BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

CBS, 8:00 p.m. ET

This new episode is about Dungeons and Dragons, the revered fantasy game of this show’s coterie of geeks. But because these are the final episodes of this long-running series, expect even some standard-sounding plots to sport some treats and surprises. Like, for example, tonight’s unexpected special guest (pictured)…

 
  
 
 

Fox, 8:00 p.m. ET

Tonight’s new episode is called “Ace Chemicals,” which means, at long last, we should be arriving at the point in the Batman story line in which a chemical accident results in the creation of the frozen-faced villain known as the Joker. But will it be Jeremiah, as played by Cameron Monaghan – who also has played Jeremiah’s now-dead (we think) twin brother, who finally ascends to Joker status by descending into that bubbling vat of chemicals? It should be, because as with The Big Bang Theory, we’re down to the final half-season, so anything can, and should, happen…

 
  
 
 

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

Two great, and classic, Fellini movies are presented tonight as a prime-time TCM double feature: 1963’s 8 ½, starring Marcello Mastroianni (pictured), followed by an earlier classic, 1954’s La Strada. Which begs the question: If two Italian films comprise a Fellini festival, would a single film be considered a Fellinus?

 

 
  
 
 

Pop, 10:00 p.m. ET

SERIES PREMIERE: This six-episode limited series is about a publicist who protects her clients from all sorts of things, including themselves. Anna Paquin stars, which automatically makes this worth sampling – and if you think of her character, in this dark dramedy, as a sort of female, show-biz Ray Donovan, so much the better. For a full review, see David Hinckley's All Along the Watchtower
