I've not been paying close attention to chef Rocco DiSpirito, so despite the fact that he's been a reality show regular, I'm not sick of him.

That's important when you're watching "Rocco's Dinner Party" (Bravo, 11 tonight; moves to 10 next week) because, just like in the title, Rocco is front and center.

Surrounding him is a show that's kind of like a mini-"Top Chef"; 3 chefs compete to cook a dinner for Rocco and his friends. One is eliminated quickly after a Quick Fire-like challenge.

Mash together elements of "Project Runway" and "Top Chef" and you get Bravo's latest reality competition show "Platinum Hit (10 tonight)."

This time the contestants want to be songwriters, well, kinda. Like one of the guest judges, Jermaine Dupri, they already seem sick of toiling in the background and are ready for center stage.

That's why you get one guy who proclaiming himself 'a musical genius,' and another who says "I sing for the widow, I sing for the orphan." For real.

American Idol (8pm, Fox) - Scotty, James, Lauren, and Haley perform the tunes of the influential 1950s songwriting duo Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller.

Happy Endings (10pm, ABC) - Two back-to-back new episodes again this week. This show is really funny and I won't stop harping on it till you watch. I already let your complacency cost me "Perfect Couples." In the first episode, Dave and Alex must decide what to do about the his-and-her tattoos they got when they were a couple. In the second episode, Penny dates a teacher Dave admires and discovers he's not as wonderful as everyone thinks.

Happy Endings (9:30pm, ABC) - A new sitcom about the complications that arise among a group of friends after a seemingly perfect couple in the group breaks up in a really ugly, public way. Do you take sides? Does the group survive? In tonight's pilot, which has some legitimately funny moments, Alex (Elisha Cuthbert, '24') leaves fiance Dave (Zachary Knighton, 'FlashForward') at the altar for a bare-chested guy on rollerblades. When the friends find the jilted groom at home surrounded by couples' wedding gifts, making gin smoothies, crying, and singing along to "Closer to Fine," I laughed out loud. I also enjoyed the various meltdowns at Penny's birthday party (Casey Wilson, 'Saturday Night Live'). Rounding out the eclectic sitcom cast is the requisite gay friend (Adam Pally), who "looks like Paul Rudd if Paul Rudd gave up" (according to his friend Jane), and an interracial married couple played by Damon Wayans Jr. and Eliza Coupe. There's a second  episode at 10pm. It's not groundbreaking, but it has a welcome 'Samantha Who?' vibe and it's definitely worth checking out.
