Ted is angling for dates for the wedding weekend, and comes up with a trio of last-minute possibilities – each of them, apparently, a little less acceptable than the last.

There’s a wedding tonight on Bones, as this show’s central couple actually threatens to become a couple. And the ceremony itself includes a musical reason to tune in – a vocal performance by a guest star who, like the song she sings, is best left as a sweet little surprise.

This 1962 thriller, originally released in Poland as Nz W Wodzie, was Roman Polanski’s first fill-length film after a series of shorts, and generated enough international acclaim to be nominated for Best Foreign Language Feature that year.  It didn’t win, but Polanski did: He was noticed, and received enough attention, and backing, that three years later he made his 1965 masterpiece of a woman’s descent into madness, Repulsion, starring Catherine Deneuve.

SERIES PREMIERE: The Nerdist multimedia host and enthusiast Chris Hardwick gets yet another TV series – this time on Comedy Central, in a midnight slot that, on this network, is a plum position. It follows The Colbert Report, which follows The Daily Show with Jon Stewart – and thus, is poised to be the final leg of a very irreverent, very topical comedy trifecta.

So if this program has become a weekly habit, set your recorder or stay up later, rather than miss it. Tonight’s installment: , Tonight is Part 7, which means we’ve almost reached the halfway point of this excellent, inspirational film history documentary. Tonight’s focus is 1

Now that we know who’s in the World Series this year (Spoiler alert: the team that earned its way in last night rhymes with Austin), let’s take a moment to shift our attention back to pro football. Tonight is a Sunday night game with all sorts of drama: Peyton Manning is taking his Denver Broncos to Indianapolis to play his old team, the Colts, for the first time since the Colts released him. There’s no way Eli’s older brother won’t be pumped for this game – a

Last week’s episode ended with a zombie deluge that was as creepy as it was unexpected. Tonight, expect more danger from unexpected places, as this season, which suggested its heroes would enjoy a temporary respite, is turning out to offer anything but.

The focus this season has been bifurcated – sometimes on Carrie, sometimes on Brody – and tonight, for much of the episode, it’s Carrie’s turn again. Claire Danes stars,

I was premature last week, claiming that last Sunday’s episode would include Will’s discovery of Alicia’s plans to defect. (I fell for the old “Overstuffed On-Air Promo” trick, without noting the “later this season” disclaimer.) But hey – maybe tonight, right?
