BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

CBS, 7:00 p.m. ET

Soon approaching its golden anniversary (it premiered in 1968), 60 Minutes continues not only to survive, but to thrive. Tonight, Lesley Stahl presents the first post-election extended interview with President-Elect Donald Trump. First time I’ve typed that particular appellation, paired with that particular name.

THE CIRCUS: INSIDE THE GREATEST POLITICAL SHOW ON EARTH

Showtime, 8:00 p.m. ET

SEASON FINALE: I’ve been very impressed with this new political documentary series all season, and tonight’s expanded edition concludes one of the most unpredictable, or at less unpredicted, presidential races in American history. I’m calling this a season finale, rather than a series finale, because I hope, in 2020, The Circus will be back. (Along with, I hear some of you thinking, the Democrats.)

THE WALKING DEAD

AMC, 9:00 p.m. ET

Last week’s Walking Dead focused entirely on one member of the post-apocalyptic zombie-avoiding family: Daryl (Norman Reedus), who had been carted away and imprisoned by Negan and the Saviors. In the end, Negan offered Daryl a chance to join his group – and Daryl refused. This week, we shift our focus back to Alexandria, and to Rick (Andrew Lincoln), who hasn’t been seen in the past two episodes.

WESTWORLD

HBO, 9:00 p.m. ET

This series is beginning to percolate in the awareness of viewers, with more discussion each week in social media about the show’s true direction. It’s a timely escalation, because the android creations populating the program are undergoing a similar gradual awakening.

MASTERS OF SEX

Showtime, 10:00 p.m. ET

SEASON FINALE: After a very rough emotional season, Masters and Johnson finally seem to have found romantic and sexual happiness – and found it, after several seasons of miscommunication and false starts, with each other.

LAST WEEK TONIGHT WITH JOHN OLIVER

HBO, 11:00 p.m. ET

The three best comic political voices, in this tumultuous political season, have been Bill Maher and Samantha Bee, both of whom have chimed in post-election already with excellent debriefing specials, and John Oliver, who adds his perspective tonight. Don’t miss it. Do record it.
