• Gossip Girl (CW, 8pm):  Season 2 premiere. “Summer in the Hamptons winds down as Serena and Nate carry on a cover-up scheme to make others think they’re dating.” A few choice pics sent to Gossip Girl should do the trick.
• Prison Break (FOX, 8pm):  Season 4 premiere. “Michael is in LA looking to even the score with Gretchen for Sara’s death.” I think Gretchen should really apologize for all of last season.
• One Tree Hill (CW, 9pm):  Season 6 premiere. “Lucas’ chosen lady meets him at the airport, while Dan’s accident proves life-threatening.” Sorry. So not caring who Chad Michael Murray picks these days.
• Raising the Bar (TNT, 10pm):  Series premiere. “Idealistic public defender Jerry Kellerman (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) fights for a man he’s sure is innocent, but holding a court is a judge who loathes Kellerman.” Gosselaar’s new hair has been generating some passionate opinions.

Damon Wayans Returns to TV

Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, ABC

Remember when the Wayans brothers were a force to be reckoned with? I’m not sure what Marlon, Shawn or Keenen Ivory are up to these days, but Damon is giving TV another go. And he hasn’t been away for long, seeing as his popular show My Wife and Kids, which premiered in 2001, just ended in 2005. He’s coming back to ABC and has another pilot in the works. Of course, you can expect laughs from Wayans (that’s what he does best), but there will be a little sorrow too—he plays a widower who has to look after his estranged teenage stepson. Again, he’ll be playing the dad and this show will feature multiple cameras versus the single camera comedies of late. Wayans doesn’t seem to be fading from the spotlight anytime soon—after My Wife and Kids, he also exec produced a Showtime series called The Underground. Is anyone else hoping for the In Living Color reunion? How great would it be to get the Wayans family, David Alan Grier, Jamie Foxx, Tommy Davidson and Jim Carrey together again?
