Or not. --- 8 p.m. Mos Def is one bed over from "HOUSE" (Fox) and the good doc recognizes that Def, while paralyzed isn't Def, dumb, and blind. A jealous Penny hates the new neighbor on "THE BIG BANG THEORY" (CBS). "GOSSIP GIRL" (CW) has a super sweet 16 thanks to the government bailout. The Cylons invade "CHUCK" (NBC) on The Wheel of Unnecessary Guest Stars. 8:30 p.m. "HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER" (CBS) gets childish as Ted comes up with a list of things they all should be too grown up for and Barney deciding it's a bucket list he can accomplish in a single day. 9 p.m. "JONESTOWN: THE LIFE AND DEATH OF PEOPLES TEMPLE" (PBS) brought to you by Flavor-Aid, Proud That You Think It Was Kool Aid.

"MEDIUM" (NBC) can now tell when someone is lying .... how Tim Roth of her. --- QUESTIONABLE ANSWERS How much does the "Wheel of Fortune" weigh? More than you'd think.
