BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

CBS, 8:00 p.m. ET

Sheldon and Leonard take a road trip that finds them on the grounds of Skywalker Ranch, the northern California home base of their Star Wars creator-hero, George Lucas. This may or may not result in a Lucas cameo appearance, because these guys might not get anywhere near the actual owner of the Ranch. In fact, even in the promos, Sheldon gets tasered as Leonard watches from the car, so it’s even money…

 
  
 
 

ABC, 10:00 p.m. ET

Carter and Aubry reunite in tonight’s episode, but it’s not exactly a smooth reunion for the down-and-out lovers. He’s out on recognizance, with an electronic ankle-bracelet monitor – and while he’s sleeping, she cuts it off. (The bracelet, not the ankle, but it’s still a bold, bad move.)

 
  
 
 

NBC, 10:00 p.m. ET

SERIES FINALE: If you’ve stayed with this American remake of the Australian miniseries throughout, this is your final reward. Well, it’s the final episode, anyway.

 
  
 
 

FX, 10:00 p.m. ET

SEASON FINALE: Part 2 of 2. Even in miniaturized form, Archer and company can get into some big trouble. Exhibit B: This concluding portion of the season finale.

 
  
 
 

Spike, 10:00 p.m. ET

SERIES PREMIERE: Jimmy Fallon’s “Lip Sync Battle” started on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, the brainchild of guest John Krasinski, his wife Emily Blunt, and their friend, Office co-creator Stephen Merchant. When Fallon inherited The Tonight Show, he brought the “Lip Sync Battle” concept with him, and it’s been a huge hit on YouTube, as exemplified by this sample, presented last month on TVWW’s Video Worth Watching. And now, those segments have turned into a spinoff show, with Fallon and his co-conspirators all making early appearances as guests, and with Grammys host LL Cool J doing the same here. This time around, there are costumes and backup dancers, but it’s still the same old silliness – which means it might be worth your while to find out if you have Spike, and where it is on your cable or satellite roster. Two episodes are shown tonight back-to-back, and in the first, Fallon himself is a contestant, going head to head with Dwayne Johnson. Both take on anthems from female pop stars: Fallon lip-syncs to Madonna’s “Like a Prayer,” and Johnson, a.k.a. The Rock, to Taylor Swift’s “Shake It Off.”

Nice post. I learn some thing more difficult on various blogs everyday. It will always be stimulating you just read content using their company writers and use a little something from their site. I'd prefer to use some with all the content in my small weblog no matter whether you don't mind. Natually I'll provide you with a link on the internet weblog. Many thanks sharing
