Pick of the Week: Wild Wednesday

Those of you who are longtime readers of this blog know about Manic Monday. That’s what I called Monday nights when I would watch “24” live at 9 while taping “Heroes” and then rewind the tape and watch “Heroes” at 10 after seeing the sunglasses on moment of “CSI:Miami.”

There’s a slight possibility that Manic Monday may return, depending on how Monday’s episode of “Heroes” turns out. But in the meantime, a new day of the week has replaced it—Wild Wednesdays.

Sadly, this week will be the wildest of them all. And because each hour of the night is important, I’m making the whole night my pick…

My Pick of the Week is Wild Wednesday…

The night kicks off with “American Idol.” This episode will reveal the top 36 in a two-hour episode.

This means I will have to tape “Lost” at 9 p.m. This episode will build on the big reveal at the end of last week’s episode and Locke will take steps to end all the time traveling, so it’s not an episode to be missed.

But because I will be so involved in all of the “Idol” drama for my other blog, I will also need to tape “Top Chef.” This is the episode that will decide which four contestants will move to the finals in New Orleans. Or I can forgo sleep and watch the encore at 11 p.m. which I think we all know is what I’ll do…

Unless I decide to watch “Lost” at 11 p.m. But then I don’t really like to watch it late at night—especially since the smoke monster is supposed to return soon…

“American Idol” airs Wednesday February 11th at 8 p.m. on FOX, “Lost” airs Wednesday, February 11th at 9 p.m. on ABC and “Top Chef” airs Wednesday, February 11th at 10 p.m. on Bravo…
