BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 
11.22.63

Hulu, 12:00 a.m. ET

Episode number three of this Stephen King series, or miniseries, is unspooled today, as Hulu hangs on to its experimental model of presenting one installment each Monday rather than dropping the entire season at once. Previous episodes, if you need to catch up, are available (as is this new one) at the Hulu website. James Franco as a man who travels back in time hoping to prevent the John F. Kennedy assassination.

 
  
 
 
GOTHAM

Fox, 8:00 p.m. ET

MIDSEASON RETURN: Penguin is incarcerated for the murder of Galavan, but that doesn’t mean there’s one less bad guy on the streets of Gotham. There’s a new villain in town, and it looks like, very soon, he’ll be going by the familiar name of Mr. Freeze.

 
  
 
 
THE VOICE

NBC, 8:00 p.m. ET

CYCLE PREMIERE: Go-around number 10 of The Voice begins, and this time the blonde on the judging team is Christina Aguilera. She sits in one of the red chairs, as Pharrell, Blake Shelton and Adam Levine nestle into the others. These initial rounds of The Voice are the show’s best, invariably – so if you still enjoy this show and these hosts, now is the time to tune in.

 
  
 
 
HE NAMED ME MALALA

National Geographic, 8:00 p.m. ET

Malala Yousafzai, whom you probably remember doing the rounds on Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert’s shows, and charming them both, is profiled in this 2015 documentary, which explains how – and, more inspirationally, why – this young woman became a Nobel Peace Prize winner and an international activist. For a full review, see Alex Strachan’s TV That Matters.

 
  
 
 
MAVIS!

HBO, 9:00 p.m. ET

This 2015 documentary, with its healthy doses of musical clips, presents a biography of soul singer and sometimes activist Mavis Staples, and her musical family, the Staple Singers.

 
  
 
 
BETTER CALL SAUL

AMC, 10:00 p.m. ET

I’ve had such a packed week, I haven’t found the time yet to see last week’s episode of my favorite TV show of the moment, Better Call Saul. So don’t expect info on the latest, because I don’t know it…
