How the Beatles Rocked the Kremlin (9 p.m. Monday, WPBT-PBS 2) -- Forget NATO and nuclear deterrents and all that stuff: This documentary says it was really the Beatles that won the Cold War. Plus, how are you going to pass up a chance to hear a Russian Beatles cover band perform its hit Khrushchev Era Rock?
Starz Inside: Sex and the Cinema (10 p.m. Tuesday, Starz) -- Any documentary that somehow manages to find common ground in North by Northwest and American Pie has got to be worth watching. A study of America's sexual liberation (or, depending on how you see it, debauchment) through what we watched on the big screen.
Secrets of the Dead (8 p.m. Wednesday, WPBT-PBS 2) -- In 1944, an American bomber crippled by Japanese anti-aircraft fire crashed in the jungles of Borneo. Hooray! The crew is rescued by jungle tribesmen. But what are you guys doing with those cooking pots? Uh-oh -- I just noticed that the title of this episode of the PBS documentary series is The Airmen and the Headhunters. . . .
Note: Days and times for PBS shows are for the Miami area, and may differ elsewhere.
