TODAY'S MUST-SEE

"The Sound of Music" (1965), 7-11 p.m., ABC Family; or "The Wizard of Oz" (1939), 2-3:45 p.m., Turner Classic Movies. As the Easter weekend begins, family musicals collide. We'd recommend "Oz," because its story is more clever and for a practical reason: "Sound of Music" also airs at 7 p.m., ABC Family, Saturday and Sunday. Still, both have soaring music and great visuals.

TODAY'S MIGHT-SEE

Basketball, 1-6 p.m., CBS. It's the second day of the college basketball tournament, with action everywhere.

OF NOTE

"King Arthur" (2004), 5:30, FX. The legend is retold with Clive Owen as Arthur, Ioan Gruffudd as Lancelot and Keira Knightley as Guinevere.

Skating, 1:30-5 p.m., ESPN. Here are the finals for ice dancing and the short program for women.

"Grey's Anatomy," 7 p.m., ABC. In this rerun, Cristina realizes the Burke romance is over; his mom (Diahann Carroll) picks up his things. Also, there was an apartment fire, and Callie is overwhelmed.

"Til Death," 7 p.m., Fox. New episodes are three weeks away, but this comedy returns to the lineup with reruns. Tonight, Eddie twice flubs a birthday present for his neighbor.

"Titanic" (1997), 5-9 p.m., TNT. Here's the night's third classic. Visually powerful, it adds a fine romance of opposites.

"The Return of Jezebel James," 7:30 p.m., Fox. Coco has her first gynecologist visit in years. Also, her sister scrambles to sign a teen author.

"House," 8 p.m., Fox. In this rerun, an older doctor (Joel Grey) says he wants to die.

"20/20," 8-10 p.m. ABC. Prostitutes, now back in the news, are interviewed.

"In Treatment," 6:30 p.m. (repeating at 10:35 p.m.), HBO. Last week (rerunning at 6), Paul learned his wife had more secrets. This time, she stays home; his therapist (Dianne Wiest) has revelations.
