What to Watch for week of DECEMBER 5

Still 'Wonderful' after all these years

SATURDAY

NATIONAL TREASURE!
8-10:59PM It's a Wonderful Life (NBC, TV-G) George Bailey realizes life would suck if he killed himself. Ah, crap — did I give away the ending?

9-11PM CodeBreakers (ESPN, TV-PG) The true story of West Point football players who got kicked out for cheating. Happy holidays, Army!

9-11PM Painkiller Jane (Sci Fi, TV-14-LV) Saw II's Emmanuelle Vaugier is a special-ops soldier turned superwoman-on-the-run following exposure to a biochemical weapon and The O.C.'s Tate Donovan. If this becomes a series, they'll need to up both the dialogue and Eric Dane's screen time. If not, we'll remember these bleeding-from-the-eyes scenes fondly. C+

11:30PM-1AM Saturday Night Live (NBC) Alec Baldwin hosts and Shakira is the musical guest. They should have lots to talk about.
