NGTV Guide: Monday, December 8

We’re approaching winter hiatus, which means fewer new episodes to watch but more time to catch up on what we might have missed this fall. Fortunately we do have one more full night of Monday night goodness before the drought begins!

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles – FOX 8/7c
FALL FINALE
“Alpine Fields” – Sarah and Cameron work to save a family on the list with a connection to Derek in the future. Meanwhile Jesse’s life hangs in the balance.

Gossip Girl – the CW 8/7c
“O Brother, Where Bart Thou?” – A sudden and tragic event impacts the lives of our favorite Upper East Side teens and their parents.

Chuck – NBC 8/7c
“Chuck vs. the Delorean” – Chuck (Zachary Levi) spies on Sarah (Yvonne Strahovski) and sees her on a date with an older man (guest star Gary Cole). Chuck frantically tries to warn Sarah after he has an Intersect flash, but she assures Chuck that she is not in danger and reveals the identity of the mystery man. Meanwhile, Anna (Julia Ling) wants to move into an apartment with Morgan (Joshua Gomez) forcing him to finally act like an adult. Awesome (Ryan McPartlin) offers to help Morgan pay for the apartment, but a relic from the past causes Morgan to lose focus on his new grown-up responsibilities.

Privileged – the CW 9/8c
SPECIAL NIGHT
“All About the Ripple Effect” – Just as she is getting used to having a relationship with her father, Arthur (guest star John Allan Nelson), Megan (JoAnna Garcia) is thrown for a loop by the return of her mother, Shelby (guest star Lawrence), who abandoned the family when Megan was a child. Megan finds it hard to control her anger toward Shelby, but Arthur makes it clear that he wants Megan to forgive the mistakes made by both her parents in the past. To make matters worse, Megan learns that her sister Lily (Kristina Apgar, who does not appear in the episode) impulsively ran off and got married to a man Megan can’t stand. Will (Brian Hallisay) finds it hard to understand Megan’s complicated family issues, and is jealous that Megan seems to prefer discussing her problems with Charlie (Michael Cassidy). Meanwhile, Sage (Ashley Newbrough) denies that she is attracted to Luis (guest star Ignacio Serricchio), so Rose (Lucy Kate Hale) and Marco (Allan Louis) come up with a scheme to make Sage admit her true feelings. Sage turns the tables on Rose by setting up a date for her with Zachary (guest star David Franco, “Greek”), a boy Rose already likes.

My Own Worst Enemy – NBC 10/9c
“Love In All the Wrong Places” – Edward (Christian Slater) and Raymond (Mike O’Malley) discover long lost American hostages while on a mission in Angola. Mavis (Alfre Woodard) and Alistair Trumbull (guest star James Cromwell, “Six Feet Under “) disagree over what resources should be used in the ensuing rescue mission. Meanwhile, Dr. Norah Skinner (Saffron Burrows) is confronted over her relationship with Edward (Slater).
