What’s new on TV this week? How about Desmond’s return to the Island, creepy V pregnancies, incompetent wizards, and the Mega Piranha? We’re in the salad days of Spring TV – a zillion awesome shows await you!
MONDAY 4/5/10
It’s Chuck (8 PM, NBC) with “Chuck Versus the Other Guy.” Morgan’s thinking of leaving Buy More, and Shaw’s reeling from the death of his wife. How will Chuck rein Shaw in?

Then we have a new V (“Pound of Flesh,” 10 PM, ABC). Anna starts welcoming us hyper-evolved chimpanzees onto her IKEA fleet, and Valerie’s pregnancy takes a turn for the way creepy.

We also have Ugly Americans at 10:30 PM on Comedy Central. In “Blob Gets a Job,” Leonard and Mark must identify a strange life form. Leonard’s my favorite character – he’s basically omnipotent, but his gross incompetence is a hoot. And he wears a pointy hat!

FlashForward is on at 8 PM on ABC. In “Queen Sacrifice,” Mark and Vogel investigate the mole, Mark leaves his house (because he’s a dumb-ass), and Keiko returns! Also, did Demetri knock up Janis? Inquiring minds want to know!
Vampire Diaries airs at 8 PM on CW. In “Let the Right One In,” Stefan’s at a crossroad, Matt wants his mom around, and Caroline makes a startling discovery.

On Smallville (“Checkmate, 8 PM, CW), it’s more Pam Grier as Amanda Waller. I don’t think I conveyed my jazzed-upedness enough. IT’S MORE PAM GRIER AS AMANDA WALLER.
