BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

Pop, 8:00 p.m. ET

SEASON PREMIERE: Schitt’s Creek, the undervalued comedy import from Canada, begins Season 3 tonight on the POP Network, still starring veterans SCTV cohorts Eugene Levy and Catherine O’Hara as wealthy pampered parents who, after a major financial setback, retreat to go live in a small town they once purchased as a joke, became of its name. (See the show’s title.) Levy’s son, Daniel, is a co-star and series creator.

 
  
 
 

PBS, 9:00 p.m. ET

Five years after the tsunami and earthquake triggered the events of the nuclear breakdown and meltdown at the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan, Nova revisits the area, and the question, to ask: Is nuclear power a viable part of the world’s energy future? Or is it too unpredictable, too dangerous, and too environmentally costly? Check local listings.
 
  
 
 

ABC, 9:31 p.m. ET

This series isn’t afraid to tackle sensitive or polarizing topics, such as its reputation-making episode on “the N word.” Tonight, it tackles another very sensitive topic: the T word. That’s T as in Trump, and tonight’s installment is all about the family’s reaction to the presidential election. Well, make that reactions, because little about this family unit is unified.
 
  
 
 

FXX, 10:30 p.m. ET

Last week’s Season 3 premiere set up a new recurring character in Lucy (Katie Findlay), a woman who becomes the new romantic interest of Jay Baruchel’s Josh. But this particular significant other is becoming very significant very quickly. In last week’s episode, after Josh wore out his welcome hanging out at her nicely appointed apartment with her disapproving roommates, she announced her intention to move in with him instead. This week, we see the first results of that snap decision: not only a massive and ruthless cleanup of his apartment (pictured here), but a visit to meet the parents.
 
  
 
 

Starz!, 1:40 a.m. ET

This 2016 documentary relies on vintage interview clips with Frank Zappa to tell the story of the man and his music – going so far back, with the musician who burst into counter-culture prominence as the leader of the Mothers of Invention in the 1960s, that among the earliest interviews is a TV visit with Steve Allen. Zappa is eminently quoteworthy, as when he once said, “Most rock journalism is people who can’t write interviewing people who can’t talk for people who can’t read.”

We strongly believe that this is a smart solution that provides good agreement. Of course, we believe that teaching competency will not be effective if the instructor cannot maintain control of the class.
