For those who still enjoy a cable subscription, here is a selection of cable and network TV shows, movies and specials that broadcast this week, Oct. 28-Nov. 3 Details and times are subject to change.

Monday

SMILE (2022) 8 p.m. on MTV. If you plan to catch “Smile 2” in theaters, it might be good to refresh your memory with the original. This film follows Dr. Rose Cotter (Sosie Bacon) and her patient (Caitlin Stasey), who believes she is being followed by an evil entity that forces people to smile. Leave it to a psychological thriller to make something that is usually joyful into something terrifying.

AMERICAN DAD 10 p.m. on TBS. This show, which began in 2005, is back with guest stars such as Kevin Bacon, Michael Imperioli and Leslie Jones. The story will focus on the fictional town of Langley Falls and its boardwalk reopening.

Tuesday

CITIZEN NATION 9 p.m. on PBS (check local listings). This documentary series shadows teenagers across the United States who are taking part in a civics competition. The cameras follows the Gen Zers as they make their way through regional and state competitions in the form of congressional hearings, with the ultimate goal of a championship win in Washington.

Wednesday

GROTESQUERIE 10 p.m. on FX. For the last month, the majority of my TikTok page has consisted of edits of Nicholas Alexander Chavez in two different Ryan Murphy shows — either as Lyle Menendez in “Monsters” on Netflix or as Father Charlie Mayhew in “Grotesquerie.,” and it’s easy to see why. The twisty series follows Lois Tryon (Niecy Nash), a detective, as she works with Megan Duval (Micaela Diamond), a nun and journalist, to solve the horrible crimes happening in the community.
