This week's My Name Is Earl, again starring Alyssa Milano as Earl's make-believe wife, gives us the conclusion of the "Earl in a coma" saga. Unconvinced that his good deeds will succeed in rising his brother out of his coma, Randy takes Earl out into the world to allow him to his own list item. With nothing but the best intentions, Randy searches frantically for a list-item Earl can accomplish himself, despite being unconscious.

Last week on My Name is Earl, Earl was left in a coma and trapped in his TV Land subconscious, leaving it up to Randy to finish off his list for him. This week, Randy and Joy take their first stab at the karma list. Using Earl's drool to choose their task, they select an incident where he and Randy stole a motorcycle. The owners of the bike turn out to be the hosts of American Chopper.
In Earl's coma dream, he is greeted with the wonderful news that his imaginary wife, Billie (Alyssa Milano) is pregnant with their baby. Accidentally eavesdropping on a phone conversation with their make-believe neighbor, Joy, Earl believes them to be talking about an affair Billie is having with another man. In typical sitcom fashion, this misunderstanding leads to some outrageous circumstances and ends up foreshadowing Randy and Joy's real-life adventure.

After the long hiatus, My Name Is Earl finally returns with an hour long second-half-of-the-season premiere. Following suit with the beginning of the season, it again had various guest stars, not only featuring Alyssa Milano as Earl's love interest, but also giving us Carrie Aizley and Paris Hilton.
We open with the NBC President taking time to give us a quick recap of what happened prior to the writer's strike, taking care to poke fun at the writers with some jabs undoubtedly scripted by the writers themselves.

Previously on My Name is Earl, Earl Hickey (Jason Lee) was finally set free after spending the first part of the season in prison. Unfortunately, his freedom was short-lived as he was hit by a car. When we last saw him, he was lying on the road unconscious, along with the person who hit him who turns out to be his potential soul mate Billie (Alyssa Milano).
Tonight's one-hour episode, “I Won't Die With a Little Help From My Friends,” marks the return of My Name is Earl in its original Thursday schedule. Read on for a preview.

If wishes really could come true, I believe that we'd never see the likes of Paris Hilton or Kevin Federline on our television screens again. However, we live in a world where wishes are nothing but wasted breath, which is why K-Fed just finished up a three episode arc on One Tree Hill and Paris Hilton will soon be appearing on NBC. Yes, the network announced today that the airheaded heiress will be embarrassing herself on the one hour return of My Name is Earl on April 3. The episode, entitled "I Won't Die With A Little Help From My Friends," finds Earl unconscious and seeing various things from the real world in his comatose state. One of the things that pops up in Earl's mind is Paris Hilton, who will be playing herself in the episode.

After spending an entire season in prison, Earl finally celebrates his first day out of the slammer in tonight's My Name is Earl. Unfortunately , despite a "Welcome Back" party, Earl doesn't quite come back to the life he was expecting after being released and struggles with his role now that he's supposedly paid his debt to society, and karma as well. He quickly meets up with his old crime buddy, Ralph (Giovanni Ribisi) and is soon back to his old ways, much to the disappointment of his friends and peers.

ABC really wants to torpedo the premiere of The Apprentice: Celebrity Edition. Following NBC's announcement that they were moving back The Celebrity Apprentice's premiere one week (from January 3 to January 10) to avoid college football and the final pre-strike episode of Grey's Anatomy, ABC announced today that they were moving back the final pre-strike episode of Grey's Anatomy to December 10 as well. Both shows are set to air at 9pm. Both of these announcements are accompanied by major shuffling of air dates for ABC and NBC shows. Here's a look at where the final pre-strike episodes of some of ABC and NBC series will now fall.

Happy holidays, everyone!
I know what I'm doing during the holidays, and that is catching up on all my favorite shows that I've missed this fall. NBC Rewind is making it easy for me to do that because I can watch all my favorite shows online at http://www.nbc.com/Video. (I've missed a few episodes of Chuck, so that's first on my list to watch on Rewind.)
NBC is also helping us celebrate the holidays here at BuddyTV by providing us with a gift pack that includes Heroes season 1 on DVD, plus many more fun items! Read on to see what you can win!
