BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

CBS, 9:00 p.m. ET

Well, last week Alicia (Julianna Margulies) and Peter (Chris Noth) survived the family party and the clash of their respective mothers, and the unexpected unveiling of the secret that Alicia had demanded a divorce. And now Peter heads to court – not to get divorced, but, in the show’s penultimate episode, to defend himself, once again, against charges of ethics violations and criminal wrongdoing.

GAME OF THRONES

HBO, 9:00 p.m. ET

Watch the women. That’s all I’m saying this season, because last week’s season premiere seemed to be all about the women playing this Game, and beginning to restore their own powers, alliances and forces. When this chess board eventually stages another war, there could be nothing left but queens.

SILICON VALLEY

HBO, 10:00 p.m. ET

The boys are back at their old company, which isn’t their old company any more, because the board installed a new CEO (Stephen Tobolowsky) – who may actually know what he’s doing. But at what price?

PENNY DREADFUL

Showtime, 10:00 p.m. ET

SEASON PREMIERE: This show is one of the more underrated shows on TV, especially in the horror genre. The new season begins with our heroic group of monster fighters spread far and wide, and under attack not only on various continents, but within themselves. Eva Green stars – and Patti LuPone returns, this season as a regular.

VEEP

HBO, 10:30 p.m. ET

Selina (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) finds herself in a statistical tie in the electoral college, and the only way to claim the presidency may be to demand a recount in one hotly contested, very close state. It’s a good plan – but only if she wins. For a full review, see Ed Bark’s Uncle Barky’s Bytes.
