The Latest on TV: Zac is Back and More

Notable movies and other programs on TV for Monday August 13 to Sunday August 19:

- MUST-SEE OF THE WEEK: Drama tweens and musical queens alike will be tuning in to The Disney Channel Friday night for the premiere of High School Musical 2. Kenny Ortega returns as director/choreographer, leading his cast, headlined by current "It" boy Zac Efron (pictured) in the sure to be successful next chapter in HSM mania.

For more on the movie, LaughingPlace.com has a complete viewer's guide, Entertainment Weekly gives a behind-the-scenes look and Playbill.com has a full rundown of the weekend's schedule, which includes special sing-along airings and more.

And to get you in the mood a little early, the soundtrack albumgoes on sale Tuesday. (Click the link to pre-order the CD from Amazon.com.)

- AMC will air a couple of interesting documentaries this week: Dial H for Hitchcock on Tuesday and Rated R: Republicans in Hollywood on Friday. The latter seeks to answer the question "could Hollywood be more conservative than we think?"

- Gore Vidal, author of Myra Breckinridge and Caligula, is scheduled to appear on Monday's Henry Rollins Show on IFC.
