TV: Thursday Hot List

Jul. 17 2009, Published 2:17 p.m. ET

It's gonna be weird when actual, scripted shows like The Office are back with new episodes (and the arrival of Jim and Pam's baby!) next week instead of the Olympics. But, in the meantime, you still have a few more days to enjoy the games. Tonight, it's all about women's figure skating, freestyle skiing and Nordic combined. All eyes will be on the women's free skate when American figure skating champion Rachel Flatt goes up against South-Korea gold medal favorite Kim Yu-Na. Needless to say, we can't wait to cheer on Team USA for the gold!

But, if you're looking for a different kind of rivalry, then tune into the Real Housewives of Orange County. Last week, the ladies all turned on poor Vicki during their getaway in San Francisco. They really let her know that they do not appreciate it when Vicky reminds them that she's the only one with a career. So, who does Vicki turn to for comfort? Jenna-another housewife scorned by those catty, catty ladies (and as far as we knew, she and Vicki were currently estranged)! Meanwhile, Alexis and her mom bond during a trip to the nip/tuck doctor, Lynne decides what to do about her failing marriage and Gretchen launches her make-up line.
