She books a flight to Berlin, taking Tony (Michael Weatherly) along for moral support. Meanwhile, the NCIS team, headed up by Jethro Gibbs (Mark Harmon), investigates the murder of a Mossad officer in Virginia. Co-starring Pauley Perrette.

‘Bingo’ Annette
Annette Funicello and Margaret Thatcher died on the same day, and not surprisingly Turner Classic Movies has beat everyone else with getting “Beach Blanket Bingo,” Funicello’s 1965 fluff classic, in front of eyeballs again. Kick back, turn on your transistor radios and watch Annette and Frankie Avalon cavort in the surf and act like silly, silly teenagers. This movie is so campy that Paul Lynde plays someone named Bullets.

Cancellation anxiety
It’s that time of year again, when seldom-watched TV shows get the ax, and no one is feeling the pressure like Sheldon (Jim Parsons) on “The Big Bang Theory.” His show is fine, but one of his favorite TV series gets canceled too soon and Amy (Mayim Bialik) tries to help him get over his compulsive need for closure. Meanwhile, Raj (Kunal Nayyar) discovers a secret about his new love interest, Lucy (Kate Micucci). Co-starring Johnny Galecki (above right).

Co-starring Chi McBride and Kevin Alejandro.

Diggle is determined to see his brother’s killer dead, with or without Ollie’s help. Meanwhile, Laurel (Katie Cassidy) takes drastic steps to protect a young witness, exacerbating friction between Oliver and Tommy (Colin Donnell).
