Top TV picks for March 18-20: 'Pee-Wee's Big Holiday,' 'Madame Secretary,' 'Ice Age,' 'The Passion'

Certain Pee-wee Herman fans won't be satisfied until their bow-tied hero becomes the next James Bond. Until that blessed day, they'll have to settle for "Pee-wee's Big Holiday," a new feature film shepherded by Judd Apatow, a director who knows a few things about men who refuse to grow up. It's a big week for the movie's star, Paul Reubens, who will also pop up as the Penguin's dad in Monday's episode of "Gotham."

In "Madame Secretary," Elizabeth (Tea Leoni) takes time away from negotiating for world peace to take her daughter on a tour of college campuses. Let's hope she doesn't take a page from an early "Sopranos" episode with the same theme and throttle a tour guide who can't stop talking about Donald Trump.

New Orleans has apparently swept away enough beads from its Mardi Gras festivities to accommodate "The Passion," a live musical that will take place throughout the Crescent City. The star-studded affair includes Trisha Yearwood as the Virgin Mary, Seal as Pontius Pilate and Chris Daughtry as Judas. Confession will be offered during commercial breaks.

"Ice Age: The Great Egg-Scapade" keeps alive a franchise that shows no signs of melting with Ray Romano, John Leguizamo and Queen Latifah returning to the animated herd. This time around, a babysitting service turns into a rescue mission when an evil pirate bunny (Seth Green) sets his sights on his version of a nest egg.
