WEEKEND TV : Stations Maintain Crisis Coverage

Because of the violence and uncertainty in Los Angeles, many local stations will maintain their continuous coverage of area developments.

Sunday at 7:30 p.m., Channel 28 presents a very different view of California from the one of the last few days on “California’s Gold.” Huell Howser takes viewers on a tour of the blossoming fruit and almond trees in Fresno County as he explains the history of our state’s agricultural heartland.

At 9 p.m. Sunday on Channels 11 and 6, “Married . . . With Children” begins a three-part season finale as the Bundys take a vacation in London.
