What became of Grateful Dead’s Bob Weir? BY KEVIN MCDONOUGH It’s been some time since Friday nights became the new Saturday night, an evening that networks still cannot fathom. The networks have set their schedules for next fall, and Friday evenings remain remarkably unchanged. Of the 15 hours of programming from five networks, there is exactly one hour of new material. ABC replaces the just-canceled “Cristela” with “Dr Ken,” starring Ken Jeong (“Community”) as a difficult doctor. NBC, a network once noted for strong sitcoms, has whittled its comedy lineup down to exactly two sitcoms, both airing on Friday nights. I’m not surprised “Undateable” is returning for a third season; I’m shocked it made it to a second. It will be paired with “People Are Talking,” a comedy about young married parents, starring Mark-Paul Gosselaar (“Saved by the Bell”). This is a remarkable turn of events for NBC. Of the 21 hours of prime-time programming NBC offers in a given week, only one hour is devoted to comedy. Back in 1993, the era of “Seinfeld,” “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” and “Blossom,” the network devoted seven hours to comedy, or onethird of its schedule. Next fall’s Friday night lineup is completely unchanged for CBS. Meanwhile, ABC swaps out “Cristela” for “Dr. Ken.” NBC follows its two meager sitcoms with “Grimm” and “Dateline.” Fox hasn’t had a success on Friday nights since “The X-Files” decamped for Sundays back in 1996, so it isn’t exactly going out on a limb by offering “MasterChef Junior” and “World’s Funniest Fails.” The CW will air the teen Tudor fantasy “Reign” paired with the seemingly unending search for “America’s Next Top Model.” If the ratings for “The Messengers” get much lower, there may be no one around to watch. • Pop culture is filled with sidekicks and second bananas. Some are more famous than others. Who remembers Andrew Ridgeley, the non-George Michael member of Wham? Art Garfunkel has a nice voice, but it hasn’t kept him as relevant as his ex-partner, Paul Simon. Since the breakup of Loggins and Messina, Kenny

Deadheads tape its shows and disseminate its recordings presaged the “sharing” economy of the post-Napster music industry. With so much of its recorded music in this new form of “public domain,” the Dead’s relentless tours became as much a revenue source as a cultural touchstone. • Ty Pennington and Amanda Freitag host “American Diner Revival” (10:30 p.m., Food). Over six episodes they will travel to small towns and cities struggling to keep their local diners in business and intact by adjusting to changing demographics and tastes and tweaking stodgy menus and dated decor.

TONIGHT’S OTHER HIGHLIGHTS HERB GREENE / COURTESY OF NETFLIX

Profiling the Grateful Dead’s rhythm guitarist, “The Other One: The Long Strange Trip of Bob Weir” begins streaming today on Netflix. Loggins has made a bundle writing montage music for action movies. Jim Messina has adjusted to a more modest schedule. Just who was more famous: Hall or Oates? Milli or Vanilli? Will next year’s “American Idol” valedictory season have room for Ryan Seacrest’s season-one sidekick, Brian Dunkleman? The 2015 documentary “The Other One: The Long Strange Trip of Bob Weir” begins streaming today, exclusively on Netflix. Twenty years after the death of Grateful Dead lead guitarist Jerry Garcia, Weir, the band’s rhythm guitarist, appears content to remain in his shadow. “The Other One” is both a profile of Weir as a sidekick eager to cede the spotlight and a chronicle of the band’s storied history, from the San Francisco scene that put the acid in acid rock to its decades-long trip as the ultimate touring band.

In its own way, the Dead’s willingness to have devoted

• Red struggles to save Liz’s reputation on “The Blacklist” (8 p.m., NBC, r, TV-14). • A psychic didn’t see it coming on “Bones” (9 p.m., Fox, r, TV-14). • The secret of the genius

stone resists deciphering on “The Messengers” (9 p.m., CW, TV-14). • A gay officer loses a partner when his secret is revealed on “Blue Bloods” (10 p.m., CBS, r, TV-14).

CULT CHOICE Kristen Bell returned to star in the fan-funded 2014 movie adaptation of the onetime UPN and CW show “Veronica Mars” (8:10 p.m., Cinemax).

LATE NIGHT Jimmy Fallon welcomes Sting, Kevin Connolly and Kevin Delaney on “The Tonight Show” (11:35 p.m., NBC) * Jennifer Connelly, Judd Apatow and Twenty One Pilots appear on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” (11:35 p.m., ABC) * Jane Fonda, Leslie Jones and Kay Cannon visit “Late Night With Seth Meyers” (12:35 a.m., NBC, r).
