In Ron Howard’s 1984 Splash (KTLA Sunday at 6 p.m.), all its elements fuse and everything clicks as Tom Hanks falls in love with mermaid Daryl Hannah.

With Bill Murray as a multiphobic schmo and Richard Dreyfuss as his shrink, the 1991 What About Bob? (ABC Sunday at 9 p.m.) should have been a classic comedy. It’s far from that, but there are some laughs anyway.

The ace in the hole of Peter Weir’s effortlessly engaging 1990 love story Green Card (KTLA Monday at 8 p.m.) is Gerard Depardieu. He’s a soulful sometime composer whose need of a green card brings him into the Manhattan home and then into the heart of skittish Andie MacDowell, who needs a spouse to hold on to her cherished Upper East Side apartment.

Hot Shots! (Fox Monday at 8 p.m., Friday at 8 p.m.), director Jim Abrahams and writer Pat Proft’s 1991 parody of the bombastic “Top Gun,” by and large successfully tosses gags at the audience like there’s no tomorrow. Charlie Sheen stars.

Look Who’s Talking Too (ABC Monday at 9 p.m.) is a laborious 1990 sequel to the 1989 hit with John Travolta as a dancin’ fool hunk, Kirstie Alley as a workaholic unwed mother--and Bruce Willis as the voice of Baby Mikey.

Highly implausible but intermittently entertaining, the 1987 Suspect (KTLA Tuesday at 8 p.m.) stars Cher as a Washington public defender trying to help a prime suspect in a killing--and getting a highly illegal assist from slick jury member Dennis Quaid.

Tremors (NBC Friday at 9 p.m.), a jocular, good-time 1990 monster movie with surprises up its sleeve and a comedy-Western sensibility, stars Kevin Bacon and Fred Ward, with a hilarious acting turn by country singer Reba McIntire.

The slick, violent 1990 Kindergarten Cop (NBC Saturday at 8 p.m.) unveiled the kinder, superficially gentler Arnold Schwarzenegger as an undercover police officer who winds up teaching little kids as part of his job.

The 1990 black comedy Air America (KTLA Saturday at 8 p.m.) stars Mel Gibson and Robert Downey Jr. as pilots in the CIA’s secret airline operating in Laos in 1969. As long as it is racking up its absurdist points, it’s a freewheeling, sporty entertainment; ultimately, however, it fatally lacks focus.

The 1991 Columbo: Death Hits the Jackpot reprises on ABC Saturday at 8 p.m.

KCET’s Saturday night double feature presents two of the finest European films of the ‘80s, both dealing subtly with Nazi evil: Louis Malle’s 1987 Au Revoir les Enfants (at 9 p.m.) and Istvan Szabo’s 1981 Mephisto (at 10:45 p.m.).
