Whats Hot On TV

Apparently Michael Phelps wasn’t happy with his fifteen minutes of fame being over, as now he’s appearing in an interview on 60 Minutes tonight. Honestly, aren’ we done with him yet? Aside from the football, we also have the final four facing off on The Amazing Race, and Tinker Bell making its primetime debut on Disney, as the fairy strikes out on her own away from Peter Pan. Maybe she wants another fifteen minutes as well.

1. Fast Times at Ridgemont High. Teen comedy from the 80s which made a star of Sean Penn after he appeared in this as a stoner. The cultural references are reason alone to watch this as they talk about Cheap Trick and Pat Benatar, with the more fashionable people wearing leg warmers. 10:45 AM PM CT @Max

2. NFL Football: Panthers at Packers. Carolina is having a great year, but Green Bay really needs this win. At one point they were tied at the top of the NFC Central for first place, but now with the Bears and Vikings playing each other tonight, one of them will have first place, leaving the Packers to either tie for second or take third with a loss. 12:00 PM CT Fox

3. NFL Football: Steelers at Patriots. Pittsburgh is at the top of their division, and New England wants to be at the top of theirs. Bill Belichick is looking for his 150th win as a head coach. 3:15 PM CT CBS

4. Shrek the Third. Every Shrek movie is always a good time. Some people have panned this third installment in the series, but to me, Michael Myers is still giving me just as good of a time as I had with the first two. 4:00 PM CT HBO East
