Suburgatory/The Middle/Modern Family/Happy Endings (ABC) -- ABC is the only network running new airings of their regular shows, and from 8 to 10 EST, they're the best thing going.

Before we get to the list of reruns and leftovers, check out how surprisingly bad ass pogo sticking is in the above video.

Survivor (CBS) -- What is wrong with these people.

Even the best reality competitions -- and "Top Chef" is certainly that -- rely on a format that's as predictable as it is comfortable to viewers.

Top Chef: Texas (Bravo) -- Season premiere.

It may surprise you to learn that "Top Chef" host Padma Lakshmi actually used to be a supermodel, given that you were likely only interested in her for her opinions on food and the deft way she tells contestants about their cooking challenges.

"Top Chef" has always been a well-respected reality show, both within foodie culture and among the rabble who hate most reality programming (like me).

Top Chef (Bravo) -- Season finale.

"Top Chef All Stars" took the final four contestants to the Bahamas for last night's episode (S8E14, "Island Fever"), and Padma Lakshmi did the world a favor by showing up in a bikini to explain the cooking challenge, which could have been anything because I didn't hear a word she said.
