BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

NBC, 8:00 p.m. ET

I’m not sure why, to be honest, but this year’s edition of The Voice has been the most emotionally satisfying and vocally impressive yet. The contestants have unusually compelling voices, and stories, this season, which is a large part of it – but the judges, too, seem to be having an especially good time this year. And based on the promos, tonight’s the night Pharrell , Christina Aguilera and especially Adam Levine tease fellow judge Blake Shelton about his “girlfriend,” sometime judge (and, this cycle, Shelton’s guest mentor for his team of singers) Gwen Stefani.

 
  
 
 

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

Jack Lemmon stars in this 1960 Best Picture Oscar-winner, playing the absolute definition of a company player: He’s an office worker who makes his New York apartment available to his corporate bosses for their clandestine romantic trysts. Directed by Billy Wilder, and co-starring, in a strong early role, Shirley MacLaine.

 
  
 
 

ABC, 9:00 p.m. ET

This season’s already confusing story line gets even more confusing, as the conspiracy and the villainy goes international. Two team members are hidden aboard a flight that follows Malick and his evil crew all the way to Russia, where even more inhumans await.

 
  
 
 

NBC, 9:00 p.m. ET

SERIES PREMIERE: This is a warning, not a recommendation. There are roles and series in which I’ve really liked Melissa George, but not this time. She plays a heart surgeon who can do no wrong, in or out of the operating room, and barrels through every scene like Dr. House on high heels. It doesn’t work – though NBC’s plan, of giving it a sneak preview right after tonight’s edition of The Voice, just might. For a full review, see Ed Bark’s Uncle Barky’s Bytes.

 
  
 
 

FX, 10:00 p.m. ET

Episode 8. In last week’s episode, the glove didn’t fit – giving defense attorney Johnnie Cochran half of his trial-winning rhyming couplet. And yet, at this point in the narrative, there remain three full episodes to go. What’s left? Tonight, we see things from the point of view of the jurors, who are of the general opinion that they’ve been sequestered quite long enough.
