05.00 It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia
05.25 NCIS
06.10 Royal Pains
06.55 White Collar
It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia. Season 4, Episode 9. "Dennis Reynolds: An Erotic Life" Dennis is locked up.
Rob Thomas plays himself in a very strange, but wonderful, episode of Always Sunny. As usual, there central idea is odd but the gang and very excited by it, and 100% committed to making it happen. So they frame Dennis for substance abuse and get him locked away (feeling, of course, that it will authenticity and sales and stuff. Of course.)
NCIS. Season 6, Episode 3. "Capitol Offense" Gibb's friend is a suspect.
Tim DeKay is a great guest star, and it's a great change of pace episode (where Gibbs is trying to help out a friend and avoid a scandal) but the story is ruined by very simplistic elements. Whenever a show ends with a "How did you know she was shot in the back? That fact was never released." type of ending I always roll my eyes with disappointment. More so, when it's NCIS because I expect better.
Royal Pains. Episode 6. "If I Were a Sick Man" Quarantine.
Another cool episode. There's a party for a dog, and everyone gets sick so Hank enforces a quarantine. Which leads to lots of drama. This is a great, fun, show.
And the ending, where Hank gave his brother the sports car, was both funny and sweet in equal measure. I love the playful relationship between the brothers.
White Collar. Episode 2. "Threads" Fashion Week.
Good fun. Not quite as crisp as the opener, but still a fine way to spend an hour in front of the TV.
Natalie Morales joins the cast.
Highlight? Royal Pains (another cool episode)
