BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 
2018 WINTER OLYMPIC GAMES

Various Networks, 2:40 a.m. ET

NBCSN’s big event today is the women’s ice hockey gold medal game, which will be televised live during the 10:45 p.m.-2 a.m. ET block. It’s a big event because the USA women’s team is vying for the gold. And earlier, much earlier, the USA Network shows the women’s ice hockey bronze medal game, in a live telecast from 2:30-5 a.m. ET. Also today, on NBCSN and elsewhere on cable, more curling!!  On NBCSN, there’s delayed coverage of men’s curling, with matches featuring the USA vs. Great Britain at both 5-7:10 a.m. ET and 1:30-5 p.m. ET. And for women’s curling, CNBC has USA vs. Sweden from 5-8 p.m. ET, while NBCSN has Canada vs. the Olympic Athletes from Russia from 7-10:45 p.m. ET. And for live coverage of this and other sports today, there’s always NBC’s Olympics website.

 
  
 
 
2018 WINTER OLYMPIC GAMES

NBC, 3:00 p.m. ET

Tonight, during NBC’s 8-11 p.m. ET prime-time block: live coverage of the first slalom run in men’s alpine skiing, and live coverage of the gold medal final in halfpipe in men’s freestyle skiing. And later, in the 11:35 p.m.-12:30 a.m. ET late-night block, NBC plans coverage of the final gold medal slalom run in men’s alpine skiing.

 
  
 
 
THE X-FILES

Fox, 8:00 p.m. ET

Opposite the Olympics, Fox is repeating a recent episode of The X-Files, but it’s my favorite episode in years – so if you didn’t see “The Lost Art of Forehead Sweat” when it was broadcast recently, directed and co-written by the delightfully twisted Darin Morgan, here’s another opportunity. Don’t miss it, because this episode begins with a Twilight Zone-like black-and-white sequence featuring a mysterious alien – and from that point on, never stops the weirdness. Brian Huskey guest stars as Reggie Something, the forgotten founding member of The X-Files – or was he?

 
  
 
 
NATURE: "THE LAST RHINO"

PBS, 8:00 p.m. ET

The title of this week’s new Nature installment is anything but hyperbole. Sudan, pictured here, is the very last male Northern White Rhinoceros known to exist on the planet. (There’s a mother-daughter pair, but neither can raise young.) Sudan is 43 years old, with an ancestry that goes back five million years – and teams of biologists, zoologists and other scientists are searching frantically for a way to prolong the species while caring for Sudan. Check local listings.

 
  
 
 
THE THREE FACES OF EVE

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

Tonight TCM is saluting Best Actress Academy Award winners in its ongoing “31 Days of Oscar” TV parade. Joanne Woodward won one Oscar, in this 1957 fact-based psychological study, for playing three roles – confused Eve White, saucy Eve Black, and more “normal” Jane – in this drama about a woman claiming to have multiple personalities. Almost 20 years later, Woodward went to the other side of the therapy net, and played a psychiatrist treating a similarly splintered woman, played by Sally Field, in the TV miniseries Sybil.
 
  
 
 
BORN YESTERDAY

TCM, 9:45 p.m. ET

Another Best Actress winner: In 1950, Judy Holliday reprised for film her triumphant Broadway role as Billie Dawn, the former Brooklyn showgirl turned mistress of a junk-dealer mobster named Harry Brock, played by Broderick Crawford. In this Garson Kanin comedy, the gangster has put hidden millions in his mistress’ name, and suddenly has to marry her to protect his cash. So he decides on forcing her to take a Pygmalion-style crash course in refinement, with William Holden as the guy hired to polish her edges. And what edges. George Cukor directs, and Holliday is a hoot.
