With regular shows re-airing in a matter of weeks, the mass of mid-season replacement shows has slowed down to almost nothing. One of the last replacements to air is the comedy "Miss Guided" on ABC on Thursdays, running in back-to-back 30-minute episodes starting at 8 p.m. The show stars Judy Greer, an underrated comedic actress who has appeared in television shows such as "Arrested Development."
