From Deseret News archives:
This weekend on TV
College football: Air Force at 14th-ranked Utah (1 p.m., Ch. 14); Utah State at Nevada-Las Vegas (8 p.m., Ch. 24)
Survivor: Vanuatu (7 p.m., Ch. 2) and The Apprentice (7 p.m., Ch. 5): It's dueling repeats (from Thursday) of producer Mark Burnett's two reality shows, the latter cribbed from the former.
Hustle (7 p.m., ESPN): This is a not-very-good TV movie about a bad man Pete Rose. Concentrating on his misdeeds in the late '80s when he was betting on everything including baseball this movie about Rose (Tom Sizemore) isn't going to help him get into the Hall of Fame. Nor is it going to win any Emmys, for that matter.
Runaway Jury (10:30 p.m., HBO): Entertaining 2003 legal thriller. (PG-13)
Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (9 p.m., Starz): Quentin Tarentino's violent 2003 action flick. (Rated R)
Sunday on TV
60 Minutes (6 p.m., Ch. 2): Fox News host Bill O'Reilly is profiled.
Nick News (6:30 p.m., Nickelodeon): The topic is Hispanic Heritage month.
Clubhouse (7 p.m., Ch. 2): Entertaining if fanciful new series about a 16-year-old boy who becomes batboy for a major-league team.
Extreme Makeover: Home Edition (7 p.m., Ch. 4): This two-hour edition features a big makeover for a widower with eight kids. (Second-season premiere)
American Dreams (7 p.m., Ch. 5): J.J. survived the firefight in Vietnam will he survive the news that his ex-girlfried is pregnant? (Third-season premiere)
Charmed (7 p.m., Ch. 30): "Buffy" and "Angel" veteran Charisma Carpenter guest stars as a demonic seer.
Revenge of the Middle-Aged Woman (8 p.m., Ch. 2): Christine Lahti competes with herself (see "Jack & Bobby"), playing a woman who remakes herself after her husband leaves her for a younger woman in this entertaining TV movie.
Jack & Bobby (8 p.m., Ch. 30): Grace (Christine Lahti again) forces Bobby into an gifted program at school.
Law & Order: Criminal Intent (8 p.m., Ch. 5): A controversial deejay is found dead. (Fourth-season premiere)
Wife Swap (9 p.m., Ch. 4): A "preview" of this series (which will be seen Wednesdays at 9 p.m.) in which wives swap families for two weeks and, hopefully, everybody learns something about themselves. This oddly enthralling reality series is not mean-spirited like the Fox ripoff, "Trading Spouses."
Crossing Jordan (9 p.m., Ch. 5): Jordan and Bug are trapped in a traffic tunnel when a blackout hits. (Fourth-season premiere)
The Wire (10 p.m., HBO): Electioneering interferes with the investigation.
