"Mystic Pizza" (8 p.m., ABC) wasn't Julia Roberts' first film (does anybody remember "Blood Red"?), but the one that set her on the road to superstardom. This happened in 1988, which some may say is evidence that time flies.
Sort of the Smarty Jones of his day, Seabiscuit had been pretty much forgotten until the book that led to this 2003 movie, "Seabiscuit" (8 p.m., HBO) came along. Tobey Maguire, Jeff Bridges and Chris Cooper star.
D.B. Cooper, a hijacker who parachuted out of a jetliner in 1971 with $200,000 he got by threatening to blow up the plane, became the stuff of legend when he disappeared. While "Flight from Justice" (8 p.m., Discovery Channel) promises to "shine new light" on the mystery, it seems likely that any undiscovered evidence was buried in the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens.
The always-reliable Bill Murray stars as a jet-lagged actor who encounters a much younger but equally adrift fellow American (Scarlett Johansson) in Tokyo. "Lost in Translation" (9 p.m., Starz) follows the friendship that ensues helps them deal with an unfamiliar culture and sheds light on their individual situations. This 2003 film was directed by Sofia Coppola.
Twin brothers Hank and Dean Venture regularly find themselves up to their elbows in peril, encountering zombie mummies, crazed alligators and more. But they're neither brave nor smart, which would put them at a disadvantage if "The Venture Brothers" (11 p.m., Cartoon Network) weren't a silly cartoon series -- sort of an edgy update of "Jonny Quest" with goofballs like Scooby-Doo and Shaggy thrown in.
