“Brooklyn Nine-Nine” (8:30 P.M., FOX): Mary Lynn Rajskub (“24”) is the latest familiar face to drop in on “Brooklyn Nine-Nine.” She plays a gallery owner and Jake (Andy Samberg) thinks she just might be Boyle’s (Joe Lo Truglio) soul mate, so he tries to set them up.

“The Walking Dead” (9 p.m., AMC): So much for the Alexandria “Safe Zone” being an oasis of tranquility amid the zombie apocalypse. That all fell apart during last season’s traumatic finale when Rick (Andrew Lincoln) killed Pete in the middle of a town meeting that went horribly awry. Now, as Season 6 gets underway, Rick has a lot of wary eyes looking his way.
