Celebrity Apprentice

There is a spy in the house of dumb.

STUNT-A-HOLISM
Celebrity Rehab With Dr. Drew
10 p.m., VH1

This is the item in which I once again write about how this series is grotesque, how it makes addiction and sobriety into a farce, and how perversely watchable it is. Last week, Dr. Drew gave Jeff Conaway's girlfriend, Vicki, a stern lecture about enabling Jeff with her PMS medication, and she did not take the news well. Of course, if she took the news well, the producers would probably fire her. And then she'd never get a VH1 reality series of her very own.

Make Me a Supermodel
10 p.m., Bravo

The producers take advantage of the ladies' naked ambitions.

ON DEMAND
A Mighty Heart
1/2 Comcast

The story of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl's 2002 kidnapping and murder, adapted from the memoir written by his widow, Mariane Pearl. Angelina Jolie (above with Dan Futterman) plays Mariane ably and stoically enough that you forget it's a performance, but director Michael Winterbottom structures the film as a suspense procedural, and there can be no suspense when we all know what's coming. In English, French, Urdu, and Arabic, with subtitles. (R; runs through Feb. 28) - Ty Burr

Yes I say yes we will yes. The show is finally back for its fourth season, after a recap episode at 8 p.m. And it arrives like water in the desert. Charlie is gone, and the survivors are conflicted about whether to believe his final warning about the freighter crew. By the way, tonight we'll find out the identity of one other castaway who gets off the island.
