Comedy Central's "Reno 911!" is a Wednesday TV pick

"Reno 911!"

The unhinged officers of the Reno Sherrif's Department are back for a sixth season. This hilarious semi-improvised comedy has more than once caused me to hit rewind on my DVR thinking "did they just do that on TV?" My favorite leaders of this crazy patrol are Lieutenant Dangle (Tom Lennon) and Depts. Trudy Wiegel and S. Jones (Kerri Kenney-Silver and Cedric Yarbrough). 10:30 tonight, Comedy Central.

"Damages"

I have no idea what lies in store for litigator Patty Hewes (Glenn Close) and her protégé, Ellen Parsons (Rose Byrne) in tonight's 90-minute Season 2 finale. I just know I will be glued to the TV to see who will (and won't survive). 10 tonight, FX (seattletimes.com/tvlistings).
