Wednesday TV: Top Chef Reunion, CSI NY, Nip/Tuck, So You Think You Can Dance

Tonight there are a few good shows scattered across the TV spectrum. We are in sort of a TV doldrums period due to it being the Christmas season, which makes for a lot of Christmas specials, if that's your thing. Like tonight, on CBS at 8/7c, you can watch and hear Christmas with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. When I first read that I thought to myself that I did not realize Mormons did Christmas. Then I remembered the part of the Mormon story that has Jesus coming to America after he was finished in the Middle East.

Also on tonight...

Top Chef: Las Vegas
9/8c Bravo
The motley crew of chefs you see in the photo above gets together again for a reunion hosted by Bravo's host for these type shows, Andy Cohen. Padma Lakshmi, Gale Simmons, Toby Young and Tom Colicchio will also be there. The Top Chef reunion shows are usually very entertaining. We'll also learn who fan favorite is. I'm guessing Kevin.

CSI: NY
10/9c CBS
A Christmas themed CSI:NY with a murder, of course. This time it is the murder of a former drug addict who had his life back on track. Kim Kardashian guest stars. And the dead guy is played by Train singer Pat Monahan in his first attempt at acting.

So You Think You Can Dance
8/7c Fox
We are now in the 4th month of this show. I've not watched a whole lot of it. But, tonight is the finale of Season 6. Adam Lambert will be singing. Which is a bit of a surprise after his American Music Awards debacle.

Nip/Tuck
10/9c FX
Tonight is the season finale with this episode's plastic surgery being the removal of fat from an obese death row inmate so that his execution can be carried out.

Katie Holmes Highlights So You Think You Can Dance 100th Episode

Being the wife of Tom Cruise is not just the best thing Katie Holmes can do. In the 100th episode of So You Think You Can Dance (SYTYCD) slated on July 23, Katie Holmes agreed to show her dance moves, sing and show a lot of her legs for charity! In fact, she will be a doing a song and dance tribute to a Hollywood icon Judy Garland. Although she's no beginner to this stuff as she appeared on Broadway for Arthur Miller’s All My Sons, Katie is seemingly bent to do her best as she keeps on rehearsing her much-awaited number in SYTYCD until 11:30 PM - with just small breaks to be with her daughter Suri who's 3 years old. Since middle of May, pictures of Katie Holmes clad in dancing clothes has been appearing all over.

Katie's SYTYCD number was filmed by cinematographer Dion Beebe and directed/choreographed by her friend, Tyce Diorio, who's also a SYTYCD judge. The dance number is also inspired by Judy Garland’s song “Get Happy” from the 1950s musical Summer Stock. SYTYCD executive producer Nigel Lythgoe revealed to PEOPLE that Katie Holmes is donning “the jacket, the little hat... It’s just an iconic look. And Katie Holmes has got the legs. Wow!” Come July 23 and we'll all be seeing this spectacle on our TV screens. Let's hope it's worth all the drumbeating going on!
