It's hard to believe that the gatekeeper of pop music was once a crusty old newspaper columnist. "Ed Sullivan's Rock and Roll Classics: The Sixties," a 2009 special, presents clips from his groundbreaking TV series with appearances by the Rolling Stones, the Beatles, the Doors and Diana Ross. 8:30 p.m. Saturday, TPT, Ch. 2

House of Payne

"Payne" explores the life of charismatic golfer Payne Stewart, who won three major championships before perishing in a plane crash at age 42 in 1999. It's not a coincidence that the film is premiering during the week leading up to the U.S. Open in Pinehurst, N.C.,where Stewart had one of his most memorable victories. 4 p.m. Sunday, Golf Channel
