First at 7pm ET on Sherri’s “Lost Weekend,” the title character does her best to get used to the custody agreement when her son Bo spends his first weekend alone with Kevin. Even so, her girlfriends are forced to distract her when she fails and is unable to relax before she verifies for herself that Bo is okay without her.

Then at 7:30pm on Rita Rocks‘ “Welcome to the Working Week,” Rita and Patty give Owen a much-needed full-body makeover to help him apply for and land a job at Jay’s company, and Hallie tries to persuade Rita to kick Kip out of the band.
