Holding out for a hero

The Avengers aren't the only superheroes teaming up — and driving each other crazy. In the new animated series "Teen Titans Go!" (6:30 p.m., Cartoon Network), our crime-fighting quintet learns that saving the day gets in the way of making sandwiches and playing video games.

Hearst so good

"Citizen Hearst" (7 p.m., Bio) could have been an in-depth documentary about William Randolph Hearst, one of journalism's most fascinating figures. Instead, it's a puff piece that all but avoids the publisher's controversial past and spends most of its two hours promoting its magazine division. A good newspaperman would demand a rewrite.

Girl on film

In "Ke$ha: My Crazy Beautiful Life" (10 p.m., MTV), the pop star attempts to prove she's way kookier than Lady Gaga. Or maybe she's just trying to keep the family on the payroll. Brother Lagan Sebert shot the documentary series over the course of two years.
