...AVENGERS (ABC, 10-11 p.m.).* In a modernized parody of those Pearl White cliffhangers of the early 1900s, Mrs. Emma Peel and John Steed set out to investigate a snag in Britain's early-warning radar system, and Mrs. Peel ends up tied to a railroad track-all to the accompaniment of a tinkling old piano...
