The Great American Road Trip Forget the ''staycation'' and hitch a ride on this wild cross-country journey. Road Trip is a new eight-episode reality series that has a group of disparate families traveling historic Route 66 and competing in some kooky challenges. Along the way, they check out iconic landmarks such as the Grand Canyon and Washington Monument while doing their best to maintain their sanity. Sounds like a show with potential, but let's hope the first episode doesn't make us squeal, ''Are we there yet?'' 8 p.m. Tuesday, NBC.
Other bets
Tonight: In Miss Marple: A Pocket Full of Rye, Julia McKenzie takes on the role of Agatha Christie's spinster sleuth for a new Masterpiece Mystery! series. This time our heroine is snooping into a trio of murders that seem to mimic a nursery rhyme. 9 p.m., PBS.
Tonight: Trouble is brewing on the latest edition of Expedition Africa, as one team member contracts malaria and two others engage in a heated argument. Sounds like a swell time for a rest stop. 10 p.m., History Channel.
Monday: The Beatles or the Rolling Stones? Star Trek or Star Wars? Ginger or Mary Ann? These and other nagging questions will be pondered on The Great Debate, a six-part series that has bickering celebrities attempting to settle (without bloodshed) matters once and for all. No one asked us, but, Mary Ann rules. 10 p.m., VH1.
Monday: On Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List, our beleaguered gal continues to try to raise her profile this time by writing a tell-all book about her friends, her family and, naturally, poor Ryan Seacrest. 10 p.m., Bravo.
Tuesday: We really don't want to hate 10 Things I Hate About You. It's a new teen-centric series inspired by the 1999 hit movie, which was inspired by the writings of some old dude named Shakespeare. 8 p.m., ABC Family.
Wednesday: Neil Patrick Harris, aka Barney from How I Met Your Mother, serves as a guest judge on Top Chef Masters as the contestants must cook eggs with one hand tied behind their backs. Sounds like we better suit up. 10 p.m., Bravo.
Thursday: On Big Brother 11, a new set of boorish roomies moves into what TV Guide calls the ''hostel from hell.'' Let the back-stabbing commence. 8 p.m., CBS.
Friday: The Assistants is a new comedy about four underlings working for a hot-shot producer in Hollywood and looking for their big break. We're told that lots of hilarity ensues. 8:30 p.m., The N.
Saturday: Harper's Island, the weekly murder mystery that took '' 'til death do you part'' way too literally, comes to a close with what we hope will be a bloody good finale. 9 p.m., CBS.
