The Big Bang Theory
One small gesture can be worth a thousand punch lines. This becomes clear in the last moments of The Big Bang Theory's funny and ultimately touching season finale (CBS, 8/7c), as the gang prepares to watch Howard Walowitz — or "Froot Loops," to his fellow astronauts (you'll learn why) — go into space. But not before hastily arranging an accelerated wedding for Howard and his beloved, Bernadette (Don't Call Her Ma), whose one condition is that ...

Grant Gustin
One day after Glee aired its winter finale, which included an attempted suicide, a win at Regionals, a near-exchange of matrimonial I do's, and a surprise car wreck, Grant Gustin was back at it...auditioning for film roles while the regular cast shot its next episode.

Ed Helms, Rainn Wilson, John Krasinski
Fans of The Office know that Dunder Mifflin throws one heck of a Christmas party. It brings people together (Dwight and Kelly), it causes fires (to Meredith's hair), and, one year, it even prompted a surprise visit to rehab (seriously, Meredith, it's time to just accept that you have a drinking problem).
But can the annual holiday shindig cure a broken heart? After his split from Mrs. California last week, Robert California (James Spader) stops by the festivities in desperate need of cheering up (and possibly more). "Kevin, I actually appreciate the human intimacy. I feel like a kitten being cradled by a gorilla," he says as Kevin hugs him. "It's been 10 days since...

Bones
Always a popular (if sometimes contentious) topic in my Ask Matt forum, Fox's Bones refutes any notion that its heart isn't in the right place in this week's ultimately touching episode (9/8c). Ralph Waite (forever Papa Walton to many of us, though nowadays better known as Jethro's dad on NCIS) makes a welcome return as Booth's grandfather, bearing some unwelcome news that has the very pregnant Bones (Emily Deschanel) wondering how best to reach ...
