Smart, funny women are memorable. The documentar­y “All About Ann: Governor Richards of the Lone Star State” (8 p.m., HBO) takes an uncritical view of the feisty former governor of Texas. Richards championed progressiv­e politics in a state better known for producing conservati­ve stalwarts, including Tom DeLay, Ron Paul, Rick Perry and George W. Bush.

“Ann” celebrates Richards’ quotable humor as it follows her trajectory from Austin mother and housewife to a political profession­al who with- stood withering attacks on her gender and on her public admission of her past alcoholism.

More love letter than history lesson, “Ann” offers a glimpse at the evolution of Texas politics and provides an interestin­g chapter (or footnote) in the saga of the Bush family dynasty. Richards died of cancer in 2006.

Joe and Ryan become reluctant collaborat­ors and guests at a gruesome dinner party on the second season finale of “The Following” (8 p.m., WHBQTV Channel 13).

Fans of ultraviole­nt thrillers should also note that “Bates Motel” (9 p.m., A&E) is down to its last two episodes of season two. Sheriff Romero (Nestor Carbonell) pulls out all the stops to determine if Norman is really as guilty as he seems.
