What's new and/or interesting on TV this week.

Barack ObamaThe Daily Show with Jon Stewart (Mon, 11PM-11:30PM, Comedy Central)
The night before the big Pennsylvania primary, Barack Obama will be appearing on The Daily Show. Maybe if you look close, you'll be able to see the beads of sweat on his brow...

Pennsylvania Primary Coverage (Tue, 7PM-12AM, CNN; Tue, 8PM-11PM, WHYY; Tue, 6PM-1AM, MSNBC; Tue, 8PM-12AM, Fox News)
The time has come! Pick your favorite news station and settle in for lots of talking heads, supposed "experts," pointless and erroneous predictions and other filler, and, of course, loads and loads of bullshit.

Nova (Tue, 8PM-9PM, WLVT)
The hosts of "Car Talk," Tom and Ray Magliozzi, head out to look for a new car to replace Tom's 1952 MG roadster and end up exploring the future of automobiles, including environmentally friendly technologies.

The Universe (Tue, 9PM-10PM, History Channel)
This time, we look at gravity. Included is a trip on the Vomit Comet!

MythBusters (Wed, 9PM-10PM, Discovery Channel)
As part of the Discovery Channel's general focus on Alaska this week, the MythBusters relocate there to discover if Adam and Jamie are susceptible to cabin fever, as well as to examine a myth about a moose and a car. Also, apparently "a truck, dynamite, and ice are combined," and that sounds like fun.

Celebracadabra (Sun, 9PM-10PM, VH1)
Celebrities try their hands at magic in a new reality show competition. Jonathan Levit hosts, and contestants include ANT, C. Thomas Howell, Chris "Kid" Reid, Hal Sparks, Lisa Ann Walter, Carnie Wilson, and Kim Wyatt.
