Danny Trejo, from Sons of Anarchy and some familiar recent “grindhouse” movies, guest stars as a man Marc Maron meets in AA, and decides to sponsor. Cut to: a guy on the floor, bound and bloody, with a gag in his mouth and a nervous Maron standing over him, trying to intercede.

Michael (Jeffrey Donovan) went deep undercover to save his friends – but now, as he emerges after a long undercover mission on foreign soil, his relationship with them doesn’t exactly pick up without losing a beat.

MINISERIES PREMIERE: Give credit to this three-part British miniseries, for finding a new way into the zombie craze. Its angle is to focus on a young man named Kieren (Luke Newberry), a zombie who, like many others in this fantasy drama, has benefited from medical research that provides an apparent cure, and return to living, breathing normalcy. The former zombies are given a medical syndrome term – Partially Deceased Syndrome Sufferer, or PDSS – and returned to society to be assimil

Give this series credit, at least, for landing some impressively unusual guest stars. Hannibal already has featured Gillian Anderson as a therapist, and tonight it features guest star Eddie Izzard, returning for his second appearance as another doctor – twisted killer Dr. Gideon.
