Welcome to a new week for This Week on TV! Ahh, I can almost smell the fall shows now. Is anyone else getting excited about the new season? The tv networks are beginning to air more and more of the promos for the new shows and I have to say, I’m REALLY looking forward to Chuck. He’s so freakin adorable and the premise is great. I can’t wait! But there are some good things on this week as well, so let’s see what’s playing this week!
SUNDAY
Sunday is the premiere of the new miniseries on Spike TV called The Kill Point. It is 2-hours tonight, starting at 9/8c. This 4-part miniseries stars Donnie Wahlberg and John Leguizamo as two men who square off during a bank heist gone horribly wrong and hostage negotiations ensue. Leguizamo plays the leader of a small group of military veterans who set out to rob a major bank in Pittsburgh and Wahlberg plays the Pittsburgh Police Department Hostage Negotiator. This looks fantastic! Nice way to spend 2 hours a week for a month!
Tonight is also the series premiere of a new reality show called Trick It Out on MTV at 10/9c. $15,000, 14 days, a beat-up old import and two teams of tuners who think they’ve got what it takes. It pits two top teams of Tuners against each other every week in a high-stakes competition to see who has the best skills in the land. Each crew of four Tuners gets a similar car to start with, 14 days, and $15,000 to do their very best cosmetic work. In the end, the teams are judged by a panel of experts – including R.J. Devera, the top Tuner in the nation – the winning crews gets to go home with its car, while the loser gets nothing but the satisfaction of giving it their very best effort. If you are a car fanatic, this show’s for you!
