Two contestants constantly complain about their new makeovers on America’s Next Top Model (UPN, 7pm; airs again on Friday).

Meg graduates from high school on a new American Dreams (NBC, 7pm). Note the new night and time for this series. Daphne Zuniga and Brian McKnight guest star.

Rerun of the episode of Lost (ABC, 7pm – 8:01pm) where a bunch of them go out in search of the abducted Claire and Charlie. It’s a Jack-centric episode where we learn more about his relationship with his father. Meanwhile, Boone and Locke discover something.

Shannon Elizabeth and Tommy Chong guest star on That ’70s Show (FOX, 7pm). Kelso gets to babysit. Oh-oh.

Clark and Lionel Luthor switch bodies on a rerun of Smallville (WB, 7pm).

Angela Bassett and Lynne Moody guest star on a new Alias (ABC, 8:01pm – 9:02pm). Syd becomes convinced that Sloane is Up To Something (duh!), and this causes tension between her and her sister. I’m so glad the show is finally picking up on threads from previous seasons.

Santos must make yet another important decision on The West Wing (NBC, 8pm). Meanwhile, Donna gets an even better position with the Russell campaign. Yup, it’s another campaign episode of this show. I honestly have no idea which candidate will win at this point, which makes it entertaining to watch as they jockey for position.

Kevin and Nicolette defend a dance instructor on a rerun of Kevin Hill (UPN, 8pm).

Grace catches Jack buying condoms on a rerun of Jack & Bobby (WB, 8pm).

Toast falling butter-side down; yawning; toy cars vs. real cars on Mythbusters (Discovery, 8pm and 11pm).

Queer Eye for the Straight Girl (Bravo, 9pm). The Gal Pals help out a lawyer who gave up a high paying gig to help low-income residents of Compton. They’ll help her decorate her office (since she’s too broke to do much).

Candice Bergen and Giancarlo Esposito (of Homicide) guest star on a rerun of Law & Order (NBC, 9pm). A recently paroled prison gang member is found shot to death and there are gang threats against the judge (played by Bergen).

A skeleton is found on a tour bus on a rerun of CSI: NY (CBS, 9pm).
