“Chuck” (8 p.m., NBC): Put on those funky glasses for a nerd-tastic 3-D episode of “Chuck.” It has our hero foiling a plan to kill international rock star and major party animal Tyler Martin (Dominic Monaghan of “Lost”). Former NFL standout Jerome Bettis guest stars.

“House” (8 p.m., Fox): The medical drama with an abusive doc at the helm hits episode No. 100.

“Bromance” (9 p.m., MTV): You know you can’t wait to hear: Brody Jenner picks his “bro” in the season finale. On second thought, maybe you can wait.

“The Polio Crusade” (9 p.m., PBS): The panic of polio in the early 1950s was equaled only by the public’s support of efforts to find a cure. “The Polio Crusade” recalls the summer of 1950, when fear gripped the nation as a mysterious virus afflicted tens of thousands of Americans, half of them children. This edition of PBS’ “American Experience” features interviews with polio survivors, historians and scientists, including the lone surviving scientist from the core research team that developed the Salk vaccine. By June 1954, nearly 2 million school children in 44 states had taken part in a field trial to see if the vaccine worked, or was even safe. Less than a year later, the vaccine was ruled safe and effective. But “The Polio Crusade” also tells of the campaign masterminded by New York lawyer Basil O’Connor, who, years before, had mobilized the public to fight a war against polio. Rather than continue to rely on wealthy philanthropists for funding, O’Connor rallied everyone to contribute whatever small change they could afford. The March of Dimes was born as millions of Americans each claimed a role in finding a medical breakthrough.

“Medium” (10 p.m., NBC): Allison Dubois (Patricia Arquette) gets back to seeing dead people as “Medium” finally returns from a long hiatus. Good thing, too, because there are murders that need solving.
