The Tuck Rule (8:30, ESPN) - The latest ESPN 30 for 30 documentary is about the Tuck Rule, without which Tom Brady wouldn’t have won his first playoff game – and who knows where his destiny might have gone from there. But, asserts the filmmaker, whether what happened on January 19, 2002 was the right call or a terrible call, divine providence or deep conspiracy, one thing is certain: “The life of Tom Brady, as well as the life of the Hall of Famer who hit him on the play, Brady’s college teammate Charles Woodson, was forever changed that night.” Directed by Ken Rodgers and Nick Mascolo. This is followed by the premiere of a series about Tom Brady, “Man in the Arena.”
The People vs. The Klan (9 p.m., CNN) - This new documentary series uses a mix of archival footage and present-day interviews to revisit the case of Michael Donald, a teenager murdered by the Ku Klux Klan on March 20, 1981, in Mobile, Alabama. The four-part series chronicles his family’s ongoing fight for racial justice. The first two parts air tonight and the final two parts air next Sunday.
Some programming descriptions are provided by networks.
