BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

Various Networks, Check local listings

One of the biggest stories at the Olympics today is the gold medal final in ice dancing, where U.S. favorites Meryl Davis and Charlie White have a significant lead going into the free dance final event. Viewers can watch them live on NBCSN beginning at 10 a.m. ET, or watch for the way NBC repackages the event for prime time, beginning at 8 p.m. ET. The prime-time features on Davis and White have been very effective, showing them skating together almost since birth, and going on an endlessly repeated home-video tape loop from grade school to puberty to Olympic medals, skating together all the way. Also tonight, on NBC in prime time, host Bob Costas is expected back, after missing his first stretch of Olympics coverage since 1988, because of an eye infection. For live coverage of all events, go to NBCOlympics.com.

VERONICA GUERIN

The Movie Channel, 8:00 p.m. ET

This 2003 movie tells an intense and interesting true story, about a persistent newspaper crime reporter in Dublin whose efforts to cover the expanding drug trade in her country made her the target of vengeful drug lords. An additional reason to see the movie at this point in time, though, is because the title role, in this seldom televised movie, is played by Cate Blanchett, up for another Oscar this year for her brilliant work in Woody Allen’s Blue Jasmine.

THE MUSIC MAN

TCM, 10:00 p.m. ET

Can’t help it. I love this movie, and I love whenever TCM televises it, because it’s at the proper screen ratio, and presented uninterrupted. Robert Preston and Shirley Jones star, with ample support from a totally charming barbershop quartet. "Lida Rose, I’m home again, Rose…"

INSIDE COMEDY

Showtime, 11:00 p.m. ET

Tonight, David Steinberg focuses on two comedians who have established themselves as dramatic actors as well: Bette Midler, who’s as strong a singer as she is an actor and joke-teller, and Richard Belzer, a standup comic who made the transition to dramatic acting in general, and decades of playing Det. John Munch in particular.

THE TONIGHT SHOW STARRING JIMMY FALLON

NBC, 12:00 a.m. ET

SERIES PREMIERE: Watch and record this, because it’s a little piece of instant TV history. It’s the first time The Tonight Show has emanated from New York since Johnny Carson departed for California in 1972, and the first Tonight Show hosted by Jimmy Fallon – performing in the same 30 Rock studio that once housed Carson and, before him, Jack Paar. Tonight, Tonight starts another chapter in its long, impressive history, which began nationally on NBC in 1954. Opening-night scheduled guests: Will Smith and U2.
