What to Watch on CBS Action This Weekend

CBS Action has a diverse slate for the weekend, but a few titles stand out. Below are the shows that are worth a spot on your TV list, paired with a quick opinion and a recommended viewing window in London time (BST).

The Six Million Dollar Man – 60s Sci‑Fi Classic

The series runs from 05:30 BST to 09:00 BST on Saturday, with four episodes back‑to‑back. Steve Austin’s bionic adventures still hold up when you look at the pacing and the occasional sci‑fi tropes that feel fresh again. It’s a solid pick if you enjoy a blend of action and retro storytelling.

Troy: The Odyssey – Mythic Adventure

Slotting in from 12:00 BST to 13:50 BST, this fantasy saga offers a mythic road‑trip that’s as grand as it is grueling. The visuals are the highlight, but the plot can feel uneven. Still, it’s a decent watch for fans of epic storytelling.

Uncommon Valor – War‑Drama

From 19:00 BST to 21:10 BST, Gene Hackman leads a gritty tale of a retired colonel. The pacing is deliberate and the character work is solid, but the pacing may drag for those who prefer high‑octane action.

Drop Zone – Action Thriller

A late‑night slot from 21:10 BST to 00:15 BST. Wesley Snipes gives the film a sharp edge, but the plot is predictable. It’s still worth watching for its high‑energy chase scenes.

T.J. Hooker – Police Drama

From 06:00 BST to 10:00 BST, the series offers a standard cop‑show formula. The episodes are consistent, though the pacing can feel sluggish for the casual viewer.

The Twilight Zone – Sci‑Fi Anthology

The two-hour block from 19:00 BST to 20:00 BST delivers classic episodes that still provoke thought. The storytelling is timeless, and the twists are still surprising.

Legend Lowdown – Film & TV Preview

A brief 10‑minute segment at 13:50 BST. It’s a quick chance to catch the latest releases, useful if you want to stay in the loop.

Other Notable Picks

The lineup also includes The War Lord, The Curse of the Werewolf, Night Of The Big Heat, The International, Blitz, Drive and Robin Hood: The Rebellion. Each offers a distinct flavor, from medieval drama to modern crime thrillers.

Bottom line: If you’re after classic action, the weekend has you covered. For a mix of genres, you’ll find something that fits every taste.
