The View (ABC) 11:00 AM EDT
Ross the Intern shows up to talk about his experiences on Celebrity Fit Club. Considering how Ross has been treated by Jay Leno and Tyra Banks, I hope this turns out to be one of the calmer episodes of The View. Kathy Griffin guest-hosts.

On the Lot (Fox) 8:00 PM EST
We hear that Shalini Kantayya is presenting a film on Indian gay comedian Vidur Kapur. Shalini's first entry, "Love in the Year 2007" had the best line of the night -- "My life is not lonely, I have over 2000 MySpace friends!" Between that and Kapur's YouTube channel I'm eager to see what happens when the two work together.
