1) “Only Murders in the Building,” 9-11 p.m., ABC. For three seasons on Hulu (with a fourth coming), this has combined murder mysteries with quietly clever glimpses of eccentric New Yorkers. Now the first season reruns over four Tuesdays on ABC. A has-been actor and a never-was director (played by Steve Martin and Martin Short) link with a neighbor (Selena Gomez, they’re shown here) for a true-crime podcast.
2) “Night Court,” 8 p.m., NBC. After a good first season, this stumbles at the start of the second. The idea is solid, reuniting two characters from the original “Night Court”: Dan (John Larroquette) is a judge now and Roz (Marsha Warfield), the long-ago bailiff, shows up needing a favor. The result is noisy and busy, but rarely clever.
3) “Extended Family,” 8:30, NBC. Like “Night Court,” this is quick and loud; fortunately, it’s also reasonably clever. Jim and Julia (Jon Cryer and Abigail Spencer) are divorced and alternating living at home with the kids. When her boyfriend plans to spend the night, Jim producers a Sheldon-style contract.
4) “American Masters,” 9 p.m., PBS. Edward Hopper tended to tower above the crowd. Tall (6-foot-5), balding and distant, he did paintings that focused on buildings, with any people seeeming alone. Then, in his early 40s, he met and married his opposite. Jo Nivison was short, friendly, eager; she slowed her career to be his model and booster; hesitantly, he found fame.
5) “The Floor” season-opener, 9 p.m., Fox. On this high-tech floor are 81 people, each an expert in some niche – athletes or A-listers, bugs or brunch, kids’ books or hip hop or whatever. To advance, a player must beat someone in his own niche. That fills the start with dull mismatches. Only gradually – when players must defend a different niche – does “The Floor” become fairly interesting.
