Fifth Annual Critics' Choice Television Awards.

Who says Family Guy gets no respect? Its creator, Seth MacFarlane, will receive the Genius Award at this year's kudofest, hosted by Cat Deeley (So You Think You Can Dance). There's a new category this year: Most bingeworthy show. Live at 7 p.m. for the red carpet preshow and 8 p.m. for the awards show Sunday on A&E.

Devious Maids.

Ana Ortiz, Dania Ramirez, Roselyn Sánchez, and Judy Reyes return as a cadre of sinfully sassy Beverly Hills maids in the third-season premiere of this guilty pleasure. Glee's Naya Rivera joins the cast this season. 9 p.m. Monday on Lifetime.

Stitchers.

Finally, a sci-fi procedural spy show for the whole family. Newcomer Emma Ishta stars as a covert agent who is stitched into the minds of the recently deceased to use their memories to solve crime. The young cast includes Salli Richardson-Whitfield (Eureka, Being Mary Jane) and Kyle Harris (Carrie Diaries). 9 p.m. Tuesday on ABC Family.

Man Finds Food.

Traveling foodie Adam Richman samples a series of Philadelphia eateries, including burger joint PYT in Northern Liberties, National Mechanics in Old City, Center City's Federal Donuts, and the Ranstead Room. 9 p.m. Wednesday on the Travel Channel.

Signed, Sealed, Delivered.

This unabashedly sentimental and lovable dramedy stars Eric Mabius (Ugly Betty), Kristin Booth (Orphan Black), and Crystal Lowe (A Little Bit Zombie) as lost-letter detectives at the post office. For its second season, each episode will be a two-hour movie. 9 p.m. Saturday on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries.
