BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

One of my absolute favorite movies, ever. And here, on TCM, this 1969 Western classic, written by William Goldman and directed by George Roy Hill, is shown widescreen, without interruption, and without edits – so, presumably, we can hear what Butch and Cassidy (Paul Newman, Robert Redford) scream as they jump off that cliff. And no, it’s not “Geronimo!”

 
  
 
 

Fox, 9:00 p.m. ET

This second episode, adhering very closely to the outline and content of Carl Sagan’s original program, brings the concept of evolution front and center. It’s another strong hour for the series – and, sad to say, probably as controversial today as when Sagan discussed the topic so matter-of-factly 30 years ago. Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson hosts. And let's see how much of this episode gets shown by the Fox affiliate in Oklahoma City...

 
  
 
 

CBS, 9:00 p.m. ET

What a fabulous series this is, delivering cleverly written, superbly performed episodes week after week. This week, as Alicia (Julianna Margulies) struggles to write a high-stakes keynote address, we get flashbacks to the time the series began – and just before – as Alicia recalls her initial post-law school meeting with Will (Josh Charles). It’s an episode exploring, in yet another subtle way, their intimately complex relationship – yet also an episode making room for more unforgettable scenes from legal loose cannon Elsbeth (Carrie Preston).

 
  
 
 

AMC, 9:00 p.m. ET

In this half-season’s continuing round of “divide and dramatize,” we continue to follow different sets of survivors this week. Tonight, we circle back to Tyreese (Chad L. Coleman), Lizzie Brighton Sharbino), and baby Judith. They’ve already met up with Carol – with only a few episodes left this season, who, if anyone, is next?

 
  
 
 

NBC, 10:00 p.m. ET

SEASON PREMIERE: Gillian Anderson, Dermot Mulroney and Rachael Taylor star in this new NBC serialized series, which starts out better than most. For a full review, and a link to my Fresh Air review, see Bianculli’s Blog.
 
  
 
 

Showtime, 10:30 p.m. ET

SEASON FINALE: The good news: Pucks has been canceled, leaving Sean and Beverly (Stephen Mangan, Tamsin Greig) free to return to England and Matt LeBlanc free to pursue other offers. Except… the offers are drying up fast for LeBlanc, and piling up even faster for Sean and Beverly. A delightful end to another delightful season of one of TV’s best comedies.
