Getting a late start tonight but its worth it. At 8pm History Television has Dogfights: P-51 Mustang. Nice. After that it's Thirteen Days at 9pm. The Kevin Costner Cuban missile crisis opus.
PBS has another episode of this sometimes good series, History Detectives: Red Hand Flag; Seth Eastman Painting; Isleton Tong. "A flag that may have been carried into battle by a black infantry regiment during World War I; painting may have been done by military officer Seth Eastman." Right after that at 10 is The War of the World: The Clash of Empires. "Economic volatility, ethnic conflict and empires in crisis led to the rise of brutal regimes in Germany, Japan and Russia." Heavy. But a good double score for PBS.
The History Channel has another in the series Cities of the Underworld with episode 9: Freemason Underground. Secret handshakes and all.
And if this is too taxing for you check out TCM. They have fluffy Paris movies from the 50's on all evening.
