Ted Kennedy is the subject of a new Biography (8 p.m. EST/9 PST, A&E). On 7th Heaven (8 p.m., WB), Mary doesn't tell her parents that she's been going to co-ed slumber parties and Lucy contemplates going all the way with Jordan. Male fantasy alert: Ally and Georgia are supposed to kiss or something on tonight's Ally McBeal (9 p.m., Fox). On Everybody Loves Raymond (9 p.m., CBS), Marie is alarmed by her and Frank's high cholesterol levels, so she begins preparing low-fat meals -- on Thanksgiving.
