The Late Show With David Letterman (talk show, CBS, 11:35 p.m.). One of the wonderful things television does is capture forever moments that will go down in history. One of those moments occurred in the summer of 1994 when Madonna appeared on The Late Show and made a colossal ass of herself. From the moment she put her heart-shaped bottom in the guest's chair, Madonna began cussin' up a blue streak, reciting expletive after glorious expletive, eventually going as far as to shove her panties in Dave's blushing face. Though intended as one of her trademark "media events" from which she would emerge more popular than ever, this one didn't go exactly as planned. Rather than finding her filthy mouth cute or disarming, the audience turned on Madonna like a pack of hungry wolves. With tonight's rerun, you can witness for yourself what was possibly the first time since her meteoric rise to fame that Madonna fell flat on her face.
Not Interested? Then How About:
The X-Files (drama, Fox, 9:00 p.m.). Ancient Chinese spirits are going around
cremating people, which ends up ruining Scully and Mulder 's appetite for Chinese food forever.
