Here's an article about the biggest matchups on the schedule:

Thursdays at 8 p.m.
"Survivor" vs. "The Moment of Truth"

Mondays at 8 p.m.
"Gossip Girl" vs. "Chuck"

Tuesdays at 9 p.m.
"Scrubs" vs. "The Biggest Loser: Couples"

Thursdays at 10 p.m.

"Life on Mars" vs. "Eleventh Hour"
I don't see Chuck vs Gossip Girl as much of anything - they've both got their audiences, why even assume they're overlapping?

Monday 9pm - Heroes has a clear shot & will crush doddering Prison Break. It gets more interesting midseason when Heroes goes up against 24.
