  • 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 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.

Celebrity Family Feud

(You can view TV Envy’s Summer Television Programming Schedule here.)

 

MONDAY (6/23)
  • I Love the New Millennium (VH1, 10pm):  “Eight-part series featuring stars reminiscing about pop culture phenomena of the new millennium begins with the year 2000.” Is it too soon to wonder what VH1 will cover in 2011?
  • Legally Blonde the Musical: The Search for Elle Woods (MTV,10pm):  “The ladies perform with a canine costar: Bruiser, the dog from the musical.” I had no idea revived Punk’d.
  • Psychic Kids: Children of the Paranormal (A&E, 10pm):  “A 14-year-old boy, who claims to see spirits of people and animals, is introduced to siblings close to his age who supposedly have paranormal gifts.” I’m always happy when freaky kids find someone to play with.
  • Weeds (Showtime, 10pm):  “Celia’s hard time in county lock-up gets harder when her cellmate decides to make Celia her ‘special girl’.” Yeah - that would definitely suck.

Nashville Star

MONDAY (6/9)
  • The Bachelorette (ABC, 8pm):  “DeAnna accuses the 9 remaining bachelors of refusing to take the competition seriously, but first she invites them to compete in a singing contest.” I don’t understand why those guys don’t see the importance of a proper serenade.
  • Quads with 2 Moms (Discovery Health, 8pm):  “A same-sex couple who want to become parents undergo fertility treatments and both become pregnant with twins.” I just can’t believe Oprah didn’t get a hold of this story first!
  • Greek (ABC Family, 8pm):  Season finale. “The Cyprus-Rhodes students head to the beach for Spring Break where Casey finally decides to leave the past behind and cut loose.” And by “decides”, we mean she finally “downs” a couple of shots and forgets the past.
  • Nashville Star (NBC, 9pm):  Season/network premiere. “Billy Ray Cyrus takes over the hosting from Jewel, who moves to the judges’ table alongside country stars John Rich and Jeffrey Steele.” I never thought the day would come when I would compare Jewel to .

(You can view TV Envy’s Summer Television Programming Schedule here.)

 

MONDAY (6/2)
  • Instant Star (The N, 8pm EST): Season premiere. “Jude distracts herself with work on her third album in an attempt to avoid choosing between Jamie and Tommy.” Someone who chooses to work because of men? That’s unheard of!
  • The Bachelorette (ABC, 8pm):  “Eleven of the bachelors find themselves backstage at Ellen Degeneres’ talk show, where they show off their ‘Ellen’ boxer shorts.” Okay, I’m confused. Who exactly are they trying to impress?
  • Legally Blonde the Musical: The Search for Elle Woods (MTV, 10pm): Series premiere. I do hope these girls realize there’s no at the end of this tunnel.
  • The Mole (ABC, 10pm): Series return. “The fifth season kicks off with one of the contestants ends up stranded alone on a deserted beach.” WARNING: Fake idol useless on this show.

Modeling Competition for Ages 35+

Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Cable,

TV Land logoNow here’s a reality competition I can appreciate. You see, I’m a 30-something and… well, I feel old. It doesn’t help to see all of these young whippersnappers on television either. For example, I feel completely disconnected from the issues that plague the recent housemates on —I’m just not tuned in to what they’re going through. In fact, I’m on a different frequency altogether. So, is tapping into a new reality niche with their reality series, . Twenty female contestants over 35 years old will compete for a modeling contract with Wilhelmina Models. Plus they’ll land a photo spread in Self magazine, which is one of those “real” women kind of mags (OK, I’m a subscriber, I admit it). Supermodel Kim Alexis, who is in her 40s, hosts the series, with judging duties upheld by supermodel Beverly Johnson, Wilhelmina president Sean Patterson and Robert Verdi, celebrity stylist. TV Land president Larry Jones said of the series, “Real women in their 40s and 50s are too often overlooked in the scope of the TV landscape. TV Land’s goal is to tell the rich stories of these striking women in a fun and entertaining way.” The show is expected to air on TV Land in summer 2008.

Mr. T Gives Out Advice in New Show

Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Reality, Cable, Cable/Satellite,

Mr. T It’s funny to think that the persona that is Mr. T will still be identifiable in 2006—for those of us who grew up on the A-Team and Mr. T’s cartoon (remember that?), we get it. But, what about people who have no idea what “I pity the fool” even means? Mr. T’s new show, called I Pity the Fool (genius, right?), has the T-man taking it to the real world to give out his solid advice and motivate people with his flavor of self-help. Just “teaching fools some basic rules,” as he says. The show will be airing on TV Land beginning on Wednesday at 10:00 p.m., but you can catch the first episode on Yahoo. The episode, “Motivation”, has Mr. T helping out a car salesman who works for his father-in-law. I admit, it does have a fair amount of entertainment value, but I wonder how much help and motivation he can instill. At least he’s going without his many chains, but the yell factor is still there… at any rate, bring on the T!
