The Office / Parks and Recreation / Community / 30 Rock (NBC) — NBC’s stalwart comedies finally return with new episodes, with Will Ferrell’s four-episode stint on “The Office” beginning tonight.
The Paul Reiser Show (NBC) — Series premiere. Obviously, Paul Reiser stars in this rip-off of “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” which has been getting panned by critics who like “Curb” as well as those who don’t. It’s got nothing for everybody!
American Idol (Fox) — Kelly Clarkson and Rihanna are scheduled to appear and sing a duet. Oh man, I hope Kelly Clarkson’s dropped some pounds since the last time I saw her. Otherwise just keep the cameras on Rihanna, thanks. I’m kinda in love with her (although I suspect she may not be a natural redhead).
Vampire Diaries (The CW) — Hey, female audience! I’m catering to you here. I hear that Klaus is going to appear at the dance tonight. Is Elena gonna freak or what?!? Totes excited.
Archer (FX) — Archer goes in search of his real father behind enemy lines in Russia. ”Not many women could bring me to orgasm in front of my mother. I don’t think.”
LATE NIGHT GUESTS: Pay attention! There’s some goodness in here: Matthew Morrison, Alexis Bledel, and Queens of the Stone Age on Conan; Ricky Gervais on “The Daily Show”; Caroline Kennedy on Colbert; Tyler Perry and Kendra Wilkinson on Leno; Seth Meyers, Carmelo Anthony, and TV on the Radio on Letterman; and Alison Brie on Kimmel (second guest). Hell yes Alison Brie. Also, Tyler Perry is the Leno-est black celebrity on the planet. Full listings at TV Squad.

Carlos Mencia is the Leno-est Mexican/Honduran.
And the Asian Leno – I dunno, Steve Byrne?
I want to have Alexis Bledel with Ellen Page in an underdeveloped-but-still-hot sandwich.
Disdain for Paul Reiser seems to be one of the only things that even the Internet can reach unanimity upon.
My work computer’s home page is set to Yahoo, and there was some article on there about how Paul Reiser’s new show is “controversial.” So I’m thinking he said something offensive, but no. Apparently, it’s controversial because Perfect Couples fans complained about it.
Really? All five of them? Ooh, this is surely the scandal of our times.
Just be mad because it will suck, not because it replaced another sucky show.
So last night no mention of Justified, and tonight no mention of ALL NEW COMMUNITY???
Jesus, who are you and what have you done with Matt?
@Community- Did the very first listing w/ all the NBC comedies (including community) not get that point across?
SPOILER ALERT
Andy getting married in the Reggie Wayne jersey was a nice touch.
Alison Brie’s cleavage on Kimmel, YOWZA!
So NBC DID accidentally spoil this wedding earlier in the season on their website. Whatever- still a Parks & Rec classic. Need Rob Lowe dancing GIF NOW.
Hey, did you guys catch all the subtle highbrow gags on Archer? Like the name “Jakov”??
It’s obviously a play (ha!) on “Chekhov”. You know … because of Chekhov’s use of the stream-of-consciousness technique, later adopted by James Joyce and other modernists, combined with a disavowal of the moral finality of traditional story structure?
Oh, how we laughed, my douchebag friends and I…
My man crush on Rob Lowe has only been magnified due to the dancing last night. Must. Have. Gif.
also, when is Community going back to funny episodes?
Haha, PamsRack totally stuck it to Community.
Hey, did you guys catch all the subtle highbrow gags on Archer? Like the name “Jakov”??
Actually, it’s a nod to the spy thrillers that the show spoofs. Just about every Ian Fleming book had a character whose name was a painfully obvious innuendo. There’s really no need for you to be a shithead about it.
Relax Matt, that guy was clearly making stuff up. No way he has any friends, douchebag or otherwise.
Why do so many dickbags enjoy shitting all over tv shows that are well known favorites of us GlowMos? Do they go to birthday parties and piss on the cake, too?
People can talk all the shit about whatever shows they want. I just ask that they use an ounce of wit to do it.
*measures wit*
Ha! One-and-three-quart ounces, sir! My shit-talking stands.
Will Ferrell could read me the phone book and I think I’d still giggle like a school girl. The only acceptable replacements are Ferrell and Gervais, after this 4 episode run I think anyone else is going to be a massive disappointment.
@crispyaod; you just put that movie in my head…. and I thank you.
*they are grad student roomates in the movie BTW.
