“The Amazing Race 16” (8 p.m., CBS): Open up that Golden Gate, California — here they come. On “The Amazing Race 16,” the end is here for our world travelers as the remaining teams head for the finish line in San Francisco. Our advice: Don’t forget the $6 for the bridge toll.

“Jesse Stone: NO REMORSE” (9 P.M., CBS): We’re still waiting for that “Magnum P.I.” remake, but for now, Tom Selleck is back in prime time in “Jesse Stone: No Remorse.” The ongoing mystery-movie series is based on characters created by the late Robert B. Parker.

“The Boondocks” (11:30 P.M., CARTOON NETWORK): After debuting last week to record ratings, “The Boondocks” continues its third season with the sad tale of Thugnificent. Seems that the rap star’s latest album has tanked and now — horror of horrors — he needs to get a real job.
