ROLLING STONEPosted Nov 21, 2006 2:42 PM

SATURDAY>

12 AM: Scrubs (WGN) w/ Colin Hay
It's not often that Scrubs has a musical guest. It's even less often that Men At Work's Colin Hay still gets credit for being musical.

12:30 AM: Ghostbusters II (TV Land)
Okay, so it ain't the original. But don't slime this one: Remember Vigo, the baby sacrifice,the underground river of slime? Good times, good times.

3:35 AM: Conan O'Brien (NBC)
Conan O'Brien is miles better than Jon Stewart, in terms of sheer height. Even in repeats.

4:30 AM: Holidays at the Walt Disney Resort (FOOD)
It was either this or an infomercial about an innovative new knife sharpener. We flipped a coin.

5 AM: Fresh: New Music (VH1)
Come on, shake yourself awake with a slice of fresh music. Don't crap out on our marathon now . . . grab a coffee and let's go.

6 AM: CNN Presents
Catch the breaking news when the day is breaking, too.

7:15 AM: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (HBO)
Them plucky little kids got spunk -- the kind of spunk that brings evildoers to their knees. Oh, they also have magical powers . . . that probably helps, too.

10 AM: Felicity (WE)
Oh Felicity, how we loved you and your long curly hair and your quest for love . . . we'll never forget you. Until 11:A.M.

11 AM: Bring It On (USA)
A pre-Spiderman Kirsten Dunst leads this cheerleader vs. cheerleader showdown, with football player squads cheering from the sidelines.

1 PM: LL Cool J (A&E)
Do you know L.L. Cool J. stands for Ladies Love Cool James? Of course you do. But if that's about all you know, check out this worthy profile.

2 PM: The Breakfast Club (Comedy Central)
A jock, a nerd, a misfit, etc. meet in this Brat Pack classic. Good for some giggles.

4 PM: Family Feud (Game Show Network)
In case you need to be reminded, this holiday season, of the existence of families more annoying/awful/disturbingly cheery than your own.

4:30 PM: Airline (A&E)
If there's not enough chaos in your running-for-the-gate, lose-the-clippers airport experience, try this reality show about Southwest Airlines. The bus station never looked so appealing.

5 PM: Bond Movie Marathon: For Your Eyes Only (Spike TV)
Bond at its cold-war best: 007 has to beat the Russians to a kidnapped encryption device that could let bad guys launch our nukes. Not for Roger Moore haters, though.

8 PM: Law & Order: SVU (USA)
Play the Law & Order Another Round drinking game! Drink every time you see a black screen with white letters; group chug if you can figure out the ending less than halfway into the show.

9 PM: Austin City Limits with Franz Ferdinand and What Made Milwaukee Famous (PBS)
Get your indie rock fix from the small city with the big scene.

10 PM: Star Wars Empire of Dreams (Behind the Scenes of the Movies) (A&E)
A geeky paradise of Star Wars trivia never before circulated, except on the Web. And nobody ever looks there.
