Even though Housewives hit a new series low, the finale of Oprah’s Big Give helped keep ABC in first place for Sunday.
8pm
- Oprah’s Big Give (10 million, 3.2/9 in 18-49) ended on a nice note.
- Big Brother (6.8 million, 2.3/6) was deflated by nearly 4 million.
- Monk (5.7 million, 1.3/4) attracted another 500,000.
- The Simpsons* (5.3 million, 2.5/7) and King of the Hill* (4.5 million, 2.1/5) both dropped off by nearly 1.5 million.
- Everybody Hates Chris (1.3 million, 0.4/1) did the same as last week; Aliens in America* (1.2 million, 0.4/1) was up a tad.

(You can view TV Envy’s Post-Strike Television Schedule here.)
MONDAY (4/21)
- Gossip Girl (CW, 8pm): New episode. “A dethroned Blair musters up the strength to head back to school, and Jenny tries to keep up with the financial demands of the in-crowd.” Mondays are always better when other people are miserable.
- Deal or No Deal (NBC, 8pm): George Bush provides support to a war vet going for the million. After three tours in Iraq, the President figured it was the least he could do.
- How I Met Your Mother (CBS, 8:30): If you can’t handle the thought of humming a tune about sandcastles over and over again, this might not be the episode for you.
- The Bachelor: London (ABC, 10pm): “Matt accompanies Amanda, Chelsea, Noelle and Shayne to their hometowns.” Being allowed to live in the U.S. takes more than just a sham marriage. It means faking it with her family too.

This Week on TV (1/21-1/27)

(You can view the whole Revamped TV Programming Schedule here.)
MONDAY (1/21)- Prison Break (FOX, 8pm): “T-Bag enlists Bellick to display his gladiatorial skills once again as the battle between Lechero and Sammy for control of Sona comes to a head.” If they can’t beat American Gladiators, FOX will encourage its characters fight like ‘em.
- Dance War: Bruno vs. Carrie Ann (ABC, 8pm): “Viewers cast their first vote for their favorite teams after they perform live song-and-dance routines.” They’ve finally reached the phase I actually care about.
- Wildfire (ABC Family, 9pm): Season 4 premiere. I have absolutely no idea what this show is about, but it sounds like a trashy romance novel. Oh wait - this is a family channel. Never mind.
- Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (FOX, 9pm): “John and Cameron try to fit in a new school.” Is an education really the most important thing for John at this point? Shouldn’t he be honing his street smarts or something?
