A Brady Bunch Marathon (beginning 8:30 p.m., Nickelodeon) is Nick at Nite's way of welcoming the show to the Nick at Nite lineup. Eight episodes air each night through Friday. That's way too much Brady for me. The new cable movie Final Justice (9 p.m., USA) stars Annette O'Toole as a woman who kidnaps the lawyer who successfully defended her gay brother's murderer. The Larry Sanders Show (11 p.m., HBO) has aired its last original episode, but you can catch up with the entire final season beginning tonight with four consecutive shows. Reruns air in late night through Wednesday. In preparation for its upcoming miniseries "More Tales of the City," Showtime is running the six-part Tales of the City (11 p.m., Showtime), the 1994 adaptation of Armistead Maupin's lively saga of gay and straight San Francisco in the swinging 1970s. Laura Linney, Olympia Dukakis, Paul Gross, Chloe Webb and Thomas Gibson star. This miniseries originally aired on PBS, which declined to fund the sequel.
Karl Malden is the subject of a new Biography (8 p.m. EDT/9 PDT, A&E). Ray and Debra collaborate, with much disharmony, on a children's book on a rerun of Everybody Loves Raymond (8:30 p.m., CBS). Ally and Georgia handle an age-discrimination suit brought by a fired anchorwoman on a rerun of Ally McBeal (9 p.m., Fox). On a new Michael Hayes (10 p.m., CBS), a politician pushing family values is blown up in a car bombing and the investigation reveals he hadn't been practicing what he preached. The Practice (10 p.m., ABC) reruns the episode in which John Larroquette plays a crafty murder suspect. Bobcat Goldthwait is the host for the new nightly variety show Bobcat's Big Ass Show (10:30 p.m., FX), which doesn't have anything to do with donkeys.

In the wake of Phil Hartman's passing, NBC is expected to continue production of NewsRadio for next season, but there's no decision on how Hartman will be replaced. Hartman taped his final voice work for The Simpsons on April 22, playing Troy McClure; those episodes will be shown next season. Hartman had also appeared in the cliffhanger season finale of 3rd Rock from the Sun; a spokesman for the NBC sitcom said that next season's opener had yet to be written or filmed.
