Torchwood: Children of Earth (BBC America) — Children get possessed by aliens and start speaking in unison in this five-night miniseries. I dunno, sounds creepy. Couldn’t they lighten it up a little bit? Maybe call it “Children of Mirth”?
The Bachelorette (ABC) — In a lame attempt to build anticipation for the finale, this is a behind-the-scenes episode where Jillian and the eliminated bachelors all talk about what they felt that one time when the guy wanted to have sex with her feet.
Dating in the Dark (ABC) — While my taste and good sense demand that I trash it, I admit: I’m morbidly curious.
4th and Long (Spike) — Season finale. Your exclusive chance to find out which guy is the guy who gets cut first at the Cowboys training camp later this summer.
The T.O. Show (VH1) — Ugh. I’m watching it, but only because of my football-blogging commitments. Watch the season highlights here. Golly, I hope it all works out for that scrappy underdog.
Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations (Travel) — Bourdain’s in Melbourne, Australia, where he once again refuses to shoot up black tar heroin on-camera. C’mon Tony, just once. For the old days.

The promise of Erin Andrews and Gina Carano sextapes give me torchedwood.
I’m going to firebomb ABC soon if they keep pumping out quality shows like Dating in the Dark and the Bachelorette.

“Next on FOX: Dating in the Dark … WITH SNAKES!!”
Well I think Dating in the Dark could be pretty good.
“Maybe call it “Children of Mirth”?”
The British Broadcast Corporation surely would know that the word “mirth” denotes amusement and laughter, therefore it would be, by royal decree, against the law to use such a misnomer for a telefilm from the horror genre. Scotland Yard strictly forbids the misuse of the Queen’s English in production, promotion and presentation of broadcast materials. Legal checks and balances are in pace to prevent such an error, going all the way up to MI:6.

Are the children from “Children of Earth” the same as the kids in “The Bloodening”?
/we know all your secrets!!!
I’d be more interested in a zany, heartwarming tale of a single British dad dealing with his large brood, titled “Children of Firth”
I’m going to be listening to the streaming audio of the lunar landing from my fort in the back yard.
Off topic: Being in jail is sure going to complicate Michael Weston’s zany adventures this Thursday.
/yea I know, he’s “famous” so he’s not going to be in jail for long.
Maybe call it “Children of Mirth”?
Given all the fat people that seem to have been dominating the airwaves, when they do an American remake it will probably be called “Children of Girth.”
@OchoCinco: true, but keep in mind that it happened in Miami. He’ll probably be stuck in jail for an extra fifteen minutes while they call the LAPD to ask about celebrity arrest protocol. Specifically, whether he should be released immediately or given a pedicure and a massage first.

“Now you’re thinking, how does he know what im thinking?”
Butters, if you’re going to do that schtick you should probably go over to href=”http://en.gravatar.com/”>Gravatar and put a visual in there, so I will find your hopeless optimism more amusing.
Thanks.
Hey Merk if you’re going to be a condescending prick you should probably bone up on those html skills
