TV Premieres: Week of March 28

Category: TV,Upcomingvelveetahead @ 7:54 pm

Greek ends on Monday night and 10 Things I Hate About You takes over in its spot. V starts again this Tuesday. Not sure if it’ll come back next season so it depends on how many people come back to watching it this week. Bones and Fringe comes back from hiatus. On Friday, Stargate Universe comes back in Caprica‘s spot.

Pick of the Week

In Plain Sight
Channel: USA
Time: 10/9c
Starring: Mary McCormack, Frederick Weller, Cristian de la Fuente, Paul Ben-Victor,  Lesley Ann Warren, Nichole Hiltz, Todd Williams, Holly Maples
Premieres: Wednesday, March 31
Trailer

Synopsis: Mary needs to recover from being shot at the end of last season.

My Take: I love the two main characters. I am still not a fan of Mary’s sister and mother, but they were toned down a bit during the second season so hopefully it’ll continue in that direction with them.

Synopsis: After Sam fears that he might actually be Satan’s spawn, he goes off on a road trip with the guys. When they return, they find out they have all been fired from their jobs at the Work Bench and evicted from their apartment.
