No exit

Comedian Jimmy Pardo hosts "Race to Escape," a new psychological game show in which two teams try to get out of themed rooms that range from a 1960s barbershop to a Chinese restaurant.

Little town blues

Before moving into the sequel to "Full House," Candace Cameron Bure makes time to tackle a small-town whodunit in "Real Murders: An Aurora Teagarden Mystery," the latest in a franchise based on the popular novels by Charlaine Harris. Marilu Henner plays the young detective's protective mother. 8 p.m. Sunday, Hallmark Movies & Mysteries

Wild, wild West

"Deadwood" creator David Milch offers commentary. 9 p.m. Sunday, AMC
