Heroic measures
It may be early in the Hollywood backslapping season, but you'll be tempted to check out "The 22nd Annual Critics' Choice Awards," with "La La Land" leading the field. Instead, tap into your better self and save your cheering for "The 10th Annual CNN Heroes: An All-Star Tribute," where the emphasis is on non-celebrities achieving extraordinary things. Neil Patrick Harris, Octavia Spencer and Richard Gere will be on hand to assure that you won't suffer from complete celebrity withdrawal.

The mighty Quinn
Aidan Quinn, who has smoothly made the transition from leading man to character actor, has never had much to do on "Elementary," so it makes sense that the Chicagoan try his hand behind the camera. Quinn makes his TV directorial debut in this episode featuring Shinwell, a character straight out of the Arthur Conan Doyle canon, who seeks help from Sherlock Holmes when he's framed for a gang killing, a scenario not out of the Arthur Conan Doyle canon.
