MONDAY (6/29)

- Cake Boss (TLC, 10pm): “Buddy creates an ornate wedding cake filled wtih live birds.” Watch out - that might not be fondant you’re eating.
- Dance Your Ass Off (Oxygen, 10pm): “Twelve plus-size contestants infiltrate Los Angeles in a competition to shed pounds by means of dance and diet in this 10-part unscripted series hosted by Marissa Jaret Winokur.” In other words, a cutthroat version of Sweatin’ to the Oldies.

MONDAY (6/15)
- Greek (ABC Family, 8pm): Season finale. “Casey struggles with conflicting feelings she has for Max and Cappie.” Given how nauseating “Casey and Cappie” sounds, I’d think the obvious choice would be Max.
- The Closer (TNT, 9pm): “Brenda snoops into the abduction of a greedy financier being investigated for investment fraud, but she soon suspects that he may have staged the kidnapping.” Later, it’s discovered the investor was less than six degrees way from Kevin Bacon.
- Raising the Bar (TNT, 10pm): “Michelle then falls for a sightly cop who may be committing perjury.” So much for making him swear on the Bible before the first date.
- Here Comes the Newlyweds (ABC, 10pm): “The husbands try to guess what their wives think are their shortcomings when it comes to intimacy.” It’s not that they don’t already know—it’s just that they forgot.

FOX to Pay Tribute to David Carradine
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, FOX,
David Carradine’s cause of death might still be unknown (Was it suicide? Foul play? An accident?), but FOX’s plans are still going on as planned.
Just days after he was found dead in a Thailand hotel room, the actor is set to appear on the small screen. A guest role on the freshman series Mental had already been scheduled prior to Carradine’s passing. In that episode, David goes into a coma after he and his wife are struck by lightning.
According to Entertainment Weekly, FOX will be sure to honor the Kung Fu star. Tuesday’s episode will end with an “In Memoriam” tribute for Carradine.
