BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 
THE BIG BANG THEORY

CBS, 8:00 p.m. ET

Sheldon and Leonard have interacted before when one of them has been ill and clingy – but tonight, the sick shoe is on the other foot.

 
  
 
 
ELEMENTARY

CBS, 10:00 p.m. ET

In tonight’s episode, Phil Simms makes a brief appearance, playing an unlikely friend of Sherlock’s – and one with an equally unlikely skill. We know he can throw a football – but what else can he throw?

 
  
 
 
PARENTHOOD

NBC, 10:00 p.m. ET

Max (Max Burkholder) is tired of waiting for the object of his affections to notice him, so he asks his mom for advice on how to ask a girl out on a date. A small moment in everyday life – but a big one for Max, whose desired girlfriend seems to like hanging out with the mom more than being alone with the son.

 
  
 
 
CONSTANTINE

Cinemax, 10:00 p.m. ET

This is a “compare and contrast” exercise, not a recommendation. NBC is presenting a new series on Fridays called Constantine, based on the Hellblazer comics and starring Matt Ryan as John Constantine, a man who goes to hell and back to try and redeem himself and protect others. This 2005 movie uses the same source for inspiration, but presents Keanu Reeves in the leading role.

 
  
 
 
THE DAILY SHOW WITH JON STEWART

Comedy Central, 11:00 p.m. ET

Tonight, it all comes full circle. Maziar Bahari is an Iranian-Canadian journalist, who was arrested as an accused spy, and put in solitary confinement for four months in Iran, after being interviewed on The Daily Show. After he wrote his memoir in 2011, Jon Stewart decided to option the book as a movie, eventually directing it himself, and casting Gael Garcia Bernal as Bahari. Tonight on The Daily Show, Stewart plays host to both Bahari and Bernal.

Pelayanan paling anjing yang pernah kami alami. Setelah uang masuk, sikap berubah total. Komplain diabaikan, solusi tidak ada, dan tanggung jawab nol besar.

Hei bajingan, pergilah dan tiduri kuda yang kau tunggangi itu, lalu tinggalkan komunitas cinta dan damai yang berfokus pada TV ini.

Hormat saya,
