Try to remember

A&E just won't let you forget "Unforgettable." After being canceled twice by CBS, the resilient procedural has found a new home on cable, with Poppy Montgomery returning as a detective who remembers every single detail, including whose turn it is to buy doughnuts. In an effort to lighten the mood, "Sister Act" scene stealer Kathy Najimy joins the cast as the team's new captain. 7 p.m. Friday, A&E

Dress code

A certain YouTube clan is skipping Black Friday to do some sprucing up around the house. "The Holderness Family Christmas Jammy Jam," featuring the multigenerational loved ones whose parody videos have been seen by more than 50 million people, requests that viewers watch in their favorite pair of pajamas. 7 p.m. Friday, UP

Score to settle

Andrea Bocelli's lifetime subscription to Rosetta Stone pays off in "Andrea Bocelli: Cinema," a concert in which the famed tenor slips into five different languages to perform movie songs both familiar ("Moon River") and more obscure ("Now We Are Free" from "Gladiator"). John Travolta and Ali MacGraw are among the film folks who show up to prove they got culture. 8 p.m. Friday, TPT, Ch. 2

Before he was great

The Minnesota History Center is on the case in "Mysteries at the Museum" as host Don Wildman examines an early edition of F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby," which, upon publication was underappreciated, in large part because it was initially rejected by Oprah's Book Club. 8 p.m. Friday, Travel Channel

As an eviction crisis has seemed increasingly likely this summer, everyone in the housing market has made the same plea to Washington: Send money — lots of it — that would keep renters in their homes and landlords afloat.
