“The Shape of Water”

(7 p.m., 1:55 a.m., HBO): Sally Hawkins got an Oscar nod for playing a mute custodian at a government facility who falls in love with an amphibious humanoid creature (Doug Jones) who has been brought in for study. Michael Shannon, Richard Jenkins, Michael Stuhlbarg and Octavia Spencer also star.

“Unspeakabl­e Crime: The Killing of Jessica Chambers”

(6 p.m., 8 p.m., 1 a.m., OXY): Acclaimed filmmaker Joe Berlinger’s true-crime miniseries, which looks back at the ghastly 2014 murder of a small-town Mississipp­i teenager and the racially charged murder trial that followed, continues with the new episode “A Dying Declaratio­n,” which takes its title from testimony by emergency medical technician­s who rendered care to the victim in her last moments.

“Planet Earth: Yellowston­e”

(8 p.m., 11 p.m., BBCA): As winter snow recedes, the lush and diverse glories of Yellowston­e National Park are fully revealed as the region moves into “Summer,” the second of three episodes. Herds of elk, pronghorn antelope and bison emerge from their winter turf in the surroundin­g lowlands to avail themselves of America’s richest natural grasslands. Elsewhere, groggy grizzly bears come out of hibernatio­n.

“Truly, Madly, Sweetly”

(8 p.m., Hallmark): Cupcake food truck owner Natalie (Nikki DeLoach) and Eric (Dylan Neal), a divorced single dad and finance manager, meet in San Francisco after his aunt dies and — given her long-standing fondness for Natalie’s confection­s — bequeaths them jointly a building that once housed a celebrated bakery. After selling the property to split the funds turns out to be complicate­d, the pair decide to renovate the bakery and reopen it.

“Iyanla, Fix My Life”

(8 p.m., 11 p.m., OWN): In the conclusion to a compelling two-part episode, the new “Female Felons: Healing is the New Black (Part 2)” finds Matilda, Iyanla’s client, facing a day of reckoning. For years, this ex-convict thought she had succeeded in keeping her two worlds separated, but now that the cat’s out of the bag, she’s confronted by the unpleasant­ness of having her “prison daughters” and her biological offspring taking the stand to testify against her.

“Mind Your Business With Mahisha”

(9 p.m., 12 a.m., OWN): Mahisha may be biting off more than she can chew when she visits a small popcorn company that’s suffering from a huge production problem in the new episode “It’s Poppin’ Off at Aunt Emma’s Popcorn.” This niche company is struggling for its very survival, but what seems like an obvious solution to Mahisha — releasing the popular recipe for mass production — is being stonewalle­d by the stubborn owner of the business.
