This week’s TV picks
Monday:
‘Castle’ 9 p.m., ABC: Lyle Lovett and his large hair guest star as a questionable government agent.
Tuesday:
‘Glee’ 7 p.m., Fox: I don’t much care for this show any more, but I still like Gwyneth Paltrow, guest starring as New Directions’ substitute teacher, so maybe I’ll give it a shot.
‘Creating the World of Harry Potter: Creatures’ 8 p.m., Biography: Will Dobby the House Elf show up? The Dobbarazzi is standing by.
‘The Good Wife’ 9 p.m., CBS: ‘iCarly’ teen pop star Miranda Cosgrove guests as … wait for it … a teen pop star.
‘Glory Daze’ 9 p.m., TBS: I’m sort of predisposed to pessimism by any show that has a title that substitutes the word ‘daze’ for ‘days’ and I find the 1986 setting suspect (who is specifically nostalgic for 1986?). But maybe it’ll be like an updated ‘Undeclared.’ Series premiere.
Wednesday:
‘Human Target’ 7 p.m., Fox: Season 2 kicks off with a plan to rescue Winston.
‘Better with You’ 7:30 p.m., ABC: Reba McEntire guests as a wedding planner with a possible ulterior motive.
‘Circus’ 8 p.m., PBS: The final two episodes of the series find the 350-performance tour coming to an end.
‘25 Years of Sexy: People’s Sexiest Man Alive!’ 9 p.m., ABC: It’s got to be good — there’s an exclamation mark in the title!
Thursday:
‘Charlie Brown Thanksgiving’ 7 p.m., ABC: I like a holiday feast as much as the next guy, but I’m not really sure I’d want it cooked up by a precocious beagle.
‘Bones’ 7 p.m., Fox: Newman! ‘Seinfeld’s’ Wayne Knight guests as a candy tycoon turned suspect when body parts turn up in a gigantic candy bar. ‘Hey … you got your chocolate in my femur.’ ‘You got your femur in my chocolate!’
‘Fringe’ 8 p.m. Fox: Cabbie Henry (Andre Royo) returns as Olivia continues to question her place in the alternate universe.
‘Now on PBS: Fixing the Future’ 8 p.m., PBS: Host David Brancaccio travels the country via sustainable transportation while highlighting innovative communities.
Friday:
‘How the Grinch Stole Christmas’ 7 p.m., TBS: I defy you to watch this and not have your heart grow three sizes. Go on, try it.
‘Harmony’ 9 p.m., NBC: This project from Prince Charles (no, really) explores how humans can meet the challenges of climate change on a global, local and personal level.
Saturday:
‘The Night Before the Night Before Christmas’ 7 p.m., Hallmark: If you’re a U-verse customer, you’ll have to ask Santa to settle the ongoing carriage dispute if you want to watch this TV movie starring Jennifer Beals and Rick Roberts.
Sunday:
‘2010 American Music Awards’ 7 p.m., ABC: New Kids on the Block and the Backstreet Boys perform together in the 38th annual fan-voted gala.
‘Family Guy’ 8 p.m., Fox: Brian’s self-help best-seller lands him on ‘Real Time with Bill Maher.’
‘How the Grinch Stole Christmas’ 9 p.m., TBS: Here it is again, in case you missed it on Friday. I wouldn’t watch it twice, though … it can’t be healthy for your heart to grow six sizes.
