Tonight’s TV Addictions: April 6, 2009

WHAT WE’RE WATCHING:
CHUCK (8PM NBC, CityTV in Canada)
With THE BIG BIG BANG THEORY, HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER and GOSSIP GIRL all airing old episodes tonight, it’s CHUCK versus the REPEATS. Which means you really have no excuse not to tune into tonight’s brand new episode that has Chuck coming face-to-face with his TV dad played by Scott Bakula.

GREEK (8PM ABC Family)
When Casey and Ashleigh begin to doubt Rebecca’s work as a mole and suspect that she may be a double agent for Frannie, we begin to wonder if the GREEK writers may have spent a little too much time watching 24 on their hiatus.

SURVIVING SUBURBIA (9:30PM ABC, CityTV in Canada)
If Bob Saget wanted to distance himself from his roots on FULL HOUSE, he sure succeeded: he’s gone from in-over-his-head doting father to a cad of a ne’er do well husband. That wouldn’t be so bad if SURVIVING SUBURBIA wasn’t like every mid-’90s sitcom that already ended (or was canceled). Perhaps Saget should stick to stand-up and his narrator gig on HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER, both of which are far funnier than this. — Aleks Chan

CASTLE (10PM ABC)
A woman found frozen at a construction side leads Beckett and Castle to reopen a cold case. COLD CASE, really? You’d think a best-selling author like Richard Castle would know a thing or two about plagiarism, we’re just sayin’


NEW & NOTABLE:
HOUSE (8PM FOX, Global in Canada)
Dave Matthews, Mos Def, and now Meat Loaf? When did being a famous musician become a prerequisite for a guest spot on the hit FOX drama? Seriously, we’re talking HOUSE here, not SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE

24 (8PM FOX, Global in Canada)
Further evidence that change is in the air has Jack and the FBI work on a strategy to ward off further terror attacks. Instead of you know… shooting first and asking questions later.

UNWRAPPED (9PM Food)
The Food Network gets the munchies with tonight’s installment spotlighting snack-size treats from White Castle and Ben & Jerry’s.

TABLE FOR 12 (9PM TLC)
In what we can only hope is one epically frozen piece of ice, Eric and Betty take all 12 kids ice-skating for the first time.

THE HILLS (10PM MTV)
In what Lauren Conrad promises to be the final season of THE HILLS (not to be confused with the last two seasons which Lauren, like totally swore were the final seasons), Lauren is thrown a surprise birthday and is none-too-pleased when Stephanie brings Heidi along.
