Playing the TV Field

Share

TV viewers looking for alternatives to Super Bowl XXIV will find the pickings similar to most Sunday afternoons: syndicated series, reruns and mediocre old movies. The film fare includes “Breakout” (Cinemax at 2) and “Twins” (Showtime at 2). At 5, Oscar-winner “The Last Emperor” begins on HBO. Prime Ticket schedules a Senior Professional Baseball Assn. game at 2. ESPN offers coverage of a men’s professional skiing race at 2 and the 1987 Sugar Ray Leonard-Marvin Hagler championship fight at 3. And KMEX Channel 34 broadcasts what most of the rest of the world considers a football game: a taped soccer match between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid at 2:30.
