BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

Hulu, 3:00 a.m. ET

This week’s newly streamed episode of The Handmaid’s Tale involves a political visit by the Mexican delegation – one that provides Serena Joy, played by Yvonne Strahovski, with the chance to display her importance, including her control over her handmaids. But she, too, is a woman, which makes her power play somewhat tenuous in this future society, where most women have been stripped of position, power, and many other freedoms. Elisabeth Moss stars as Offred, one of the handmaids in Serena Joy’s oppressive “care.”

 
  
 
 

ABC, 9:00 p.m. ET

SEASON FINALE: This is the Season 10 finale, which is quite an impressive run for a broadcast TV series – and Modern Family isn’t through yet, and still is a very funny sitcom. In tonight’s episode, Manny reaches graduation day – an occasion significant enough to warrant the return of Manny’s biological father, played, once again, by recurring guest star Benjamin Bratt.

 
  
 
 

PBS, 10:00 p.m. ET

SERIES PREMIERE: This new three-part series, hosted by Michael Mosley and James Wong, explores the science behind food – why we crave the foods we do, why cooking foods certain ways accomplishes certain things chemically, and so much more. In Episode 1, “Food on the Brain,” the questions explored include why we are what we eat, why we eat, and why, in some cases, we overeat. Check local listings.

 
  
 
 

FX, 10:00 p.m. ET

Last week, Ray Stussy tried to steal his older brother’s valuable postage stamp by donning a wig and shaving his facial hair, to look more like brother Emmit – and then to talk and bully his way into his brother’s safety deposit box. That ruse worked, but the stamp wasn’t there. So tonight, Ray dons the wig again, to carry out another half-baked (or quarter-baked) scheme: filming a blackmail sex tape, with Ray’s “Emmit” being shown in a compromising position. Ewan McGregor plays both brothers, and is playing them very, very entertainingly.

 
  
 
 

IFC, 10:00 p.m. ET

SEASON FINALE: Brockmire ends its first season tonight with some very good news: There will be a second season, because Brockmire has turned out to be IFC’s highest-rated new show. Hank Azaria, Amanda Peet star.

Bu web sitesi tam bir felaket. Sanki 2005'te tasarlanmis ve hiç güncellenmemis gibi. Sayfalarin yüklenmesi sonsuza kadar sürüyor, baglantilarin yarisi bozuk ve düzen hiç mantikli degil. Bir seyler yapmaya çalisarak bir saatten fazla zaman harcadim ve sonra hayal kirikligiyla pes ettim. Dürüst olmak gerekirse, bu bir saka.

Insanlarin zamanini çaliyorlar. Üyelik, onay, belge derken bonusu almak mucize.

Destek ekibi ilgisiz, bonusu alamayinca sorumluluk almiyorlar. Kalitesiz bir site.

Bu site tam bir karmasa. Yavas, aksak ve açikça sifir çabayla yapilmis. Bunu tasarlayan kisi açikça kullanici deneyimini düsünmemis. Çevrimiçi olarak basit bir sey yapmaya çalisirken hiç bu kadar sinirlenmemistim. Tamamen ise yaramaz ve kimsenin zamanina degmez.

Birçok bahis sitesi kullandim, ancak bu en yaniltici olanin tacini aliyor. 'Ücretsiz bonus'? Daha çok sahte bir yem gibi. Igrenç taktikler.

With a quick visit to the kinogoby website, I stumbled upon a collection of documentaries that promised to enlighten and inspire. Intrigued by the prospect of delving into the depths of human experience, I selected a film that explored the wonders of the natural world

Bu site, bonus saglayicisi kiligina girmis tam bir dolandiricilik. Asla gelmeyen sözde 'ücretsiz' bir bonus için çemberlerden atliyorsunuz. Tam bir çöp.
