Perhaps you don’t have the stomach for a new series about a billionaire who rides into town and tries to fix something without any experience. In the case of “APB” (Fox, 9 p.m.), at least the billionaire is Justin Kirk, who adds some humor to his role as a tech guy who wants to demonstrate how gadgetry can help a troubled Chicago precinct solve crime. It’s another deadly cop drama, yes, loaded down with the kind of fascination with computer screen and gadgetry that sinks most of the fare at rival CBS. But the first episode, at least, works well enough as entertainment to stave off the inevitable drones-kill-your-children now arguments.
A more accurate, sobering assessment of criminal justice can likely be found in Kristi Jacobson’s documentary “Solidary: Inside Red Onion State Prison” (HBO, 10 p.m.), a look inside an supermax prison in Virginia.
The nuances of gender identification are sensitively explored in a new documentary “Gender Revolution: A Journey with Katie Couric” (National Geographic, 9 p.m.).
A new “Independent Lens” (PBS, 10 p.m., check local listings) looks at how one of the first silent features, D.W. Griffith’s 1915 “The Birth of a Nation” set the tone for Hollywood stereotyping, not to mention glorification of the Klan, which was dying out before this film revived them.
The first post-Super Bowl episode of “24: Legacy” (Fox, 8 p.m.) actually ended at 12:00 midnight, so it’s fitting that tonight’s second episode starts at 1:00 (albeit p.m.).
Confusion! Awkwardness! Enigma! It’s all there on “The Bachelor” (ABC, 8 p.m).
Martians invade on “Supergirl” (the CW, 8 p.m.).
A boat seeking sunken treasure on “Scorpion” (CBS, 10 p.m.) explodes and its crew is surrounded by sharks on an episode titled “Sharknerdo.”
Terrorists use a new method to get information on “Quantico” (ABC, 10 p.m.). I’m guessing it’s not flattery.
Can a Presidential call of prayer for “Celebrity Apprentice” (NBC, 8 p.m.) help ratings? At least Jessica Alba and Tyra Banks show up.
The “Timeless” (NBC, 10 p.m.) go back to 1927 Paris in time to welcome Charles Lindbergh on his cross-country flight.
Pairing the new “Superior Donuts” (CBS, 9 p.m.) next to cupcake-making “2 Broke Girls” (CBS, 9:30 p.m.) makes it seem like the network is creating an all pastry comedy hour.
On “Jane the Virgin” (The CW, 9 p.m.), Jane and Michael re-create their first date.
On “Beyond” (Freeform, 9 p.m.), Holden and Charlie go on a road trip.
Lenny and Sister Marry share a loss on “The Young Pope” (HBO, 9 p.m.).
The alphabetical 31 Days of Oscar films on Turner Classic Movies goes from the Cs to the Ds with “The Constant Nymph” (6:45 a.m.), “Cool Hand Luke” (8:45 a.m.), “Coquette” (11 a.m.), “The Corn is Green” (12:30 p.m.), “The Corsican Brothers” (2:30 p.m.), “Crossfire” (4:30 p.m.), “The Crowd” (6 p.m.), “A Cry in the Dark” (8 p.m.), “Days of Wine and Roses” (10:15 p.m.), “The Deer Hunter” (12:30 a.m.), “Deliverance” (3:45 a.m.) and “Designing Woman” (5:45 a.m.).
NBA action includes Cleveland at Washington (TNT, 7 p.m.) and San Antonio at Memphis (TNT, 9:30 p.m.).
Hockey has St. Louis at Philadelphia (NBC Sports, 7 p.m.).
Men’s college basketball includes Louisville at Virginia (ESPN, 7 p.m.), Holy Cross at Bucknell (CBS Sports, 7 p.m.), Kansas at Kansas State (ESPN, 9 p.m.) and Jackson State at Southern (ESPNU, 9 p.m.).
Women’s games include Louisville at Notre Dame (ESPN2, 7 p.m.), Texas at Baylor (Fox Sports 1, 8 p.m.) and UCLA at Stamford (ESPN2, 9 p.m.).
