Series
Cosby (8:30 p.m. Fri., CBS) folds after four seasons. What do you mean you never watched it? On Now and Again (9 p.m. Fri., CBS), Heather connects her friend at the museum to the insect-spread plague. Saturday Night Live (11:35 p.m. Sat., NBC) reruns the Julianna Margulies episode, notable for Margulies' acid-dipped impersonation of Elizabeth Hurley. Bender is recruited to be a mob enforcer on Futurama (7 p.m. Sun., Fox). A family vacation to Florida turns into a nonstop spring break bacchanal for Homer on The Simpsons (8 p.m. Sun., Fox). You can tell a series is in trouble when the stars have to be continuously bribed with directing opportunities to keep them interested. This week on The X-Files (9 p.m. Sun., Fox), David Duchovny directs a humorous episode (he also wrote it) in which Mulder and Scully see themselves played onscreen by a pair of Hollywood actors -- Garry Shandling and Tea (Mrs. Duchovny) Leoni. Vegas tiger-tamers Siegfried and Roy are profiled on E! True Hollywood Story (9 p.m. Sun., E!) -- this could be a keeper. Masterpiece Theatre (check local times, Sun., PBS) presents "Seeing Red," the true story of British actress Coral Atkins (Sarah Lancashire) who gave it all up to found a home for disturbed children.
Specials
Six finalists compete live in Wanna Be a VJ 3 Finals (2 p.m. Sat., MTV). The two-part miniseries Arabian Nights (8 p.m. Sun., ABC) is a special-effects laden spectacle about the fantastic yarns spun by Scheherazade (Mili Avital). With Dougray Scott, Rufus Sewell, Jason Scott Lee and John Leguizamo (as the genie). NBC follows up its miniseries "The '60s" with The '70s (8 p.m. Sun., NBC), a two-part trip through the decade most of us would rather forget. Brad Rowe, Vinessa Shaw, Guy Torry and Amy Smart star. With Peggy Lipton as Gloria Steinem. Your heinous '70s flashback continues with Take Me Home: The John Denver Story (9 p.m. Sun., CBS), a bio of the folkie who looked uncannily like the '70s smiley face. Chad Lowe -- last seen weeping as Oscar-winning wife Hilary Swank forgot to thank him at the podium -- has the title role.
