TNA: iMPACT! -- 9:00pm ET/PT on Spike TV. iMPACT! delivers a distinct brand of high-risk athletic entertainment.

Grey's Anatomy: "Kung Fu Fighting" -- 9:00pm ET/PT on ABC.

OMG! Grey's Anatomy was incredible last Thursday, definitely the best episode this season and it's going to be hard to top it. Callie announced right off the bat that Izzie slept with George, which held sway throughout the episode. Christina was so mean to her, too, which was upsetting, because we love Christina, but that's definitely going to go somewhere. It's setting up what should be a very interesting rivalry between the two girls. And we really loved Lexi's shared story with Meredith, because it shows us the two sisters do have common ground and we'd love to see them get very close. As for Alex and Ava, that story has a lot of developing to do, so we're going to wait it out before we make judgments on that. Overall, it was a very satisfying hour.
