Monday Monday Monday Monnndaaaaaaay…Mon-daaaaaay.

Sing that to the tune of the Celebrity Apprentice theme song because that's what we're currently doing on this glorious Monday night. The Bachelor is back! You can read our recap of that insanity right here, but it wasn't the only thing on tonight. Not only did we get more Celeb Apprentice, but both Gotham and Sleepy Hollow returned to us in great form! Without further ado, we present tonight's Rants and Raves.

RANT: Celebrity Apprentice: OK, we might have said last night that we want to hang out with Kevin Jonas and Gilbert Gottfried, but that does not mean we wanted them to be fired in order to have that dinner party. Gilbert was clearly a bit of a disaster in terms of his attempt at a pleasant health food tasting experience, but Kevin was only in trouble due to the fact that Geraldo Rivera is an asshat. Yeah, we said it. We hope we eventually find out what it takes for Trump to fire him before he wins this whole stupid season. Without that jerk, Kevin might have been able to stick around at least a little bit longer...

RANT: Celebrity Apprentice: We thought for sure that the women would fail miserably with Kate Gosselin at the helm of a technology-related project, so imagine our surprise when they did pretty darn well, without even falling prey to a few almost-catfights. Bravo, Team Infinity! Please please please continue to show Geraldo who's boss.

RAVE: Gotham: How great was it seeing Harvey Bullock run to his old pal Jim Gordon's side as soon as he needed help at Arkham Asylum? If you would have told us at the beginning of the season that these two would become BFFL's, we would have straight-up laughed in your face. But Bullock's clearly been missing Gordon as much we have! So cute, these two.

RANT: Gotham: Gotham, you cast the incredible talent of Morena Baccarin, of Firefly and Homeland fame, and yet you give her absolutely next to nothing to do besides get saved by Jim?! You better use her in big ways in the next few episodes (and we mean as more than just a moon-eyed love interest), otherwise, we're going to have some serious problems.

RANT: Gotham: We do not care about all the secondary mob guys battling to be the No. 1 mob guy, not at all. We only care about Fish Mooney and Penguin because hellooooo, they are the breakout stars of this show! Do not give us an entire storyline about people whose names we don't remember who were childhood friends but still want to kill each other or something like that, because we will put the show on mute until we see Fish or Penguin again. Sorry we're not sorry.

RANT: Sleepy Hollow: We just feel like Abbie and Ichabod shouldn't be so quick to trust new people, since, you know, Ichabod's own son turned out to be pretty evil. It was no surprise when Orion didn't turn out to be such a good guy either, though his evil-ness did provide a reason for Abbie and Ichabod to be on the same side as the Horseman, for once. It was confusing yet thrilling to our Bachelor-addled brains.

RANT: Sleepy Hollow: Ichabod, get out of that marriage! That woman has betrayed you yet again, and still you try to cling to whatever is left of your shattered relationship. She's clearly got some stuff to work through.

RAVE: Sleepy Hollow: Frank Irving is back! We're not surprised, but we are thrilled, regardless of the state he might be in. Let's hope he meets back up with Team Witness ASAP.

RAVE: Vanderpump Rules: Scheana and Shay's joint bachelor-bachelorette weekend is finally here and it's everything we hoped for and more. Yes, there's way too much drinking and a whole lot of gossiping going on. But we're in awe of Vail's sneaky phone skills as she broke into Kristen's phone to read her texts at dinner. Oh we can't wait for part 2!

What did you watch tonight? Feel free to rant and rave with us in the comments!
