Home sweet home

Washed-up quarterback Tim Tebow shows off his coaching potential as the new co-host for "Home Free," the "Survivor"-inspired competition series in which 11 contestants test their abilities to steer wheelbarrows and handle nail guns. Tebow proves a first-string motivator, urging on the teams as they vie for $100,000 and a chance to give their personal heroes the keys to a new house. But aside from watching the former Heisman Trophy winner get back in the game, the contest's appeal is primarily limited to those who consider putting up wallboard a form of entertainment.

8 p.m. KMSP, Ch. 9

If you seek Amy

Talk-show host Andy Cohen looks back at four seasons of "Inside Amy Schumer" with this clip special. If Cohen's appearance isn't enough to prove that the comic has arrived, consider that the guest list in recent episodes has included "Hamilton" creator Lin-Manuel Miranda, Lena Dunham, Julianne Moore and Liam Neeson.

Helter skelter

If the second season of "Aquarius" is anything like the revival of "The X-Files," star David Duchovny will abandon his search for missing girls in the 1960s and try to beat the crowd for a good seat at Woodstock. Charlie Manson (Gethin Anthony) returns as the main nemesis to Duchovny's dogged detective.
