With every series in repeats tonight, TBS invites viewers to sample “The Funniest Commercials of the Year: 2004” (8 p.m., TBS). Kevin Nealon (“Saturday Night Live”) hosts this one-hour roundup of 30-second spots from the United States and abroad. More than 50 commercials will be featured, including 10 chosen by viewers on an online poll.

The top 10 include a commercial “starring” director Martin Scorsese agonizing over his pictures at a one-hour photo; a Budweiser spot about a remarkably stoic football referee; and a British ad for Typhoo Tea that may remind some viewers of the deadpan documentary style of the BBC hit “The Office.”

• The 90-minute documentary “The Congregation” (8:30 p.m., PBS) focuses on the story of a single church to examine the social changes challenging centuries of tradition in the Methodist Church and other denominations.

Academy Award-winning filmmakers Alan and Susan Raymond spent more than two years with the members of a progressive United Methodist congregation in a Philadelphia suburb. After their minister of 37 years resigned, members were divided in their reaction to a new minister with a decidedly conservative approach to worship and social activism. As church attendance falls and the collection plate yields lower revenues, the church faces financial woes as well as a crisis of identity. Then the associate pastor announces that she is a practicing homosexual, an admission that may deprive her of her ministerial credentials. While her progressive congregation rallies around her, she faces a church trial.

The Raymonds’ other films include the groundbreaking 1973 series “An American Family,” which many consider the granddaddy of all reality TV shows. Their film “I Am a Promise: The Children of Stanton Elementary School” received an Oscar for best documentary in 1994.

• Comedy Central offers a look back at the entire season of “South Park” on “South Park New Season Rewind” (8:30 p.m., Comedy Central). It’s easy to rewind when your season is only seven episodes long.
