Queerview television guide: September 9

After months of anticipation, Ryan Murphy's high school jukebox musical, Glee returns with a new episode tonight. Will tonight's return keep "gleeks" enthusiastic for the series?

But first, it's a soap opera double-feature today as Fish and the rest of the Llanview PD continue to go after Serge on One Life to Live and Mason gets some hot nursing from Noah As the World Turns. Join us when we liveblog today's ATWT starting at 2PM Eastern!

The Bonnie Hunt Show (syndicated) Check local listings
Bonnie previews Glee today with cast members Chris Colfer, Kevin McHale, Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, Amber Riley and Jenna Ushkowitz.

As the World Turns (CBS) Check local listings
Mason realizes his attraction to Noah today when, in a soap opera tradition, the student plays nurse to his professor after Mason has an accident on his bike.

One Life to Live (ABC) Check local listings
It's more drug-bust action on today's show as Fish does his part in helping the Llanview PD find the kidnapped Star and Cole. Is it wrong that I'm cheering against Fish and his colleagues at the moment?

America's Next Top Model (CW) 8:00 PM EDT
The gay-fave reality series also returns tonight with art directors Jay Manuel and coach/judge J Alexander back for the action... and, usually, there's more gay men showing up as experts throughout the season.

Has SYTYCD changed its ways?

So You Think You Can Dance (Fox) 8:00 PM EDT
And speaking of gay-fave reality series, Fox's dance competition debuts it first fall season tonight. Last season the show used homophobia as entertainment but this season promises that a same-sex couple will make it to Vegas. Will it be enough to make amends?

Glee (Fox) 9:00 PM EDT
I'll admit, I'm one of those who watched the pilot and felt a bit wary. The characters were all a bit too broadly-drawn for my tastes and it's going to take some work to make Glee club adviser Will likable. I'm hoping Glee can win me over, since the pilot for Murphy's Popular's was nowhere as interesting as what that series became, but I'm not so sure I can keep my guy watching with me.

Top Chef (Bravo) 10:00 PM EDT
The cheftestants have to show their ability with French cuisine tonight, as they have to pair off and create dishes to impress five acclaimed chefs.

The Real World's Derek

The Real World (MTV) 10:00 PM EDT
The roommates say goodbye to each other and Cancun in tonight's season finale. Out houseguest Derek hasn't had much screen time, but at least he hasn't joined a list of reality TV stars who have become a source of gay shame.

Jimmy Kimmel Live (ABC) 12:0 AM EDT
Jimmy has a night of gay-faves as comedienne Kathy Griffin makes another visit (and Kathy's visits usually get buzz on the gay quarters of the internet the next day) along with True Blood hottie Ryan Kwanten.

Daytime Preview for Thursday, September 10

One Life to Live (ABC) Check local listings
While the Llanview police should continue to be busy chasing down Serge, Cole and Star (how am I supposed to stop myself from thinking of Cole and Star as Rocky and Bullwinkle, now?), Stacy is waiting to see how her pregnancy test comes out. Will there be a secret Fish fetus?

    Somewhere, Right Now...

    ...Snicks is kicking himself for not thinking of that first.

    Bonnie Hunt

    Even though Bonnie can't interview worth a damn, it's totally worth sitting through for the interview with the cast. There's lousy time management, but they're a lot of fun. Biggest complaint? Matthew Morrison needed a shave and a haircut.

    I personally

    Thinks he looks much hotter with shaved head. Yum.

    Broadway bares

    I thoroughly enjoyed his Broadway Bares appearance, even with the crappy quality video on the video sites.

    And I've seen previews of him sharing a bath with that shrew of a wife they wrote for him. Here's hoping he wanders around in little more than a towel if I have to listen to her whine.

    Force your man to watch Glee with you

    If you can. ;) I think the chance of him (and you) not liking the second episode is vey slim. From what I heard (and all the previews clips I`ve seen so far) it is much better than the pilot and very VERY funny, with a few very touching moment.
