On Tonight: Riverdance, Escape Routes and Treasure Island

Saturday, May 5

Riverdance: Live From Beijing, 8 p.m., PBS (check listings)

If you were just saying to yourself, ‘Dang, I miss Riverdance,” our friends at PBS have brought back this 2010 performance.

Escape Routes, 8 p.m., NBC

I missed the whole thing. Oh well.

Treasure Island, 7 p.m., SyFy

This is the premiere. And since it is on SyFy, I’m not sure if that means halfway through everyone sprouts tentacles and begin extracting the humans to the mother ship for experimentation, or if this is a regular old version. But I do love this story. “After discovering Captain Flint's treasure map, Jim Hawkins finds a foe named Long John Silver.”
