Two American League playoff games are presented today, both by Fox Sports 1. The first game pits the Texas Rangers against the Toronto Blue Jays, who have home-field advantage – and the offensive advantage as well, with the most potent hitters in baseball right now. The second game, starting at about 7:30 p.m. ET, has the Houston Astros visiting the Kansas City Royals. The Royals dominated regular-season play enough to have home-field advantage throughout the playoffs, but the Astros just

The returning old heroes are mixing, a little more, with the newly established fresh ones, but their chemistry, like this rebooted series, has yet to gel. But there are two main plots continuing to take root: One in which veteran Heroes character Luke (new co-star Zachary Levi, pictured) hunts for many things, including keys to his own latent powers.

SEASON PREMIERE: Billy Eichner’s series returns, this time on TruTV, and the reason it’s worth noting, and watching, is because of its opening-night guest star, Tina Fey, who joins Eicher for a clever surprise-the-passersby bit.

Last night, the Houston Astros dispatched the New York Yankees rather easily in the American League’s wild card game, winning 3-0 and getting the only run it would need in the first pitch of the second inning. So the Astros are in orbit, and the Yankees are grounded until next year. Meanwhile, tonight, the National League mounts its do-or-die, one-shot trip to the 2015 postseason, as two pitching aces face one another. The Pittsburgh Pirates have Gerrit Cole, who has a 19-8 record and home

SERIES PREMIERE: An offshoot of the former Tonight Show host’s online series, this new CNBC series helps Jay Leno indulge in his favorite hobby, collecting and fixing and driving and talking about cars, to fill some of his spare time – and, maybe, yours.
