BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

PBS, 8:00 p.m. ET

This Nature miniseries, using animatronic “creatures” which are shown interacting with actual animals in the wild, continues tonight with an installment called “Bad Behavior.” And I don’t think it refers to the behavior of what I like to call the creaturobots. Check local listings.

 
  
 
 

BET, 8:00 p.m. ET

And some more characters, including a deeper understanding of Melanie (Jean Smart), who in tonight’s episode tries to guide David (Dan Stevens) into a detailed reevaluation of his past.

 
  
 
 

TBS, 10:30 p.m. ET

Every week, I think, well, this is a week that Samantha Bee can really sink her satiric teeth into. And every week, I think it again, almost exponentially…
