NGTV Guide: Wednesday, November 19

Wednesdays are considerably lighter around here, now but we do have 2 awesome shows to watch tonight. Alas, they are on at the same time. Would you do us a favor and watch Pushing Daisies live instead of Bones? The Pie Holers need all the ratings help they can get!

Pushing Daisies – ABC 8/7c
“Oh Oh Oh … It’s Magic” – Ned reluctantly agrees to help “The Great Herrmann” (guest star Fred Willard), a famed magician whose animal assistants are being mysteriously killed off. The magician has been a surrogate dad to Ned’s half-brothers Maurice and Ralston (Alex Miller, Graham Miller) ever since their father walked out on them. Meanwhile, Dwight Dixon (guest star Stephen Root) insinuates himself into the Aunts’ lives, but Lily is instantly suspicious of his motives.

Bones – Fox 8/7c
“The Passenger in the Oven” – Booth and Brennan are en route to China to identify pre-historic anthropological remains, when a flight attendant (guest star Amy Farrington) discovers a fully cooked human body in the plane’s industrial microwave. They must solve the murder in the air before the plane lands and they lose their jurisdiction over the case. Meanwhile, back in the states, Angela and Roxie’s relationship progresses as Hodgins (TJ Thyne) tries to move on. (photos)
