What to Watch on Sunday: The return of "Mad Men"

Mad Men (10pm, AMC) - In the first episode of Season 4, titled "Public Relations," Don's reluctance to talk about himself blows an important interview with an big magazine, while the new firm of Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce tries to woo the wholesome Jantzen swimwear company. Also, Pete and Peggy stage a stunt at a grocery store to get more ad money from their client, and Roger sets Don up on a blind date. Read more about the premiere in our review.

My Boys (10pm, TBS) - Season 4 opens with two new back-to-back episodes. In the first, PJ and her friends come to terms with the loss of one of their buddies, who moved to China for work (that's right, Jim Gaffigan does not return for this season). In the second episode, Mike is upset when the gang goes to a fancy restaurant without him, so he has his own grown-up evening with Brendan at an upscale bar.

The Gates (10pm, ABC) - Marcus looks into the disappearance of Theresa, and Nick may  have to enter into an alliance with a vampire who saved his life.

Army Wives (10pm, AMC) - An AWOL soldier is arrested after missing her deployment and Grant Chandler (Harry Hamlin) takes the case.

Entourage (10:30pm, HBO) - Drama gets off on the wrong foot with potential costar John Stamos, and Eric and Scott find common ground in advancing Vince's career and the future of their company.

What to Watch on Saturday: Which is better, dog or cat?

My Boys marathon (12:30pm, TBS) - In advance of the Season 4 premiere (tomorrow night), TBS is showing a marathon of the best episodes of their original comedy series, "My Boys." Today's 3-hour marathon features some of the best episodes of Season 3.

Dogs vs. Cats (8pm, Animal Planet) - A debate as old as time itself: which species is better, dogs or cats? I know where I come down (meow). I'm betting in the end they won't actually pick a side, but should be a fun show.

Persons Unknown (8pm, NBC) - Joe confesses to Janet what he knows about the kidnappers, then Blackham and Erika make a plan to use Joe in an escape attempt.

Being Human (10pm, BBC America) - Season 2 opens with the vampire society in complete disarray after Herrick's death, and George feels like a changed man after killing him. That is, until he discovers a horrible truth about Nina.
