Body parts

Burt Reynolds has had lots of famous lovers -- Dinah Shore, Sally Field, Loni Anderson -- but his most memorable relationship may be the one he had with his car from "Smokey and the Bandit." The two reunite in the second episode of "Celebrity Rides: Burt Builds a Bandit" (9 p.m. today, DIY), in which the beloved automobile gets a full body inspection. No word yet on whether the actor will get the same.

Fangs a lot

Richard Roeper, best known for sitting across the aisle from Roger Ebert, strikes out on his own to host "Bloodsucking Cinema" (7 p.m. Saturday, Starz), a tribute to the great vampires, including Lestat, Blade and Nicole Richie.

The cat's meow

If "25 Hottest Cougar Tales" (4 p.m. Saturday, E!) was airing on the Discovery Channel, we'd be prepared for an hour of cuddly cats. Since it's on E!, you can expect lots of dirt on how Demi Moore and Cameron Diaz snagged their younger lovers. This is the worst countdown idea since "John Goodman's 10 Favorite Salads."

Bull session

Richard Moll, best known as "Bull" on "Night Court," stars in "Headless Horseman" (8 p.m. Saturday, SCI), a contemporary take on "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow." It's way too late to offer casting advice, but Harry Anderson would make a great Ichabod Crane.
