Father-Son Tale: An interesting juxtaposition looms this fall on competing Thursday night shows. ABC’s new series “FBI: The Untold Stories” is doing a story on convicted murderer Charles Harrelson that at some point will air opposite NBC’s “Cheers,” which features his son, Woody Harrelson, as the bumbling bartender. The elder Harrelson, despite claims of innocence, is serving a life sentence for being the triggerman in the murder-for-hire slaying of a federal judge in San Antonio in 1979. He left his family when Woody was 7.
