What's On Tonight (Sunday): Escape plan

The Great Escaper

Sunday funday! Here's what's on television for tonight, Sunday, November 23!

Our Top Pick tonight is The Great Escaper (PBS, 9 p.m.). This movie import is the final roles for the late Glenda Jackson and (presumably) the final role for Michael Caine, both screen legends. While this played theatrically elsewhere, it premieres stateside on public television. Inspired by a true story, the story finds WWII vet Caine escaping his care home to travel to the 70th Anniversary of the D-Day Landings in France.

Elsewhere, Malory Towers closes down, Billy the Kid meets his end, Talamasca must keep secrets, tube tops and Burgers, content Loves LA, and Friends discovery a new realm.
