*****SATURDAY, OCTOBER 25*****
5AM ET-HEADLINERS & LEGENDS: ROBERT DOWNEY, JR.
Robert Downey Jr. has been regarded as the best actor of his generation. He is a
veteran of more than 40 films. But it's his drug addiction, not his acting that has
kept him in the headlines. In this hour, the volatile and infamous life of Robert
Downey, Jr.
6AM ET-HEADLINERS & LEGENDS: MEG RYAN
She's known to millions as an all-American sweetheart, but the real Meg Ryan is
driven, tough and confident. This quintessential girl-next-door shot to the top of
Hollywood's A-list and became a movie legend. Her life may look like easy street, but
this intensely private person has not been immune to tough times. The life of Meg
Ryan.
7AM ET-HEADLINERS & LEGENDS: CAMERON DIAZ
She was barely 18 when she left home to make her modeling mark. But Cameron Diaz is
not just another pretty face. She is firmly in control of her career, and acknowledges
mistakes with grace. She has made her share of mistakes, but she knows just what she
wants and never lets anything slow her down. Most actors toil for years in small
roles before achieving fame in a box office hit. Cameron Diaz, as is often her way,
took a different route. She burst onto the scene like wildfire when she was cast
opposite Jim Carrey in "The Mask". She received rave reviews for her performance as a
sultry nightclub singer. But Cameron Diaz wanted to avoid being typecast. So she
went back and paid her dues, learning her craft doing independent films. The result:
instead of becoming one of Hollywood's one hit wonders, it looks like Diaz will just
keep the hits coming.

size is everything.
9PM ET-NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC EXPLORER: DEADLY FASHION
National Geographic Ultimate Explorer host Lisa Ling is taking on her first undercover
operation to expose the illegal trade fueling the slaughter of chiru, or Tibetan
antelope. These medium-sized animals survive at elevations exceeding 17,000 feet, but
the fine, warm wool that helps them with stand the Tibetan plateau's frigid conditions
is also leading to their downfall.
10PM ET-MSNBC INVESTIGATES: RAMPAGE KILLERS (http://investigates.msnbc.com)
Rampage or mass murderers are often confused with Serial Killers, but their motives,
tactics and profiles are quite different. We delve into this world with the help of
top forensic experts and profilers to paint a portrait of a type of killer that since
the Texas Tower Massacre, has popped up all too often on the American Landscape.
You're about to come face-to-face with a killer. Just hours before he commits murder,
you'll hear him tell us why he's about to take out his anger on people he doesn't
know. What makes someone so desperate? We're about to take you to the center of the
massacre, where the killing often stops only when the bullets run out.
11PM ET-MSNBC INVESTIGATES: A MURDEROUS OBSESSION
In a case that shook Baltimore last Spring, Joe Palczynski was shot to death at the
end of a 10 day siege during which he had kidnapped his girlfriend, killed four people
and then kidnapped his girlfriend's parents. His death ended a 10 year reign of
terror during which Palczynski had terrorized and abused a string of girlfriends and
their families managing, in most of these instances, to evade the long arm of the law.
How did it come to this? How did a domestic abuser of these proportions slip through
the system?
12AM ET-MSNBC INVESTIGATES: OUT FOR REVENGE
A Daytrader kills 9 and wounds 13 in an episode of workplace violence that rocks
