Scott Turow’s Innocent
A strong cast, including Marcia Gay Harden, Alfred Molina, and Richard Schiff, bolsters this sequel to Presumed Innocent, the film made from Scott Turow’s ingenious 1987 whodunit. Here, Bill Pullman plays Judge Rusty Sabich, who in this story has been charged with murdering his mentally unstable wife. The allegations set the stage for a rematch with the prosecutor who failed 20 years earlier to convict Sabich in the murder of his mistress. Tuesday, Nov. 29, at 9 p.m., TNT

The Take
Based on a British best seller by crime writer Martina Cole, this gritty miniseries follows a London hoodlum from the mid-1980s to the mid-1990s, as his criminal ambitions infect his family. The saga borrows too much from previous Mob epics, but the period atmosphere is vivid and the cast is excellent—particularly Tom Hardy as the explosive protagonist. Friday, Dec. 2, at 9 p.m., Encore
Neverland

The miniseries boasts superior production values and an able cast, including Rhys Ifans, Bob Hoskins (reprising his role in the 1991 film Hook), and Charlie Rowe as Peter.
