There’s not much on Saturday unless you like stock car racing or the NBA. But "Saturday Night Live" should be hipper than usual, with host Shia LaBeouf and musical guest My Morning Jacket.

Just screwing with you again. No "MILF Island" this weekend. But on Sunday CBS does have the two-hour season finale (and the usually lame hourlong "reunion show") for the latest installment of "Survivor." Our money’s on Cirie.
 

Celia Weston guests on Sunday’s "Desperate Housewives" as Susan’s mother-in-law. That oughta be good. I mean, I’ll be watching "Family Guy." But still.

Given a shortage of "Desperate Housewives" in English, American audiences might consider trying one of several alternate productions of the series from Latin America. There’s the Brazilian edition ("Donas De Casa Desesperadas") as well as one from Argentina and one produced jointly by a Colombian/Ecuadorian team, both titled "Amas De Casa Desesperadas." The Argentinian version is airing on Univision now, although there are rumors that a Spanish-language version will be produced specifically for the US market.
You can probably persuade school-aged children to watch it if you let it count as practice for their Spanish exams. Unfortunately, most of the online videos of the show are of poor quality, but I did manage to find this decent example:

Everything about the WGA strike is over here.
USAT just noticed the homosexual gentlemen on "Desperate Housewives." They’re not quite on-stereotype as the usual TV gays, and they have the same issues as everyone else on Wisteria Lane. That is, they’re crazy. I think that’s a good thing.
ONTD posted the latest "music" video from "Top Model" Cycle 4 contestant Lisa D’Amato. It’s just as bad as the last one.TV Guide has an interview with Jared Padaleki from "Supernatural."
The South Carolina Democratic Party has rejected Stephen Colbert’s petition to get onto the presidential ballot, because he’s a joke candidate, and they just won’t have it. What has this world come to when I’m getting my political news from Star Magazine?
"The Hills" is the fakest of all the so-called "Reality" shows out there. We know that. But E! says they’re having a casting call for guests at the wedding. That’s a […]
