Police Women of Maricopa County (TLC) — Wait a second. So they’re just lady cops? They’re not little people? Or making cakes? And they don’t have huge litters of children? I don’t get it, TLC. What’s the angle?
American Idol (Fox) — The bottom two guys and girls get winnowed out, leaving a mere 20 contestants. *spins chamber, holds gun to head, pulls trigger* Nope. I guess I’m sticking around long enough to write about it for another week.
The Deep End (ABC) — Season finale. Oh wow, I can’t believe I missed every single episode of “Attractive Young Lawyers, LLC.” I hope it gets renewed so I can not watch it again next year!
Planet Earth (Animal Planet) — Yes, it’s obviously a repeat. But I wanted to give you enough of a heads-up so you can score a dime bag before watching four hours of this in HD.
Behind Bars (Discovery) — This downer of a series is about prison, not actual bars. I actually just shelled out for my own bar. Black vinyl, restored from the 1960s. It really lends a noble air to drinking alone.
Archer (FX) — No new episode tonight, but there will be four episodes playing from 10 to midnight (Eastern): “Diversity Hire,” “Honeypot,” “Mole Hunt,” and “Training Day.” It’s good watchin’ if you want to keep up with what the cool kids are saying. “Uh hello, planes? It’s blimps. You win.”
NETWORK NEWS: For those of you who aren’t prone to clicking on our feature buttons, the new Uproxx homepage is a great way to waste more time at work. Today’s article is How to Keep Your Grandparents Safe Online, which I liked because it makes fun of old people. And yesterday I wrote about how to get lectured by unfunny Internet commenters. For the foreseeable future, I’ll be writing 1-2 features every week. Bookmark it.



here’s my pitch…
Six midgets (one from every continent) sail a pirate ship looking for booty and treasure (see what I did there). Every week, one midget is forced to walk the plank until there remains one pirate midget left. Hilarity ensues when various government organizations try to arrest them, then let’s them go thinking that they are children.
I call it Short Men Tell No Tales
Far be it from me to question your Photoshopping decisions, Matt, but color me shocked you didn’t feature these classy young lasses for the picture:

Arizona universities must import their hot chicks/cheerleaders from other states because i was there last October and didn’t see anything remotely “bangable”
@donturtuccio
maybe “Short Men Nail no Tail”
I’m still pissed I went to that Planet Earth movie expecting to see new footage and all I got was a Sigourney Weaver voiceover on the same shit I watched a year before.
Unless Behind Bars features Adebisi, I ain’t watching.
If we’re talking quirky cartoons that barely anyone but us nerds watch to quote, I prefer the Venture Bros.
“Hank, just because he’s black doesn’t mean he has the Shining”
If Will Smith narrated, it’d be called Planet Earf.
If John Cleese narrated it’d be called Planet Mirth
If Kevin Smith narrated it’d be called Planet Girth
If Jason Lee narrated it’d be called Planet Earl.
Archer is new tonight dingus
@CT, Matt is correct. No new Archer tonight. They are new episodes if you haven’t seen them yet.
No Archer is not new dingus. I’d suggest Kitchen Nightmares and Burn Notice as entertainment for you shut-ins. Also Kitchen Burn, a reality show where clumsy chefs compete to bang Paris Hilton as well as Nightmares Notice, the 9th ghost show to premiere on A&E this month
Time Warner DVR says that the Diversity Hire episode is new tonight, but it’s obviously not.
@bluemidget, what part of AZ were you in? if you stepped foot on campus, you would see some of the hottest women in the country
Seriously, Erik, I think you might be blind. Or gay.
@erik
Exactly my point, on campus you’d have to pull a Linda Blair to see all the hot ass. Outside on the streets there’s nothing even remotely close to “sight seeing”
Hence, those hotties be imported
