BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

NFC CHAMPIONSHIP: NEW ORLEANS SAINTS VS. LOS ANGELES RAMS

Fox, 3:00 p.m. ET

TRUE DETECTIVE

HBO, 9:00 p.m. ET

CRASHING

HBO, 10:00 p.m. ET

SEASON PREMIERE: Pete Holmes returns with his comedy series about a standup comic trying to make it – a sort of male, current Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, with a self-deprecating edge and a more realistic sense of the comedy club world than most shows of this type. Judd Apatow is involved, so that’s not surprising. But when Pete returns from the college tour to New York, his trajectory is surprising…
