Smithcho_knightrider_240 Just in case you're unaware, this is New Year's Eve. It's a day when people go out, pay way too much for food, and watch a ball in a controlled drop in New York City. It is, this year, also apparently the night that NBC figured it ought to return Knight Rider to the schedule, a decision that makes about as much sense to me as the plot of a Knight Rider episode.

Bartsimpson_240Today is New Year's Eve -- or, as some call it, Amateur Drunk Night. As we close the books on 2008, it's likely that a fair number of us will be knocking back a glass of champagne or five, or perhaps a couple of nice cocktails.

Zachbraff This time next week we'll all be waxing philosophical around our respective water coolers about the eighth season premiere of Scrubs, why it's still one of the funniest shows on television, whether or not Zach Braff is still sexy, etc. etc.

...But a week can be a long time to wait. January 6th is a lifetime away. And so, the good people at Scrubs have cooked up a little New Year's gift for those of us craving some Sacred Heart asap. More

Jonnyleemiller2_elistone_240 The last time we saw Eli Stone, our lawyer/prophet was working his way through a breakup with an heiress and had a difficult vision about his brother's wedding. Now, as a newlywed myself, I can appreciate that there are often difficulties on the road to matrimony. But they're usually of the "our caterer didn't show up" variety, rather than a Dark Truth vision of the wedding being called off. But to each their own.

Elizabethmitchell_lost Normally, I hear "Juliet flashback" and start breakdancing with Lost joy. So when I learned originally that I'd get a Juliet-centric AND a new Dharma station, let's just say I popped AND locked in the week leading up to it. And yet, what we got was merely a solid, not mind-blowing, episode.

Simonbaker_mentalist_240I'm usually not one to make New Year's resolutions for myself. When I have, I've never held to them, so I stopped. That doesn't mean, however, that I'm above suggesting some self-improvement goals for others -- specifically, the people who make the TV shows we watch.

Tvpartyw104It's a medical miracle! Just when we thought our favorite doctors, nurses and Janitor were about to flatline, a network switch keeps J.D., Turk, Elliot and the rest of the Scrubs gang alive and kicking Tuesdays on ABC! More
