Modern Family (9pm, ABC) - Lots going on in this ep, but I'm most looking forward to Phil facing his fear of the dark and of bugs as he considers an adventure under the house with Luke.
Law & Order: SVU (9pm, NBC) - As they did with Monday night's "Law & Order," NBC is offering back-to-back "SVU" to fill the Leno void at 10pm. In the first episode, Kathy Griffin guest stars as the leader of a lesbian rights group who assists the detectives as they investigate the murder of a member. And this should get viewers -- Griffin's character shares a kiss with Olivia Benson, played by Mariska Hargitay. In the second episode, Benson and Stabler look into the murder of young prostitutes, and Benson gets emotionally involved when one of the victims, played by Mischa Barton, survives her attack.
The Locator (10pm, WeTV) - Troy Dunn's "track 'em down" show moves to a new night and a new time (I personally liked the Saturday at 8pm slot, but WeTV didn't ask
me). In tonight's one-hour season premiere, a young woman searches for the father she hasn't seen since she was three years old, and a mother searches for the daughter she gave up for adoption 40 years ago.
Nip/Tuck (10pm, FX) - "Nip/Tuck" ends tonight after seven over-the-top years on the air. In this final episode, Sean (Dylan Walch) and Christian (Julian McMahon), at right, reflect on their relationship and also remove a curious scar from an elderly Japanese adult film star. There's plenty of personal drama surrounding the guys, as usual, but it should be a satisfying ending for fans.
Oprah Winfrey Oscar Special (10pm, ABC) - Oprah has Oscar winners interviewing other Oscar winners.
