Your ad here J.B. Smoove ("Curb Your Enthusiasm") helps shine the light on "The CLIOs: The World's Best Commercials" (7 p.m. KARE, Ch. 11). For the uninitiated, CLIOs are the advertising world's version of the Oscars, except the Oscars are presented by movie stars and the CLIOs are honored by, um, J.B. Smoove.

Lunch counter Green Bay and Minneapolis are back at war -- and this time it's serious.

May the best bites win.

Sibling rivalry gets taken to the next level in "WakeBrothers" (10 p.m. MTV), a docu-series about Phil and Bob Soven, professional wakeboarders who compete on the water -- and everywhere else.
