To Watch Tonight…How About Two Mules?

Incredible Dog Challenge (ESPN2, 7 p.m.): I have no idea what this means or what these dogs will do that’s so “incredible.” Then again, the mystery of it all is kind of exciting, isn’t it?
NBA Finals Game 4, Los Angeles at Orlando (ABC, 9 p.m.): This is the game where we see if this is going to be a real series or not. Orlando played perhaps its best game of the postseason in Game 3, shooting an absurd percentage to get its first NBA Finals win. The question: Can Orlando do it again, or perhaps defend better and win again. No predictions here, but if Orlando has shown us anything in the playoffs its that it wins when it needs to.
PGA Tour, St. Jude Classic (Golf Channel, 10 p.m.): Once again, it’s always good to catch up on the golf you missed at work (sucker!) when TGC replays it during the late-night slot. Three hours of coverage. Hey, it at least gives you something to flip to during breaks of the Mag-Lakers game.
Two Mules for Sister Sara (AMC, 10:30 p.m.): AMC is quickly becoming a staple in this spot. So is Clint Eastwood. In this 1970 western Eastwood plays a good guy named Hogan that helps a nun named Sara (played by Shirley MacLaine) as some Frenchies chase after her. What Hogan doesn’t know is why they’re really after Sara. Oh, the intrigue!
River Monsters, Piranha (Discovery Channel, midnight): Had to get this one in. Some dude that calls himself an “extreme angler,” whatever that means, will go into the Amazon to investigate piranha. The show will also recount a 1976 boating accident that left 39 people dead in the Amazon. When the bodies were pulled out it was clear some piranha had gotten after them. Yikes.
