BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

PBS, 9:00 p.m. ET

This documentary is about the recently discovered escape tunnel, dug by Jewish prisoners scheduled for execution by Nazis, in the Lithuanian city of Vilna. Consider it, if you must (but you shouldn’t), the site of one of those recently cited “Holocaust centers.” Check local listings. For a full review, see David Hinckley's All Along the Watchtower.
 
  
 
 

ABC, 10:00 p.m. ET

In tonight’s episode, President Tom Kirkman (Kiefer Sutherland) has to force his hand to get his way assembling a new U.S. Supreme Court. Sound familiar?
 
  
 
 

FX, 10:00 p.m. ET

SEASON PREMIERE: This is Season 3 for Noah Hawley’s reimagining of the Coen Brothers Fargo ethos – the third time he’s started from scratch and introduced a new setting, plot, and cast of characters. And for the third time, based on tonight’s kickoff episode, he’s struck gold yet again. Ewan McGregor, in a dual role as very different brothers Emmit and Ray Stussy, is amazingly good, twice. And Mary Elizabeth Winstead, as Ray’s ex-con girlfriend and aspiring competitive bridge player, is a scene-stealer from the start, and not just because of her swagger and wardrobe. Oh, and there’s a death scene in tonight’s opener you simply can’t miss. For my full review, listen today to NPR’s Fresh Air with Terry Gross, or, later on, visit the Fresh Air website. And for full reviews here on TVWW, see Ed Bark's Uncle Barky's Bytes and David Hinckley's All Along the Watchtower, as well as a preview of the season from Noah Hawley by David Hinckley.
 
  
 
 

FXX, 10:00 p.m. ET

The film noir coma dream by Archer (J. Jon Benjamin) continues, with Archer and all his colleagues trapped in an alternate reality with different settings and identities. Hey, wait a second… except for the film noir part, isn’t that exactly what’s going on right now on ABC’s Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.? Except that on that show, the hero isn’t driving around with a beautiful redhead and a dead body.

 
  
 
 

IFC, 10:00 p.m. ET

In the premiere episode of this very funny new IFC series, Hank Azaria’s Brockmire was introduced in a flashback meltdown, having just discovered his wife having extramarital sex, then railing about it on the baseball public address system where he was a booth announcer. His wife, Lucy, had decided to adopt a very “free” lifestyle – and after they split up, Brockmire had spent the better part of a decade overseas and on a bender. But now he’s back, working at a minor-league ball club – and tonight, someone else is returning, too. It’s his ex-wife Lucy, played by Katie Finneran of Bloodline, with all her wild and crazy friends in tow, and in the bleachers.
