To tell it on the mountain

Jeff Young can't talk to the animals, but he's the next best thing to Dr. Doolittle in "Dr. Jeff: Rocky Mountain Vet," a 10-part series that looks at working as a veterinarian around the Mile High City. 9 p.m. Saturday, Animal Planet

Yesterday's news

Brat Packer Rob Lowe looks back on His Decade (or at least what he can remember of it) in "The 2000s: A New Reality," a two-part documentary featuring interviews with Dick Cheney, Perez Hilton and Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger. 8 p.m. Sunday and Monday, National Geographic Channel

Let's talk about sex

True love may not run smoothly on "Masters of Sex," which returns for its third season, but it appears to be chugging along just fine off-screen for cute-couple-of-the-moment Michael Sheen and Sarah Silverman, who returns in a recurring role. Josh Charles, who threw one heck of a tantrum on "The Good Wife," joins the cast. 9 p.m. Sunday, Showtime
