What to Watch…Monday, October 13, 2008

Happy Columbus Day, folks!  Are you working today?  I’m not!  Woo hoo!  Me and my Mac are off to do some errands today.  Important things are on the agenda today including getting mar car washed, going to the gym, and hitting up Starbucks to do a little blogging.  Not a bad day.

And most importantly I’m going to be gearing up for the great night of TV ahead.  You know I love me some Monday night television. So many great shows to choose from tonight.  I’ve got to give a little extra love for CHUCK tonight as the ratings could be a little better.  NBC being smarty pants have already picked up the show for a full season, but not even a full season order can trump ratings.

Here’s just a few shows that you can choose from tonight.
