CHECK OUT WHAT TO WATCH AFTER THE JUMP

NOTE: ALL TIMES EASTERN & PACIFIC!!!

SANCTUARY
Network: Syfy

Reasons to watch: The character of Nikola Tesla appears. Isn’t that an awesome name? It’s the most rock-and-roll scientist name out there.
 

CRASH
Network: Showtime
Time: 10 – 11PM

Reasons to watch: The season two finale features a showdown with Manson fanatics. They have those? Still?? In this day and age??? Is Crash about racism or time-traveling racists? I don’t have Showtime so I don’t know.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 19th, 2009

MY NAME IS BRUCE
Network: Syfy
Time: 9 – 11PM

Reasons to watch: This is a movie about Bruce Campbell saving a small town from evil. Not some cheesy Lifetime Television movie about Bruce Campbell overcoming rape, as the title would suggest.

RAW ANATOMY: INSIDE THE ELEPHANT
Network: National Geographic Channel
Time: 8 – 9PM

Reasons to watch: This is your last chance of the decade to see an elephant chopped in two.

SUNDAY, DECEMBER 20th, 2009

SURVIVOR: SAMOA
Network: CBS
Time: 8 – 9PM

Reasons to watch: The jury members cast their votes for the winners. I still think they’re crazy for going there. Samoans are virtuall unstoppable. They’re like Pan-Asian RoboCops. Did the cast members think they’d make it out of there without being boiled in a huge-ass cauldron?

DOMINION: PREQUEL TO THE EXORCIST
Network: Syfy
Time: 9 – 11:30PM

Reasons to watch: Not to be confused with Exorcist: The Beginning. This is the OTHER crappy Exorcist prequel.
