It’s corny to bring back old shows simply for nostalgia’s sake, but the name “Party of Five” (Freeform, 9 p.m.) is energized by a bold concept that reframes the five siblings from the 1994 saga as survivors in a contemporary milieu.

Brandon Larracuente plays the eldest, an aspiring musician who puts aside career aspirations to lead his brothers and sisters.

Elections have consequences even on “Vikings” (History, 10 p.m.).
A former patient resurfaces on “Chicago Med” (NBC, 8 p.m.); the boundaries are redrawn on “Chicago Fire” (NBC, 9 p.m.), and “Chicago P.D.” (NBC, 10 p.m.) awaits news of Halstead’s fate.
Are we in the mood for the kind of fake White House drama offered by “Tyler Perry’s The Oval” (BET, 9 p.m.)? I’m thinking I’d prefer “Man vs. Bear” (Discovery, 9 p.m.) if we can pick the man.
The thing about “1,000 lb Sisters” (TLC, 10 p.m.) – they can wear each other’s clothes!
