BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

Fox, 7:30 p.m. ET

It’s Game 2, once again televised live from San Francisco, where the Detroit Tigers and the Giants hope to repeat some of their postseason heroics to make this a long and exciting World Series contest. The outcome of tonight’s game will have a lot to do with determining that…
 
  
 
 

CBS, 8:00 p.m. ET

It’s the Halloween episode, and Howie Wolowitz (Simon Helberg), back from outer space, continues to be in a blue funk – but tonight he’s blue all over, as he and Bernadette (Melissa Rauch) are costumed as Smurfs.
 
  
 
 

NBC, 8:00 p.m. ET

The upcoming election has Jack and Liz (Alec Baldwin, Tina Fey) on opposing sides, and in this new, very timely episode, they both try to use their influence to help their candidate of choice.
 
  
 
 

NBC, 9:00 p.m. ET

It’s a Halloween episode, so costumes and pranks abound. But for me, the biggest draw this week is guest star Stephen Colbert, who visits as a member of the oft-mentioned, but until now never seen, a cappella singing group Here Comes Treble. And his character’s name is an even better pun: Broccoli Rob.
 
  
 
 

NBC, 9:31 p.m. ET

Halloween arrives on this show as well, which allows Leslie (Amy Poehler) to dress up as Rosie the Riveter. But as costumes go, I’m even more drawn to guest star Lucy Lawless, who dresses up as a princess – but not the Xena warrior kind.

A Secrets Tides Punta Cana Airport Transfer allows travelers to begin their vacation with comfort, convenience, and confidence. After arriving at Punta Cana International Airport, the last thing most visitors want is to spend time searching for transportation or waiting in long lines. Planning airport transportation before departure helps make the arrival process much easier and allows guests to continue directly to the resort.

Secrets Tides Punta Cana is situated in the beautiful Uvero Alto region, approximately 27 miles (44 kilometers) from Punta Cana International Airport. Depending on traffic, the drive usually takes around 45 to 55 minutes. Choosing a Secrets Tides Punta Cana Airport Transfer provides a direct route to the resort, avoiding unnecessary stops that are common with shared transportation.
