BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

CBS All Access, 3:00 a.m. ET

SEASON PREMIERE: Season 3 begins tonight, bringing a new set of issues and battles, in and out of court, to the characters (and writers) of The Good Fight. This sequel to CBS’s equally excellent The Good Wife seems all but banished on the network’s premium streaming site – but if you pay for its monthly subscription fee, The Good Fight remains the best original production on the site. The Twilight Zone reboot, arriving next month, may change that. Or may not. Christine Baranski stars, working with an impressively talented gaggle of co-stars and guest stars. For a full-length appreciation, see Alex Strachan's TV That Matters.

 
  
 
 

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

TCM host Ben Mankiewicz and his guest for this month-long Thursday night tour of movies and the media, Carl Bernstein, hold court over another prime-time celebration of some of the cinema’s best movies about the media. Ace in the Hole, from 1951, starts things off at 8 p.m. ET, starring Kirk Douglas (pictured) as a newspaper reporter who is as competitive, and manipulative, as any of his print or radio or TV competitors. Then comes Sweet Smell of Success, the 1957 classic starring Burt Lancaster as a ruthless gossip columnist. The late, great Spy magazine used the name of Lancaster’s character, J.J. Hunsecker, as one of its most famous nom de plume columnist aliases.
