Are You Smarther Than a 5th Grader?

Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?
8/7c Fox
It has been 12 years since Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman was canceled, so we'll see just how rusty Dean Cain's superpowers (mental division) have become. Before donning that red Superman cape, celebrity contestant Cain did go to Princeton (his degree is in history), but that doesn't necessarily mean he's as smart as a fifth grader.

Monk

Monk
9/8 CT USA
Monk kicks off its eighth and final season tonight as the obsessive-compulsive detective takes a case that messes with his sense of reality...well, a little more than usual. Monk eagerly becomes a bodyguard for a former child star (played by Elizabeth Perkins) who's receiving death threats. But his excitement fades when he learns the actress is nothing like her TV alter ego.

Eureka

Wizards on Deck with Hannah Montana
8 pm/ET Disney
Three of Disney's biggest hits (Hannah Montana, Wizards of Waverly Place, The Suite Life on Deck) cross over in this 90-minute laughfest that is sure to please fans of all three shows. The fun begins when Justin, Alex and Max Russo join a teen cruise on the SS Tipton, which is, of course, the home of Zack and Cody Martin... and London Tipton. Justin is crazy about London and pretends he is a doctor to get a date with her. Later, it's a fan-feeding frenzy when Hannah Montana arrives on the ship for a concert.

Good Morning America, GMA Summer Concert Series

Good Morning America
7 am/ET ABC
Go to the movies and you can hear Queen Latifah as a mama-to-be woolly mammoth in the animated comedy Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs. And this morning you can hear her as herself on GMA. She has a new album, Persona (executive-produced by Miami duo Cool and Dre), so cue the record promoters. Its first single is "Cue the Rain," so you can expect that she'll perform it. But here's hoping she doesn't actually bring it to Central Park (at least until after the concert's over).

Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader

Good Morning America
7 am/ET ABC
Water, water everywhere — that's where country fans can expect to hear "Water," the second single from Brad Paisley's new American Saturday Night CD, this summer. It shouldn't come as a surprise, seeing as how Paisley's coming off yet another No 1 hit with "Then" (his 10th No. 1 single in a row), not to mention two CMA awards last November and three CMT awards last month. And be very surprised if he doesn't play "Water" on this morning's GMA Central Park concert.
