8:00
My Generation (ABC)

8:30
$#*! My Dad Says (CBS)

9:00
Nikita (CW)
Outsourced (NBC)


My Generation (good reviews and the lead in to Grey's should keep this around for a while)
Comedy/Drama following young adults whose lives were being filmed for a documentary just before their graduation from Greenbelt High School in Austin, Texas in 2000. Their hopes and dreams for the future were recorded, and as they meet up ten years later, they realize that things don't always go as planned.


$#*! My Dad Says (I give it a month, tops...)
Ed is a very opinionated 72-year-old who has been divorced three times. His two adult sons are accustomed to his unsolicited and often politically incorrect rants. When son Henry is forced to move back in with Ed, new issues arise in their tricky father-son relationship. Stars William Shatner.


Nikita (Action, Suspense, and a strong female lead = decent reviews)
The story centers on a fictional secret branch of the CIA, known as Division, which trains young assassins. It usually selects young people with a troubled background, often in prison and on death row. After identifying promising candidates, Division fakes their death and offers them a new life.


Outsourced (awful reviews - skip it!)
Set in an Indian call center, where an American novelties company has recently outsourced its order processing. A lone American manages the call center and must explain American popular culture to his employees as he comes to understand Indian culture.
