Tuesday TV Picks on GREAT! Action
Today’s lineup is a balanced dose of adrenaline, history and real‑world heroics. Whether you’re after a pulse‑pounding serial or a calm documentary, the schedule has you covered.
Burn Notice – “Smuggling & Suspicion”
The series reappears at 13:00–14:00 (BST 14:00–15:00). It keeps the stakes high with a smuggler‑turned‑ally and a corrupt detective. The pacing is steady, and the characters stay in the spotlight. Still entertaining for fans of espionage.
The Unit – “Cold War Cross‑Talk”
From 12:00–13:00 (BST 13:00–14:00), a Russian scientist and MI5 agent collide. The episode’s romantic past adds drama, but the plot’s logic sometimes feels stretched. It’s reliable for those who enjoy techno‑thrillers.
The Vietnam War – “Origins & Conflict”
The documentary airs at 09:00–10:00 (BST 10:00–11:00). It gives a concise look at early Vietnamese history and the rise of Ho Chi Minh. The presentation is clear, though it may not cover every nuance. Good for a quick, informative watch.
40 Guns to Apache Pass – “Frontier Fire”
The Western starts at 10:00–10:56 (BST 11:00–11:56) and repeats until 12:00. Audie Murphy plays the captain protecting settlers from hostile Apaches. The pacing is classic, but the narrative can feel predictable. A reliable option for fans of period action.
Air Rescue – “Heroes on the Horizon”
From 02:10–03:00 (BST 03:10–04:00) the crew tackles a shark attack victim and a daring rock fisherman. The real‑time feel is engaging, yet the episodes can feel repetitive. Still entertaining for those who appreciate rescue drama.
Good News on GREAT! Extra – “Positive Pulse”
Short segments from 16:50–17:00 (BST 17:50–18:00) deliver uplifting stories. The content is light and easy to watch, a good break after intense shows.
Teleshopping – “Daily Deals”
