Tonight’s TV Spotlight…Sunday, August 9, 2009

It’s one of those Sundays where you really can’t complain that nothing is on TV. Tonight’s spotlight is jam packed with so much to watch that your DVR might be working extra hard. I know mine will. And the crazy part is, I feel like I just highlighted some of the many new shows on tonight. It’s almost like I can smell Fall programming!

As for my personal TV lineup, well it will definitely include TRUE BLOOD, HUNG (although I might TiNo that until tomorrow) and of course ENTOURAGE, which will be extra special tonight as Patriots QB Tom Brady will be guesting.  Hello Tommy!!  But the highlight of tonight’s schedule is the season premiere of AMERICA’S BEST DANCE CREW!  A must watch for all SYTYCD fans.  We’ll be talking about it here on GMMR, so don’t miss out!

Here’s a few shows for you to choose from.  Drop me a comment and let me know what YOU will be watching!
