The chase is on

We're coming up on a fairly bizarre milestone: the 20th anniversary of accused murderer O.J. Simpson leading police on a crazy adventure down a Los Angeles freeway. "CNN Special Report: O.J. Bronco Chase" takes us back to June 17, 1994, when we as a nation were riveted to our TV screens. 8 p.m. CNN

Semi-strong medicine

Most of us can't afford to spend a summer in the Hamptons, which means we'll have to live vicariously through Dr. Hank and his friends in the Season 6 premiere of "Royal Pains," another one of USA's lighthearted series that are fairly well done, but almost instantly forgettable. 8 p.m. USA

Age is just a number

Sequels rarely live up to their predecessors, and "Red 2" is no exception, but it's still a hoot watching stars like Helen Mirren and Bruce Willis slide into their senior years packing heat. Anthony Hopkins and Catherine Zeta-Jones get on board this time. 9 p.m. HBO Signature
