Bachelorette Party (Oxygen) — Series premiere. In this lavish new advertisement for The Palms in Las Vegas, the hotel’s events team put together a different bachelorette party every week for the kind of women who want their bachelorette parties recorded and televised. (P.S. This was the banner image I almost used.)
Bored to Death (HBO) — The season premiere last week slipped past my radar. I enjoy watching this for Zach Galifianakis, Ted Danson, and all the scenes shot in places that I recognize in Brooklyn, but I wouldn’t recommend necessarily recommend it to anyone else.
Two and a Half Men (CBS) — The ratings have fallen off since 28 million people watched the premiere. So the good news is that there IS a God. The bad news is He likes Charlie Sheen.
Gossip Girl (CW) — In Season 1 of “Gossip Girl,” Dan (Penn Badgley) was the not-rich outsider living in Brooklyn and trying to fit in at a school on the wealthy Upper East Side — kind of a mix between Ryan and Seth from “The O.C.” Now Dan has a book about to be published while he’s still college-age, thereby destroying whatever remaining underdog sentiment we might have had for him.
Castle (ABC) — I generally don’t catch any “Castle” episodes until after football season, but tonight’s Monday Night Football is Dolphins-Jets, so maybe I’ll tune in.
LATE NIGHT GUESTS: Matt Smith and Joel Schumacher on Ferguson; Harry Belafonte on Colbert; Hilary Duff on Chelsea; and Kaley Cuoco on Conan (Cuoco on Coco!). Letterman, Leno, Kimmel, and Fallon are in reruns this week.

1. Jets/Miami should actually be pretty good.
2. Castle squeezed in a pretty sweet Beverly Hills Cop reference last week, so I now like it even more than I already did (which was plenty).
3. I was not under the impression that reading was part of the curriculum at Gossip Girl Preparatory School.
Bored To Death is good, despite my overwhelming dislike and disdain for Jason Schwartzman.
Crap, that means I’m behind an episode on Bored to Death. Ted Danson is actually pretty good on CSI, even though that show has gone full retard.
I too am very fond of Bored to Death. Pretty sure I would recommend it to certain people. People who enjoyed The Big Lebowski would probably be a good group for that.
Hey, what’s up with acknowledging the existence of “Chelsea”?
For what its worth, you should’ve totally used the other bachelorette picture. I will now be using it for christmas cards.
Jason Schwarzman wrote the theme to Bored To Death five minutes before he was scheduled to meet and discuss the theme. Do I believe that? Oh damn right I do, just listen to it.
What’s On Tonight: Walking Dead on my DVR beeyotches! Going to watch it and then check out the WG’s only the badass parts.
