What with Passover (which starts Monday) and Good Friday, there are a few repeats this week, especially on Friday, but all in all, lots of new stuff. But before you check out this week’s guest list (highlights: Raquel Welch on Oprah, Sam “Clash of the Titans” Worthington everywhere), let’s look ahead shall we?
Mythbusters’ Grant Imahara has one more week and a bit before his self-appointed deadline to create a sidekick for Late Late Show’s Craig Ferguson (it’s a robot skeleton sidekick, watch the video). The unveiling will, according to the video, come Monday April 5 (or April 6?, acc to some Twitter patter?; Grant confirmed Friday, April 2 that he’ll be on the show Monday, April 5 to unveil the new sidekick, “Geoff”):
