Primetime Preview

"Gilmore Girls" is a repeat. (Already?) "Scrubs" riffs on "The Wizard of Oz," the increasingly ludicrous "Commander In Chief" faces a terrorist takeover of Air Foce One, "The Shield" has lost our interest, we'll be giving "Love Monkey" another shot and both Betty White and Michael J. Fox guest on "Boston Legal." But all eyes are on "American Idol." The first two episodes were extremely well edited -- probably the best balance yet between real talent, miserable singers and compelling/funny backstories. Can they keep it up?

I'm gonna go with Great is Thy Faithfulness (slightly edging out What a Friend We Have in Jesus). Michael, prepare the futon, I'll be down February 3rd!!!

How great thou art, Pete. I'll have the Elvis Gospel music on the CD to get you in the mood.
