Tonight's Must-See

"Frasier," 7, 7:30 and 8 p.m., NBC. Just nine days before the final episode, we get a crash course on Frasier's wobbly romantic life. If you drifted during the so-so "Frasier" years, jump back in. This final season is terrific.

"The Shield," 10 p.m., FX. Several major stories are resolved tonight. We find out who stole $7,000 from Vic's stash of stolen money. We learn what will happen to the visiting decoy squad and to Claudette Wyms' power grab. And there's much more.

Of Note

"American Idol," 7 p.m., Fox. The final five — including Hawai'i's Jasmine Trias — compete.

"Scrubs," 8:31 p.m., NBC. In the season finale, it's time for the wedding of Turk and Carla — except Turk is taking on some extra surgery that day.
