Blue Glow

Salon's TV picks for Thursday, Sept. 20, 2001

Published September 20, 2001 5:54PM (EDT)

Series

Will and Nicole battle it out in the final episode of Big Brother 2 (8 p.m., CBS). Friends (8 p.m., NBC) repeats last season's cliffhanger finale, featuring one wedding, two pregnancies (only one of them real) and, for some reason, a guest appearance by Gary Oldman. Cold Feet (8 p.m. PT/ 11 ET, Bravo) begins reruns of the British relationship comedy-drama's third season. Adam and Rachel make a commitment, Pete and Jenny are living apart and Karen and David bring home twins. It's like "Friends," but cooler.

Specials

David Frost: One on One with Michael Douglas (9 p.m., A&E) gets too up close and personal with the vaguely creepy Mr. D.

Sports

Baseball:
Astros at Giants (3:30 p.m., Fox Family)
Braves at Phillies (7 p.m., TBS)

Talk

Although New York-based "Late Show with David Letterman" and "Rosie O'Donnell" are back with new shows, their guest rosters are in flux this week. Below are the confirmed talk show listings.

Jay Leno (NBC) Leelee Sobieski, Cake
Politically Incorrect (ABC) Alfred Molina, Dennis Prager
Conan O'Brien (NBC) Al Roker
Craig Kilborn (CBS) Terry Bradshaw

All times Eastern unless noted.
