BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

Fox, 8:00 p.m. ET

It’s all tied up again – each team has won two games in this year’s World Series, and the next team to repeat that feat will emerge as the baseball champions of 2014. The San Francisco Giants, having won handily last night to make things even, has one more home-field advantage game by the bay before Game 6 returns to Kansas City and the Royals’ home base for what could be the deciding game
 
  
 
 

AMC, 9:00 p.m. ET

It seemed as though our hardy band of heroes, by escaping their cannibal captors, destroying the villains’ headquarters and spreading out into the woods, had gotten a leg up on their adversaries. But by the end of last week’s episode, just the opposite proved to be true: the bad guys had resurfaced, with an appetite for vengeance and more – while one of our favorite characters woke up to find himself not a leg up – but one leg down. Grisly. And gristly.

 
  
 
 

Showtime, 9:00 p.m. ET

Homeland threw another curve at viewers last week, revealing that the pivot point of this season’s central plot – the accidental killing of Pakistani civilians at a wedding during the targeting of a high-ranking terrorist on the CIA’s kill list – may, like the embarrassing international incident itself, may be rife with bad intelligence. As in: the dead terrorist may not be dead after all, which leads to all sorts of other questions about who’s deceiving whom.

 
  
 
 

CBS, 9:30 p.m. ET

What a beautiful ending to last week’s show: Alicia (Julianna Margulies) takes to the podium, in front of the press, to announce her candidacy, while husband Peter (Chris Noth) arrives at the last minute to stand by her side. It was a role-reversal image of how The Good Wife started back in 2009 – and the episode ended with the media covering the press conference jumping all over that contrasting pair of images. It was a reminder of how far Alicia has come – and, at the same time, a reminder of how outstanding this program has been at evolving as it entertains and surprises.

 
  
 
 

Showtime, 10:00 p.m. ET

If you’ve been with this series for two weeks now, you get the idea: This story is being told through a prism, and each person’s perspective bends the light in a different way, coloring everything from the memory of events to the depiction of costumes and facial expressions. What a subtle, daring central idea for a TV series. If you don’t watch closely, you’ll miss the best parts. So watch closely. It’s worth it.

Birçok bahis sitesi kullandim, ancak bu en yaniltici olanin tacini aliyor. 'Ücretsiz bonus'? Daha çok sahte bir yem gibi. Igrenç taktikler.

Ne saka ama. Sizi gösterisli bonus vaatleriyle cezbediyorlar, sonra da üzerinize imkansiz kurallardan olusan bir duvar örüyorlar. Burada zamaninizi bosa harcamayin.
