Today

Decision 2008 Senate Debate

* 7 p.m., 9 News

The show: Forget all those phone calls the television ads insist that you make: U.S. Senate candidates Mark Udall, the Democrat, and Bob Schaffer, the Republican (known in small-screen circles as the "Boulder Liberal" and "Big Oil Bob," respectively) will go head-to-head to discuss the issues for a Colorado TV audience. Unless it's like their recent encounter on a Sunday news show, we might learn something about them.

Tuesday

Presidential Debate

* 7 p.m., CBS4, KRMA-Channel 6, Denver's 7, 9News, Fox 31, CNN

The show: Here they go again. Republican Sen. John McCain and Democratic Sen. Barack Obama pick up where their vice presidential candidates left off last week, presumably without the winks and "you betchas." When it's over at 9, KRMA-Channel 6 offers a documentary on dinosaurs that roamed Alaska. Coincidence?

Wednesday

Bones

* 7 p.m., Fox 31

The show: Brennan (David Boreanaz) and Booth (Emily Deschanel) alight in a small religious enclave on the Chesapeake Bay after the remains of the community's pastor are discovered.

Thursday

Kath & Kim

* 7:30 p.m., 9News

The show: Molly Shannon and Selma Blair star as a dysfunctional mother-daughter duo, both loud and pushy, and their adventures in middle-class suburbia. In the premiere, daughter Kim moves in with Kath.

Saturday

Chuck

* 8 p.m., 9News

The show: (Pre-empted Tuesday by the presidential debates) Chuck (Zachary Levi) goes undercover to pluck an important device from toxic spy the Black Widow (Melinda Clarke). But to penetrate her web, he must first learn the fine art of seduction from suave superspy Roan Montgomery (John Larroquette), whose best days are probably behind him.

Sunday

Avalanche vs. Oilers

* 6 p.m., Altitude

The show: The leaves are golden and falling, the temperatures have dropped into the 70s -- it must be hockey season! The Avalanche laces up the skates and takes on the Edmonton Oilers.
