Back to Bayside

"Dancing With the Stars" contender Elizabeth Berkley gets to show off her early moves in a five-hour "Saved By the Bell" marathon (6 a.m. E!), which signals E!'s acquisition of the eternally young guilty pleasure. The show will air in a new two-hour morning block every weekday from 6 to 8 a.m.

Hope for heroes

"The Young and the Restless" (11 a.m. WCCO, Ch. 4) does its patriotic duty on Veteran's Day with a special episode that revolves around a Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) throwing a fundraiser for ex-military personnel while trying to get closer to her long-lost son who just completed a tour in Afghanistan.

A call for help

About 20 percent of all suicides in the United States are committed by former service members, a chilling fact that justifies the airing of "Crisis Hotline: Veteran Press 1" (8 p.m. HBO), an in-depth look at a nationwide call center based in Canandaigua, N.Y.
