Tonight's Best
A DAILY GUIDE TO NOTABLE SHOWS by Jessica Shaw
Series DebutTake Home Nanny
A no-nonsense nanny transforms unruly ankle biters into angelic darlings. If the formula for this new TLC series starring Emma Jenner sounds familiar, that's because it is. But it's nice to know there's a backup for when Nanny 911 doesn't answer.
Series DebutCatch 21
Alfonso Ribeiro isn't just that guy from Fresh Prince who's not Will Smith; he's also a game-show host.
American Gladiators
Don't mess with a mother of three. Those ladies can seriously multitask.
Series DebutWanna Bet?
Wanna bet I have something clever to say about this stunt show? You lost.
The Closer
How long is Brenda gonna be weaning off the sweets? I'm finding her a tad crabby.
Heidi Fleiss: The Would-Be Madam of Crystal
After her jail term, the notorious madam was a changed woman: No more prostitution rings for her. This doc shows she's all about opening a brothel catering only to women. Nice to know she did such soul-searching in the clink.
Verminators
A woman doesn't think her mouse problem is that bad. When you have to qualify your mouse problem, it’s fair to say you have a mouse problem.
The Middleman
An ex-dictator and his team pose as a boy band. I often thought 98 Degrees had a disturbing resemblance to Stalin's posse.
3-Part SeriesChasing Churchill: In Search of My Grandfather
Churchill's granddaughter Celia Sandys travels around to her grandfather's favorite places. If that's not exploiting your lineage for frequent-flier miles, I don’t know what is. *check local listings
Series DebutDate My Ex: Jo & Slade
The Real Housewives of Orange County alum Jo De La Rosa is looking for love with the help of her super-cheesy ex-fiancé, Slade Smiley. Round 1 finds four meatheads (five, if Slade counts...and he should) fighting for Jo's attention. This romantic battle would be just another unremarkable dating show if not for Slade's unnervingly entertaining presence; he comes off as a filthy combo of daddy and ex-lover. C+ Tanner Stransky
Reel Comedy: Step Brothers
A preview of Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly's new movie. What's funnier than two guys with frizz issues?
