BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

Various Networks, 10:00 a.m. ET

Today and tomorrow are the final days of the Group Stage, when teams will either advance to the Round of 16, or go home. Games are played simultaneously, with coverage divided between Fox and Fox Sports 1. Today at 10 a.m. ET, Fox presents Mexico vs. Sweden: Mexico (pictured) has won both its previous matches, while fellow Group F squad Sweden has won one and lost one. On Fox Sports, also from Group F, it’s Germany vs. South Korea. Germany has the same record as Sweden, while South Korea is 0-2, playing more of a potential spoiler role. Then at 2 p.m. ET, it’s back to Group E. On Fox, it’s Brazil vs. Serbia. Brazil, right now, is tied at the top of its group with Switzerland, as both teams have won one game, and ended the other game with a draw. Serbia has one win and one loss, and needs to win today to overturn the current ranking. And on Fox Sports 1, it’s Switzerland vs. Costa Rica. The latter, with two losses, already has been eliminated.

 
  
 
 

TCM, 12:30 p.m. ET

Last month, Amazon presented an involving, well-acted new miniseries version of Picnic at Hanging Rock, expanding upon the story told in Peter Weir’s atmospheric, influential 1975 Australian film. Whether or not you’ve seen the miniseries, you should make an effort to see this telecast of Weir’s version, starring Rachel Roberts (pictured) as the imperious, mysterious Mrs. Appleyard. And watch for a young Jacki Weaver, now co-starring in Netflix’s Secret City miniseries, as Minnie.

 
  
 
 

PBS, 9:00 p.m. ET

From Beaumont, TX (pictured) to Puerto Rico, the devastation caused by hurricanes has been horrific. This new NOVA asks, however, whether Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria have something else in common – something that will make similar “superstorms” even more common. Check local listings.

Pelayanan paling anjing yang pernah kami alami. Setelah uang masuk, sikap berubah total. Komplain diabaikan, solusi tidak ada, dan tanggung jawab nol besar.

Hei bajingan, pergilah dan tiduri kuda yang kau tunggangi itu, lalu tinggalkan komunitas cinta dan damai yang berfokus pada TV ini.

Hormat saya,
