What to Watch Tonight: Terra Nova, Rizzoli & Isles, and the Return of Fear Factor

What to watch on Monday, December 12…

Haha, bet you weren’t expecting THIS mug staring at you from in front of a fireball. You’re probably like, “What year is this??” Sorry. Mondays, am I right? But anyway: So much TV tonight! Some of it’ll even be good!

SEASON PREMIERE, 8pm, NBC
Fear Factor
In a testament to the fact that sometimes our prayers go unanswered, Fear Factor returns tonight for an all-new round of disgusting, horrifying fun. Joe Rogan is back as host, and tonight’s premiere involves airlifted contestants jumping onto the back of a moving truck; eating scorpions; and getting strapped to the front of a cement mixer as it races up a runway. Yay?

10pm, CBS
Hawaii Five-0
Tonight the hunks and babes of Hawaii Five-0 mobilize to investigate a body discovered by some local teens in an abandoned World War II bunker. Elsewhere, Chin Ho and Malia get hitched.

SEASON 1 FINALE, 9:30pm, HBO
Enlightened
A truly great first season comes to a close tonight as Amy successfully persuades Levi to seek help for his addictions. Meanwhile, at Abaddon, Amy decides to make an important presentation to Damon’s department, an act which puts her job in jeopardy. Oh, Amy.

8pm, Fox
Terra Nova
The colony’s starting to heat up as it teeters on the bring of war. Plus Taylor and Jim smoke out the Sixer mole and Lucas tries to assemble his mystery device before the arrival of the 11th Pilgrimage.

10pm, TNT
Rizzoli & Isles
Maura accompanies Jane to her high-school reunion, but OBVIOUSLY a dead body is discovered on the football field. Why wouldn’t one be? Also, guest-star Lolita Davidovich arrives as Korsak’s ex-wife, and she’s got a business proposition for him!

SERIES PREMIERE, 8pm, OWN
Rollin’ with Zach
Remember when Oprah had that reality show where the winner would get his or her own talk show? Well, that’s what’s happening here! The highly charming, cerebral palsy-having Zach Anner stars in this travel show, which finds the titular wheelchair-bound hero accomplishing awesome things in different cities. Tonight his to-do list includes surfing and appearing as a contestant on The Price Is Right. (Hey, that’s on my to-do list also!)
