BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

This month, TCM is highlighting, among other things, a run of “Creature Feature” movies. Tonight’s lineup, for example, includes 1933’s classic King Kong at 11:15 p.m. ET, and 1962’s campier Mothra at 1:15 p.m. ET. The prime-time evening salute begins, at 8 p.m. ET, with a showing of 1954’s Creature from the Black Lagoon. Perhaps it’s time, after all these years, to imagine alternative climaxes for these films – newly imaginative ways to conquer their titular creatures. With Mothra and its giant moth, for example, why not just lure it to its death by erecting, and illuminating, a giant porch light? As for how to get rid of the Creature from the Black Lagoon in these modern times? That’s even easier: Drain the swamp.

 
  
 
 

CBS, 8:00 p.m. ET

This new episode airs on a special day for the core members of this geeky sitcom. It’s May 4. May the 4th. Known, in some cinematic sci-fi circles, as Star Wars day… as in, “May the 4th be with you.” Sigh… And The Big Bang Theory made that very joke, on air, a few years ago, in case you think I’m stretching things.

 
  
 
 

CW, 9:00 p.m. ET

This is the penultimate episode of this first season of Riverdale, so whatever mysteries are going to be solved, they should start being solved about…now…

 
  
 
 

CBS, 10:00 p.m. ET

I’m not recommending this entire series – not this many iterations into its run, where even is repetitions have become repetitive. But tonight’s episode is set in Venice, and any chance to get to see Venice up close is worth it. Even with a bunch of grumbling and fumbling reality-show competitors blocking much of the scenery.

 
  
 
 

CNN, 10:00 p.m. ET

This reflective new documentary series trains its sights tonight on the shooting of students at Kent State University by the Ohio National Guard in 1970. The date was May 4 – a day far more worth remembering than “Star Wars day.” And musically, expect at least one unavoidable, unforgettable focal point: “Ohio,” the searing instant-response song by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young.
