BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

Fox Sports 1, 12:00 p.m. ET

Today marks the beginning of the 2015 U.S. Open Golf tournament, taking place, this year, on the West Coast, on a course that’s new, treacherous, and more like a British links course than a well-groomed American one. In other words, should be fun. Fox Sports begins coverage at noon ET, and continues until the regular Fox network takes over at 8 ET. For a full preview, see Gerald Jordan’s Crossing Jordan.
 
  
 
 

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

TCM is promoting tonight’s six-movie lineup as its one-night exercise in “Bugging Out” – presenting sci-fi movies featuring killer insects. The night begins with the original 1958 version of The Fly (“Help meeeee! Help meeee!”), followed at 9:45 p.m. ET by 1961’s original Mothra, one of the first Japanese horror films I ever saw, about a giant moth and – for some reason – some high-pitched girls (pictured) who, well, just watch. There’s no easy way to explain any of this.

 
  
 
 

CNN, 9:00 p.m. ET

Part 2. Tonight’s installment is called United States vs. Nixon, and devotes an hour to one of the most important events of the Seventies: Watergate and its political and social aftermath. Turns out our President was a crook – and our country has never been the same. Neither has the English language, which has fallen into a knee-jerk reliance upon one particular controversy-labeling suffix that we may as well give up and call Gategate.

 
  
 
 

NBC, 10:00 p.m. ET

Tonight’s episode gets seriously global. Not only is Hannibal in Italy, but now so is Jack, who’s hot on his trail. Also on his trail, though a little colder of one, is Will, whose search takes him to Hannibal’s boyhood home of Lithuania. What? You were expecting Hannibal, Missouri?

 
  
 
 

History, 10:03 p.m. ET

SERIES PREMIERE: NOT a recommendation: In this new reality competition series, ten survival experts are dropped off, individually, to survive in isolation until all but one of them calls the whole thing off. The idea of an extended “social experiment” – or, in this case, an “anti-social” one – sure worked well for Fox’s Utopia, so why not try it again? And for a channel named History, this may be the series in its history that has less to do with the channel’s original mandate than any other… What does Alone have to do with history? Other than that, I suspect, that’s what it soon will be. History.

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.
