Live free, eat hard

Twin Cities resident food expert Andrew Zimmern shares his bizarre tips on "Live With Kelly and Michael" (9 a.m., KSTP, Ch. 5). Maybe in honor of fellow guest Bruce Willis, Zimmern will whip up a plate of yippee-ki-yay casserole.

Dr. Greene goes dark

"ER" veteran Anthony Edwards returns to the small screen for "Zero Hour" (7 p.m., KSTP, Ch. 5), a conspiracy-driven new drama that's clearly the network's attempt to appeal to "Lost" fans.

Make a new plan, Stan

Does Valentine's Day have you down? Commiserate with others in the special "50 Ways to Leave Your Lover" (8 p.m., Investigation Discovery), hosted by Tia Carrere, who is totally unfamiliar with the notion of getting dumped.
