Happy Fall Back! Here's what's on television for tonight, Saturday, November 6!
The Wonder Years, Doogie Howser, Magnum, The Equalizer, Head of the Class, Dynasty... Tonight's Top Pick is yet another remake of an '80s property: Highway to Heaven. The Michael Landon series is being remade for a series of Lifetime movies starring singer-actress Jill Scott as an angel.
Elsewhere, League of Legends comes to television, Kieran Culkin is Live, Shawn Johnson has a Line, Danger Force goes to space, Academia preps for the heroes and the Paranormal Liberation Front, Oxygen profiles 911 dispatchers, and Decades asked you not to tell me that.
