"The Story of China" (7 and 8 p.m., PBS/Ch. 7) is a fascinating six-part, six-hour series that seems not long enough, given that it explores 4,000 years of Chinese history and culture. Host/historian Michael Wood leads a compelling journey that begins by traveling back to the origins of the country. (Back-to-back episodes air on three successive Tuesdays.)
