BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 
THE WILD BUNCH

Sundance, 5:45 p.m. ET

Look how times have changed – or how they haven’t. In 1969, Sam Peckinpah directed this gritty Western, which attracted all sorts of heat, and acclaim, for its slow-motion scenes of gunplay and violence. William Holden, Ernest Borgnine and Robert Ryan star.

 
  
 
 
WHOSE LINE IS IT ANYWAY?

CW, 8:00 p.m. ET

Maybe it’s that this improv series arrives on a Friday, when I’m all worn out – but there’s something about this show’s easy, breezy fun that makes it the perfect antidote to a tough work week. And this week, among the guest stars playing along: Tara Lipinski.

 
  
 
 
SUMMER STOCK

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

This 1950 musical features one of the stock plot lines of the genre: hey, kids, let’s put on a show. And this time, the kids putting on the show include two of the very best: Judy Garland and Gene Kelly.

 
  
 
 
REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER

HBO, 10:00 p.m. ET

Quite a show: Not only is former Real Time correspondent Matt Taibbi one of the guests, along with Rob Lowe, but so are Masha Alekkina, Nadya Tolokonnikova (pictured) and Petya Verzilov – much, much better known as the Russian activist group known as Pussy Riot.

 
  
 
 
VICE

HBO, 11:00 p.m. ET

Among the stories in tonight’s new edition: Shane Smith retraces the steps of the Boston Bomber’s path in Dagestan.
