‘Freaky Friday’ a Disney classic

Tonight’s might-see

“Freaky Friday” (2003), 8-10 p.m., ABC. Many moms are convinced their teen daughters know nothing about living their lives. Most of those teens figure their moms are clueless.

So what if they simply transposed? What if each slipped into the other’s body?

That notion was at the core of a terrific 1977 movie, starring Barbara Harris and Jodie Foster. It was remade here with Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan. The result has (twice) given Disney a classic comedy.

Other choices include

“NCIS,” 8 p.m., CBS. Ducky finds this autopsy surprising: The victim, supposedly frozen to death, returns to consciousness.

“Brokeback Mountain” (2005), 8 and 11 p.m., Bravo. In a change, the network is running this brilliant movie. Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal are superb as cowboys in love. There were well-deserved Oscars for director Ang Lee, composer Gustavo Santaolalla and the subtly eloquent script by Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana.

“Law & Order: Criminal Intent,” 10 p.m., NBC. Getting into a prestigious preschool is getting dangerous. Three parents of kids on the waiting list have been killed.

“Saturday Night Live,” 11:29 p.m., NBC. Christopher Walken hosts, with music from Panic at the Disco.

Tonight’s must-see

“Army Wives,” 11 p.m., Lifetime. This is Roxy’s big moment. She’s taken over the bar that was shattered by a mad bomber. Tonight is the reopening.

It’s a huge responsibility for someone whose previous experience involved being a sassy waitress. There are last-minute inspections, repairs, deliveries. Roxy also has to worry about her two kids and her husband, who’s eager to ignore his wounds and return to combat.

And there’s the crucial question: Will people really shake off the bad memories and return to the bar?

That story is told quite well, thanks partly to Sally Pressman’s terrific portrayal of Roxy, one of TV’s better characters.
