NCAA Tournament

7 p.m., CBS

Sigh. March Madness makes me crazier than the World Series does, for the simple reason that it lasts longer than the World Series. I hate being disrupted. "Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains" should be on at 8, and I should be talking about how the Heroes' philosophy is apparently along the lines of "a James in the hand is better than a Tom with two good knees." I deeply dislike this Heroes tribe, because they basically stink at everything and then they play really dumb strategy. Unless it is all about the merge. But "Survivor" isn't on. Ohio vs. Georgetown is on. Followed by Lehigh vs. Kansas.

30 Rock

9:30 p.m., NBC

Every time "30 Rock" hits NBC in the knees with a steel pipe I wonder who Lorne Michaels and Tina Fey have naked photos of. This whole sale of NBC to a cable company "from Philadelphia," the whole death of Don Geiss, the whole Jack Welch thing (and yes, that was actually Jack Welch; no Emmy in his future, but still ...). How do they get away with this? It is every employee's dream.

Project Runway

10 p.m., Lifetime

Poor Ben. Done in by a suit. And btw, how was it legal for Jay to pitch in and help (even if all he did was sew on some sharks' teeth - still laughing over that)? I do agree that the jock strap overlay on the pants was unfortunate. But I felt that Amy's hairy boob dress was far more egregious. They both tried and failed; I felt her failure was far more dramatic. True, he's never won a challenge and she has, so I guess that figures in.
