BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

CW, 8:00 p.m. ET

One of the reasons the CW reboot of this series is so welcome, and so entertaining, these days: How many other programs on TV, especially on broadcast television, can be considered appropriate, enjoyable family viewing? This improv series is, quite simply, a ridiculous amount of fun. Tonight, the guest star is Kyle Richards, who joins in on the frivolities.

 
  
 
 

PBS, 10:00 p.m. ET

One interview subject in this new documentary says simply, “Assisted living is the rock we don’t want to look under.” Tonight’s Frontline looks under that rock, examining conditions at this largely unregulated alternative to nursing homes – and asking questions about both costs and care. Check local listings.

 
  
 
 

Comedy Central, 10:00 p.m. ET

Winona Rider, who starred in the 1996 movie version of The Crucible, again dons puritan garb, but this time for laughs. She’s one of the guest stars (Michael Cera is another) featured in skits enacting the inebriated storytelling on tonight’s Drunk History, focused on Boston.

 
  
 
 

TCM, 10:00 p.m. ET

Made in 1942, during WWII, this drama has grown in stature to be considered not just one of the best wartime movies ever made, but one of the best movies, period. And it is. Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman and Paul Heinreid star as one of cinema’s most famous romantic triangles – and Claude Rains (pictured) as the kind of guy anyone would like to call a friend.

 
  
 
 

Showtime, 11:00 p.m. ET

“Who Doesn’t Love Musicals?” is the title of tonight’s episode – which means, I’m pleased to report, we’ll get more of Megan Mullally as Franny, who’s writing a Broadway musical about Fiona (Lisa Kudrow) and has agreed to accept some of Fiona’s input. With Whose Line Is It Anyway also on TV, this show makes Tuesdays an especially good night for fans of improvisational comedy.

Speaking of finding reliable information, I've been doing some research lately on platforms that are actually straightforward about their terms. It's amazing how much difference it makes when everything is clearly displayed upfront, especially with minimums and processing times. I came across https://thor-fortunes.org/ while comparing options, and the way they lay out their cashier details in EUR makes it easy to understand exactly what to expect before committing.
