Final Off-Day Guide of 2011

TV

8:00 (NBC): The NBC Thursday night lineup is back and it's all new. The Community/Parks and Rec/The Office trio is a must see.

8:00 (ESPN): College football (if you must). It's a snoozefest, though, between NC State and Cincinnati.

10:00 (FX): It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia/Archer. We love Fat Mac and his Hawaiian shirts.

Book

I just got Drew Magary's The Postmortal. I think you'll like it too.

Culture

None tonight, it's comedy TV night. No substitute is worthy.
