Flubber 6 p.m. on HBO Phillip Brainard is a man so lost in thought that he appears, at times, not to pay attention. He’s even forgotten two dates to marry his sweetheart Sara. But the guy’s got a lot on his mind. He’s working with his high voltage, over amorous, flying robot assistant Weebo, on an idea for a substance that’s not only a revolutionary new source of energy, but may well be the salvation of financially troubled Medfield College where his beloved Sara is the president. But it all comes together on the afternoon of his third attempt at a wedding, when the professor creates a miraculous goo that when applied to any object: cars, bowling balls — even people — enables them to fly through the air at remarkable speeds. The stuff defies gravity and looks like rubber. What is it? Flubber! And it’s back in an updated version of the 1961 Disney classic “The Absent-Minded Professor.” Trainwreck 11:25 p.m. on HBO Since she was a little girl, Amy has been taught that monogamy isn’t realistic. Now a magazine writer, Amy lives by that credo, enjoying an uninhibited life free from stifling, boring romantic commitment. But when she finds herself starting to fall for the subject of a new article she’s writing, a charming and successful sports doctor, Amy starts to wonder if other grownups, including this guy who really seems to like her, might be onto something.
