Another terrific season of “Justified” (FX, 10 p.m.) comes to a close with the expected showdown with the drug overlord played by Neal McDonough and U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens (played by Timothy Olyphant, left). What’s unexpected are the twists and turncoats, with surprises at every curve.
Last time “Glee” (Fox, 8 p.m.) was on, Quinn was broadsided while texting, en route to Rachel and Finn’s wedding. And you may have vowed to never watch again. Enough time has passed since the pre-Christmas episode to approach once more as the show returns. And the episode is mostly about Blaine’s brother, a Hollywood actor who comes to visit.
Women who are most disagreeable when planning their weddings warrant a single episode of “Bridezillas” (We,TV 9 p.m.) and that’s it. But because Shannen Doherty was disagreeable on “90210” and any number of worse follow-up projects, somehow she ends up having a whole series about it. “Shannen Says” (WeTV, 10 p.m.) gets a whole season, putting her fiancé to the test at every turn. Tonight, she gets to play a lot of tennis but he’s guilted for going out to play some Sunday morning football. I’ll be surprised if he’s still around by the end of this unnecessary series.
“Deadliest Catch” (Discovery, 9 p.m.) returns for a new season, its eighth, finding that times are tough and weather is tougher.
Kiss returns to “Dancing with the Stars” (ABC, 9 p.m.), to play — they can’t dance in those platform shoes. But the question is whether a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame be voted off during rock week?
One of the “Dancing” judges gets extra exposure on the special “The Titanic with Len Goodman” (PBS, 8 p.m., check local listings). Come on, he’s not that old. But he did work as a welder for the company that built the ship. He talks to descendants of the fated ship’s passengers. It’s accompanied by the recreation “Saving the Titanic” (PBS, 9 p.m., check local listings).
Feeling better about boats 100 years later (but not necessarily about romance), the new series “Love for Sail” (Lifetime, 10 p.m.) follows women looking for love on a Norweigan Cruise Line ship. Any resemblance to the old syndicated “Shipmates” with Chris Hardwick is strictly coincidental.
A complicated series of eliminations and saves for the teams of Cee-Lo Green and Adam Levine mark the results show for “The Voice” (NBC, 9 p.m.). Four go home (and it’s not the judges).
Michelle Obama is still hanging around on “The Biggest Loser” (NBC, 8 p.m.) and the ghost of William Howard Taft is inspired to take part.
On the new series “Big Easy Justice” (Spike, 10 p.m.), tough bail bondsmen in New Orleans are followed. Unlike Dog the Bounty Hunter: no mullets.
Anthony Bourdain is guest programmer tonight on Turner Classic Movies. None of his choices have to do particularly with food or travel: “The Searchers” (8 p.m.), “Eyes Without a Face” (10:15 p.m.), “Get Carter” (midnight) and “Withnail & I” (2 a.m.).
NBA action includes Celtics at Heat (ESPN, 7 p.m.) and Knicks at Bulls (ESPN, 9:30 p.m.).
