-- You could get a lot out of this special: 101 things, to be exact. Cable's TLC is back with a new medical-oddities special, "101 MORE Things Removed from the Human Body," which includes the surgical extraction of seemingly everything but the kitchen sink. The documentary includes on-scene video and recreations, as well as graphics, X-rays and other medical imagery to illustrate medical dilemmas confronting the doctors who treated these patients. Cases include two motorcycle riders who were impaled by the same metal rod, a woman who was speared by a live marlin, and a police officer who was impaled through the chest by a 2x6 board -- plus such sights as a living fly larva growing inside a woman's scalp and a patient stung by over 500 bees. Remarkably, everyone survived and is doing well. The program airs 8 p.m. tonight.

-- The TV One network explores the growing field of plastic surgery for African Americans in a documentary called "Black Don't Crack: The Cosmetic Surgery Debate." Airing 9 p.m. tonight, the film points out that, until recently, relatively few blacks have undergone cosmetic surgery procedures, partly for fear of being accused of trying to conform to the European ideal of beauty. It explores how an increasing number of black plastic surgeons and heightening interest in health and beauty have helped overcome the long-standing reluctance. Among the experts heard from: Dr. Rose Lewis, the first female black plastic surgeon; Essence magazine Beauty Director Mikki Taylor; and Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Anthony Griffin, who has been part of the surgery team on ABC's "Extreme Makeover." Launched in January 2004, TV One serves more than 28.4 million households with programming aimed at adult African-American viewers.

-- When Atlantic Richfield prospectors struck oil in Alaska's Prudhoe Bay in 1968, they stumbled upon the largest oil field ever discovered in North America. But getting that oil out of Alaska would take nine years, employ some 78,000 people, cost more than $8 billion and require threading 800 miles of steel pipe through America's most pristine wilderness -- plus court fights from environmentalists and opposition from Native Alaskans with ancestral land claims to settle. "American Experience" presents "The Alaska Pipeline," a one-hour documentary revisiting that epic project, Monday at 8 p.m. on PBS.
