GOTHAM By David Bianculli

This week’s episode is particularly divorced from reality. Jim Gordon has a long hallucinatory dream in which he imagines himself bring put on trial for his actions, many of which apparently still haunt him. And elsewhere in what’s left of Gotham, young Bruce Wayne finds himself bewitched by the young woman soon to be known as Poison Ivy.

ALL THE PRESIDENT'S MEN & CITIZEN KANE By David Bianculli

Two of my favorite films are shown tonight as a double feature, with a related theme: movies and journalism. Ben Mankiewicz is the presiding TCM host, and his guest, for this month-long Thursday night tour of movies and the media, is Carl Bernstein, the former Washington Post reporter who is portrayed by Dustin Hoffman in tonight’s first featured film, 1976’s brilliant Watergate investigation drama, All the President’s Men, at 8 p.m. ET. After that, at 10:30, it’s 1941&rs

SECRET CITY By David Bianculli

SEASON PREMIERE: Season 2 of this Australian series arrives just after its premiere last month Down Under. Once again, it’s a sort of intense, Aussie-accented House of Cards, but with a different political scandal. As with Season 1, stars include the dynamic (and, to American viewers, quite familiar) Anna Torv and Jacki Weaver.

DOCUMENTARY NOW!: "WAITING FOR THE ARTIST" By David Bianculli

Last week, Documentary Now! Presented what may be my absolute favorite of its documentary intricate spoof: Co-Op, a letter-perfect, and note-perfect, lampoon of the documentary about the recording of the original Broadway cast soundtrack of Stephen Sondheim’s Company. Tonight, the documentary being satirized is Marina Abramovic: The Artist Is Present, about the life and art of a particularly and peculiarly devoted performance artist. In Waiting for the Artist, Cate Blanchett portrays

HAS ‘THE VOICE’ PEAKED? THE FALSE NOTES ARE BEGINNING TO SHOW By Alex Strachan

’m not enjoying The Voice this season — not so far, anyway. They say numbers don’t lie, and there’s no evidence yet to suggest other viewers are losing interest. And yet. . . . Little things are starting to bother me....

THE VOICE By David Bianculli

The fourth night of “the blinds” – the most exhilarating part of this music competition show – are televised tonight. There are additional nights of the blinds, so many more than there used to be when this series began, because the producers know where the show’s strengths are. And also know that, between the drama and the editing, these early rounds are the best way to showcase not only the singers, but the judges – as, this cycle, new Voice judge John Legend

THIS IS US By David Bianculli

After another brief absence from the NBC Tuesday lineup, This Is Us returns with a new episode – and with, of course, some flashbacks, in which, this week, the “Big Three” siblings are scheduled to graduate from high school.

THE VOICE By David Bianculli

The third round of blind auditions for this latest cycle is presented tonight – and after all these cycles, The Voice still manages to throw in a fresh wrinkle or two. So far this year, for example, the judges, for the first time, were faced with (or, really, facing away from) a trio. And really, shouldn’t they be booked on a different show – called The Voices?
