Friday

As the World Turns (CBS) Check local listings
Friday is this week's Nuke-day as we get another day of Luke (and maybe Noah, maybe) reacting to everyone else's storylines. You're probably going to need a liveblog to stay awake through this one, so be sure to stop back at 2PM Eastern for all the snark you need to get through a day in Oakdale.

Flipping Out Marathon (Bravo) starting at 10:00 AM EDT
Here's your chance to relive all the, uhm, endearing moments of the past season before next week's reunion. Revisit the spying on employees, the birthday present Zoila received in lieu of getting the day off, the even temper of Courtney and ... the one fabulous eleven-year-old who can actually manage Jeff.

Jeff's housekeeper Zoila

The Peter Serafinowitcz Show (G4) 8:30 PM EDT
From what I can tell, this week's notable sketches include a look at the Buttersworth Detective Agency, the first "Guide to Modern Life" sketch (one of this show's really notable series) more O News and, unfortunately, a spot-on Simon Cowell imitation in a sketch as annoying as Cowell himself.

Saturday

Damages Marathon (fx) starting at 7:00 AM EDT
I missed this one on the Queerview the first time around since attorney Ray Fiske doesn't get outed until midway through the season, but here's another chance to catch this complex and critically-praised drama from beginning to end.

Damages' Patty Hewes (Glenn Close) and Ray Fiske (Zeljko Ivanek)

Paula's Party (Food Network) 7:00 PM EDT
Top Model coach Jay Manuel joins Mario Lopez and Joy Behar for a "Red Hot" party featuring a variety of red foods. Ah, if only this were "Alton Brown's Food Science Party" instead...

Kenny vs. Spenny (Comedy Central) 1:30 AM EDT
The two competitive (and always so classy) friends battle to see which one can avoid ... uhm, "showing arousal" first. With his usual insistence that Spenny is really gay, Kenny uses the challenge as a way to try to push Spenny out of the closet.

Kenny baits Spenny once more, sigh.

Sunday

In Focus: Shedding Light on Vampires in America (HBO) 8:45 PM EDT
HBO presents a special news report on the legend of the Blair Witch, er, state of vampires in America, and the ways they mirror the issues gays face.

Shameless (Sundance) 9:00 PM EDT
Uhm, wow ... well Ian will certainly go far to help out his family, won't he? We probably have a week to recover from the thought of what he and Lip did in that bathroom stall together as this week all of Chattsworth Estate scrambles to cover their tracks when the Department of Social Security comes to investigate widespread benefit fraud.

Summer Showdown (HGTV) 9:00 PM EDT
This week features guest judges Mitchell Gold and Bob Williams (who've previously been honored by the Commercial Closet Association) as Lisa LaPorta and Carmen De La Paz face off against Angelo Surmelis and hunky carpenter Carter Oosterhouse in a kitchen remodeling challenge.

Brooke Knows Best (VH1) 10:00 PM EDT
Gay BFF Glenn is put on supportive friend duty again when Brooke meets a new guy who turns out to have a sickening hobby just as she brings Glen to meet him.
