After the Fall. It's hard to get excited about Faye Dunaway in a heavy role (her dramatic stuff is usually pseudo-searing, and at least several notches bellow the quality of the material), but after "Chinatown," maybe she deserves another chance. Christopher Plummer co-stars in this Arthur Miller play. (After typing all this, I just realized the show will only appear on Providence, R.I. television. Visit a friend at Brown or tie a kite to your antenna. Or just forget the whole thing.) Ch. 10, 8:30 p.m. 2 1/2 hours.
