The Year in Pup Culture 9 p.m., Animal Planet

Oh yes, yes indeed. Animal Planet has a bunch of puppies reenacting scenes from the year’s headlines. It’s the puppying of America, as the cute ones get positioned as Olympic athletes (above) and, I’m guessing, characters in the likes of “Argo” or “Les Miserables” or “Homeland.” I’d love to see a little cocker spaniel as Katie Holmes and a Jack Russell terrier as Tom Cruise, breaking up.
