Thursday 13 “The Vampire Diaries” (KWBQ-19 7 p.m.) The first season of The CW’s sexy young vamp series comes to an end with Alaric and Damon trying to stop Johnathan from unleashing destruction, chaos and death.

Friday 14 “Smallville” (KWBQ-19 7 p.m.) The ninth season of The CW’s sexy young superhero show comes to an end with Chloe and Clark battling Zod and his evil minions.

Sunday 16 “2010 Miss USA Pageant” (KOB-4 6 p.m.) Contestants vie for the crown in the 59 th annual pageant. Curtis Stone hosts.

Tuesday 18 “V” (KOAT-7 9:01 p.m.) In case you hadn’t figured it out, it’s all about season finales this week. Here, ABC’s clinging-to-life sci fi bids adieu for the summer. It ends with Val giving birth, which means after an entire (albeit truncated) season, we might actually get to see a damn alien. “Future Food” (Planet Green 8 p.m.) Apparently, in the future, high-tech packaging will be edible. … Hey, the bag can’t taste any worse than the Bugles inside. Wednesday 19 “The Good Guys” (KASA-2 7 p.m.) FOX’s wacky new mismatched cop comedy gets a sneak preview tonight. “Accidental Fortune” (TLC 8 p.m.) Ordinary people stumble across fortunes at yard sales, in garages, at thrift stores.
