C+ LISTEN UP (CBS) 8:30 p.m.
Starring: Jason Alexander, Malcolm-Jamal Warner
They say: Alexander is a sports host and lifestyle columnist. His fans adore him, but his family doesn’t. Modeled after real-life commentator Tony Kornheiser, the character acts suspiciously like George Costanza.
We say: Even skeptics are beginning to believe in the “Seinfeld’’ curse. This family sitcom is strictly yada yada.
Should be known as: “According to George’’

C- LAX (NBC) 10 p.m. (Pictured above)
Starring: Heather Locklear, Blair Underwood
They say: Locklear and Underwood vie as airport heads. Looking fabulous, they cope with drug busts, mysterious suitcases, and drunken pilots.
We say: The light comedic tone doesn’t suit the subject matter. This awkward romp never takes off.
Should be known as: “Terminal’’

C+ SECOND TIME AROUND (UPN) 9:30 p.m.
Starring: Boris Kodjoe, Nicole Parker
They say: Real-life couple Kodjoe and Parker play
divorced spouses who try marriage again. He’s jealous, she’s jealous, they bicker, they make up.
We say: The humor has been done before, too. It’s bland and forgettable.
Should be known as: “Not So Mad About You Two’’
