“Survivor” (CBS, 8 p.m.) returns to the brains vs. browns vs. beauty format, with a new set of people that includes a couple of familiar faces: “Beast Mode” Caleb from “Big Brother” and former NBA player Scot Pollard. There seems an overload of tattoos on a season billed as its most grueling yet. Still there is the unflappable Jeff Probst, who will again say “Come on in, guys.” It’s shot this time in Cambodia, on the beach of Noah Rong.
The great “Broad City” (Comedy Central, 10 p.m.) returns for a new season with Abbi and Ilana playing “two sangle girls doing their thing. . Because of the success of the season, a number of celebrities get involved too, which doesn’t always seem in character for these two down and out New York City characters.
If you can’t have a debate, the cable news networks figure, throw a town hall. In that format, candidates take questions from primary voters directly — and separately from their competition. CNN has planned two of them this week, splitting the remaining six Republican candidates into two nights. Tonight’s Republican Town Hall (CNN, 8 p.m.) has Ben Carson, Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio taking questions in Greenville, S.C. Thursday, Donald Trump, Jeb Bush and John Kasich take questions in Columbia, S.C. Anderson Cooper moderates both events. South Carolina’s Republican primary is Saturday.
To sneak viewers away, the rival MSNBC has scheduled a suspicious one-candidate Trump Town Hall (MSNBC, 8 p.m.) at the same time, also from South Carolina. “Morning Joe” hosts Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough moderate, with questions to the former star of “The Apprentice” coming from the audience.
The internet poses a problem for someone’s privacy on “American Crime” (ABC, 10 p.m.).
Adam wants to go to a Weird Al Yankovic concert on “The Goldbergs” (ABC, 8:30 p.m.).
A cardboard cut out of Gloria gets as much attention at the local grocery store on “Modern Family” (ABC, 9 p.m.) as Sofia Vergara did dancing in Putbull’s Grammy finale this week.
The remaining half of the Top 24 perform on “American Idol” (Fox, 8 p.m.).
One of the “Teachers” (TVLand, 11 p.m.) gets drunk at a bar.
Liza goes to a music festival with Josh on a new “Younger” (TV Land, 10 p.m.).
A heavily nostalgic night on Turner Classic Movies’ 31 Days of Oscar has the original version of “The Odd Couple” (8 p.m.), “The Way We Were” (10 p.m.), the Streisand “A Star is Born” (12:15 a.m.), “Blackboard Jungle” (2:45 a.m.), mentioned momentarily in the “Vinyl” pilot; and “Trial” (4:30 a.m.).
Men’s college hoops include Dayton at Saint Joseph’s (CBS Sports, 6 p.m.), Syracuse at Louisville (ESPN, 7 p.m.), Villanova at Temple (ESPN2, 7 p.m.), Central Florida at Memphis (ESPNU, 7 p.m.), Providence at Xavier (Fox Sports 1, 7 p.m.), DePaul at St. John’s (CBS Sports, 8 p.m.), Seton Hall at Georgetown (Fox Sports 1, 9 p.m.), Arizona State at Arizona (ESPN2, 9 p.m.), Duke at North Carolina (ESPN, 9 p.m.), Oklahoma at Texas Tech (ESPNU, 9 p.m.) and Boise State at New Mexico (CBS Sports, 10 p.m.).
Hockey has Chicago at Rangers (NBC Sports, 8 p.m.).
