There are shows this week for the kiddies (Sunday’s “Kids’ Choice Awards” on Nickelodeon), folks who used to be kids (an interview with the Looney Tunes creator on TCM Tuesday) and people who need help taking care of their kids (“Supernanny” on Friday).

And say goodbye to one of ABC Family’s biggest hits (“The Secret Life of the American Teenager” Monday) while greeting an unusual drama series set in Africa (“No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency” on HBO Sunday)
