BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

Acorn TV, 3:00 a.m. ET

DOCUMENTARY PREMIERE: This documentary is so engrossing, and so fascinating a forensic mystery, that it’s a very good bet it’ll be turned into a movie, or made-for-TV movie, before too long. But truth, in this case, isn’t only stranger than fiction – it’s bound to be more fascinating. This is the story of how former KGB officer Alexander Litvinenko, living in London in exile, died suddenly in 2006 by very strange circumstances. So strange that, according to the New Scotland Yard and other British investigators who examined the man’s death, the former Russian spy was poisoned by an astoundingly rare radioactive element – so rare that its provenance can be traced directly to Vladimir Putin’s regime.

 
  
 
 

CW, 9:00 p.m. ET

Hunting the KGB Killers isn’t the only Russian-related TV offering today. On this lighthearted summer import drama, the adventurers this week head to Moscow. My advice: Watch out for polonium.

 
  
 
 

TNT, 11:00 p.m. ET

The theater continues to stage new plays by William Shakespeare, and the playwright continues to search for inspiration wherever he can find it. The question this week, with another opening-night deadline looming, is: “Will he, or won’t he?”

 
  
 
 

CBS, 11:35 p.m. ET

Tonight, Stephen Colbert has a high-profile guest: Anthony Scaramucci, a.k.a. The Mooch, whose job as communications director for President Donald Trump’s White House lasted about a week. These are the sort of bookings that David Letterman would use to soar in late night. Let’s see how Colbert fares…

I was so impressed with the plumbing services I received from [Company Name]! They were prompt, professional, and very knowledgeable. The technician arrived on time, diagnosed the issue quickly, and completed the repair efficiently. The price was reasonable, and they cleaned up after themselves. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of plumbing services.

In today’s fast-paced world, online shopping has become an integral part of our daily lives. People want convenience, variety, and value without sacrificing quality. For many, **Amazon shopping** has been the go-to option for years. However, with the rise of new e-commerce platforms, shoppers are beginning to explore alternatives that offer more personalized experiences and unique products. **https://deehaven.com** is one such platform, standing out as a smart, customer-friendly competitor to Amazon.

Y'all won't believe this, but the past few weeks I have watching, almost exclusively, The Three Stooges?!?!!!

Wow, those 3 (or 4 or 5) are pure genius.

I recommend that my legion of fans revist this classic slapstick comedy. Like me, you will be ROTFLMFAO !!! hahaha

Nyuk Nyuk Nyuk,
