Independent Lens: Leftover Women SAT Feb 8 | 11:30pThis documentary follows three Chinese women – a lawyer, a journalist and a college professor – who, despite thriving careers, are labeled sheng nu (leftover women), a derogatory term for women in their mid-20s and 30s who are not married. With 30 million more men than women in China, social stability is under threat. Single women struggle to stay true to their personal ambitions amid pressure from their families, friends and a government-sponsored campaign to stigmatize unwed women.

Jamie’s Ultimate Veg series premiere MON Feb 10 | 12pIn his new series, chef Jamie Oliver encourages meat-eaters and vegetarians alike to put vegetables at the front and center of their plates, providing simple techniques for turning ordinary “veg” into extraordinary main dishes. Seeking inspiration from around the globe, Jamie cooks up vibrant, hearty and healthy dishes that are so delicious, you won’t even miss the meat.

Nature: The Mighty Weasel WED Feb 19 | 8p Members of the weasel family are often portrayed as villains and associated with unsavory behavior. But do they deserve this bad reputation? To find out, Nature follows the adventures of a first-time stoat mom raising her kits in a unique garden setup; shows a tiny orphan weasel on her journey back to the wild; and discovers that the fearless honey badger has brains and not just brawn.

Miles Davis: The Birth of Cool on American Masters BHM TUE Feb 25 | 9pA visionary known for his restless aesthetic, Miles Davis was one of the most innovative, influential and respected figures in music. Directed by Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Stanley Nelson, this documentary tells the unvarnished story of the mercurial musician.
