BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

IFC, 8:00 p.m. ET

Bill Maher is on a summer break from HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher, so if you want more Maher, this is the place to go: an IFC showing of his 2008 nonfiction film about religious beliefs, with Maher’s atheistic viewpoint present throughout. Some of his targets are way too easy, but the film, by Borat director Larry Charles, features some even-handed and intriguing sequences as well.

 
  
 
 

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

It’s Classic Adventure night on TCM, and the night begins with a classic of classics: 1938’s Adventures of Robin Hood, starring Errol Flynn as Robin, Olivia de Havilland as Maid Marian, Basil Rathbone as Sir Guy and Claude Rains as Prince John. Oh, and Little John is played by Alan Hale, whose son, Alan Hale Jr., co-starred as the Skipper on Gilligan’s Island. (That piece of info provided to TVWW readers at no extra charge.)

 
  
 
 

TNT, 9:00 p.m. ET

SERIES RETURN: Kyra Sedgwick is back as Brenda, but not for long. These are the series’ final six episodes, bringing closure to the seven-season journey taken by Sedgwick the actress and Brenda the character. In this first episode of the final batch, Brenda prepares, once again, to face her nemesis Philip Stroh (recurring guest star Billy Burke) — but this time in court.

 
  
 
 

More Max, 9:00 p.m. ET

“You blend!” Much of this 1992 comedy feels like an enjoyable little B movie, a broad farce of the type that Hollywood cranks out seemingly every month. Yet Joe Pesci as a Brooklyn “attorney,” and Oscar-winner Marisa Tomei as his tough girlfriend, imbue this light comedy with way too much heart and energy to dismiss, or forget. Twenty years later, it’s still a hoot – and still memorable.

 
  
 
 

TNT, 10:00 p.m. ET

SERIES PREMIERE: The acting in this new series, and the casting, are much better than the scripts, which disappoint by not serving up very interesting or original mysteries. Eric McCormack, formerly of Will & Grace, plays a professor who has occasional hallucinations, which help him solve crimes as a consultant to the FBI. Even that central gimmick isn’t employed impressively, but when the guest roster, in the opening shows, includes Sheryl Lee from Twin Peaks and Neal McDonough from Justified, this series is difficult to dismiss entirely. For a full review, see Ed Bark’s Uncle Barky’s Bytes column HERE.
