Tonight’s TV Spotlight…Tuesday, February 16, 2010

Welcome to your Tuesday night TV spotlight! Before we get to the highlights of tonight’s TV lineup, please join me in wishing a very special birthday to my blogger BFF, Ducky! Yes, it’s Dan’s birthday today and I wish him nothing but the best on this special day. May all his dreams come true (including the dreams with special guest appearances by Travis Wall and Lee Pace).  HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DAN!!

As for tonight’s TV….YIKES! I can’t say there’s a ton on in terms of original programming, but what is on has me excited.  Two hours of IDOL and then LOST? Fine by me.  If you don’t watch either of these shows, then maybe tonight’s a TV catch-up night for you.  Or maybe you watch something on Tuesday nights that isn’t listed here. If so, be sure to let us know in the comments below!

What YOU are most excited to watch tonight?

American Idol | 8pm on Fox
“Hollywood Round #3”
The Hollywood round continues, with a gradually dwindling contingent of contestants vying for a slot in the Top 24. [GMMR: Yeah, how about that. Tomorrow night we’ll know some of the singers that have been named to this year’s Top 24. I’m officially excited about this season!]

Lost | 9pm on ABC
“The Substitute”
Locke goes in search of help to further his cause.[GMMR: Yup, that’s all I got for you. Can’t find a better ep description. Also, I wanted to apologize for no ‘Two Idiots Talk LOST’ week. Our second week and we failed. Well, I think the East Coast weathermen share in our blame as they predicted a massive snowstorm that didn’t happen the night we were supposed to podcast. But don’t you worry, we’ll be back talking LOST this week.]

The Forgotten | 10pm on ABC
“Mama Jane”
The team investigates the murder of a 40-year-old woman whose body was found at a bar. The investigation uncovers her desire to adopt a baby and her involvement with a star basketball player (Baron Davis).
