What happened on the best shows Wed.-Tues.
"90210": The more smack Dylan come across, the more problems he and girlfriend Gina see. But that is not the least of the problem here; David feels a deep need to get laid; Noah and Donna cannot find a quiet place to get laid; Kelly and Matt are having trouble communicating about their urges to lay each other. In a pre-O.D. fit, Dylan knocks Donna into the pool, where she splits her head open. Ouch!
"Law and Order": A dirty cop fails to prevent a drug dealer from killing one of his snitch's girlfriend's. In order to leverage the officer into testifying about the murder, McCoy tricks him into believing he'll be indicted for manslaughter, even though Lennie Brisco is unwilling to provide the necessary testimony to sway the grand jury. After deliberating for 30 minutes, the jury sentences the drug dealer to death, after the dirty cop rolls.
"Friends": Rachel tries to trick Monica into revealing her still-under-wraps relationship with Chandler but ends up with only a lamp to show for her efforts. Monica becomes an asset to Chandler's "sniveling lackey" routine at work, and "ex" marks the spot as Ross sinks into a deep depression when he finds out his ex-wife is already getting remarried. He finds ridicule from the gang and love with Janice.
"ER": Doug attempts to give a new pain medication to a patient but is caught by Mark, jeopardizing not only their friendship but also the hospital's funding. What's going to happen? Hint: George Clooney is leaving the show to concentrate on other projects. You do the math.
"The Simpsons": (R) "This better work, boy. I wouldn't want to have to work on your mother's emu farm."
"X Files": The red-maned saint revisits issues of the past while tracking a seemingly immortal crime scene photographer. They are both shot and the old man possibly passes his immortality to Scully as he finally dies, fulfilling a prophecy made in the third season that Scully will never die. Mulder sits back to chew sunflower seeds.
"Ally McBeal": (R) The David E. Kelley juggernaut takes a deserved rest to get ready for February sweeps.
"Buffy The Vampire Slayer": Tired of being the useless wheel in the gang, Xander sets out to become cool. This effort turns out to involve a hot turquoise car. Meanwhile, the more skilled members of the crew fight a bunch of baddies who look like Marilyn Manson, Willow tells Xander that she loves him and Giles gets testy when Buffy eats all of the jelly donuts.
"Felicity": Felicity sees Blair making out with a girl who is definitely not his girlfriend Elena. Julie finds her birth mom and Noel compromises his integrity by pretending to be one of his advisee's boyfriend in order to get a sweet deal on a vending machine from the Russian mafia.
