Is Thursday still a must-see TV night? Yes.

NBC used to own Thursday nights in the bygone days of Friends and Seinfeld, but not so much anymore. We don't need NBC to have a good night and here are three reasons we still like Thursday television:

1. Alias is now on Thursday nights at 7pm (ABC/KVUE24). Why they moved this show to this time, we don't know. This season there are rumors (that we hope are not true) that Vaughn (Michael Vartan) won't be in the complete season. We are still eager to watch to see how they will deal with Jennifer Garner's pregnancy and because Balthazar Getty's joining the cast.

2. Everybody Hates Chris, 7pm (UPN). All the praise you've heard for this show is well-earned; it's damn funny. If you missed last week's series premiere, you can view it here to acquaint yourselves with the characters. Tonight's episode has Chris trying to impress his crush, who may be attracted to his younger (and taller) brother.

3. Without a Trace has its season premiere at 9pm (CBS/KEYE42). We gave up on ER a long time ago and have been watching this show ever since.

Also on tonight:
The O.C., 7pm (FOX7). Cal-i-for-nia . . . Hum it with us! Now!
Reunion, 8pm (FOX7). Yes, the writing sucks at times, but the concept is still intriguing.
C.S.I., 8pm (CBS/KEYE42). As if you needed to be reminded.

    I thought thursday night was "get the weekend started early by hitting up the drink specials downtown before it's invaded by baseball caps and mini skirts" night. Television? Give me a break!

    1) ABC horror show is Night Stalker, based on the old series Kolchak: The Night Stalker (which was a big inspiration for Chris Carter in creating the X Files).



    2) UPN should be Time Warner channel 23. We get the San Antonio affiliate.

    do we even get UPN in Austin (Basic Time Warner)?

    Also that new horror series that I really want to see but can't remember the name of...at 8 on ABC:)

    i gave up on ER a long time ago too, after one too many blonde love interests for John Carter, among other annoying things. Why don't they just end this show already?
