NEW YORK (CNS) -- Here are some television program notes for the week of Jan. 27 with their TV Parental Guidelines ratings if available. They have not been reviewed and therefore are not necessarily recommended by Catholic News Service.

Monday, Jan. 28, 9-11 p.m. EST (PBS) "The King." In filmmaker Eugene Jarecki's documentary, Elvis Presley's 1963 Rolls-Royce serves as the vehicle for a musical road trip that traces the singer's rise and fall -- and uses his career as a metaphor for the country he left behind.

Saturday, Feb. 2, 8-10 p.m. EST (EWTN) "St. Rose of Lima." A dramatization of the faith journey of Isabel Flores de Oliva (1586-1617), whose exemplary life would lead to her canonization as St. Rose of Lima, the first saint of the Americas (TV-Y -- all children).
