Modern Family (ABC) — In this week’s installment of “Manny is the Worst,” the gang packs up and heads to Disneyland for what I’m sure will be 22-minutes of shameless product placement.
Don’t Trust the B—- in Apt. 23 (ABC) — I liked this show a lot more before I found out that Krysten Ritter has never seen “Dawson’s Creek.” I just don’t know if I can trust someone in my age bracket who hasn’t seen “Dawson’s Creek.” Maybe she grew up without electricity or something.
Survivor (CBS) — It’s the penultimate episode of the season (the two-hour finale is on Sunday). I’m just glad we’ve avoided, so far, one of those silly reward challenges where Jeff cracks out the movie screen, gives the winners popcorn, and tries to pretend that watching a few clips from an upcoming Adam Sandler movie is supposed to be considered a reward.
Around the World in 80 Plates (Bravo) — Another cooking competition show on Bravo? They’re really diluting their “Top Chef” brand with these (“Top Chef Masters'” Curtis Stone hosts). This one has chef contestants traveling around the world and participating in culinary challenges relating to regional cuisines. I mean, I guess. If there’s nothing else to watch this summer.
Betty White’s Off Their Rockers (NBC) — Tonight’s episode, no lie, will feature guest appearances from Wink effing Martindale and Batman’s Adam West. THIS SHOW IS GETTING TWICE THE RATINGS OF “COMMUNITY.” What is wrong with people.
LATE NIGHT LISTINGS: I would never, ever otherwise recommend you watch Jay Leno, but see tweet above. ONE TIME EXCEPTION. Letterman has Eva Longoria, who probably won’t be telling stories about being nude; Kimmel has Steve Harvey; Howard Stern is on Fallon, probably to prattle on about that damn reality competition he’s a judge on now; and, interestingly, Anna Wintour is on Colbert.
