BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

CBS All Access, 3:00 a.m. ET

SEASON PREMIERE: The concept of this series – taking fairy tales and adapting them as very modern allegorical dramas – was much better than its execution last year. But now, for Season 2, it has a new chance to reboot and readjust. The primary plot threads, this season, borrow from three very familiar stories: Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and Beauty and the Beast. That last one puts a gender-reversal spin on it – a spin that looks a lot like a female Phantom of the Opera.

A CHARLIE BROWN CHRISTMAS

ABC, 8:00 p.m. ET

This was yesterday’s Best TV Tomorrow video on TVWW, and today it’s not only the best of all Bianculli’s Best Bets, but the best Christmas special of the season, period. It doesn’t matter how many times you’ve seen this animated special, first telecast by CBS in 1965. Charles Schulz’s timeless Peanuts characters are worth watching, and embracing, again and again and again. And before I die, I hope to learn how to play “Linus and Lucy” on the piano. In two weeks, I’ll be halfway there: I’ll have the piano…

SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE CHRISTMAS SPECIAL

NBC, 8:00 p.m. ET

It seems like only last week that NBC presented an SNL Thanksgiving special – hey, it was only last week! – and tonight, it presents its Christmas counterpart. But it’s a welcome holiday treat, because it’s bound to include not only Alec Baldwin talking about his particular brand of holiday goodies (“Schweddy balls”), but Justin Timberlake and Andy Samberg singing about their particular brand of holiday gift-giving: “One, cut a hole in a box…”

EVIL

CBS, 10:00 p.m. ET

This is part two of the episode about the exorcism that has thrown the entire team into disarray – and maybe even danger, and not only of disbanding.
