Kevin Nealon Guest Stars on Next ‘Til Death’

Fox presents two fresh episodes of ‘Til Death on Sunday, February 7: “The Not-So-Perfect Couple” at 7pm ET and “Independent Action” at 7:30pm.

Brad Garrett, Susan Yeagley/'Til Death 4.10

The first episode up is extra special because it features Saturday Night Live veteran Kevin Nealon and his real-life wife Susan Yeagley (The Sarah Silverman Program, pictured at right above) as guest stars.

The real couple plays fictional couple Simona, a doctor, and Stephen, whom Eddie takes a major liking to after Joy encourages him to seek Simona’s medical services.

As expected, however, Joy comes to regret her initial actions when Eddie begins to think that Simona and Stephen are the perfect couple and starts following Simona’s advice about things that Joy has been telling him forever.

So, to set her husband straight, Joy becomes determined to prove that S&S aren’t all that darn perfect. Look forward to seeing more Nealon and Yeagley later in the season when they reprise their roles on another episode.

During the following episode, “Independent Action,” Eddie and Joy realize they have very different interests after he goes to their yearly baseball game alone.

Meanwhile, Ally and Doug start a mini catastrophe when their efforts to save one tree leads to the entire neighborhood getting hit with an epidemic of tree disease.

‘Til Death airs Sundays on Fox at 7pm.

Secret Diary of a Call Girl: Episode 302 Preview

On Monday, February 8, Showtime import Secret Diary of a Call Girl will present its second fresh episode of the current third season.

Billie Piper/Secret Diary of a Call Girl

Belle’s sister Jackie causes our heroine expected grief when she comes across some of her sister’s sex toys during her visit.

So, to prove to Jackie that not everyone is uptight about sex and in hopes that doing so will free Jackie sexually and encourage her to return to her cheating husband, Belle takes her to a fetish club.

Unfortunately, all Belle gets in return for her well-intentioned efforts is a punch from Jackie, followed by a rejection from a client who doesn’t think the resulting bruise goes with his fantasy. And if that’s not enough trouble, Belle also comes down with a case of writer’s block.

Elsewhere, Bambi tackles her first assignment, which involves an aristocratic client.

Sneak two peeks at Episode 2 below: I Am the Fantasy (Belle ponders fantasies) and Racist Clients (Bambi has a little chat with Stephanie about getting paid more).

Secret Diary of a Call Girl airs Mondays on Showtime at 10pm ET.

Sarah Silverman/The Sarah Silverman Program

‘Meet the Browns’ First Fresh February Episodes

Say goodbye for now to the two-hour comedy blocks featuring four back-to-back new episodes of Meet the Browns, Tyler Perry fans. Starting on February 3, the hit sitcom will halve its Wednesday-night run of fresh material to just two episodes.

Tyler Perry's Meet the Browns

Coming up first on February 3 at 10pm ET is “Meet the Mugger.” And, no, the title isn’t kidding.

Poor Cora is the victim of a mugging during the episode, which makes her understandably paranoid and fearful. Meanwhile, Will flips out for another reason: he finds an unexpected and unwanted gray hair on his head and starts trying to act younger.

Next at 10:30pm is “Meet the Stakeout.” While Brianna is busy helping Sasha at the hospital and becoming friends with Renee, Brown allows the police to use his house so they can watch his new neighbors, who just might be thieves.

Tyler Perry’s Meet the Browns currently airs Wednesdays on TBS.

Modern Family: Minnie Driver Guest Stars on ‘Moon Landing’

Former Riches star Minnie Driver graces ABC’s Modern Family with her enormously talented presence during the brand-new February 3 episode called “Moon Landing.”

Modern Family

The Academy Award-nominated English actress drops by to play Valerie, an old friend of Julie Bowen’s character Claire.

When Valerie pays a visit to Claire’s home, she’s not only very different than how Claire remembers her, but her presence also leaves Claire feeling less than wonderful about herself.

Elsewhere, Gloria gets a little legal help from Mitchell, while Jay has to deal with an odd experience that occurs in the locker room one day when he and Cameron meet up to play some racquetball.

Unfortunately, ABC seems to have forgotten about a sneak peek for “Moon Landing,” so the description will have to do.

Modern Family airs Wednesdays on ABC at 9pm ET.

Next on ‘Two and a Half Men’: Crude and Uncalled For

Veteran television actor and The L Word alum Steven Eckholdt guest stars on “Crude and Uncalled For,” the fresh February 1 episode of CBS sitcom Two and a Half Men.

Charlie Sheen, Angus T. Jones, Jon Cryer/Two and a Half Men

He plays Brad, Alan’s lawyer, whose help is desperately needed…

…After Alan gets into a fight at a bar (yes, a bar fight!!!) and ends up in jail. Worse — for Charlie, at least — it seems Chelsea might have a thing for the attorney.

Check out the quickie promo for “Crude and Uncalled For” below. Shocker! As the clip clearly shows, Alan is actually the one who delivers the first blow during the public brawl. Wonders never cease.

Two and a Half Men airs Mondays on CBS at 9pm ET.

Next on ‘Accidentally on Purpose’: Attack of the 50 Foot Woman

Unfortunately for viewers, there isn’t an actual ginormous female on the brand-new February 1 episode of Accidentally on Purpose called “Attack of the 50 Foot Woman.”

Jenna Elfman/Accidentally on Purpose

Instead we have the same old familiar Billie, who’s behaving extra manipulatively, but for a very good cause.

Tired of coming across like a constant nagger, she decides to find other, more subtle ways to get Zack to do what she wants, such as helping out with chores around her apartment.

Meanwhile, dependably ridiculous Davis pursues and lands a job working at a gay bar to fatten up his wallet a bit.

CBS doesn’t have a promo or sneak peek for “Attack of the 50 Foot Woman” to get us all excited for the episode, but you can take a look at a six-minute clip below featuring Accidentally on Purpose regulars Jon Foster (Zack) and Nicolas Wright (Davis) interviewing series set decorator Eric Hill for the premiere of their so-called lunchtime talk show.

Accidentally on Purpose airs Mondays on CBS at 8:30pm ET.

‘Til Death’ Moves to Sundays at 7pm on January 31

It hasn’t aired since the Christmas Day marathon last month, but on January 31, the Fox sitcom ‘Til Death moves into its new Sunday-night time slot with two fresh episodes.

Joely Fisher, Brad Garrett/'Til Death

From that day until Fox relocates it again (or cancels it), the comedy will air at 7pm ET.

First up on the last day of January is “Joy’s Out of Work” from 7pm to 7:30pm. While Joy is busy putting her natural assets to good use when she’s forced to visit the Unemployment Office after losing her job at the travel agency, Eddie treats Doug to a meal at his favorite restaurant.

Next at 7:30pm is “Hi Def TV.” Joy decides to let loose with her spending when Eddie goes and purchases a brand-new high-definition television without telling her first. But worst of all is poor Doug, who’s stupid enough to begin thinking he’s living his life on a TV sitcom. Duh!

‘Til Death moves from Fridays at 8:30pm ET to Sundays at 7pm on January 31.

The Big Bang Theory: ‘The Einstein Approximation’ Preview

Aaah! A new month, a new episode of CBS’ hit sitcom The Big Bang Theory. Coming up on February 1 is the Sheldon-centric “The Einstein Approximation.”

The Big Bang Theory

And I bet Penny is going to be thrilled during the action, too.

Why? Because when Sheldon gets it into his head that he absolutely must solve a certain physics problem, his strategy for achieving that goal involves him becoming Penny’s colleague at her long-time Cheesecake Factory job. If he scores a waiter gig, I feel sooo sorry for the diners at his tables.

Take a look at both a sneak peek and a promo for “The Einstein Approximation” below.

The Big Bang Theory airs Mondays on CBS at 9:30pm ET.
