Flipped Off (9pm Sat, A&E)
Russell Hantz is the self-proclaimed mastermind who nevertheless got voted off Survivor three times.

United Stats of America (9pm Tue, History)
Standup comedian brothers Randy and Jason Sklar try to hook the viewing public with a lively show about statistics. They look for interesting trends, then travel around the country to uncover the stories behind the numbers.
The premiere investigates America’s changing shape. The Sklars reveal that we used to be the tallest country in the world but are now the fattest, with the average waistline expanding from 26 to 34.
