BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

ABC, 9:00 p.m. ET

Game 1. After all the playoffs, injuries, subplots and surprises, this year’s NBA Finals will feature the same two teams as last year: the defending champions the Golden State Warriors, with Stephan Curry, and the Cleveland Cavaliers, with LeBron James. Both superstars have won NBA Finals before, but James has yet to help win one for his original NBA team. Curry, on he other hand, has played the type of three-point offense, full-court defense that has transformed the modern game. Good drama, and players, on both sides.

 
  
 
 

A&E, Lifetime, History, 9:00 p.m. ET

MINISERIES CONCLUSION: Part 4 of 4. The retelling of Alex Haley’s family saga concludes tonight, with an episode that follows yet another generation – and does so with Chicken George (Regé-Jean Page) returning from England to try and find his family. For reviews, hear my report for NPR’s Fresh Air with Terry Gross on the Fresh Air website, and read our TVWW contributors’ reviews on Ed Bark’s Uncle Barky’s Bytes and David Hinckley’s All Along the Watchtower.
 
  
 
 

CNN, 9:00 p.m. ET

Let’s try one more time: Supposedly, tonight’s new installment of The Eighties is about the AIDS crisis. But this time around, CNN’s look at a particular decade has been a slippery show to wrangle, with all its pre-emptions and substitutions thus far. Last week’s episode was indeed the one promised in listings, so maybe lightning will strike, or fail to strike, two times in a row.

 
  
 
 

BBC America, 10:00 p.m. ET

In this week’s episode, Donnie (Kristian Bruun) goes to prison – and orange definitely is not his color.

 
  
 
 

BBC America, 11:30 p.m. ET

Tonight’s scheduled guests: Matt LeBlanc, who just started hosting Top Gear this week, along with Emelia Clarke, Kate Beckinsale, Dominic Cooper, and musical performer Corinne Bailey Rae.
