Tonight it's all about spray tans, sequins and a couple of fun British accents. My must-watch is none other than Dancing with the Stars: Results Show (9/8c on ABC). Now, I haven't seen a single episode of this ratings juggernaut all season, either the performance or the results shows. I'm a bit sad I missed seeing Carson Kressley strap on his...dancing shoes before he got the boot. So why am I finally tuning in tonight?
-This fun-for-the-whole-family show is currently dealing with some controversy. Hotty hot hot pro dancer Maksim Chmerkovskiy has claimed that the judges are playing favorites. And after head judge Len Goodman reminded Maks that he has been in the business for 50 years and knows what he's talking about, Maks dared to respond: "Maybe it's time to get out." Gasp! As my DVR can attest to, I sure like me some drama, so I hope there's more to see tonight.
-Kristin Chenoweth will be performing. This cute as a button, pocket-sized knockout has more than just pipes - she has a whole sewage system. Loved her as a guest star on Glee. Loved her as a guest judge on So You Think You Can Dance. And I'm betting I'll love her performance tonight as she promotes her new country album.
-And oh yeah, the dancing! There are 7 dancers left, 6 after tonight, so I'm hoping we'll see some real talent out there under the disco ball. Show me what you got, David Arquette!

Her Thursday must-watch (10/20)
Why aren't more of you watching Community (8/7c on ABC)? Today it made TVGuide.com's list of 10 bubble shows that could be canceled if ratings don't turn around soon. After I screamed, threw my remote across the room and screamed out "No, Abed, say it isn't so!", I told myself there was simply no other must-watch option for tonight. And now I'm telling you, ya hear?
To answer my own question posed in the first paragraph, maybe people are too busy watching Big Bang Theory, The Vampire Diaries and now the X Factor Results Show. And I get that. But Community deserves some eyeball lovin' too. For you Big Bang Theory fans, it features a community college version of Sheldon, who is even more robot-like if you can believe that. For those devoted to The Vampire Diaries, Community also features a love triangle (Annie-Jeff-Britta) that just might even turn to a square (enter Troy). And viewers of The X Factor, you're sure to hear some musical numbers from this gang almost every week.
(Did I mention last week's episode single-handedly made me think back on every moment of my life. A simple roll of a dye could take you down 6 different life paths, man!)
So please TV fans, I beg of you, watch Community. I stand by this bubble show, and I am in no way ready for that bubble to be popped. Mama could lose an eye! Not to mention a little piece of my heart. The part that laughs at ridiculously amazing comedy.

Her Wednesday must-watch (10/12)
Happy Wednesday everybody! And what could be a better end to hump day than a little Happy Endings (9:30/8:30c, ABC)? Somewhere in fictional Colorado TV land, Michael Scott's words echo off the mountains: That's what sheeee saaaaaiiidddd!
Reasons to watch this show:
-I've never heard someone who's watched this show say they didn't like it.
-Coach! Damons Wayans Jr. is just a part of this great ensemble cast.
-Unlike other shows over the past few years that have attempted the ensemble cast route to ratings a la Friends, (Perfect Couples, Traffic Light), this one is connecting with audiences and critics alike.
-Funny lady Megan Mullally is guest starring tonight as Penny's mom. A-mah-zing!
-Last but not least, it's my must-watch, biiiitch!

His Wednesday must-watch (9/28)
Honestly, what's better than the 'burbs? White picket fences, neighbors waving as they rake leaves, perfectly edged & mowed green lawns, kids riding bikes around the cul de sac - the list goes on and on. It all sounds pretty good, unless you're a teenager who is accustomed to life in the big city.
Tonight I'll be checking out Suburgatory (8:30/7:30c, ABC). Moving from NYC to the suburbs is an adjustment for anyone. A single dad raising a teenage daughter? Adjustment would be a huge understatement. In this show we follow George Altman and his daughter Tessa as they put the city streets behind for those white picket fences, brining us a father/daughter dynamic that is sure to present a few entertaining moments.
I'm not really sure the show has the legs to make it through the season but I'm willing to give it a shot.
