BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

Sundance, 7:45 p.m. ET

This 1990 movie, based on a Stephen King story and directed by Rob Reiner, gave King another mainstream movie hit – and made a star of Kathy Bates, as the fan of a novelist (James Caan)  who ends up holding him captive after finding him in a car accident. One scene in this movie version became iconic, but I don’t intend to hammer home the point.

 
  
 
 

CBS, 8:00 p.m. ET

Sheldon is known to drone on on occasion – but on this particular occasion, he and Wolowitz can’t get a drone to fly, which leads to all sorts of problems.

 
  
 
 

ABC, 10:01 p.m. ET

Grey’s Anatomy and Scandal are the ABC shows that are getting the most press and attention as their seasons wind up, but this is the show that deserves the most attention. Stay with it, and be rewarded with a drama that is thoughtful as well as entertaining.

 
  
 
 

FX, 10:00 p.m. ET

On tonight’s episode, the strongest one to date, Billy and Josh get stoned on the way to a red-carpet event, and take a detour that ends up getting them into more than a little bit of trouble.

 
  
 
 

FX, 10:30 p.m. ET

Tonight’s Louie contains a scene that’s absolutely brilliant: Louie (Louis C.K.) asks a young kitchenware store employee (played by Clara Wong) to open a locked case and show him some expensive cookware. She demurs, because she’s about to close, which launches Louie into a mild tirade about the new generation. But instead of taking it, she offers a sizzling rebuttal – one which is so unexpected, and funny, it shows why Louie is such a great TV comedy. And the episode has barely begun…
