” on NBC at 8:00pm ET. Sixth season premiere. Just so you know, because of limited spaces, the full NBC comedy night of “30 Rock,” “Parks and Recreation,” “The Office,” and “Up All Night” is on with new episodes tonight. Enjoy!

“Bones” on Fox at 8:00pm ET. Seventh season winter finale.

“17th Annual Critics’ Choice Movie Awards” on VH1

“Rob” on CBS at 8:30pm ET. Series premiere. Finally! A show where I can enjoy Rob Schneider and “hilarious” stereotypes of Latino culture all in one place! Just what I’ve been looking for.

“The Finder” on Fox at 9:00pm ET. Series premiere. This show was given a ‘soft pilot’ in the form of “Bones” episode #6.19 which aired last April. (I did look that up, lest you think I’m that obsessed with “Bones.”) The premise is basically… the dude finds things. Via magic intuition, much like “House.” I wasn’t a huge fan of the premise or the aggressively weird characters, but I’ll give it a shot. Starring Geoff Stults, Michael Clarke Duncan, and Mercedes Masöhn.

I'd give it a shot just for the possibility of that wet t-shirt shot.

On the man or the woman?

Is that "jon vee ev" or "jenna veeve"?

Most frequently Jenna-veeve, since it's what my parents say and how I introduce myself, though I answer to both.

For some bizarrre reason, I saw that Bones ep, although I don't normally watch. It was: procedural + "wacky" characters who are alternately too serious/spouting "zingers". This ep screamed "IT'S A SPIN-OFF!!!" so hard, it was pretty off-putting.

Still, if you like that sort of thing, the production seemed decent. I hope they get rid of the lady with the accent. She was one of those cringe-worthy "omigod stop it nobody really acts like that in real life because you're not "wacky" you're just truly obnoxious seriously there's no laugh track here to back you up sister" types.

Having said that, MCD is a super cool dude. That man made "Armageddon" bearable; he can do anything.
