Miss Universe, Bachelor Pad, The Closer

Miss Universe, 9 p.m., NBC
“At Credicard Hall in Sao Paulo, Brazil, women from more than 80 countries vie for the crown in the annual pageant.” I always just go to YouTube the next day and search for the “fall down” video.

Bachelor Pad, 9 p.m., ABC
Thank you, TV gods – it is the series finale of this hideous reality show. I always buy stock in Purell right before this and Big Brother start, and then I sell as soon as they are over. I make a killing. Oh, and goody for us! “Chris Harrison interviews the next Bachelor.”

The Closer, 9 p.m., TNT
Raise your hand if you are soooo in love with Brenda’s attorney, Gavin. Me too! Actor Mark Pellegrino, who is unrecognizable in this role since we last saw him as Jacob on Lost (I know, right?!?) is so great to watch as he comes to the realization of the many layers of Brenda Leigh. The last couple of episodes have been terrific. Tonight, “The squad investigates the death of a deputy sheriff; the judge considers dropping the charges against Brenda.”
