Roast of Bob Saget, 10 p.m. on Comedy Central

Brace yourself for plenty of “bleeps.” Norm Macdonald, Jon Lovitz, Gilbert Gottfried and several others bring the heat as they needle fellow comic Bob Saget (pictured). John Stamos, who co-stared with Saget on the wholesome series “Full House,” is your roast master.

TONIGHT: Say “goodbye” to Chris Noth as Mr. Big ... um, we mean Mike Logan ... bows out of “Law & Order: Criminal Intent.” His final case? A 16-year-old triple-homicide. 9 p.m. on USA.

MONDAY: “The Hills Rejoice.” You no longer have to settle for reading about Lauren Conrad and her fellow drama queens in the gossip rags. MTV's (virtual) reality hit is back for its fourth season and life is good again ... if you're into this sort of thing. 10 p.m. on MTV.

MONDAY: Kevin Bacon drops by to direct his wife, Kyra Sedgwick, in this episode of “The Closer” that has the entire squad shifting into overdrive to track down the scumbag who shot Sanchez's brother. 9 p.m. on TNT.

TUESDAY: On “The Secret Life of the American Teenager,” Amy's grandma visits the family and offers to help out with Amy's situation. Yeah, that's a good name for it ... her “situation.” 8 p.m. on ABC Family.

WEDNESDAY: Oh, we are so down with ninjas. That's why this edition of “Mythbusters” has us stoked. It examines ninja myths, including the concept of catching an arrow in midair and knocking out a foe with a punch from an inch away. Way cool. 9 p.m. on Discovery.

THURSDAY: In the new reality competition series, “Glam God With Vivica A. Fox,” the search is on for the next great Hollywood stylist. The winner nabs $100,000 and gets to style a star. (And also probably gets to put up with the star's hissy fits.) 10 p.m., VH1.

THURSDAY: The second season of “Randy Jackson Presents: America's Best Dance Crew” comes to what we hope will be an electrifying end as the winning crew gets crowned after one last dance-off. 10 p.m. on MTV.

THURSDAY: On the sudsy season finale of “MVP,” desperation drives Evelyn to solicit the help of a psychic to locate her daughter. Meanwhile, Mandy breaks Damon out of the rehab clinic with disastrous results. We hate it when that happens. 11 p.m. on SOAPnet.

FRIDAY: Get set for sugary pop tunes and rousing dance numbers as the new movie, “Cheetah Girls One World” has Chanel, Aqua and Dorinda traveling to India for their Bollywood debut. 8 p.m. on Disney Channel.

SATURDAY: Jane Seymour plays a cross between Martha Stewart and Jessica Fletcher in “Dear Prudence.” She's a domestic maven who gets embroiled in a mystery while vacationing in Wyoming. It's the first in a series of movies. 9 p.m. on Hallmark.
