- Alternately, Lifetime continues their week long premiere for Rita Rocks with another new episode. Or, if you want to know more about Thirteen’s personal life, and her lesbian love life, tune into FOX for a new House. Whats Lizzie going to do on a new Lincoln Heights on ABC Family? Will it be Johnny or Devin? BBC America’s Gavin & Stacey worries about a whole different kind of who when Smithy learns who the father of Nessa’s baby is.
- Over on CBS, Gibbs comes face to face with Agent Fornell while tracking a marine’s murderer on NCIS.

8:00p/7:00 Central
- The ALCS Game 4 gets under way on TBS with Tampa Bay now on a roll and in control, up two games to one. But if baseball’s not your thing, maybe you’d rather watch the contestants of NBC’s The Biggest Loser face the longest challenge in show history, from sunup to sundown. For other competition fare, ABC’s Opportunity Knocks visits “The Long Island Brady Bunch,” a brood with nine children.
- Scripted options include a new Lincoln Heights on ABC Family wherein the family reels after a shooting. You can follow that up with BBC America’s Gavin & Stacey at 8:40p/7:40 Central in which the couple returns from their honeymoon and Nessa’s secret is finally revealed. Yeah, I said this was on last week, but BBC America bumped the schedule a week so it’s on tonight instead.
- Gibbs learns more about his past on CBS’s NCIS as a murder case leads to the town he grew up in. Ralph Waite guests as his father. Meanwhile, over on FOX’s House, the titular doctor’s father dies and as he reluctantly goes to the funeral we learn how he and Wilson first met. Oh, and someone almost dies and is saved at the last second.

The CW
8:00p/7:00 Central
- With baseball over until Thursday, all the sports fans will be tuning into ABC’s Dancing With the Stars to see the Rockettes, Jennifer Hudson and Kool and the Gang. Yes, you heard me right: Kool and the Gang! Or maybe some of them could sign up for NBC’s The Biggest Loser. I know it’s hard to believe, but there are a few overweight sports fans.
- With the election a month away, is it any wonder that politics are coming front and center in your favorite shows? On NCIS a prominent senator turns to Gibbs for help after a naval officer is murdered.
- Annie and Ethan hook up for that classic school project where they take care of a baby on The CW’s 90210. Awww! Oh, and Jennie Garth heads off for sunnier pastures.
- For comedy, you have Lincoln Heights on ABC Family, and still have ten minutes to flip over to BBC America at 8:40p/7:40 Central for the second series premiere of Gavin & Stacey with the titular couple returning from their honeymoon.
- Or watch MyNetwork TV’s Street Patrol hitting up LA, Albequerque and Palm Beach tonight.
