Basic cable’s biggest show “The Closer” joins a couple of USA’s sturdy hits “White Collar” and “Psych” back to the air this week.

Baseball fans get the Home Run Derby tonight on ESPN, followed by the game on Fox Tuesday. There are five Braves players on the National League team, though Jason Heyward, the rookie phenom voted to be in center field, can’t play due to injury. (A possible sixth, Billy Wagner, said no because he was invited at the last second and decided to stick with his original vacation plans.)

Among new shows, there’s some sex (as in TLC’s “Strange Sex” Sunday), a few X-Files-type stories (SyFy’s “Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files” Thursday), a psychic’s life (SyFy’s “Mary Knows Best” Thursday), more cake stories (TLC’s “DC Cupcakes” Friday), a cop drama (TNT’s “Rizzoli and Isles” tonight) and a spy series (USA’s “Covert Affairs” Tuesday).

And MTV is finally killing off “The Hills” after six long seasons. Kristin invites Brody to her going away party. B-bye!
