The high-def channel’s Beach Boys-themed programming block begins at 10 a.m. ET on Monday with an episode of the Dan Rather-hosted show The Big Interview featuring a conversation with singer Mike Love. That’s followed at 11:15 a.m. by an installment of the U.K. documentary series Rock Legends offering a profile of the group.
The marathon continues at 11:45 a.m. ET with a screening of The Beach Boys 50 — Live in Concert, which captures a performance from the band’s 50th anniversary tour in 2012. Next up, at 1 p.m. ET, is the 1985 documentary The Beach Boys: An American Band.
Another doc, The Beach Boys 50 — Doin’ It Again, which that takes a look at the making of the band’s 2012 reunion album, That’s Why God Made the Radio, and its 50th anniversary tour, will air at 3 p.m. ET.
Bringing the AXS TV marathon to a close, at 4 p.m. ET, The Beach Boys: An American Family, an Emmy-nominated 2000 miniseries that dramatizes the group’s turbulent history.
