What to Watch…Monday, October 27, 2008

Listen up – Fox has baseball tonight and CBS has a full night of reruns.  That means that your schedule should be free enough to watch CHUCK at 8pm on NBC and then turn on the DVR and watch the episode of GOSSIP GIRL that you recorded while you were watching CHUCK.  Thanks to Fox and CBS for making it that easy.

“Hey brother.” Tonight is a big night for ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT fans as Tony Hale (aka Buster Bluth) is guesting on both CHUCK and SAMANTHA WHO?.  I knew both these guest spots were coming, but I didn’t think they would be on the same night. “And that’s why you don’t use a one-armed person to scare someone!”

One last thing… As I mentioned on Friday, we are doing the prep work necessary for the upcoming relaunch of GiveMeMyRemote.com. Since the backend upgrade on Friday the site has been noticeably slower. We are aware of it and working on it. I do apologize. Things will be back to normal soon. I promise.

Ok, now on to the shows…

Chuck | 8pm on NBC
Life in espionage takes its toll on Chuck, and he is forced to try to explain his unusual behavior to the Buy More efficiency expert (Tony Hale); a global terrorist comes looking for Jeff. [GMMR: I’m not sure if I could be any more excited to see Tony Hale guest on CHUCK tonight. It’s finally here!  Oh and P.S. – CHUCK has been hurting in the ratings, so do me a favor and tune in already!!! ]
