Tonight's TV Tips: Monday, Jan. 3

The Bachelor, 8 p.m., ABC

As a rule, I try to avoid these car-wreck reality shows that set women back to the Stone Age. But sometimes … the siren song is too loud and I. Must. Go. Look. Like tonight, for example, when the Bachelor returns with that guy who couldn't commit, Brad Womack. He narrowed it down to two and then bailed on both. I did not watch but I remember People magazine having an aneurysm. Anyway, he's back, and this time he swears his therapist says he will make a choice. "Brad Womack must face the two women he rejected at the end of his first stint on the show; the bachelor selects a group of 20 women from a pool of 30. (One of them is apparently a vampire.)

The Closer, 9 p.m., TNT

Season finale! I know! So quick. It's been good. And who ever would've thought Kyra Sedgwick could bring back the Farrah haircut? Tonight, "The arrest of a crack addict exposes a questionable rehab facility and leads Brenda's squad on a race to find a missing woman; Gabriel questions Brenda's judgment; Fritz reveals some ugly truths about his past."

It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, 9 p.m., Comedy Central

Some people think this show is funny. I do not.
