BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

ABC, 8:00 p.m. ET

Last night marked the Season 2 premiere of this fast-moving quiz show, with Jeopardy! Champ Ken Jennings as the season’s first contestant (pictured), trying to answer 500 questions without giving three wrong answers in a row. Imagine how surprised Jennings was, not to mention ABC, when he was eliminated after a total of four questions. Yikes. It’s an entertaining game, and a game in which a contestant’s age, or youth, can be either an asset or a definite liability. Tonight: More contestants, but no more Ken Jennings.

BATTLE OF THE BULGE

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

Beginning with this 1965 film starring Henry Fonda, TCM devotes the entire weekend to war movies, in honor of Memorial Day. Tune in any time, and see a film, many of them classics, dramatizing one war or another. It’s impressive that there are so many watchable war movies – but sad, if you think about it another way, that there have been so many wars.

ALICE IN WONDERLAND

TNT, 8:00 p.m. ET

The sequel to this 2010 movie, Alice Through the Looking Glass, opens today – so if you’re planning on going later this weekend, TNT is offering a refresher by repeating this six-year-old Tim Burton adaptation of the Lewis Carroll classic. Mia Wasikowska stars as Alice – then and now.

20/20

ABC, 10:00 p.m. ET

The latest promos for this week’s 20/20 promise a special report devoted to the latest events regarding the court case against Bill Cosby, with room in the hour for testimony from other women, whose accounts may or may not be heard in the eventual court case.

Manusia sampah sejati, memangsa orang-orang tak berdosa hanya untuk mengisi kantong mereka yang serakah. Sungguh memalukan.
