“Tosh.0” begins its 12th and final season at 10 p.m. EDT Tuesday on Comedy Central, with host Daniel Tosh taking his last shots at viral videos and pop culture’s highs and lows.

Kim Cattrall is at the center of Fox’s “Filthy Rich,” a prime-time soap opera loaded with money and betrayal that debuts 9 p.m. EDT Monday, Sept. 21.
The premise: a Southern patriarch (Gerald McRaney) and head of a popular Christian TV network dies in a plane crash, which proves only shock No. 1 for his wife (Cattrall) and offspring.
