When Fish Attack 3
5 p.m. & 9 p.m., Discovery

Police Women

He Touched Me: The Gospel Music of Elvis Presley
9:30 p.m., KCTS
This documentary special looks at the success of Elvis’s non-secular recordings (several of which garnered him Grammy Awards when none of his rock hits ever did) and what drew the singer to that genre of music, through interviews and archival video with never-before-seen offstage gospel performances.

In Plain Sight

A former New Orleans drag queen risks his new life in witness protection after seeing a murder and refusing to give up cross-dressing despite the danger of being recognized. Meanwhile, Marshall announces his engagement to Abigail, and Mary receives a surprise visitor.

The Burn With Jeff Ross
10:30 p.m. & 3:30 a.m., Comedy
For years, Jeff Ross, known as “the meanest man in comedy,” has crushed the biggest of egos with cutting putdowns at the Friar’s Club roasts. Now, in this six-episode series, the world of pop culture is his target, as he — and his celebrity guests — skewer the hottest topics of the day, as well as “public enemies” (think meter readers and the paparazzi) and the recently departed. Rest assured, no one and nothing is sacred to the “Roastmaster General.”
