BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

Amazon Prime Video, 3:00 a.m. ET

SEASON PREMIERE: This is Season 3 of Amazon’s ambitious adaptation of the Philip K. Dick novel, and this year, the show’s alternative history drama is all over the map. Literally. Japan has achieved parity with Germany, the other victor in this reality-warping outcome to WWII, by developing a more powerful bomb. The Nazis have used firing squads, torture and propaganda to further their message and aims in this dour season opener – and in the program, a solo child’s voice singing “Tomorrow Belongs to Me” is no less chilling than the version of “Edelweiss” heard in the show’s still-unsettling opening credits. For a full review, see David Hinckley's  All Along the Watchtower.
 
  
 
 

HBO, 10:00 p.m. ET

There’s quite a crew for tonight’s show, which arrives after quite a week in Washington. Doris Kearns Goodwin provides some long-range historical perspective, former Florida Rep. David Jolly provides some insider insights, journalist Soledad O’Brien and commentator Andrew Sullivan weigh in on the week’s events – and Jeff Bridges gets us all to chill a little. Which we need, sorely…

 
  
 
 

BBC America, 11:00 p.m. ET

SEASON PREMIERE: Graham Norton is back – and to start his new season, he’s got not only the new star of Doctor Who (Jodie Whittaker, the first female Doctor, who bows Sunday on BBC America and worldwide), but the two stars of the newest incarnation of A Star Is Born: Bradley Cooper and. Lady Gaga. Oh, and Ryan Gosling. Oh, and Rod Stewart…
