Latest episode clacks for this show:
An exciting week found personal records being set on cable (‘Pawn Stars’) and broadcast (‘NCIS’). In not so happy news, the return of full schedules didn’t do any favors for NBC’s Thursday comedies, or FOX’s ‘Fringe’.

I’m all for a side plot that has nothing whatsoever to do with an episode, but clearing up a stolen identity and thousands of dollars in fraudulent charges in the time it takes Gibbs to solve a murder? Not likely.
Mid-season really heats up this with premieres from ‘Harry’s Law’, ‘American Idol’, ‘Skins’, ‘White Collar’, ‘Royal Pains’, and ‘Fairly Legal’. We also saw the debut of ‘Fringe’ on Friday, and the new NBC Thursday. There are also some surprising numbers for ‘The Game’ on BET, and more ‘Jersey Shore’ craziness.
I would never have imagined that Bob Newhart would fit in as a guest star on ‘NCIS’, but after watching him do so perfectly it dawned on me: how great a father would he have made for Jimmy Palmer?
The mid-season premieres continue to roll out, but not with the numbers that the networks might have been hoping for. ‘The Cape’ and ‘Off The Map’ both had less than stellar starts this week, while Bob’s Burgers took a hand-off from the NFL and scored big.
I’m not sure what the nicest way to put this is, but Diane Neal did a lot better as ADA Casey Novak than she’s done as CGIS Special Agent Abigail Borin. Maybe she’s just better prosecuting criminals.
