09:00 p.m. Fox "DON'T FORGET THE LYRICS!" (1:00)
(After watching the premier episode of this show I vowed never to
watch it again. Well, now I have to take that vow back. Fox has been
promoting this episode with clips of an 11-year-old boy singing and
the teaser, "Will this boy become the first million-dollar singer?" --
or whatever the actual words were. Anywho, this might be worth
catching)
