“Charmed” (8 p.m., CW): The original show about sibling witches had a very healthy run, enduring through several cast changes, and it’s reborn in this new version as three sisters discover their special powers while probing the circumstan­ces of their mother’s death. Sarah Jeffery (alias Jennifer Lopez’s daughter on “Shades of Blue”), Melonie Diaz and Madeleine Mantock portray the new Charmed Ones who follow their mom’s mantra to be “Stronger Together.” Rupert Evans also stars as their adviser on the supernatur­al. “Decorating Disney: Halloween Magic” (7 p.m., FREE): Few family tourist destinatio­ns “do” major holidays like the Walt Disney parks do, and this new special — airing as part of Freeform’s 31 Nights of Halloween programmin­g lineup — takes audiences behind the scenes to see how a dedicated and apparently tireless team of Disney cast members literally works overtime to spread Halloween spirit — and spirits — throughout their respective realms. Look for pumpkins, ghosts and assorted other ghoulish delights around every corner.

“Terror in the Woods” (7 p.m., 11:05 p.m., 2:06 a.m., Lifetime): Based on a horrifying yet true incident, this new 2018 chiller chronicles how two 12-year-old girls, Rachel and Kaitlyn (Ella West Jerrier, Sophie Grace), who loved looking up scary stories on the Internet during sleepovers became convinced that a monster out of urban legend would hurt their families unless they performed a blood sacrifice to him.

“US Secret Service: On the Front Line” (8 p.m., 11 p.m., NGEO): This new twohour documentar­y chronicles how the U.S. Secret Service guarantees the safety of President Donald Trump through the coordinate­d efforts of shift agents, courier-snipers, intelligen­ce agents and even canine explosive ordnance units.

“Camping” (9 p.m., 9:30 p.m., 12:30 a.m., 2:30 a.m., HBO): Jennifer Garner returns to series television in this new comedy from Lena Dunham (“Girls”), which casts the former “Alias” star as tightly wound Kathryn McSorley-Jodell, who obsessivel­y plans a back-to-nature camping trip for a small group to celebrate the 45th birthday of her doting husband, Walt (David Tennant). Unfortunat­ely, this supposedly “laid back” outing is compromise­d by Kathryn’s former best friend, Nina-Joy (Janicza Bravo), a surly goth teen (Cheyenne Haynes) and the multi-talented Jandice (Juliette Lewis).

“American Masters” (9 p.m., PBS): In the new episode “Itzhak,” filmmaker Alison Chernick provides an appreciati­ve yet clear-eyed profile of Itzhak Perlman, a 16-time Grammy-winning musician who is widely regarded as the world’s greatest violinist. It’s his warm personalit­y and irrepressi­ble sense of humor, however, that have helped propel him outside the rarefied classical music world and into the wider pop culture.

“The Alec Baldwin Show” (9:01 p.m., ABC): Give actor Alec Baldwin this: There’s pretty much nothing he’s wanted to try in his career that he hasn’t. Now, he gives hosting a talk show a whirl as this program premieres, and he’s better equipped and prepared for it than some might expect. First guests: Robert De Niro and Taraji P. Henson.
