Roger Federer, the greatest male tennis player of all time, may be a tenderfoot in the woods, but he comes through like a champ in a new edition of "Running Wild With Bear Grylls," in which our amiable tour guide uses the athlete's equipment (rackets for snowshoes?) to put his guest at ease. Their pingpong match high in the Swiss Alps is almost as thrilling as a Grand Slam final.

Emotional rescue
"The Ronnie Wood Show" is just a taping of a radio program, but the season premiere will still feel like an elegant affair for Beatles fans as Paul McCartney and Wood, the Rolling Stones guitarist with the rooster hairdo, spin their favorite oldies and swap backstage tales. Future guest DJs include Alice Cooper, Steve Cropper and Slash.
