Tonight’s TV Spotlight…Tuesday, February 3, 2009

Tuesday is another packed night of TV, but after Monday’s assault on the DVR Tuesday’s almost seem like a breath of fresh air.  I’m wildly excited about all the shows that are on tonight.  I fell a bit behind on FRINGE so hopefully I can catch up on last week before tonight’s episode airs.  I feel like I’m doing wrong by Joshua Jackson – I promise I’ll catch up, Pace.  Sorry.

Here’s a little of what I’ll be watching…what about YOU?!

American Idol | 8pm on Fox
Hollywood Round 1
Singers compete in the Hollywood Round in hope of becoming a semifinalist. [GMMR: Hollywood! Hollywood! So excited for tonight.  I know there’s still going to be too much drama for my liking but at least we’ll hear some decent vocals.]

Scrubs | 9pm on ABC
“My New Role”
Dr. Cox becomes overwhelmed in his new role as chief of medicine and reaches out to Dr. Kelso for friendship.. [GMMR: I thought SCRUBS was on Wednesday nights.  Not for nothing, but the big move from NBC to ABC hasn’t done much for the buzz of the show.  Fail?]

Privileged | 9pm on The CW
“All About Confessions”
Charlie kisses Megan; Miles’ daughter approaches Rose; Sage fears that Luis will be upset that she is a virgin. [GMMR: Holy spoiler filled ep description. Yowza! Looks like it’s going to be a good one tonight. And since we are already talking spoilers, then it must be known that tonight is the last time we’ll be seeing Charlie for some time.  And no, I don’t want to talk about it.  I’m too sad…and a bit angry]

The team finds freakish remains at the crash site of an international jumbo jet; with answers just out of reach, Olivia and Peter decide to go under cover.

Law & Order: Special Victims Unit | 10pm on NBC

When a young girl is kidnapped, Elliot Stabler must work with a recently paroled convict to get her back.[GMMR: I wonder what will become of SVU when Leno takes over the time slot next year? Hmm.]
