'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.
