BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

NBC, 9:00 p.m. ET

LIVE TELECAST: Employing the same gimmick used a couple of times by 30 Rock, this NBC sitcom presents a live episode – one for each coast, performed three hours apart. And it’s an expanded episode, too, a full one hour long. I note this because it’s unusual, not because it’s recommended. Because live or no, Undateable remains pretty much Unwatchable.

 
  
 
 

ABC, 9:00 p.m. ET

As we near the season finale, the characters on this show are splitting more and more into separate camps – and Skye, once safely ensconced with the remnants of S.H.I.E.L.D., is getting closer each week to identifying with the Inhumans – whose members include a teleporting guy with no eyes and a woman who brings new meaning to the fashion statement of spiked hair.

 
  
 
 

Fox, 9:00 p.m. ET

SEASON FINALE: Say goodbye to Damon Wayans, Jr. – for the second time. The son of the popular In Living Color co-star was part of the original New Girl pilot in 2011, but had to bow out when the other series on which he co-starred, ABC’s Happy Endings, was renewed unexpectedly. (And undeservedly.) He returned to New Girl, reprising his role of Coach, in 2013, but leaves again tonight, for good, as Coach prepares for a move to New York City.

 
  
 
 

Comedy Central, 10:30 p.m. ET

Reginald Rose wrote Twelve Angry Men as an original teleplay for the CBS anthology series Studio One, where it was performed live in 1954. The next year, it was rewritten as a stage play, then, in 1957, as a movie. In the Sixties, The Dick Van Dyke Show devoted an episode to an affectionate full-length parody of it, with Van Dyke’s Rob Petrie as the only person on a jury persuaded that an attractive defendant was innocent. And now, half a century later, Amy Schumer devotes an entire episode of her comedy series to another black-and-white full-length Twelve Angry Men parody. This time it has a dozen men arguing about whether Amy is “hot enough” for TV, and the vociferous “jurors” include, among others, Jeff Goldblum, Paul Giamatti, and, from Mad Men, Vincent Kartheiser.

 
  
 
 

Showtime, 11:00 p.m. ET

SEASON PREMIERE: Why Showtime holds this David Steinberg interview series until the 11 p.m. ET hour confounds me. It ought to be shown earlier, and celebrated more often. Tonight’s Season 4 premiere shows why: The guests this week, talking about their comedy influences, achievements and lessons learned, are Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert.
