Big Brother 11 (8pm, CBS) - Another houseguest is eliminated tonight, and our own "Jessica Simpson of Matthews" is on the chopping block. We hope the suits at VH1 or E! are paying attention and scoop up Jordan for her own reality spinoff show.
She's Got the Look (9pm, TVLand) - After two photo shoots in Miami and a runway walk with professional models, a winner is chosen tonight in the second season finale.
Royal Pains (10pm, USA) - Hank treats a famous children's book author with a serious heart ailment, which causes tension with Jill (who I think is the weak link in this show, by the way). And Peter Jacobson from "House" guest stars as a newlywed with an ailment that takes all the fun out of typical newlywed activities.
Real Housewives of Atlanta 2 (10pm, Bravo) - Hold on to your Louis Vuitton bag, because the greatest Real Housewives are back! Tonight's second season premiere begins reasonably enough by playing catch-up with four of the women from last year (plus Dwight!), and by introducing us to the newest addition (Kandi Burruss, right), but then things suddenly flip into Crazy Gear near the end. Atlanta does not disappoint! Do Not Miss.

Thu, 07/30/2009 - 09:06 — brookecain (author)We encourage it because we think it's an entertaining reality TV show and we like it. (And by "we" I mean Adrienne and I, since I don't know if the other Happiness contributors watch). None of these women live in Atlanta proper, and I'm sure no one thinks they are representative of all people in or around Atlanta. But it makes for good TV. I can't help but think the Buckhead ladies wouldn't be nearly as entertaining as this crew. And if people don't like it, there's plenty of other stuff on.
