Monk (6 a.m.-6 a.m. ET, Sleuth) -- Of course. There's always a Monk marathon. No matter what. No matter when.

Law & Order: SVU (10 a.m.-midnight ET, USA) -- Of course. There's always an L&O marathon. No matter what. No matter when.

Taboo (noon-6 a.m. ET, NatGeo) -- Strange rituals, body modification, torturous religions, mind-altering drugs. What's weird here or there, is normal there or here, around the world.

Seven Ages of Rock (1-8 p.m. ET, VH1 Classic) -- Chart the chronology of rock (post-rock and roll) from the late '60s (The Who, Cream) through art rock and punk rock to heavy metal, stadium rock and alternative sounds (REM, Nirvana).

Masterpiece Classic (1:30-10 p.m. ET, WNET/13; check other PBS channel listings) -- New York's public TV station counters with a Jane Austen three-fer: Persuasion, Sense and Sensibility and Emma.

30 for 30 (5:30-10 p.m. ET, ESPN) -- A basketball-centric trio of documentaries from the acclaimed series: Winning Time: Reggie Miller vs. the New York Knicks (5:30), Jordan Rides the Bus (7 p.m.), and June 17, 1994 (9 p.m.), which includes the Knicks-Rockets NBA final among the events interrupted by O.J. Simpson's infamous "slow speed chase."

Brick City (4 p.m.-midnight ET, Sundance) -- This Peabody-winning docuseries is like The Wire writ real, as Newark mayor Cory Booker and other urban officials struggle to reinvigorate their ailing New Jersey metropolis.

Roseanne (7 p.m.-12:30 a.m. ET, TV Land) -- We tend to forget how really great this '80s-'90s ABC sitcom could be, how unflinching in its view of blue-collar struggles and intrafamily relationships. There's certainly nothing approaching its honesty on the air today.

Pawn Stars (8 p.m.-4 a.m. ET, History) -- There's family drama here, too, as this docusoap tracks the daily doings at a Las Vegas pawn shop appraising many historic objects. TVWW contributor Ronnie Gill assesses this surprise hit in her column here.

Sunrise and Wings (Sunday at 8 and 10 p.m. ET, Turner Classic Movies) -- My personal favorite option features two of the most dynamic-looking Hollywood movies ever, made at the height of silent movies' visual mastery, just as sound was taking over and "talkies" would effectively extinguish that exquisite art form. Both the culture clash of Sunrise, from Nosferatu director F.W. Murnau, and the aerial epic Wings, from "Wild Bill" Wellman (The Public Enemy), won Academy Awards in that trophy's first year of presentation (1927-28).
