Top Story

Hey everyone, I’m Murtz Jaffer, and welcome to the all new Inside Pulse TV Daily. Every day I’ll check in with a look at what’s hot in the world of IPTV, including previews, news, spoilers and much more.

What to watch tonight?
What should be on your nighttime TV radar – for good OR bad reasons.

American Idol (FOX) 8 p.m.
The top 12 finalists perform for the first time.

First top 12 show is a must-see.

Lost (ABC) 9 p.m.
Locke tasks Sawyer with a mission.

Looks like we will finally find out where Sawyer has been.

Southland (TNT) 10 p.m.
Alone for the first time in a patrol car, Officer Sherman handles the case of a missing girl and a stalker; Detectives Salinger and Bryant find it difficult to work with Det. Puente, the leader of the gang task force; Now partnered with Officer Cooper, Officer Brown struggles to gain command presence and to prove herself.

Happy that TNT brought this back after NBC totally dropped the ball with it

Parenthood (NBC) 10 p.m.
Adam (Peter Krause) and Kristina (Monica Potter) have their hands full when Max (Max Burkholder) gets kicked out of school while Sarah (Lauren Graham) struggles with her love life; Meanwhile, Crosby (Dax Shepard) spends a fun-filled day with Jabbar (Tyree Brown) and Julia (Erika Christensen) realizes that she’s missing out on her daughter’s life.

Perhaps the biggest winner of NBC moving Jay Leno back to the The Tonight Show.
