(Make sure to check out TV Envy’s Programming Schedule.)
MONDAY (11/9)
- Two and a Half Men (CBS, 9pm): “Charlie and Alan wake up together…with a woman they don’t recognize.” Strange, but significantly less awkward than two and a half men.
- CSI: Miami (CBS, 10pm): “Ray Langston of the Las Vegas crime lab arrives in Miami to investigate after a severed leg found in the Everglades is discovered to belong to a girl who disappeared in Las Vegas a week earlier.” Horatio + Morpheus = sunglasses showdown.
- Little People, Big World (TLC, 10pm): “Jake gets his own cell phone for his 12th birthday, and before long he racks up an outrageous bill, making Matt and Amy question whether he s ready for the responsibility.” The Learning Channel is not known for highlighting responsibility—in pre-teens or fathers of eight.

VIDEO: Taylor Swift Sings About Jonas, Lautner and West
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Late Night, NBC, Saturday Night Live, Video,
Even though Taylor Swift is only 19 years old, the singer has already had enough drama in her life to fill up a number of country songs…or just one Saturday Night Live musical monologue.
In the tune above called “Monologue Song (La La La),” Swift addresses both Joe Jonas and Kanye West. She also fits in a shout out and air kiss for Taylor Lautner.
Speaking about werewolves, Taylor was later featured in a digital short dedicated to the Twilight series. You can watch “Firelight” after the jump.

Tuesday Ratings: Americans Welcome the Visitors
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, Talk Shows, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, Dancing With The Stars, So You Think You Can Dance, Ratings,
Where were you when the visitors arrived last night? Yesterday’s highly-anticipated debut of V had the best 18-49 performance for any new series this season. Its audience numbers also came in right behind the premiere of NCIS: Los Angeles for freshman programs. Unfortunately, that one show couldn’t carry the whole network.
