The Firm (9pm, NBC) - NBC has moved this struggling drama to Saturday nights, which is not a good sign ("Awake" will air in the old spot on Thursdays starting March 1).

Meanwhile, Tammy works on a cryptic clue in the Sarah Holt case.

Pit Boss (9pm, Animal Planet) - Two back-to-back new episodes for tonight's season finale.

In the 10 p.m. episode, Shorty agrees to be "roasted" at a fundraiser for rescue charities.

Saturday Night Live (11:29pm, NBC) - Maya Rudolph hosts and the music guest is Sleigh Bells.  So, there's basically no way Rudolph can do her excellent Whitney Houston impersonation now, right?

And how's this for cool: We got a chance to interview Galaxy on Thursday!

Jackson Galaxy works magic.

He can not only slow-eye-blink a rageaholic kitty cat into relatively peaceful submission, he can also cajole impertinent cat owners (or impertinent significant others of cat owners) into calm, feline-adoring beings.

Galaxy, a cat behaviorist who stars in Animal Planet's "My Cat From Hell" series, would say there's no magic involved. He would say it's just experience stemming from years of "trench training" in cat shelters and dealing with hundreds of distressed cat owners who are at a loss when it comes to relating to their pets.

Season 2 of "My Cat From Hell" debuts tonight at 8 p.m. on Animal Planet. I spoke with Galaxy by phone on Thursday, and when he wasn't telling me how my own cats were "calling all the shots" in my house, he talked a little about his background with cats and where he hopes to take the show in the future.

Chase (8pm, NBC) - Annie lets the team in on troubling details about her past when they take on a case that involves putting the life of her estranged father in danger. I feel like this (canceled) show will never end.

She is pictured here with Andy Samberg.

Chase (8pm, NBC) - This show has been very rightfully canceled. But if you are one of the few who likes it, continue to watch while you can. Bounty hunter Ben Crowley is recruited to help in the pursuit of a dangerous escapee who has remained on the run thanks to help from family and friends.

My Cat From Hell (9pm, Animal Planet) - I think this show should be renamed "My Boyfriend from Hell" because nearly all the stories so far seem to be about men who don't like their girlfriends' cats. Then the show could be sponsored by Match.com

Saturday Night Live (11:29pm, NBC) - Ed Helms ('The Office') hosts and Paul Simon in the musical guest.

I'm a cat person, so I get excited when Animal Planet adds a cat show to their regular lineup of pit bulls and river monsters.

Tonight they debut 'My Cat From Hell,' a show in which hipster cat behaviorist Jackson Galaxy works with "problem cats" who wreak havoc in their owners' homes. But as you often see in similar shows geared toward problem dogs, the beings in need of the most training are usually two-legged.

It's Me or the Dog (8pm, Animal Planet) - Victoria helps a contentious couple curb their dog's dangerous behavior to ensure the safety of their three kids.

My Cat From Hell (9pm, Animal Planet) - This new show is sort of the counterpart to 'It's Me or the Dog,' just with a way more incendiary title, and the lives of little children aren't in danger here. In tonight's first episode, a stressed out cat comes between a woman and her boyfriend, and a newly engaged couple deal with his dislike of her cats. The host is hipster cat behaviorist Jackson Galaxy, who is not only a zen cat whisperer, but as we see in tonight's episode, a jerk whisperer, too. Read more about the new show.

Lady Gaga Presents the Monster Ball Tour: At Madison Square Garden (9pm, HBO) - The title sort of says it all. Gaga performs with a 10-piece band and 10 backup singers.
