Hello, my friends. I'm back to recap episode four! Episode three has been recapped and is posted below if you need to catch up.We start at some weird sculpture in the desert. A man meets (the fabulous) guest star Dave Foley to discuss offing someone in exchange for money. Dave's got a ton of medical issues for a hitman including diabetes and asthma. But I guess that never stopped a con man assassin before! Actually, it seems as thought Dave's just kinda the middleman — meaning he doesn't do the killing — someone named "Lola" does. Dave takes the money from the man who turns out to be an FBI agent. Busted!Cut to: His WITSEC ID, which is "Pending." Mary walks into the office with a bunch of fancy coffee drinks, and Marshall immediately asks, "Who died?" Hee. He insists she's not a "treater"; so she promptly asks him for $3.50. Stan calls them in for a meeting, so Mary tells Marshall to collect four bucks for his coffee. She then spots a letter to Marshall from a security a...

Dave Foley holds all the power on Thank God You're Here.
One-fifth of the late, great sketch comedy troupe Kids in the Hall, Dave Foley has gone full circle, returning to the unpredictable world of improv playing judge and jury on NBC's Thank God You're Here (Wednesdays at 8 pm/ET), an amusing comedy-competition series in which performers act in scenes without benefit of a script.
TV Guide: What qualifies you for this? Dave Foley: I think obviously being the wisest of all comedians is my main qualification. Really — if I'm to be honest with you — next to nothing. I have no qualifications for this job or, for that matter, any of the jobs I've ever had.
TV Guide: How does it feel wielding so much power over your comic colleagues? Foley: [Laughs] It's od

A few guest-casting quickies:• Jason Lewis (currently appearing on Brothers & Sisters) drops by ABC's Six Degrees on March 30, playing a guy Bridget Moynahan's Whitney beds on the rebound. Then on April 6, Ray Wise (Twin Peaks) plays Whit's real-estate-developer dad.• Dave Foley plays a guy with a crush on Old Christine on April 9.• Daniel Benzali ("the bald guy from Murder One," as SNL once put it) visits CBS' Jericho on April 11.

Perhaps never having tried to sit through any 10 minutes of ABC's Whose Line Is It, Anyway?, NBC has ordered six episodes of Thank God You're Here, an improv-comedy series from the producers of American Idol (which is, in its own way, an improv-comedy series). In Living Color alum David Alan Grier will host each hour, with grown-up Kid in the Hall Dave Foley deciding which guest celebrity performs best under a variety of wacky conditions. In other Peacock news, the network has also picked up Identity as a regular series, which means I cannot watch it more frequently.

ScrubsElliot's sexual fantasies have always been ripped from romance novels, so it is no surprise that she's got her new boy toy playing Mexican apple thief and orchard owner. It is, however, a little weird that roomie JD is in on the foreplay action as the sombrero-donning Paco. That's a little less Three's Company and a little more Too Close for Comfort. Loved Dave Foley as a grief counselor, especially when he deadpans the line "You just have that look of someone who is going to die young," to JD. And the writers deserve some extra credit for timing Dr. Cox's stages of grief so well with the loss of a patient. Very clever. I liked anger the best. You can't beat a frustrated Perry, who grunted, "If he keeps ignoring my threats... I'm gonna

Vanessa Marcil, Las Vegas
While all those media-maven types theorize about the true meaning of Las Vegas' time-slot change — NBC's Monday mainstay is moving to Fridays at 9, starting tonight, March 3 — Vanessa Marcil won't be bothered. As the Montecito's hostess with the oh-so-mostess, she is relishing her dream job, a role she values a distant second behind that of mother to son Kassius, who turns 4 this month. In this candid Q&A with TVGuide.com, the brunette beauty cheers "Viva Las Vegas" — and reveals at least two celebrity crushes.

While all those media-maven types theorize about the true meaning of Las Vegas' upcoming time-slot change — NBC's Monday-night mainstay is moving to Fridays at 9, starting March 3 — Vanessa Marcil won't be bothered.

This was the first Saturday Night Live (or for me "Sunday Afternoon Recorded") this season that I watched in its entirety without having to fast-forward through the more painful sketches (though I did skip most of Shakira shaking her groove thing). For this I have to credit Alec Baldwin and his previous 11 experiences hosting, which clearly made him more relaxed in front of the camera and willing to do anything from sharing a Slim Jim with Horatio Sanz to marrying a hot dog to playing a prospector in "Brokeback Goldmine." The voice-over description cracked me up: "Dare to let the whiskers of two old prospectors touch you in a special way." And the cowboy movie didn't escape with just that one sketch, Tina Fey's dad supplied a great joke during Weekend Upd

If you love topless women with ample assets, Ed, Mike and Danny solving a couple capers and yes, more guest stars than you can shake a stick at, then you've come to the right casino. Counterfeit chips keep Ed and Mike busy. No less than Richard Lewis, Paul Anka and Dennis Rodman ante up for a pseudo celebrity-poker showdown with Danny. At this point, I really was hoping Phil Gordon and Dave Foley would make a surprise appearance. Instead we get to hear Rodman ask when the Pussycat Dolls go on. Las Vegas, you slay me. At least you have the good sense to bring Mitch back into the security fold. Welcome back, Mitch Longley!
One of my favorite over-the-top moments (out of so many) is when Ed is interrogating some Barbie doll who seems to be bestest buds with the word "like." She like, talks like this but can't really like, tell her story in a way like, anyone would understand. OK? Like, totally! As for Lara Flynn Boyle, her
