This Week on TV – 9/4/11-9/10/11

Welcome to a new week of TV! Unfortunately, a hard drive for the server died, and the host seemed to taked forever to get everything back up and running. I believe it should all be fixed now, though! If you have any problems, please try clearing your cache, which is what I ended up having to do!

This is the slowest TV has been all summer. There are some big finales (Hello, Rescue Me on Wednesday and Burn Notice & Rookie Blue on Thursday!), and a few other great episodes on throughout the week, though, so check it out!

Don’t forget to comment or Tweet @tvismypacifier to let us know what YOU are planning to watch this week!
