As there have been a lot of new visitors popping up here at Televisionary lately, I thought I'd take the opportunity this Labor Day to take a look back at some recent posts that may have given you a reason to take a break (or sneak one) from work. (Not that I'm advocating that or anything, mind you.)Hopefully, you're off from work today, with the family, having a lazy old day of it. But if you happen to be stuck inside, below are a few Televisionary moments to keep you entertained...

What I'll Be Watching
10 pm: Life on Mars on BBC America.
It's the penultimate episode of this brilliant (and British) mind-bending mystery series that stars State of Play's John Simm as Detective Sam Tyler, a modern-day copper who wakes up in 1973. On tonight's episode, Sam investigates the suspicious death of a drug dealer who happened to die in police custody. Uh-oh, Sam. Not sure you can trust the Gene Genie on this one...
10 pm: Weeds on Showtime.
Season Two of Showtime's suburban-set pot dramedy is in full swing. On tonight's episode ("A.K.A. The Plant"), Celia is horrified when Isabelle is approached to become a plus-sized children's model, Andy takes young Shane to a massage parlor for a happy ending, and Nancy's new grow business is ready to take off.
11 pm: Lovespring International on Lifetime.
The improvised comedy returns with a brand new episode tonight. On tonight's installment, a Lovespring client (guest star Tim Meadows) spends his time, um, donating sperm rather than, you know, dating.
