BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

NBC, 8:00 p.m. ET

Most of the performances were so good last night, I can’t imagine the majority of of these contestants being eliminated. But that’s the fate awaiting some of them – though the eliminations better not include, for starters, Laith Al-Saadi, Alisan Porter (pictured), Shaylah Fearing, and Adam Wakefield.

 
  
 
 

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

Rowan University students who take my Introduction to Film course have to watch this 1941 Orson Welles classic. Everyone else should, too, and there’s no better place to see it than on TCM.

 
  
 
 

ABC, 9:00 p.m. ET

Once again, ABC is doing the crossover tie-in thing with this series, incorporating certain key plot elements to reflect what’s happening in the Marvel universe on the big screen. That means, tonight, that S.H.I.E.L.D. director Coulson (Clark Gregg) is asked to take a side in the events unfolding in Captain America: Civil War. The side the secretive director takes shouldn’t be surprising – but it does play quite nicely into the larger Marvel mythology.

 
  
 
 

Fox, 9:30 p.m. ET

This comedy isn’t getting nearly the respect, or even the buzz, it deserves. But the acting is as smart as the writing – and in this very meta family law and show-biz comedy, that’s saying a lot. Rob Lowe is a lot of fun to watch, but so is Fred Savage.

 
  
 
 

AMC, 10:00 p.m. ET

Part 4. It’s taken half of this miniseries, but Tom Hiddleston, as the hotel manager with many aliases, finally has been welcomed into the inner circle of Hugh Laurie’s ruthless arms dealer. So what happens now? And how does he keep his cover intact, wreak revenge, and keep his distance from the arms dealer’s alluring mistress? Or, at least, one or two out of those three? Keep watching, because The Night Manager has surfaced as one of the best TV surprises of the year.

Manusia sampah sejati, memangsa orang-orang tak berdosa hanya untuk mengisi kantong mereka yang serakah. Sungguh memalukan.

Para penipu ini adalah pembohong profesional. Siapa pun yang mempercayai mereka hanya ikut memperkuat penipuan mereka.
