CBS, 8:00 p.m. ET
A repeat, but a fun one: Wil Wheaton, who plays a spiteful version of himself as an occasional guest star on this series, shows up again to torture Sheldon (Jim Parsons). Basically, Wheaton is to Sheldon what Newman was to Jerry Seinfeld on Seinfeld - and just as funny.
NBC, 8:00 p.m. ET
In tonight’s new episode, we learn that Britta has a soft spot for carnies – and when an ex of hers shows up, it’s apparent she’s been barkering up the wrong tree.
Lifetime, 8:00 p.m. ET
This movie biography was made in 1997, when Tejano singer Selena, who had been murdered at the height of her young fame, was a big name in the Latino community – and when Jennifer Lopez, who plays her in this biopic, was not. If you’ll permit an Idol observation: How times have changed…
TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET
This is one of the newer movies in the TCM vault – and it’s more than 30 years old.

ABC, 10:01 p.m. ET
