TV Tonight: House, Warehouse 13, The Playboy Club

What’s new tonight:
House (Fox) Season 8 Premiere: After ramming his car through Cuddy’s dining room at back in May (nope, not a drive-thru), the doc is in the Greybar Hotel at the opening of Season 8—and his warden is Eddie from The Cruisers (Michael Pare)! And his new pal in the joint is Erkel (Jaleel White)! And, of course, he’s diagnosing fellow prisoners! Wonder if one is Big Otto from Sons of Anarchy …

Warehouse 13 (Syfy) Season 3 Finale: In the two-hour finale, Myka and Pete head to Wyoming and … wait, we’re gonna spend two hours in Wyoming? No thanks.

The Playboy Club (NBC) Would it be possible to take The Playboy Club’s ratings even lower than The CW’s tonight? Let’s make this happen—the sooner this is over, the sooner the local scourge known as We Are Utah is over.

Also new tonight:
Dancing With the Stars, Castle (ABC); How I Met Your Mother, 2 Broke Girls, Two & a Half Men, Mike & Molly, Hawaii Five-0 (CBS); Terra Nova (Fox); The Sing-Off (NBC); Shitastic Playboy Club Replacement (KSL 5); Hart of Dixie, Gossip Girl (The CW); Top Gear (BBC America); The Lying Game (ABC Family); Pawn Stars (History); The Bad Girls Club, Hair Battle Spectacular (Oxygen); The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Most Eligible Dallas (Bravo); Ridiculousness, Death Valley, Cuff’d (MTV)

A House promo that totally blows the “Jail House Rock” opportunity:

KSL’s We Are Utah: It Ain’t The Playboy Club

What’s KSL 5 running this Monday at 9 instead of NBC’s moral-fabric-of-society-destroying The Playboy Club? Something just as edgy! Or at least, something.

This press release doesn’t quite clear it up:

“We Are Utah features the people, places and cultural quirks that make Utah a great place to live.

“We will explore everything Utah, from our bad driving records, to our beautiful people and our amazing talents. And we’ll have fun with the cultural quirks that we all recognize and love as we hit the streets, ‘Jaywalking’ style, to figure out why we can’t pronounce ‘Layton.’ We will venture into the streets of Utah, from businesses to schools, trying to make sense of it all.

“We invite you to tune in, be part of our journey and be proud to be a Utahn. We think?!%$%. This is an exciting departure of style for KSL, so expect the unexpected!”

Other than an inordinate amount of time in “the streets,” still not sure what the hell We Are Utah is supposed to be. Maybe these promos will help:





Nope.
