MONDAY (1/7)

• The View (ABC, check local listings):  Elisabeth Hasselbeck returns from maternity leave.  I’d gladly sacrifice her to the union gods for an end to the writers’ strike.
• Dance War: Bruno vs. Carrie Ann (ABC, 8pm):  Here’s our chance to see if the DWTS judges can actually teach what they preach.
• American Gladiators (NBC, 8pm):  “In the men’s competition, an engineer takes on a radiation-control technician.”  The year of the nerd has now officially spilled over into 2008.
• Medium (NBC, 10pm):  Season four premiere.  “Allison has creepy visions of a boy being kidnapped from a toy store.”  I never did trust that Geoffrey Giraffe.
• Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations (Travel Channel, 10pm):  Anthony travels to Singapore for his latest season premiere.  I don’t like traveling with crusty people, but I love watching them venture on TV.
• The Daily Show/The Colbert Report (Comedy Central, 11:30pm):  Tonight Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert will crank out their versions of a writer-less show.  God love ‘em for trying.
