WHAT'S ON TONIGHT - Tuesday, January 6, 2009
Tonight's Premieres:
ABC: Homeland Security USA at 8p; Scrubs at 9p; Primetime: What Would You Do? at 10p
NBC: The Biggest Loser: Couples at 8p
MNT: Vice Squad at 9p
FX: Nip/Tuck at 10p
Discovery Channel: Wreckreation Nation at 10p
TBS: 10 Items or Less at 11p
A&E Network rang in the New Year with the debut of season eight of the real-life justice series The First 48 last Thursday at 9p. The opening episode attracted 1.3 million A25-54 viewers, 1.4 million A18-49 viewers and 2.3 million total viewers.
During NBC's Super Bowl XLIII broadcast on February 1, viewers will need 3-D glasses to view a 90-second commercial promoting the March release of animated movie Monsters vs. Aliens from DreamWorks Animation. DreamWorks CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg said the 90-second commercial plus giving away 150 million pairs of 3-D glasses through 28,000 retail locations via the Pepsi/SoBe Life displays will cost "tens of millions of dollars" and he calls the deal "perhaps the biggest media-advertising event in history." A single 30-second ad in the Super Bowl is tabbed at approximately $3 million.
Bravo is back in Manhattan as season two of The Real Housewives of New York City debuts February 17 at 11p following the finale of The Real Housewives of Orange County. The series will shift to its normal time slot of Tuesdays at 10p starting February 24.
