'Bridezillas' (Sun., 9PM, WE)
Move over bossy brides ... Carlos the Groomzilla is on the warpath, and like many a wedding 'zilla before him, Carlos is all about telling everyone else what to do, while not being willing to do much of the actual work himself.
That doesn't settle well with bride Mindy, but at least Carlos is going to show up at their wedding. That may not be the case with Megan, the domineering diva introduced two episodes ago. Megan's such a pill that friends of groom Cory urge him to reconsider whether to be with her 'til death do they part.
And we gotta agree ... to paraphrase a certain Tom Hanks big-screen classic, run, Cory, run!

'CMT's Biggest Redneck Wedding Ever'
(Sat., 8PM, CMT)
Ever? That's a lot to live up to, but Floridians Elaine and Bruce might just do it, with their redneck invitations (written on paper napkins), bridal party wear (tank tops and cut-off jeans) and, the pièce de résistance for any redneck shindig, the beer can archway.
'The 2008 Jerry Lewis MDA Telethon'

A Labor Day tradition, Lewis hosts his 43rd annual Muscular Dystrophy Association fundraising/variety show.
'Skins'
(Sun., 10PM, BBCA)

'Super Swank'

The new series that sheds light on where high rollers stay and play while on vacay. Tonight's locale: Vegas, baby, Vegas.
