The Futon Critic has informed us of what's in store for us on FOX in November.  I heard it's a Grand Slam of shows coming next month.  View the whole press release here.  Some of the highlights on Monday nights are as follows:



Monday, Nov. 8

HOUSE (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) - "Office Politics"

Amber Tamblyn joins HOUSE for a multi-episode arc as Martha Masters, a brilliant but inexperienced third-year medical student whom Cuddy forces House to hire as a female team member in Thirteen's absence. In the midst of a tight senatorial re-election race, the New Jersey incumbent's campaign manager (guest star Jack Coleman) mysteriously falls ill with liver failure and temporary paralysis. After a surprising campaign announcement is made by the incumbent (guest star Pat Finn), House and the team look to the candidate to find clues about the patient's condition. Meanwhile, Foreman (Omar Epps) learns that Taub (Peter Jacobson) has a past connection to Masters, and in an effort to save his patient's life, House must make a critical decision that may compromise his relationship with Cuddy.

LIE TO ME (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) - "The Canary's Song"

When Lightman investigates a coal mine explosion that killed six miners, he suspects that foul play may have been involved. To find the truth, he puts his life at risk and descends below the surface. Meanwhile, the FBI comes back to The Lightman Group looking for help with another case, and Foster and Torres offer to work pro bono.

Monday, Nov. 15

HOUSE (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) - "A Pox on Our House"

After a 200-year-old medicine jar found on an off-shore shipwreck shatters in a teenage girl's palm, she is admitted to Princeton Plainsboro for symptoms closely linked to smallpox. When the Center for Disease Control's Dr. Dave Broda (guest star Dylan Baker) institutes a lockdown on the hospital and suspends House's team's ability to diagnose, Masters (guest star Tamblyn) grows suspicious of Broda's motives and becomes convinced that the patient is suffering from a different disease. The girl's father soon experiences similar symptoms, and House is forced to make a precarious decision that puts his own life in jeopardy. Meanwhile, Wilson (Robert Sean Leonard) and Sam (guest star Cynthia Watros) comfort a 6-year-old chemotherapy patient (guest star Devon Woods) who prompts them to examine their relationship.

LIE TO ME (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) - "Beyond Belief"

Lightman goes head-to-head with the leader of a self-help empire (guest star David Sutcliffe) to free a wealthy woman (guest star Julia Campbell) who may be under the control of the cult-like leader. When Lightman begins to investigate, things get personal as he suspects the group of threatening him and his daughter, Emily (Hayley McFarland).

Monday, Nov. 22

HOUSE (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) - "Small Sacrifices"

Science and faith are called into question when a patient (guest star Kuno Becker) is admitted to the hospital following his reenactment of the Crucifixion. Meanwhile, Taub questions his wife, Rachel (guest star Jennifer Crystal Foley), about her relationship with an infidelity support group member, and the team attends a co-worker's wedding where Wilson's relationship with Sam (guest star Watros) takes an unexpected turn.

LIE TO ME (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) - "Smoked"

The terminally ill owner of a successful chain of restaurants (guest star John Amos) hires Lightman to fulfill his dying wish: to track down his daughter's killer. In the process, Lightman uncovers the twisted dynamic of the fractured family empire, leading him to suspect sibling rivalry as the motive and that the patriarch's sons might be somehow responsible for the death of their sister, who was first in line to run the family business.
