Fringe (Fox, Friday) — Season finale. Tonight’s episode is titled “The Day We Died,” and the “Fringe” fan community is so excited that they’ve been been breathing into paper bags all day. I posted the creepy trailer for the finale earlier this week; you can watch another two-minute clip on the next page.
Saturday Night Live (NBC) — Tina Fey hosts, with musical guest Ellie Goulding. Once again, I have no idea who the musical guest is, but she apparently played at the royal wedding, so I’m guessing she’s British. Not like it matters: I’m just going to fast forward through her numbers when I watch this on Sunday morning. (Watch Fey’s promos with Kristen Wiig on the next page.)
The Amazing Race (CBS, Sunday) — Season finale. Few things give me greater pleasure than my complete and total ignorance of all things CBS. I relish that blind spot.
CSI: Miami (CBS, Sunday) — Season finale. Once more, with feeling.
Lady Gaga Presents the Monster Ball Tour: At Madison Square Garden (HBO) — Dancing, makeup, and outlandish costumes. Not really my thing, but I can’t fault anyone for getting down to “Poker Face.” Below the SNL video on the next page, you can see a preview clip of Gaga blubbering about her hard life and enemies and blah blah blah. It was really stupid so I added a nice GIF of her air-humping below that.

Boo hoo hoo it’s so hard to be Gaga:
