WHAT WE’RE WATCHING:

90210 (8PM FOX, CTV in Canada)
Much to the surprise of Sharpay and Ryan Annie and Ethan, Troy Ty auditions for the new school play. And much to our surprise, this is what it’s come to… plot lines “inspired” by HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL. Awkward.
FRINGE (9PM FOX, CTV in Canada)
Murder, a formal review of the Fringe Division and a visit from her sister keep Olivia busy this week. More importantly, the show will no-doubt get a major ratings boost thanks to this post-IDOL slot.
PRIVILEGED (9PM CW, CityTV in Canada)
When did Pete Wentz become the CW’s bitch? First, there was that whole “Pete and Peyton” thing on ONE TREE HILL, now a photo of Pete with Rose stirs up all kinds of trouble between the beauty and her boyfriend. I guess a (Fallout) boy’s gotta do what a (Fallout) boy’s gotta do to sell records these days.
