It's sew time.
Project Runway's barely been gone long enough for me to miss it, and yet I'm finally
feeling the excitement about the show's fifth season.
It helps now that we've been able to
see the contestants and, in Fab's case, even
pick a few favorites.

A while ago, I speculated that TNT was becoming
the official network of strong women. Tonight, two of the shows that have made it that way return for new seasons:
The Closer begins its fourth season at 9 p.m. EDT and PDT, while
Saving Grace starts its second immediately after.

In a Summer where HBO is lacking any of its signature series, the network's hopes must be sky-high for
Generation Kill. The seven-episode miniseries from
The Wire's David Simon and Ed Burns premieres Sunday night, and from the early reviews, it seems like it's everything I'd expect from a Simon/Burns project.
What that means: On the plus side, it's well-written, in-depth, and revealing.
Mad Men has the critical buzz, but
Burn Notice — another cable show entering its second season — had the viewers last Summer. The USA series brought in 4 million viewers for its premiere and stayed close to that level all season, jumping up to 5 million viewers when DVR-watching was factored in. That's pretty striking for a cable show.

Tonight, NBC is airing the one episode of
Celebrity Family Feud that I've truly been waiting for. The casts of two great NBC comedies — plus a third show, which I suppose could be considered a comedy depending on how you feel about people in spandex racing against other people in spandex — will face off in an epic feud.
The episode will have several rounds, and of them, I'm most excited about the accountants of
The Office taking on the
American Gladiators (who are, naturally, in costume).
