'Nurse Jackie': Jackie Checks Herself Out Of Rehab, Nearly Suffers Relapse
Apparently, three episodes in rehab is about all Jackie can stand. In this week's "Nurse Jackie" (Sun., 9 p.m. ET on Showtime), she was just shy of halfway through her treatment and she voluntarily checked herself out. All this over seeing her rebellious daughter wearing eyeliner.
But that didn't mean it was smooth sailing. Her counselor in rehab told her it was going to be difficult, and she was right. Jackie had an emotional breakdown in the hallway and ran off with no idea what was happening to her or why. To make matters worse, one of the nurses hooked her up with some fentanyl patches -- which had given her quite the high in the past.
After finding out Eddie had spilled the beans to her husband about their affair, Jackie had a moment of weakness and nearly succumbed to the temptation. Instead, she anonymously turned the nurse in, and then tipped him off that the cops were coming. It was an extreme measure, but perhaps what Jackie needed to affirm to herself that she was really going to move past her addiction this time.
Catch new episodes of "Nurse Jackie" every Sunday at 9 p.m. ET on Showtime.

Consider what is now reality -- television is an important way to expand your talents, extend your career and rid yourself of cubas (named for the epitome of the post-Oscar slump, Cuba Gooding, Jr.). With that in mind, here are 11 Oscar Winners Who Need a TV Show, STAT.
Looking at HBO's recent move -- the canceling of male-driven shows "Hung," "How to Make it in America," and "Bored to Death" and the renewal of the Laura Dern-fronted "Enlightened" -- it's become even more apparent: TV is now the land of women. And that's not a bad thing.
The difficulty of compiling a Top 10 Best TV Shows of the Year list points to the fact that people who complain there is nothing worth watching on television don't know what they are talking about.
