Rebroadcast of the latest episode of Nip/Tuck (FX, 10pm - 11:05pm).
Miss the first episode of House (USA, 10pm) with special guest star David Morse? first in wh he guest stars. aired last week. the most recent one, wh I saw some of this Tue was the second. Morse is going to be on the show for a while, though I’m not sure I care for this storyline. Also in this episode: a young couple ends up in the hospital with some rather awful symptoms (of course).
Tritter: “You don’t introduce yourself?”
House: “Sorry, I thought you were waiting two hours, didn’t know you wanted to chat. Hi, I’m Greg! How ’bout that local sports team?”
so Tritter is played by Morse? (and char is a patient who is a lawyer no cop who in next episode undertakes to get House in trouble for forging sgnatureof his friend Wilson -my DeadPoetSociety guy RbtSeanLeonard- for painkiller prescriptn) the scene btw them is very good... House diagnoses with a glance, Tritter asks him to do a test, he says "sorry I've met my quota of useless tests done for idiots" and Tritter observes coolly: "You're rude. And smart, and funny." and sth about how he gets away with it bcs of his cane.. Tritter trips his cane as House starts out.
I’m still troubled by the fact that FOX mailed me a thermometer the day after this episode originally aired. bcs House leaves a Tritter with a thermometer in his rectum ( "drop your pants. you're chewing nicotine gum which alters the temperature in yr mouth so I'm going to have go vacationing elsewhere").

Someone is found dead on a party bus used for a series of tapes called “Babes Being Bad” on Law & Order (NBC, 9pm). C’mon, if you’re gonna ape “Girls Gone Wild” you gotta use a funnier name– I’m partial to the one used on Arrested Development: “Girls with Low Self-Esteem”. Did you know that right now you can buy all three season of Arrested Development on DVD for just $55? That’s less than $20 per set– what a deal! Sometimes I think it may be the funniest series ever, it’s certainly the funniest of the last ten years. And the DVD sets have cool extras including commentary tracks and deleted scenes. hmm.

I recently updated the current grid to reflect recent changes to the schedule (the pulling of Six Degrees for instance). yes, nice, notes on the changes in schedule, eg: In October, NBC moved Kidnapped from Wednesdays at 9pm to Saturdays at 8pm. Later in October, NBC pulled Kidnapped from the schedule entirely. Thirteen episodes will be made and will conclude the story, but the remaining episodes probably won’t air on NBC. NBC says they will be available online if nothing else; it’s also likely the series will receive a DVD release.
