This is a very quiet week on TV, with the only really notable show returning being Lifetime's "Project Runway" on Thursday as it enters its 13th season.
Otherwise, Fox's "Hell's Kitchen" wraps up the same night and Gordon Ramsay's "Hotel Hell" returns on Monday. (Gotta have Ramsay on at all times on Fox!)
WGN enters the scripted series game with its critically acclaimed "Manh(a)ttan)" on Sunday about creating the atom bomb during the 1940s.
