TONIGHT'S MUST-SEE

"Holiday Ice Dreams," 7, 11 p.m., A&E. Sergei Grinkov and Ekaterina Gordeeva were the dream duo of figure skating. This was a likable married couple that won two Olympic gold medals. Then he died of heart trouble at 28, in 1995, leaving a 24-year-old widow and their young daughter. Now skate fans can celebrate the flow of life. Gordeeva has remarried (Ilia Kulik, the skater, in 2002). Her daughter, Daria Grinkov, is 11 and joins Rosalynn Sumners to help introduce tonight's numbers. Skaters include Paul Wylie, Gordeeva, Kulik and the duo of Isabelle Brasseur and Lloyd Eisler.

"ER," 9 p.m., NBC. Viewers find out tonight if Romano really was killed in the previous episode's helicopter accident. Meanwhile, there are problems for both newcomers. Neela (Parminder Nagra) deals with teens who were injured in a car crash, before returning to their Amish way of life. Sam (Linda Cardellini) feels Kovac is intruding in the life of her troubled son.



Of Note

"Survivor: Pearl Islands," 7 p.m., CBS. With the finale just 10 days away, the field is trimmed to five people.

"Friends," 7 p.m., NBC. In this rerun, Ross wants to interest his son in the Jewish holidays. The boy, alas, is dazzled by Santa Claus and Rudolph. Meanwhile, Chandler is clueless in the art of getting a good table at a restaurant.

"The Tracy Morgan Show," 7:30 p.m., NBC. This new show, usually on Tuesdays, borrows a Thursday slot. After reading his son's letter to Santa in which he admits to wrongdoing, Tracy goes way too far. Soon, the boy thinks there will be no Christmas.

"Will & Grace," 8 p.m., NBC. Candice Bergen portrays an old friend, trying to one-up Karen. Tom Everett Scott is an old boyfriend who meets the lovelorn Grace.
