What to Watch…Tuesday, September 9, 2008
September 9, 2008 by Kath Skerry
Bad blogger. Bad blogger. It’s closing time here on the East Coast and I’m now just getting a chance to talk to you about tonight’s kickass TV lineup. So much to see and most of it great!
Tonight’s big premieres include PRIVILEGED and the much anticipated FRINGE (which we will be discussion in depth tomorrow so be sure to take note). With tonight’s second episode of the all new 90210 we’ll see if the show can keep up the buzz and the ratings of last week’s premiere. One of my favorite summer shows WIPEOUT is back with an all new episode tonight, and BIG BROTHER‘s live show will reveal the final four houseguests left in the game. Based the rumors I’ve heard I think it’s going to be quite the eviction ceremony tonight.
A thousand apologies for just getting around to posting this now. But better late than never, right?
FRINGE | 8-9:35pm on Fox | Series Premiere
In the pilot episode, an FBI agent recruits a brilliant but incarcerated scientist (John Noble) and his estranged, sharp-witted son (Joshua Jackson) to investigate an airborne tragedy that may harbinger a trend of increasingly unsettling phenomena .
90210 | 8pm on The CW | New!
Harry and Debbie plan a family night of bowling that gets interrupted when Annie and Dixon’s friends arrive unexpectedly.

PRIVILEGED | 9pm on The CW | Series Premiere
In the opener of a series about a live-in tutor to wealthy and rebellious Palm Beach, Fla., teens, Megan (JoAnna Garcia) is hired by cosmetics-company head Laurel Limoges (Anne Archer), meets her new charges (Lucy Hale, Ashley Newbrough) and begins to enjoy the perks of her new position—including a private suite and a handsome neighbor (Brian Hallisay)

The Mexican-Armenian gang war heats up, enabling Vic to position himself as a valuable commodity to both sides.

I watched Big Brother (so good!) and 90210 (still got it!) and tivo’s Privileged for another night. i’m embarassed to admit how much I’m enjoying 90210!
Fringe was amazing and Privileged was great too! Didn’t catch BB or 90210 tonight but plan on watching them as soon as I can.
I really liked Privileged but was somewhat disappointed with 90210 this week. Didn’t we have almost the exact same episode in the original version (Kelly’s mom drinks, Kelly ends up at the Walshes, Walshes talk sense into Kelly’s mom). Also, I felt that Kelly’s mom was way more mean to Erin than she ever was to Kelly. I liked the idea of her finally getting her life together and wasn’t a fan of her still being a mess after all these years.
