Television is a tough business, and so, history is strewn with failed series.

Some failed because they were bad; others because they were before their time.

Today, we offer two giveaway 2-packs that offer the shows' full first seasons AKA the complete series.

First up, "Sherri," the short-lived Lifetime sitcom based on the life of "The View" host Sherri Shepherd. The two-DVD set includes 13 episodes plus bonus webisodes featuring Ms. Shepherd's standup comedy.

We've paired that with "Huge," an acclaimed ABC Family show that starred Nikki Blonsky as a girl who attends fat camp and her relationships and adventures there.

The second package features "Off the Map," the ABC show from the preoducers of "Grey's Anatomy." You'll get more than 500 minutes of the show about young hot doctors in the South American jungle, plus bonus features like the cast discussing jungle medicine and cures.

That comes with the complete series of "Outsourced," the NBC sitcom about an American working at a call center in India. More than 7 hours of viewing with this one, plus a gag reel.

Want in? Just email here for the first package; and here for the second. We'll take entries until 7 tonight (12/20). We'll have a random drawing.

And we won't judge.

Scared Shrekless (8pm, NBC) - This animated tale in which Shrek (Mike Myers) gets in the Halloween spirit by challenging friends to come up with scary stories for a contest bumps "30 Rock" out of the NBC lineup tonight. In the cartoon, the gang learn that they'll have to spend the night in Lord Farquaad's haunted castle before a contest winner is named. Cameron Diaz and Antonio Banderas reprise their roles as Princess Fiona and Puss in Boots, but there's no Eddie Murphy. Dean Edwards plays the role of Donkey.

Community (8:30pm, NBC) - The rest of the NBC sitcoms have Halloween episodes tonight. On "Community," a campus Halloween party takes an unusual turn after Pierce and some students ingest a hazardous substance which produces zombie-like symptoms in them. On "The Office," staffers turn overly competitive during a Halloween costume contest (Timothy Olyphant is back). And on "Outsourced," Todd throws a costume party at the office in an attempt to explain Halloween to his Indian coworkers.

Grey's Anatomy (9pm, ABC) - As a TV crew films hospital life six months after the shooting, patient Mary (Mandy Moore) returns for the surgery she was supposed to ahve that day. Also, Cristina has difficulty expressing herself to the crew.

Project Runway (9pm, Lifetime) - The conclusion of the two-part finale reveals the winning designer. Jessica Simpson is the guest judge.

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia (10pm, FX) - Dee is pregnant and tells the guys that one of them made her that way during a Halloween party that none of them can remember. So they try to piece the evening together "Potemkin"-style, aided by Artemis (Artemis Pebdani) and the McPoyle brothers (Nate Mooney and Jimmi  Simpson).

The Fairy Job Mother (11pm, Lifetime) - A new series in which career specialist Hayley Taylor tries to reshape the lives of families coping with unemployment.

Big Bang Theory (8pm, CBS) - For Season 4, "Big Bang Theory" moves to a new night and new time (formerly Monday nights at 9pm) where it goes up against "Community." Yikes (for both shows). Tonight, Sheldon goes on his first date ever and it's with Amy Fowler (Mayim Bialik). Somehow, Penny finds herself accompanying them.

Community (8pm, NBC) - In the Season 2 opener, the group reconvene to study for their anthropology class, which is taught by a kooky professor (Betty White, of course). Meanwhile, Senor Chang enrolls at Greendale in hopes of joining the study group.

Bones (8pm, Fox) - Season 6 begins seven months after last season's finale when the Jeffersonian team disbanded. They are called by to Washington when a case involving a case involving the body of an unidentified young boy could cost Cam her job.

My Generation (8pm, ABC) - A contrived new series from ABC in which a film crew revisits a group of high school students in Texas who were the subjects of a documentary style reality show ten years earlier. I urge you not to waste your time.

30 Rock (8:30pm, NBC) - Season 5 has Jack interfering with Liz's blooming romance with Carol (Matt Damon) in an effort to help her finally win a man's heart, and Tracy copes with Kenneth's termination as NBC page.

$#*! My Dad Says (8:30, CBS) - This new show (pronounced "Bleep My Dad Says") is based on a popular Twitter feed chronicling the outrageous observations of one guy's dad. It's a flimsy premise, even if it does star William Shatner. Check out our review.

Ken Kwapis, the creator of "Outsourced," has directed the pilot episodes of "The Office," "The Larry Sanders Show," and "The Bernie Mac Show."

"Outsourced" is nothing like any of those shows.

The new NBC sitcom is based on a 2006 movie of the same name, and takes place overseas at a call center in India. The action begins just after an American novelty company shuts down their entire call center and sends those jobs overseas -- and with those jobs, an fresh-faced caucasian American manager to train and run the team.

The early buzz about the show from critics has been that it's borderline racist. Kwapis counters that argument by pointing out that a third of the show's writers are of Indian descent and that Indian-American focus groups love it. I'm not sure if I'd go so far as to say it's racist -- maybe it is and maybe it isn't -- but I certainly do not think it's very flattering to Indians.

NBC announced their new fall schedule this weekend and released some trailers for upcoming shows. As everyone knows by now, they have canceled their 20-year veteran "Law & Order," but are launching a spin-off called "Law & Order: Los Angeles" (aka LOLA). "Outlaw," a legal drama with Jimmy Smits is on Friday nights at 10pm, which isn't exactly a vote of confidence. Looking better is "Undercovers," about a husband-and-wife spy team who come out of retirement. But if it's good, that usually means NBC will cancel it (pardon my cynicism).

There's more. Check below for the schedule (not including five shows that will air mid-season - more about those here) and videos of extended trailers.
