Schwarzenegger solemnly swears to take ovah for the 'Republicans'

10-11PM The AMC Project: Rated R: Republicans in Hollywood (AMC, TV-PG) Finally, somebody in Tinseltown is talking about the elephant in the room. Documentarian Jesse Moss explores the world of Hollywood conservatives, with his tongue firmly planted in his cheek, while on the trail of the 2003 gubernatorial campaign of actor-turned-politician Arnold Schwarzenegger (left). In interviews, proud right-wingers like Pat Sajak and Everybody Loves Raymond mom Patricia Heaton claim the conservative ideology is on the rise in Hollywood. Maybe, but as Moss makes clear, there's still a ways to go. In La-La Land, Bush still seems to be a four-letter word. B+

8-9PM Body Challenge: Hollywood (Discovery Health Channel, TV-G) Damn you, Erik Estrada and Charlene Tilton! We grow weak with nostalgia and crave your tenuous connection to our youth like sweet, sweet crack.

10-11PM The Amazing Race (CBS) Christie, have I got a book for you. It's called He's Just Not That Into You. As in, if you're on a reality show and your guy is a rageaholic creep even though you're nice, He's Just Not That Into You. Not that you should need a book to figure that out.

SERIES DEBUT 10-11PM Holiday Showdown (BBC America, TV-G) Two families swap ideas for vacations, then travel together, living by each clan's rules for one week. Where are the wealthy hedonists who just want to be left alone? How do we sign up with them?

SERIES DEBUT 10-11PM Stuck to ODB (Spike) In the name of quality television, Spike’s new series challenges a normal individual to stay within 10 feet of Ol' Dirty Bastard for five days straight. Wasn't this already done with a woman, a chain, and Jeff the Drunk on Howard Stern?
