Tonight's Must-See
"Friends," 7 p.m., NBC. In this rerun, Rachel's cynical sister (Christina Applegate) shows up for Thanksgiving and asks a random question: If Rachel died, who would become guardian of her baby? From there, the arguments fly. It's a great episode.
"Stars on Ice," 7 and 11 p.m., A&E. Some dazzling talent comes together on this tour. Most notable may be Alexei Yagudin. In 2002, he got the highest marks of any single skater in Olympic history then got six-out-of-six perfect scores in the World Championships. Also performing are the two duos that shared gold medals at the 2002 Olympics Jamie Sale and David Pelletier of Canada, and Elena Berezhnaya and Anton Sikharulidze of Russia.
Of Note
"Survivor: The Amazon," 7 p.m., CBS. A fourth person is ousted.
"Scrubs," 7:30 p.m., NBC. Staffers grumble when J.D. dates a woman who is visiting her comatose husband. Meanwhile, Elliot (Sarah Chalke) worries that Paul (Rick Schroder) doesn't trust her.
"Will & Grace," 8 and 9 p.m., NBC. Here are 90 minutes of reruns, tracing the relationship of Grace and Leo (Debra Messing and Harry Connick Jr.). In the first episode, she bumbles a meeting with his parents; in the second (a funny, one-hour one), Katie Couric inadvertently spurs their sudden marriage.
"CSI: Crime Scene Investigation," 8 p.m., CBS. This rerun involves the long-ago murder of three college women; DNA evidence re-opens the case.
"Clueless" (1995), 9 p.m., USA Network. Using Jane Austen's "Emma" as a starting point, Amy Heckerling wrote and directed this delightful look at a well-meaning but ditzy teen in Beverly Hills. Alicia Silverstone is perfect in the lead, with Brittany Murphy and Stacey Dash in support.
