Weeds: A Jagged Little Pill will be incorporated into the next season of Weeds. Alanis Morissette, who most recently guested on Nip/Tuck, will be donning more scrubs for the Showtime series. The singer will play Mary Louise Parker’s obstetrician for at least seven episodes and may even return next year. Meanwhile, Jennifer Jason Leigh (Margot at the Wedding) will be around for several episodes as Nancy’s older sister. Season 5 debuts on June 8.

MONDAY (11/24)

• Samantha Who? (ABC, 9:30):  “Sam invites boyfriend Owen (James Tupper) for dinner to meet her parents, but Owen and Howard don’t hit it off.” Seems Howard doesn’t approve of his relationship with Anne Heche either.
• Valkyrie: The Plot to Kill Hitler (History, 10pm):  “Recalling Operation Valkyrie, a failed plot devised by German officers to assassinate Adolf Hitler.” By choosing this documentary over the Tom Cruise version, you’ll be able to save a few more bucks for Christmas.
