Followed by an Intimate Portrait (11 p.m., Lifetime) biography of Harriman, featuring footage from interviews with her and comments from those who knew her. A week-long All in the Family Marathon (9 p.m., Nick at Nite) begins with four hours of creator Norman Lear's favorite episodes from the groundbreaking sitcom.

In short, everything you already learned from watching "Monty Python's Flying Circus" reruns. Perfect Mary cuts class for the first time on 7th Heaven (8 p.m., WB). On Everybody Loves Raymond (9 p.m., CBS), Ray becomes paranoid waiting for Debra's revenge after he makes her the butt of his jokes while hosting a charity auction.
