FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 2008

Monk: (USA, 9 PM) He’s faking it. His own death, that is. In tonight’s season 6 finale Monk stages his own death after being framed for a murder he didn’t commit. Back home Natalie prepares an elaborate memorial service for the deceased Monk, while the very-much-alive Monk shifts career gears by taking a job at a car wash.

Amne$ia: (NBC, 9 PM) Stream of consciousness comedian Dennis Miller is at the helm of this brand new game show where contestants are pushed to the limits of their own memories when forced to answer trivia questions about themselves.

The Price Is Right
: (CBS, 8 PM) For the first time ever, The Price Is Right is coming to primetime with a six-week run. Each episode will feature an opportunity for one unknowing contestant to take home one million dollars, just by winning a game. A million bucks for a round of Plinko? Times have changed!

BET Honors: (BET, 8 PM) Praise is given where praise is due in tonight’s first annual Cedric the Entertainer-hosted special which honors the achievements of African Americans in the arts, business, and education. Highlights include performances by soulful singers Stevie Wonder, Brian McKnight, Gladys Knight, Jill Scott, and John Legend.

In Treatment: (HBO, 9:30 PM) Paul’s in a chipper mood this week with Gina, that is until a past incident between them is revisited and reveals the whole source of his hostility towards her. Laura - the other major bone of contention between them - is also discussed, and this time he discloses some unexpected feelings.
