Series
Charmed (8 p.m., WB) reruns two episodes back-to-back. Prue falls under the spell of a seductive bad guy. If this seems like a cheesy way to spend an evening in front of the tube, remember -- your alternative is the Republican Convention. Or, there's always Big Brother (8 p.m., CBS). Clint Eastwood is profiled on The Directors (8 p.m., Encore).
Specials
The documentary Without Lying Down: Francis Marion and the Power of Women in Hollywood (8 p.m., Turner Classic Movies) tells the story of the woman who, in the early 1930s, was the highest-paid screenwriter ("The Champ," "Dinner at Eight") in Hollywood. Marion's story is interwoven with a look at some of Hollywood's other early female filmmakers. Uma Thurman and Kathy Bates narrate.
