It was announced to the group that one of them is a saboteur and is not playing to last the entire game and win, but to instead mess it all up, create false alliances, spread lies, etc..... for everyone else. I think if this person lasts 5 weeks (I think it's 5 weeks), they get $50,000.

That's a neat little twist. You have to walk a fine line, because you don't want to be too obvious and get voted out early, but you also need to create some chaos.

I think britney is the saboteur. Annie or andrew is a bit too obvious, but britney is flying very low, and seems to be making deals with everyone. Either her or lane.

White Collar returns tonight and that show with Piper Perabo begins. I'll watch one episode because she's really cute, but it will probably piss me off if she takes down a 6'4 guy.

Nobody watches The Closer? I think that is the best cop show on TV and I have watched every episode. I think this is already season 5 or 6 or something. Brilliant cast, funny as hell, genius cases where you typically don't know the answer until the end (like on Castle).

Rizzoli & Isles that followed The Closer last night was very good. Also a cop show.

I watched it! Love The Closer, watched the season premiere last night which was good. I love her character.

Rizzoli and Isles was pretty good. I'll watch it next week for sure.

Kyra Sedgwick is fantastic... she looks great, is so goofy, and yet brilliant in her thinking. She has to be one of my favorite characters in the last 10 or 20 years on TV. The writing, acting, and entire cast couldn't be better on that show.

The Piper Perabo show was very good. Looks like a quality show. A lot of familiar faces from all over... Henry from Ugly Betty, Biatch from House, the Leverage guy's wife, the blonde's husband that I can't recall the name of is a very good actor, and hotness herself Emmanuelle Vaugier. Emmanuelle would have been perfect in lead role. Biatch would also make a great CIA agent. But, oh well.

I don't know why the assassin was running from Piper. What could she do when she caught him... make out with him? And he would have killed her if not for.... well, spoiler, so I won't mention it.

But it's a quality show. They got a lot of good actors and put respectable effort into it.

I'll watch next week.

Watched the first episode of Avatar after hearing how badly the movie screwed up the greatness of the show. So far, not impressed. It's only three seasons, so I'll try and make it through. Has anybody watched this?

I have watched it, but I like the reality games more. I don't watch the Real World, but I still watch the Challenges.

I still like Friday Night Lights too. In the fourth season on NBC, and it is still a great show.

Season 1 of FNL is up there with my favorite TV of all time. Season 4 has been good, but they sort of took the football out of the show.

It has a really stupid schedule. It airs on Direct TV first, then months later, NBC will air it in the summer. I'll be surprised if it goes much longer.
