Game Show in My Head 8 p.m., Channel 4

Ashton Kutcher's new reality show, which premieres tonight, riffs on "Punk'd," Kutcher's previous adventure in good-natured psychological abuse. The premise is simple: Players are instructed via an earpiece to perform outrageous acts in public for money. Tonight's victims, er, contestants, are a personal trainer from Salt Lake City and a Buffalo entrepreneur.

Underdog to Wonderdog 8 p.m., Animal Planet

The extreme-makeover gravy train rolls into the local animal shelter, where the Doggie Wonder Dream Team - a trainer, groomer, carpenter (we can only assume he's on custom doghouse duty), and host - tap down-on-their-luck pups for Cinderella-caliber transformations. A loving home, natch, is the icing on the dog biscuit. Tonight's lucky canine is Lucky, a skittish Yorkie.

Good Will Hunting 8 p.m., Bravo

Best. Boston. Movie. Evah. Sorry, Clint.

8 Mile 9 p.m., VH1

Eminem has vanished from the music scene, but we can visit him on the small screen.

National Geographic's Most Astonishing Moments 10 p.m., National Geographic

A shark attack, a tornado, close encounters with polar bears, and nail-biting well rescues. Pass the popcorn.

Little Miss Sunshine 9 p.m., USA

The perfect post-holiday reminder that yours is not the most dysfunctional family.
