STEVE AUSTIN’S BROKEN SKULL CHALLENGE

CMT, Sundays at 8 p.m.

It’s hard to argue with “Steve Austin’s Broken Skull Challenge,’’ in part because Steve Austin is a thoroughly terrifying human being with whom you’d be stupid to argue, but also because his “Broken Skull Challenge’’ makes “American Ninja Warrior’’ look like “Double Dare.’’ Each week, a cast of amped-up cross-fitters, powerlifters, soldiers, personal trainers, and a generous sprinkling of complete lunatics scale walls, climb ropes, drag chains, swing sledgehammers, step on or over each other, and generally cause ol’ Steve to hoot and holler with glee as his protégés’ faces hit the dirt. It’s actually kind of adorable.

RUPAUL’S DRAG RACE

Logo, Mondays at 9 p.m.

When last we left RuPaul, she’d borrowed Michelle Visage’s phone to ask a mystery someone “How soon can you get here?’’ This, after telling two lackluster queens (two!) to sashay away. (The last and only other double elimination from “Drag Race’’ happened back in season five, when Honey Mahogany and Vivienne Pinay had to lip . . . sync . . . for . . . their . . . zzzzzzzzz. Sorry, dozed off thinking about them.) Who was she calling? Will she bring an eliminated queen back into the fold? Will every Boston gay praying for the return of our own Katya Zamolodchikova finally be free to unclench? I’m saying this three episodes in: I am LIVING for season eight. Calming down now.

SCHITT’S CREEK

Pop, Wednesdays at 8 p.m.

If you haven’t watched season one of “Schitt’s Creek,’’ the Canadian series now in its second season on Pop (and freshly renewed for a third), you can power-watch the whole thing on Pop’s website, and you should give it a shot. “Schitt’s’’ makes an unlikely addition to the otherwise resistible mix of titles on Pop’s lineup — “Unusually Thicke’’ not least among them. The father/son team of Daniel and Eugene Levy bring a lot of charm to this tale of a fallen video store magnate stuck living in the crummy jerkwater he once bought as a joke. (And if you can buy that as a joke, you’ll do just fine in “Schitt’s Creek.’’) It’s like “Green Acres,’’ only achier.

THE INTERNET RUINED MY LIFE

Syfy, Wednesdays at 10 p.m.

This new Syfy series gets up close and personal with people who have faced the perils of Internet fame. So far we’ve heard from activist Suey Park, whose life was turned upside-down when she launched the #CancelColbert hashtag, and Leigh Van Bryan, a man whose tweets were provocatively unfunny enough to land him in Homeland Security custody for two days. This week, Boston’s own Brianna Wu, whose tweets in support of women’s rights in the gaming industry made her the target of death threats, and a chef whose family was threatened after some online kerfuffle involving duck liver. They all make for harrowing tales about the intensity of Internet vitriol, but they also make me feel a lot better about that time I acci-tweeted that pic, which, for the record, was intended for my dermatologist.
