TOM'S TOTALLY TWISTED TV TRIVIA THINGY Who currently resides at Arsenio Hall's former digs at "Stage 29 at Paramount Studios on Melrose Avenue, in the heart of Hollywood, California in these United States onnnnnnnnnnnnn this planet we call Earth?" A) Byron Allen's "Comics Unleashed" B) "Dr. Phil" C) "Entertainment Tonight" D) "Judge Judy" E) "Rachael Ray" The answer when next we meet. Or not. --- TOM'S TOTALLY TWISTED TV TRIVIA THINGY How much does the "Wheel of Fortune" weigh? A) 500 pounds B) One ton C) 2,500 pounds D) Two tons E) 50 Vanna Whites The answer when next we meet. Or not. --- SATURDAY 8 p.m. The "KIDS' CHOICE AWARDS 2009" (Nickelodeon) smells what the Rock is cooking. And it's not an award for Chris Brown. 9 p.m. Jerry O'Connell has ghosts whispering to him in "NORA ROBERTS' MIDNIGHT BAYOU" (Lifetime). Oddly enough, it's the word "Sliders." "THE NON-OLYMPIC WORLD FIGURE SKATING CHAMPIONSHIPS" (NBC) kicks the regularly scheduled "Celeb Apprentice" with added footage repeat to the curb. It's Jack Coleman's turn to save the world from an evil weather machine on "POLAR STORM" (SyFy), on "MAD Lib Title Generator Theatre." 9:30 p.m. "THE PENGUINS OF MADAGASCAR" (Nickelodeon) hunt down Wall-E and take away his Academy Award. 10 p.m. Ricky Gervais spends extra time on "THE GRAHAM NORTON SHOW" (BBC America). SUNDAY 8 p.m. TELE-GEBRA Maya Angelou x "Charlie's Angels" = "THE NO. 1 LADIES' DETECTIVE AGENCY" (HBO). Probably not the "Sopranos" sized hit HBO wants, but better than "East Bound and Down." Okay, so "Grease: You're the One that I Want" did so well on NBC that the lead in the unnecessary Broadway revival is now usually someone from "American Idol." Perhaps the British version will be better as Andrew Lloyd Weber, Graham Norton and John Barrowman decide "ANY DREAM WILL DO" (BBC America) in the casting of the next lead for "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat." Homer and Marge are getting remarried on "THE SIMPSONS" (Fox). Wacky mayhem ensues. Penn and Goudeau will still be talking about the "Gorilla? Gorilla?? Gorilla??? (Thailand)" episode of "THE AMAZING RACE" (CBS) on Monkey Tuesday. Pops, they're so much like us! David parties while King Silas spends time with his dying bastard son on "KINGS" (NBC). 9 p.m. A psychic cat who can predict death wanders the streets of London in "LITTLE DORRIT" (PBS). Get your fill of albino, bacon and escalator jokes with "JIM GAFFIGAN: KING BABY" (Comedy Central). "Attack of the Show's" Morgan Webb gets her own series going deep into the "G4 UNDERGROUND" to investigate amateur pr0n and real life costumed vigilantes. SWEEPSPLOITATION GUEST STAR PATROL The cast of Star Trek the Next Generation beams onto "FAMILY GUY" (Fox). "THE CELEBRITY APPRENTICE" (NBC) delivers room service. Seriously, Trump. Fire Rodman. 10 p.m. "Torchwood's" lead figures out why he's a poofter on "THE MAKING OF ME: JOHN BARROWMAN" (BBC America). --- QUESTIONABLE ANSWERS Who currently resides at Arsenio Hall's former digs at "Stage 29 at Paramount Studios on Melrose Avenue, in the heart of Hollywood, California in these United States onnnnnnnnnnnnn this planet we call Earth?" It's the "Dr. Phil" Show.
