Dr. Phil (Own, 8 pm) A woman leaves her husband for another man and now lives in a tent; a woman learns her husband was living a secret life for almost a year.

For the last 12 months, he was known at the TGI Friday’s as “Eduardo.”

Modern Family (ABC, 9 pm) Jay’s relationship with the dog irritates Gloria; Phil and Luke try to master the tightrope; Cameron starts a juice fast.

Maybe if Gloria was more obedient, her relationship with Jay would be better.

Criminal Minds (CBS, 9 pm) The team investigates when bodies are found buried beneath the ocean floor off Florida; Morgan is rattled when his aunt thinks her missing daughter is one of the victims.

Is your daughter a Costa Rican drug runner? Probably not one of the victims, then.

Guy Code (MTV 2, 9:30 pm) A bevy of pop-culture entertainers, comics, athletes and even specialized experts discuss the rules for any and every situation in life.

If a guy says “you’re hawt”, he wants to sleep with you; if a guy says “I’m hungry”, it means he wants to eat; if a guy says “Leave me alone,” it means he wants to be left alone.

Law & Order, SVU (NBC, 10 pm) The detectives are called to investigate when a hotel maid reports being assaulted by a powerful Italian diplomat.

The people and scenarios depicted in this program are entirely fictitious, and any resemblance to real Italian diplomats who assaulted hotel maids and then fled the country are entirely coincidental.

Brad Meltzer’s Decoded (History, 10 pm) The team travels to Rome to investigate the mysterious death of Pope John Paul the First.

And are stymied by a shadowy cabal of evil monks hell-bent on keeping a deadly secret.

True Life (MTV, 10 pm) Documentary series provides viewers with a first-person perspective on unseen parts of society and its subcultures, including everything from politics to pornography and cheerleading.

First cheerleading became a “sport”, and now it’s a “subculture”? Slow your roll, cheerleading.

Toddlers & Tiaras (TLC, 10 pm) Three girls and their coach moms from Perfection Studios face off.

This will be excellent practice for the future, when the only jobs they’re qualified for are prostitution and being Hooter’s Girls.

Hasta Que el Dinero Nos Separe (Univision, 12 am) Tras un accidente automovilístico con una ejecutiva de una empresa, Rafael tiene que trabajar en la empresa de ella para pagar la deuda enorme.

Loosely translates as “Girl in a tight top speaks rapid-fire Spanish while subliminal messages encourage you to buy more diced tomatos.”

By day, I'm an editor. That means I get a cruel thrill out of identifying the parts of other people's creative projects that suck, and alerting those people to said suckage. Sometimes, I get paid for it. I've been known to lose my appetite after seeing how a Thai menu has folded, spindled, and mutilated the Queen's English. Imagine what TV does to me! I guess that's why I wanted to be a recapper at TVgasm. My friends have heard all of my rants, and they are sick of them. TVgasm is a whole new captive audience! So, let's make a compact, you and I: you agree to read my recaps and take what amusement you can from them, and I agree to put into the print the outrageous observations about the show that you thought, but were too PC to say. Let's share our joyous rage after wasting another perfectly good hour in front of the television.

Oh, and I still believe that Magnum, P.I. was the greatest show on television. Although I have not seen Thomas Magnum fishtail that Ferrari in the opening credits since I was 14. If Magnum, P.I. actually sucked, keep your damn squeal hole shut and don't ruin it for me, OK?

    Diced tomatoes are so good! I need to put them on my grocery list. Thanks for the reminder, Univision!

    Dr Phil’s face annoys me. He looks like one of those celebrity scrambles TMZ occasionally puts on their website.
