Burn Notice (10pm, USA) - No, it's not a reality show about sunglasses. It's the eighth highest rated show on cable. People love it. The New York Post calls it "a lot of fun." Tonight, Fi deals with a paranoid kidnapper and Michael tries to take down a black ops rival, but the situation gets out of control. 

The weather's bad and the attitudes are worse on the second episode of the All-Star, Heroes vs. Villains Laff-A-Lympics.

Burn Notice (10pm, USA) - "Burn Notice" finally get its "infiltrate the fashion world" episode.

For its 10th anniversary and 20th installment, "Survivor" isn't messing around with a bunch of unknown L.A. bartenders, models and hangers-on.

Instead, it has brought back some of its most memorable cast members from seasons past (many now sorta-known L.A. bartenders, models and hangers-on who were once on a reality show.)

The 20 cast members are divided into two teams -- Heroes and Villains -- and the first episode doesn't disappoint. Within the first few minutes we have a dislocated body part, a broken body part and several gratuitously pixelated body parts.

Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains (8pm, CBS) - The show's 20th installment has 20 former castaways on the island of Samoa and divided into groups of Heroes and Villians. Rupert (right) is one of the show's most popular Heroes.

Survivor: Samoa (8pm, CBS) - At the reward challenge, one of the tribal leaders makes a controversial decision that lands him in hot water. Meanwhile, Jaison tries to build an alliance against Evil Russell. Russell is the one who formed himself a "Dumb Ass Girl Alliance" (left) on the first show, and totally made up a heartbreaking story about living in New Orleans during Katrina and losing his beloved German Shepherd in a muddy flood. Never lived in New Orleans. Never had a dog. All a lie. He is evil.

Parks and Recreation (8:30pm, NBC) - Leslie judges the Miss Pawnee beauty pageant and clashes with other judges on the issue of what defines the "ideal woman." We're assuming her notion involves being able to rock Fresh Prince lyrics around the office.

Survivor: Samoa (8pm, CBS) - Hard to believe, but this is the 19th season of "Survivor." Tonight, right after being divided into two tribes but before they are even given a chance to speak to each other, they are charged with electing a chief who will make all their decisions.

Bones (8pm, Fox) - The fifth season premieres with Booth (David Boreanaz) fresh from surgery to remove a brain tumor, but suffering from bouts of amnesia. Angela's psychic, played by Cyndi Lauper, tells them there are bodies buried under a fountain in Washington, D.C., so Booth and Brennan (Emily Deschanel) are back on the job asap.

Fringe (9pm, Fox) - Congress is all up in the Fringe unit's Kool-Aid in tonight's second season premiere. In addition to the scrutiny from congress, Olivia returns to familiar surroundings, but there's a "mysterious entity" tracking her. Olivia also gets to add "super hearing" to her trick bag this season.

Comedian Louis C.K. joins the cast as a love interest for Leslie. At 9pm, "The Office" season 6 opens with Dunder-Mifflin staffers gossiping about summer interns. Michael (Steve Carell) feels left out so he goes out looking for a rumor to spread. Then at 9:30 it's the premiere of NBC's new sitcom "Community," starring Joel McHale and Chevy Chase. Here's our full review, but in a nutshell: it's funny.

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia (10pm, FX) - Season 5 opens with Frank, Mac, and Dennis trying their hand at real estate (great timing) and Dee decides to be a surrogate for a rich couple. 

Tonight's Survivor was a gift. The generous but insane giver? Coach.

Right off the bat he shares a truly unbelievable story of how he was once captured by a gang of Aborigines in the Amazon jungle, then tied up and beaten nearly to death. But he valiantly escaped and paddled his little kayak to safety. Oh yeah, he was dropped off in the Amazon (for free, because he pulled some strings) by a US Military helicopter. And National Geographic had begged him to let them accompany him on this trip but he told them no way, "this trip is about me."

What isn't about you?

Last night we got a heaping dose of Coach in all his megalomaniacal glory -- complete with a lot of pretenious pontificating, his creepy shoulder rubs, and that whole ridiculous Dragonslayer vibe. And don't forget the hair.  Even Brandon mimicked Coach's constant hair-stroking and flipping. 

But Assistant Coach Tyson is quickly closing in on the Soccer Samarai as the creepiest/most laughable Survivor contestant in recent history. Did Tyson really have to say that he has kissed Brandon on the "nape of his neck" and "the small of his back?" Because I don't believe that.
