TODAY'S MIGHT-SEES

"On the Waterfront" (1954), 2 p.m., Turner Classic Movies. This may be the best-acted movie of all time. Marlon Brando won an Academy Award as an embattled dock worker. Eva Marie Saint won in support. Three supporting actors — Rod Steiger, Lee J. Cobb and Karl Malden — were nominated, splitting the vote. (Edmond O'Brien won.) There were six more Oscars, ranging from best picture to best black-and-white cinematography. It's a great one, on a day focusing on an immense talent. There's much more Brando to enjoy: "Brando," a three-hour documentary, is at 11 a.m.; "Mutiny on the Bounty" is at 4 p.m.; "Apocalypse Now" airs at 7:15 p.m.

"Ghost Whisperer," 12:37 a.m. Saturday, CBS. Here's a rerun of the episode that linked Jay Mohr with his real-life wife, Nikki Cox. He plays Professor Payne, a semi-regular on the show. (Next month, he stars in a fun CBS comedy series, "Gary Unmarried.") She plays his former lover, paying a visit; his wife's ghost is not pleased.

OF NOTE

"America's Toughest Jobs," 7 p.m., NBC. Here's a quick rerun of the so-so Monday debut, with cubicle-dwellers working a fishing boat. Many are overwhelmed; one is ousted.

"Numb3rs," 8 p.m., CBS. After killing a serial killer, a former Marine has troubles. The law is after him; also, his family has been kidnapped.

"Swingtown," 9 p.m., CBS. Planning a surprise party for Janet, Susan is working with Janet's husband. The surprises are soon out of control.
