WEEKEND TV : Judge Thomas Testimony on C-SPAN
If you need a break from grass-court tennis or holiday weekend sun, it’s best to have cable.
Anyone interested in an in-depth look at Supreme Court nominee Judge Clarence Thomas might want to check out C-SPAN today between 9:50 a.m. and 4 p.m. The public affairs network plans to repeat Thomas’ entire testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee given in February, 1990, following his nomination to the U.S. Court of Appeals. C-SPAN 2 will repeat this program Sunday at 4:45 p.m.
The merits of the Thomas nomination will also be debated on “The McLaughlin Group” today at 4 p.m. on Channel 4. The program will also include talk about the recession and the Iraqi nuclear threat.
As Yugoslavia teeters on the brink of civil war, Arts & Entertainment debuts a new series, “The Birth of Europe,” Sunday at 6 p.m. and again at 10 p.m. The seven-part documentary examines Europe’s development and the foundation of the Western World.
Sunday also marks the return of HBO’s comedy series “Dream On,” which begins a run of 14 new episodes at 10 p.m. Guest stars Tom Berenger, Mimi Rogers and David Bowie join regulars Brian Benben and Wendie Malick in Sunday’s hourlong season premiere.
