“NIGHT OF TOO MANY STARS: AMERICA COMES TOGETHER FOR AUTISM PROGRAMS” (8 P.M., COMEDY CENTRAL): Comedian Jon Stewart hosts this benefit at New York’s Beacon Theatre. The special has a serious goal, but a comically offbeat approach — bringing together people you thought you’d never see on the same stage. Carly Rae Jepson, for example, sings “Call Me Maybe” with Harvey Keitel, and Bill O’Reilly debates Chris Matthews while inhaling helium. Among the stars appearing: Tom Hanks, Stephen Colbert, Tina Fey, Amy Poehler and Katy Perry.

“The Good Wife” (9 p.m., CBS): The “ER” reunion continues on “The Good Wife” as Maura Tierney returns in her guest role opposite series star Julianna Margulies. Tierney plays an Internet millionaire who questions her decision to support Peter Florrick’s (Chris Noth) campaign after a tawdry rumor circulates.
