BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

Hulu, 3:00 a.m. ET

SERIES PREMIERE: Hulu is presenting new episodes of this gripping, disturbing drama miniseries on a weekly basis, so if you were drawn to and impressed by last week’s premiere, as I was, remember to watch the next new installment today. Patricia Arquette stars as Dee Dee, who has a very protective relationship with her infirm daughter Gypsy (Joey King). It’s like a thematic sequel to HBO’s Sharp Objects, and is just as forcefully acted.

 
  
 
 

FX, 10:00 p.m. ET

SERIES PREMIERE: If you saw the 2014 comedy vampire film of the same name, you know what to expect here. Otherwise, you’re in for a delightful surprise. The movie starred, and was written and directed by, Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi, who played vampires in New Zealand tolerating each other, barely, while living the undead life in modern-day Wellington. For the series, there are new stars, and a new locale – Staten Island – but the faux documentary approach is just as funny. Imagine a vampire series crossed with The Office, then sit back, watch, and enjoy. For my review on NPR’s Fresh Air with Terry Gross, visit the Fresh Air website. And for full reviews here on TVWW, read Ed Bark's Uncle Barky's Bytes and David Hinckley's All Along the Watchtower.

 
  
 
 

IFC, 11:00 p.m. ET

SEASON FINALE: The last Documentary Now! of the season brings its own spin to the bowling documentary, as exemplified by 2006’s A League of Ordinary Gentlemen. And in what may be the most enjoyable bowling outing since The Big Lebowski, the featured “bowler” in tonight’s program is played by… Michael C. Hall.  It’s Dexter in the lanes! Cleanup on Aisle Five!
