Dog Whisperer
Good Morning America
7/6 CT ABC
Kelly Clarkson, the first American Idol winner and, many say, the best, doesn't have a new album coming out this week (her latest, All I Ever Wanted, has been a fixture on the Billboard 200 since its release in March), but the third single from it, "Already Gone," has already established its own Billboard beachhead. You can expect that she'll perform the new single this morning when she headlines GMA's Central Park summer concert.

Wizards on Deck with Hannah Montana
8 pm/ET Disney
Three of Disney's biggest hits (Hannah Montana, Wizards of Waverly Place, The Suite Life on Deck) cross over in this 90-minute laughfest that is sure to please fans of all three shows. The fun begins when Justin, Alex and Max Russo join a teen cruise on the SS Tipton, which is, of course, the home of Zack and Cody Martin... and London Tipton.

Don't Forget The Lyrics
Good Morning America
7 am/ET ABC
Is it just our intuition or does Jamie Foxx have an upcoming tour to promote? As it happens, his Intuition (that's his latest CD) Tour kicks off July 3 in Las Vegas. He'll be busy before that, too: Spike's Guys Choice awards on Sunday and The BET Awards (which he'll host) on June 28. Maybe there'll be an Obama impression someplace, but Foxx's focus this morning on GMA's Central Park concert will be on keeping up the momentum from "Blame It," his platinum single from Intuition.

Real Time with Bill Maher
Good Morning America
7 am/ET ABC
GMA kicks off its annual Summer Concert Series at a new Big Apple venue: Rumsey Playfield in Central Park, the home of the Central Park SummerStage. First up: Green Day, whose new CD, 21st Century Breakdown, is the veteran punk band's first studio release since the 2004 rock opera American Idiot. Like Idiot, Breakdown is both narrative (it follows a young couple through this decade) and political (as both titles suggest).

Dollhouse
9:01 pm/ET Fox
Is this it? After a rocky early going, the Joss Whedon series hit its stride mid-season — storywise, that is. Ratings, unfortunately, are another story, which may make tonight's first-season finale the finale, period. The episode continues Alpha's Echo obsession, wraps up Ballard's Dollhouse search and finds an Active being permanently disabled — let's just hope the same isn't so for the show itself.

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles
8 pm/ET FOX
After a group hug and some chamomile tea, the Connors resolve their differences with Cameron and Derek, and the four set off for the Bahamas for some quality downtime. Just kidding — Sarah ditches the wisdom of "united we stand, divided we fall" and takes John to see old pal Charley Dixon while keeping Derek and Cameron out of the loop. Unfortunately, trust issues with John's uncle and the lady terminator are the least of Sarah's problems.

Monk
9 pm/ET USA
The seventh season wraps up tonight with a case that has special significance to Monk. He's investigating the disappearance of a city official who was lobbying to preserve a parking garage. But what's so personal about that? Well, it's the garage where Monk's wife was killed by a car bomb that he believes was intended for him. The series is scheduled to return for its eighth and final season this summer.
