It's about 4:00PM, and I'm watching Erica and Adam laugh over beers at a pub in Ireland.

Well, OK. Toronto is actually filling in for Ireland, and I'm watching Erin Karpluk and Adam Fergus film a scene for Season 4 of 'Being Erica.' Yes, all you Adam haters. He's back in Season 4, and happier than ever. And Adam Fergus, the affable actor who plays the handsome Irishman, hopes that those of you who didn't take to him at first have come around. "He challenges her, it's hard for audiences to get over that," he says.



There's still hope, though. Fergus says his Twitter mentions got friendlier and friendlier as Season 3 progressed. If he has his way, by the end of Season 4 everyone will be firmly aboard Team Adam. He's certainly got his work cut out for him. "People have very strong opinions about who they like for Erica," observes Karpluk, adding that people still ask her about Kai (Sebastian Pigott).

There are so many channels on television today that you may not have noticed a wonderful little hour drama on SOAPNet called 'Being Erica.' If you like 'Drop Dead Diva.' If you go for the characters on 'Glee.' If you care about stories for women but don't go for the Lifetime TV movies. If you can appreciate the differences between American TV and Canadian TV, 'Being Erica' is for you.

Starring Erin Karpluk as Erica Strange, a 32-year-old literary editor and wannabe writer, she's a mass of complications in the tradition of all romantic comedy heroines. But 'Being Erica' has a fun, mystical twist to the standard situations we've seen on other shows before.

'In the Motherhood'
(8PM, ABC) series premiere
Fake pregnancies, 'mannies' and staycations ... all just part of a day in the life of 'In the Motherhood,' an adaptation of the Internet comedy about three friends with radically different styles of parenting.

Rosemary (Megan Mullally) is the most free-spirited of the bunch, which makes it all the more surprising that her teenage son Syd is a responsible kid.

Her newly-divorced pal Jane (Cheryl Hines) struggles with her caring, but quirky manny Horatio (Horatio Sanz), while Jane's uptight sis Emily is finding out that, despite all her efforts to build the perfect life with the perfect husband in the perfect home, her children are not at all perfect.

'Burn Notice'
(10PM, USA) 2nd season finale
Gabrielle Anwar, who plays Fiona, burned agent Michael's ex-girlfriend Fiona, has called the revelations in the sophomore season finale "shocking."

Meaning, even the seemingly unflappable Michael will be reeling when he finds out the truth about Carla and Victor, Michael's would-be assassin.

Michael and Fiona are also dealing with his admission last week that he dumped his former fiancée Samantha because he loved Fiona more, but the real action comes when Victor's past is revealed and the new info leads Michael to square off against the mysterious Carla once and for all.

'My Name Is Earl'
(8PM, NBC)
It's been fun and all – seeing Joy trying to fit in with her 'Knots Landing'-ish cul-de-sac neighbors was a hoot – but tonight's 'Earl' may finally bring an end to Joy and Darnell, aka Crab Man's, Witness Protection Program jaunt, and it's all because of a visit from Darnell's long-lost papa.

Danny Glover plays the senior Crab Man, who pops up in Camden to make amends with his boy. But Earl and Randy (well, Earl, anyway) suspect he has other motives, and when they set off to find and warn Darnell, it leads to a father/son undercover mission and, hopefully, a return to the trailer park for Joy and her fam.
