Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition, Platinum Hit, National Memorial Day Concert
Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition, 10 p.m., ABC
Remember when EM first started it was a plastic surgery show? Oh, those were some good times. Of course now there is the home renovation version, which is a mega-hit and keeps Kleenex sales going, and this new installment. In the debut tonight, “An ambitious 21-year-old woman who weighs nearly 400 pounds embarks on a one-year challenge in hope of losing weight.” I’m in.

This is Kara DioGuardi and Jewel’s new music-competition show. You will remember Kara from her brief, largely inarticulate stint on Idol, and Jewel from her terrific job helming Nashville Star. “Platinum Hit follows 12 up-and-coming musicians as they battle through a series of innovative songwriting challenges testing their creativity, patience and drive. From dance track to love ballad, every episode will feature a different theme that will require the contestants to write and perform lyrics from multiple genres.”
National Memorial Day Concert, 9 p.m., PBS (check listings)
