- Also at the half hour is ESPN’s Monday Night Football with the Vikings taking on the Saints.
- Something miraculous needs to happen for FOX’s Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles to avoid cancellation at this point. Maybe Ellison’s first assignment for Shirley Manson’s Weaver will do it.

9:00p/8:00 Central
- I still can’t get into CBS’s Two and a Half Men, but for those of you who do tonight features Alan trying to juggle two women, Charlie cooking and Jake trying beer. That’s followed by more horrible mishaps on Worst Week as Sam tries to fix the damage he’s done to Dick’s portrait.
- Peter takes on a new ability to prevent yet another horrible future on NBC’s Heroes. On the other super hero show of the hour, Prison Break, Sarah learns what’s wrong with Michael and the whole gang goes to Vegas to track the next card.

- VH1 follows up their exploration of the top 100 hip hop songs with the 2008 Hip Hop Honors special hosted by Tracy Morgan. This year’s honorees include Cypress Hill, De La Soul, Naughty by Nature, Slick Rick and Too $hort.
- In scripted fare, NBC keeps putting Life all over the schedule, tonight featuring a case involving a research scientist frozen completely solid. TNT’s Raising the Bar continues being terrible with two cases: Jerry handles a guy who followed a hit-and-run driver and robbed him, while Bobbi deals with a domestic violence victim who won’t press charges.
- Alternately, the CSI: Miami team, on CBS, tracks down the killer of Delko’s therapist’s daughter.
- And wrapping up a run-down of the night packed with the most shows worth watching (why do you do this, TV?) we come to Boston Legal. Tonight, Denny gets arrested … again. This time for shooting a man in self defense with a concealed weapon.
