Friends at 7pm
From the award-winning creators of Dream On comes your all time favourite classics Friends, a smart, sophisticated comedy that looks into the hearts and minds of a group of friends, all in their twenties, living in New York. It's a show about love and sex and careers and a time in life when everything is possible. It's about searching for commitment and security. . . and a fear of commitment and security. And most of all, it's a show about friendship - for when you're young and single in the city, your friends are your family.
The Big Bang Theory at 8pm
The Big Bang Theory tells the story of two brainy best friends who could tell you anything you want to know about quantum physics - but when it comes to dealing with everyday life here on Earth, they're lost in the cosmos. Leonard (Johnny Galecki) and Sheldon (Jim Parsons) are brilliant physicists, the kind of "beautiful minds" that understand how the universe works. But none of that genius helps them interact with people, especially women. All this begins to change when a free-spirited beauty named Penny (Kaley Cuoco) moves in next door. Sheldon, Leonard's roommate, is quite content spending his nights playing Klingon Boggle with their socially dysfunctional friends, fellow Caltech scientists Wolowitz (Simon Helberg) and Koothrappali (Kunal Nayyar). However, Leonard sees in Penny a whole new universe of possibilities... including love.
Two and a Half Men at 8:30pm
Charlie Sheen and Jon Cryer star in the Emmy Award-nominated Two and a Half Men, a comedy about men, women, sex, dating, divorce, mothers, single parenthood, sibling relations, surrogate families, money and, most importantly, love.
Charlie Harper (Charlie Sheen) is a well-to-do bachelor with a house at the beach, a Jaguar in the garage and an easy way with women. His casual Malibu lifestyle is interrupted when his tightly wound brother, Alan (Jon Cryer), who is facing a divorce, and Alan's 10-year-old son, Jake (Angus T. Jones), come to stay with him. Despite their strained relationship, Charlie and Alan have one thing in common: They both love Jake and want what's best for him. The brothers agree to create a home for Jake at Charlie's, and together these two and a half men face the challenges of growing up.
The brand new Season 8 of Two and a Half Men will premiere on 25 January (Wednesday) at 9pm on WarnerTV (nowTV; Channel 530), and don't miss the new episodes on every Wednesday at the same time.
