I should point out that this Monday (12/20) NBC is airing a preview of new comedy Perfect Couples at 10:00pm. This is a last minute decision, so you might not see any promotion for it.
The show will begin on it's normal day & time starting Thursday, January 20th

Also, according to the episode title, as well as my tivo info guide, the preview episode is #9. I'm not sure if this is just a random single-story story episode, or if the entire series, every episode is basically self-contained.

Please explain the difference between "meehhhh" and "meeeeh"
Also the difference between "get/watch" and "get / watch", you caveman.

so I'm thinking of getting some extra advice as I'm in two minds about this.
My dad likes 5 days of the condor and I managed to get hold of a dvd copy for xmas (with the net at my fingertips and him being non-techy this counts as me being a true god!)
I've downloaded rubicon and watched it and thought it was okay but seemed to end badly when it got cancelled and I was wondering if I should convert it to dvd for him would he like it?
Perhaps I misunderstood the ending and I was wondering if anyone who has also seen it and understood it better would recommend me getting it converted for my dad??

I don't think there was much to understand about the ending of Rubicon, as it was left pretty open-ended, and with no second season coming, it's left to the viewer to decide what the ultimate fate of these characters is.
Having said that, I think the one and only season stands pretty well on its own as a kind of long mini-series, not the fastest-moving television ever made, but engaging and intelligent enough to draw in someone who likes spy stuff.
Hope that helps!

Fringe and Lie to Me are not doomed. That was the big takeaway from the Fox exec session today at the TCA Press Tour.
Regarding Lie to Me, network president Kevin Reilly called the decision not to order additional episodes this season “a needs thing,” adding, “We’ve got a lot of midseason shows that we’re rolling out and we just have to get a little deeper into the spring and size everything up [before deciding on another season]… We’d like to believe there’s [a future] for Lie to Me. It delivers a very loyal audience wherever we put it.”
Reilly also cautioned against delivering last rites to Friday-bound Fringe. “I beg you not to write the eulogy prematurely,” he begged. “It’s a show we’re very passionate about. I want the audience to transfer to Friday. I would be heartbroken if it went away. But if the fans stick with us the show could be on the air for many years.”
