It makes sense that perfectly pleasant "Mary Mary" (10 tonight, We TV) would end up on the same channel as "The Braxtons Family Values" reality show.

After all, they are both about the lives of African-American sisters in entertainment, or as the "Mary Mary" tagline reads: fame, family and chaos.

But the sisters, Erica and Tina Campbell, in "Mary Mary" are not like the Braxtons. Oh sure, at the core, the Braxtons love each other. But man, it's hard to see underneath that thick layer of yelling, eye-rolling, dot.com'ing drama.

Music often provides the soundtrack to our lives, but in "Soundtrack for a Revolution" (UNC-TV, 9 tonight), music was a sustaining force during the civil rights struggle.

Through interviews and archival footage, the 2009 documentary shows how the non-violent protesters used music -- most mined from slavery and the black church -- to say the things they couldn't say, get through the worse moments, and elevate their spirits during the imprisonments, violence and triumphs during the civil rights movement.

Some of the most pivotal songs are re-interpreted by modern acts ranging from North Carolina's Anthony Hamilton to legendary folk singer Richie Havens to Brit soul singer Joss Stone.
