7 p.m. “The Incredible Hulk”
This is the newer one, that has more action and less angst than the 2003 version. In this one, he just gets mad and turns into the Hulk. He doesn’t schedule a session with his therapist first. (2008) FX
8 p.m. “Holiday High School Reunion” The holidays are stressful enough without a high school reunion thrown in. On the plus side, the bulky sweater camouflages your beer gut nicely. (2012) FX
8 p.m. “Toy Story 3” In the latest sequel, the Woody, Buzz and the gang are donated to a preschool where they are abused, kicked and slobbered on. It’s basically like being a parent. (2010) Disney Channel.

A man magically transported to Mars discovers he has gained super strength but, at the same time, lost the ability to speak in coherent dialogue. (2012) Starz

Bring on the hate mail.


5 p.m. “The Opposite of Sex” Christina Ricci stars as a manipulative teen in this dark comedy. In real life, we don’t know what the opposite of sex is but we think it involves Bea Arthur. (1998) IFC.

We knew her when ...


8 p.m. “Mystic Pizza” A group of young women working at a pizzeria come of age in a seaside Connecticut town in a film that gives viewers a chance to see a young Julia Roberts with big ’80s hair, the glow of youth and the nose she was born with. (1988) ABC

Another era


8 p.m. “Mr. Mom” Laid off from his job, an automobile engineer takes over parenting responsibilities while his wife reenters the job market. It all seems kind of quaint now. If it happened now, the kids would simply be outsourced to India. (1983) PAX

Looking back
