Hitchcock presents

"Castle" (9:01 p.m., KSTP, Ch. 5) pays homage to "Rear Window" when Richard (Nathan Fillion) gets holed up in bed and thinks he's witnessed a murder in the apartment building across the street. Next week: Richard starts introducing everyone to an invisible giant rabbit.

Georgia on his mind

"Conan" (10 p.m., TBS) hits the road for a week of shows in Atlanta featuring such guests as Seth Rogen, Paul Rudd, Charles Barkley and Darius Rucker. Extra points to President Jimmy Carter if he can get Conan O'Brien to teach him the String Dance.
