"My Name is Earl," 8:30 p.m., NBC. If you haven't started watching this popular new show, this is the perfect night to jump in. NBC — reluctant to throw new episodes against the World Series — reruns the funny pilot. Jason Lee plays a guy who decides to make up for a life of misdeeds. That won't be easy, especially since few of his friends have any experience at doing good. Filmed without an audience, "Earl" is quirky and definitely not for everyone. In its own odd way, though, it's sometimes hilarious.

"Human Trafficking" conclusion, 6 p.m., Lifetime. If you missed the first half of this miniseries yesterday, catch it at 4 p.m., and skip the next paragraph. That part ended with heartbreak. An earnest agent (Mira Sorvino) had rescued a Czech woman from sexual slavery only to have her killed by a sniper. Now the agent, who is a Russian native, makes herself a target. It's superb work by Sorvino, in a powerful and involving film.
