BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

WE TV, 10:00 a.m. ET

Today in 1988, on October 18, ABC premiered Roseanne, starring Roseanne Barr, and ushered in another of TV’s influential, significant family sitcoms. Today in 2013, starting at 10 a.m. ET, We TV presents a seven-hour marathon of its favorite Roseanne episodes. The action begins with a pair of episodes from the show’s first year – so watch for George Clooney, who was a cast member the first few seasons, playing one of the co-workers at Roseanne’s factory. ER and fame, at that point, were still six years away.

 
  
 
 

TBS, 8:30 p.m. ET

Game 6. The St. Louis Cardinals are ahead in this series 3-2, but the Los Angeles Dodgers, fighting to come from behind, can tie the NLCS tonight – or lose it all. And for this game, the Cards have home-field advantage.

 
  
 
 

PBS, 9:00 p.m. ET

Taped at Lincoln Center last year, this salute to Great Performances is a mix of stories (from Julie Andrews and others) and performances (Audra McDonald, Izhtak Perlman, and many, many others), all in honor of this long-running, culturally valuable PBS arts anthology series. Check local listings.

 
  
 
 

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

This 1998 movie, a very clever, very sexy crime story, showed us the sparkling side of three different artists. George Clooney plays a bank robber with personal ethics and lots of personal charisma. Jennifer Lopez plays Karen Sisco, a U.S. marshal who gets her man, in more ways than one. And the movie is based on a novel by Elmore Leonard, whose writings subsequently inspired two TV series: Karen Sisco, a short-lived ABC spinoff starring Carla Gugino, and the superb Justified, the FX series starring Timothy Olyphant as another member of the U.S. marshal service.

 
  
 
 

Syfy, 10:00 p.m. ET

Audrey (Emily Rose) is back in Haven now, but not as Audrey – she’s convinced she’s another woman entirely, a sassy bartender named Lexie. And given how strange things are, and get, in Haven, perhaps she’s right…
