Good Morning America 7:00 AM EDT
The Daily Show with Jon Stewart
Hairspray hype continues today with John Travolta appearing on Good Morning America and Live with Regis and Kelly. Michelle Pfeiffer stops by Today while Christopher Walken talks with Jon Stewart.

The View (ABC) 11:00 AM EDT
Kristen Chenoweth visits the View couch today. Chenoweth's always fabulous but I've got my hopes up that she'll be talking her new show, Pushing Daisies. Daisies is the show I am dying to see because it comes from the mind of out creator Bryan Fuller.

Absolute Wilson (Cinemax) 6:30 PM EDT
Cinemax takes a look at avant-garde director and stage artist, Robert Wilson in this documentary. Wilson, best known for collaborating with Philip Glass on Einstein on the Beach, has a reputation of pushing what theatre can be. Absolute Wilson includes interviews with David Byrne, Philip Glass and one of the last interviews with Susan Sontag.

Without Prejudice (GSN) 9:00 PM EDT
GSN's latest series is a mix between reality TV and game show, where five people pass judgments on strangers, letting their prejudices come out. I didn't see any gay contestants in the preview clip, but the series' producers has worked with a variety of anti-discrimination groups, including GLAAD.

Rick & Steve The Happiest Gay Couple in All the World (Logo) 10:00 PM EDT
The second episode has Rick and Steve participating in each other's lives more, with Steve visiting a Gay Men-za meeting and Rick joining a monster truck rally. Meanwhile, Kirsten and Diana practice caring for a baby when some friends take a vacation. However, nerds should beware -- this episode contains a fiendish trap to out your true nerdiness to whomever you watch TV with. You'll recognize the trap, just remember not to laugh at this incredibly nerdy line until it is explained to the rest of the audience. It's too late for me, but save yourselves!

Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List (Bravo) 10:00 PM EDT
Kathy heads overseas in tonight's episode where she makes an appearance on Graham Norton's show, to promote the DVD release of My Life on the D-List in the UK. I can't wait to see what happens when these two irrepressible personalities meet.

The Late Show with David Letterman (CBS) 11:35 PM EDT
Late Night with Conan O'Brien (NBC) 12:30 AM EDT
If you feel up for some discussion on I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry Adam Sandler is scheduled to talk with David Letterman and Jessica Biel will be visiting Conan's couch.
