America's most wanted

Whenever you see an NBC newsmagazine pop up on the schedule, it almost always means that a new show has bitten the dust. In this case, it's "Allegiance," which was canceled after five episodes. Instead, we get "Dateline: The Real Blacklist," which will try to play off the success of the James Spader drama. 7 p.m. KARE, Ch. 11

Dress for success

Come check out a Hollywood vintage shop, the Way We Wore, in "L.A. Frock Stars," a series about the celebrities who stop by to visit with the queens of designer fashion. Among the clients in this second season: burlesque artist Dita von Teese and actress Debi Mazar. 8 p.m. Smithsonian Channel

Public previews

Viewers looking for the next "Downton Abbey" or "Sherlock" may want to invest in "PBS Previews: The Best of Drama," a sneak peek of upcoming new shows including "Wolf Hall," starring Guthrie favorite Mark Rylance. 9:35 p.m. TPT, Ch. 2
