Puppy Bowl VII Tomorrow at 3 p.m., Animal Planet

Oh my goodness. Look how sweet. Aww — look at his snout, his little whiskers. He’s smiling. He is! Now he’s yawning. Kisses baby. Kisses. Oh that one is a little goose. Good sit. Good boy. Get the ball, boy. Get the ball. Run! Chase him. Chase! What? Some teeth! Foul! Oops. A poop. So dear. Wait — it’s the Kitty Halftime show. Yahoo! Chase that yarn, kitty, chase it. Now attack the yarn! Now chase. Now attack! Hey, look up. What is that? Why it’s the hamster-driven blimp. Complete cuteness bliss achieved.

Super Bowl XLV Tomorrow at 6:30 p.m., Channel 25

The halftime entertainers, the Black Eyed Peas, will be the first younger-skewing act to hold the spot of honor since 2004, the year of the Nipplegate incident. Since Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake’s performance that year, the halftime players have included Paul McCartney, the Rolling Stones, Prince, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, and the Who. I gotta feeling the Black Eyed Peas will go over the top.
