This week’s TV Movies

---

SUNDAY

Long before YouTube, there was the boob tube. “Laverne & Shirley,” “One Day at a Time,” “Murphy Brown” and “Pee-wee’s Playhouse” are among the small-screen favorites feted at the “TV Land Awards 2012.” Kelly Ripa hosts. (TV Land, 9 p.m.)

Hard to find that perfect match … harder still when you’re just a toddler and your interests include things like world domination. But Stewie (Seth MacFarlane) may have met his dream gal (Oscar winner Cate Blanchett) on a new

“Family Guy.” (Fox, 9 p.m.)

MONDAY

Charlie Harper’s back from the dead! OK, so it’s only Charlie’s ghost. And said spirit is being played not by the less-than-dearly departed Charlie Sheen but rather guest star Kathy Bates (above, with Jon Cryer) on a new

“Two and a Half Men.” (CBS, 9 p.m.)

TUESDAY

Where were you in ’92? The documentary “Uprising: Hip Hop & the LA Riots” talks with celebrities as well as everyday people for a street-level look, 20 years after, at some of the darkest days in our fair city’s history. Snoop Dogg narrates.

(VH1, 9 p.m.)

WEDNESDAY

Think “Made in the U.S.A” is just an advertising slogan from better times long gone by? Well, think again. Host Yul Kwon celebrates a renaissance in American manufacturing on the conclusion of the four-part series

“America Revealed.” (KOCE, 10 p.m.)

THURSDAY

The Internet is not just for saying mean and nasty things to people you’ll never meet. It also provides places where those struggling with life-threatening conditions can find aid and comfort, as detailed in the documentary

“65_RedRoses.” (OWN, 9 and 10:30 p.m.)

FRIDAY

When “The West Wing’s” Mary McCormack first took on the role of a U.S. Marshal on the witness-protection procedural “In Plain Sight,” we seriously considered turning state’s evidence. But now she’s giving up badge and Glock as that cable hit ends its five-season run.

(USA, 10 p.m.)

SATURDAY

Jake Gyllenhaal, below, is a man on a mission — only the mission isn’t quite what it seems, and he may not be the man he thinks he is — in the mind-bending 2011 thriller “Source Code.” Vera Farmiga and Michelle Monaghan also star. (Showtime, 9 p.m.)
