Tube Notes

By Mike Hughes
Gannett News Service

Tonight's Must-See

"Third Watch," 9 p.m., NBC. Two TV stars from the 1970s — Henry Winkler ("Happy Days") and Kate Jackson ("Charlie's Angels") — guest in the start of this three-week story arc. Winkler plays the lawyer for Bosco's brother. His offbeat questions make Bosco suspicious. Jackson plays the lawyer's wife. Yokas suspects she's been abusing their daughter in their tattered apartment. Meanwhile, Monroe nudges back to duty after her gun was used in a shooting.

Of Note

"Four Weddings and a Funeral" (1994), 7 p.m., Pax. This light tale is episodic and erratic, yet enjoyable. For many Americans, it was their first sight of Hugh Grant doing his amiable bit as a bumbling, stumbling charmer. Richard Curtis wrote a clever script about a guy who can't make a commitment until he meets someone interesting at a wedding. The fine supporting cast includes Andie MacDowell, Kristin Scott Thomas and Rowan Atkinson, as a preacher.

"The George Lopez Show," 7 p.m., ABC. George's son has a friend with trouble at home. He moves in and more trouble follows.

"The Big House," 7:30 p.m., ABC. Kevin prepares an anniversary party for his aunt and uncle — learning a family secret.

"What I Like About You," 7:30 p.m., WB. When Holly gets a bundle of birthday money, she wants to blow it all on a party.

"Hope & Faith," 8 p.m., ABC. Kevin Sorbo, of "Hercules," guest stars as an overseas doctor (in the Doctors Without Borders program) who is a friend of Hope's husband.

"Married to the Kellys," 8:30 p.m., ABC. Tony Roberts and Michele Lee play Tom's parents, getting their first look at his life in Kansas. It's the final new episode of the season and could be the final one ever.

"Without a Trace," 9 p.m.. CBS. This transplanted rerun has a respected guy disappearing shortly after speaking at his high school reunion.
