MONDAY

MAY 2

9-10PM 24 (Fox) With 7 a.m. fast approaching and the launch codes still not in Jack's hands, he attempts to locate that nuclear football he fumbled a few hours ago. Y'know, Jack, had you taken some time out to participate in the NFL draft, you could have acquired a wide receiver to hold onto the ball.

12:30-1PM Noggin's Move to the Music (Noggin, TV-Y) Think TRL for 2-year-olds. And Laurie Berkner's ''Victor Vito'' video rocks hard. Minivan hard.

8-10PM Million Dollar Recipe (Bravo, TV-PG) Seven fanatical chefs compete at the Pillsbury Bake-Off. Unrelated: I make a mean cup of tea.

9-9:30PM Everybody Loves Raymond (CBS, TV-PG-D) Ray swaps roles with Debra in the sack. Who's feeling a TMI moment?

9-11PM Murder at the Presidio (USA, TV-14) Inspired by actual events, this painfully slow whodunit follows the new king of TV movies, Lou Diamond Phillips, as he investigates the murder of a military-police wife at the famed base. The acting is over-the-top (inappropriate, since this film isn't about a mechanical shark). And Jason Priestley is entirely wasted as the grieving brother who sets Phillips' maverick personal-demon-exorcising inquiry in motion. But at least the ending is satisfying: It means the movie is over. C- —Mandi Bierly
