Lots of TV on television tonight beyond the on-again Republican National Convention. First, and least threatening to President Bush’s demographic, is The CW’s remake of 90210, which the network did not send to critics in advance, presumably for fear we would be blinded by its sheer awesomeness.
FX, meanwhile, premieres the final season of The Shield (left). The screeners came while I was on vacation, so I’ve got nothing for you yet, but I refer you to Maureen Ryan and Alan Sepinwall’s writeups.
Time permitting, any interest out there in a Shield Watch?
