Tonight’s TV Spotlight…Monday, November 30, 2009

November 30, 2009 by  

The Monday after a long holiday weekend is rough. Your reward is coming home to some good TV.  As we get closer to the next holiday, the TV schedule will become more and more sporadic. So keep an eye out to see which of your shows are in rerun mode and which have fresh new episodes. Be sure to keep an eye out for the “Also playing” section below. In addition to more show listings, we’ll also include specials and one of TV events, like tonight’s “How the Grinch Stole Christmas”.

For those of us living in the Boston area (and maybe New Orleans too, but I’m not sure), we won’t be seeing the Grinch or any of the ABC shows as the Pats takes on New Orleans in Monday Night Football. Go Pats! The game will also be shown on ESPN.

Here are a few highlights on the Monday night TV schedule. What are YOU watching tonight? Leave a comment here or tell me about it on Twitter (@gmmrTV)

    Mary Poppins cast on Conan! It’s like Christmas came early! One of the best shows I’ve ever seen.
