What's On: So You Think You Can Go On Without Alex Wong?

One of our favorites may have been eliminated on So You Think You Can Dance last week, but another of our choice twirlers is still in the running to take it all. Can he triumph over his competitors -- and can he hold our attention while juicy episodes of The Real World and Big Brother fight for acknowledgment?

Big Brother 12 [CBS, 8 PM]

The Power of Veto competition commences, and the house saboteur is revealed to the home viewer. Of course, maybe there isn't a saboteur, and America is getting played. Or this is just a dumb conceit and Big Brother's not that diabolical.

So You Think You Can Dance [Fox, 8 PM]

Now that Alex Wong is too injured to compete, this season's win could really go to anyone. I suspect that Jose and Kent are going to face bottom-three status soon, which will almost even out the gender imbalance in this year's lineup. My vote still goes to Billy Bell, though.

The Real World [MTV, 10 PM]

Knight and Jemmye (<3 and <3, respectively) come closer to hooking up, and Ryan gives up on McKenzie to scam on some of her friends. We all know what this means: another Movieline love song dedicated to fair Ryan. I'm polishing my purity ring!

The Departed [FX, 8 PM]

Scorsese scored his first Best Director Oscar for this twisty tale of an undercover cop (Leonardo DiCaprio) who explores a Boston mob with a mole (Matt Damon) in the state police department. Jack Nicholson gets real creepy too, which I like in a number of Best Pictures (Terms of Endearment in particular).
