BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 
SNEAKY PETE

Amazon Prime Video, 3:00 a.m. ET

SEASON PREMIERE: In Season 3 of this series, which boasts Bryan Cranston as one of its executive producers, Giovanni Ribisi continues his starring role as Marius – and also continues his long con, pretending to be his former cellmate Pete, even to Pete’s family members and former friends and acquaintances.

 
  
 
 
WINE COUNTRY

Netflix, 3:00 a.m. ET

MOVIE PREMIERE: This movie marks Amy Poehler’s directorial debut. She also stars, in a comedy film about a ladies’ road trip to Napa Valley. Like the distaff version of an Adam Sandler comedy, it’s filled with familiar faces from the annals of Saturday Night Live: in this case, such faces as Tina Fey, Rachel Dratch, Maya Rudolph, and Ana Gasteyer. Today, the same day you can see it on Netflix, you also can pay to see it in selected theaters. Why you’d want to, I can’t really say.

 
  
 
 
MARVEL'S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D.

ABC, 8:00 p.m. ET

SEASON PREMIERE: Season 5 ended with Coulson (Clark Gregg) going off to Tahiti to die, with May (Ming-Na Wen) by his side. Coulson, like a proper Marvel character, already had died and come back to life before, long before the events of the current Avengers movie. For Season 6, Gregg will continue to be involved: He directs tonight’s Season 6 premiere, and is slated to show up on camera this season, but playing a different, darker character. Other things we know about this season of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Season 6 jumps ahead one year. Mack (Henry Simmons) is now the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., and Simmons is still striving to be reunited with Fitz. And so it goes…

 
  
 
 
WU-TANG CLAN: OF MICS AND MEN

Showtime, 9:00 p.m. ET

MINISERIES PREMIERE: This four-part look at the Wu-Tang Clan traces the history, influences and legacy one of hip-hop’s most defining artistic collectives. If you don’t know your RZA from your GZA, or even how to pronounce those particular performers and Clan members (and especially if you do), give this series a try. Other members, of course, include Ghostface Killah, Method Man and Ol’ Dirty Bastard.

 
  
 
 
REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER

HBO, 10:00 p.m. ET

This week’s scheduled guests include journalist Michael Lewis, columnist Matt Lewis, and political commentator Van Jones.

 
  
 
 
STATE OF THE UNION

Sundance, 10:00 p.m. ET

In Part 5 of this abbreviated 10-part series (each episode is about a dozen minutes long), it becomes clear that all the therapy sessions we haven’t been watching between Tom (Chris O’Dowd) and Louise (Rosamund Pike) – in State of the Union, we see only the period before each session – haven’t helped them resolve their conflicts and issues. In fact, as we start tonight’s installment, Tom has moved out.

Perilaku penipuan murni. Bajingan-bajingan ini tidak punya moral dan tidak ragu-ragu menipu orang lain.

Para penipu kelas rendah melakukan apa yang paling mereka kuasai—berbohong, menipu, dan menghilang dengan uang orang lain.
