The second day of all-out, all-day March Madness begins just after noon ET on CBS, and continues throughout the day, hopping among various networks. CBS starts with the first tip-off, Cincinnati vs. Iowa, followed at 12:40 p.m. ET by truTV (Ole Miss vs. Oklahoma), 1:30 p.m. ET by TNT (Texas Tech vs. Northern Kentucky), and at 2 p.m. ET by TBS (Kansas State vs. UC Irvine). And that’s just the first four games. Before the night is over, a dozen others follow.

With only a few weeks to go, Gotham kicks into an even higher gear. Shane West adopts his new identity as Bane – and elsewhere, other familiar villains from the Batman canon, the Riddler and the Penguin, team up to combine and conquer.

TCM host Ben Mankiewicz and his guest for this month-long Thursday night tour of movies and the media, Carl Bernstein, hold court over another prime-time celebration of some of the cinema’s best movies about the media. Tonight, for its leading double feature, the focus is on television news, with two more outstanding films – and two films that proved eerily prescient in their choice of subject matter. The 1979 drama The China Syndrome (8 p.m. ET), which depicted a nuclear reactor app

SERIES PREMIERE: Hulu’s newest series, which will be unfurled in weekly doses starting with tonight’s launch, is TV’s newest season-long anthology series. Each season presents a different story and cast under the same series banner, and The Act, like future planned entries in this anthology, is a dramatization of an actual true-crime case. This first season is based on Co-writer Michelle Dean’s 2016 Buzzfeed article, “Dee Dee Wanted Her Daughter to Be Sick, Gypsy Wa

Last season, Riverdale presented a musical episode in which the characters put on a school production of the musical Carrie – a stage play that resulted in an onstage murder. You’d think that would dampen the school’s appetite for a sequel, but tonight, Riverdale presents another musical episode, this time based on the musical Heathers. With Cheryl, Veronica and Betty as the leading Heathers…

Tonight’s TCM prime-time lineup is a rather fanciful scheduling conceit, collecting films with Alice in the title. But that’s more than enough excuse to replay 1969’s influential, and at the time somewhat controversial, Paul Mazursky movie about the swinging suburbs. The title roles are played, in order, by Robert Culp, Natalie Wood, Elliott Gould, and Dyan Cannon.
