We’re coming up to the Season 1 finale of this series – and since every episode so far has ended with a tasty, twisty cliffhanger, it’s not too early, at this point, to start imagining how things might end until next fall… because this entertaining series is coming back.

Last week, when Norma Bates was away, her son Norman went on a little break. Not a spring break, or a break from studies – but a psychotic break, getting closer to the Norman who embodies the titular character in Alfred Hitchcock’s 1960 movie Psycho. Tonight, Norma comes back – but to what? And to whom?

SERIES PREMIERE: Here’s a new approach for a travel series. Host Brian Unger, whom you may remember from his stint on The Daily Show, takes viewers on a tour of a different location each week. So what’s new about that? Well, in this series, Unger isn’t as interested in what he finds there as in what used to be there – and thanks to computer-generated graphics and special effects, the cities and scenery of today give way to the way things were yesterday. And long before th

SERIES PREMIERE: This is the talk show series about the intersections of science and popular culture, and is hosted by Neil deGrasse Tyson, based on his podcast and radio show of the same name. It’s the project TVWW profiled with anticipation during the January 2015 Television Critics Association press tour – and tonight, in this first weekly episode of a 10-week late-night launch season, the anticipation is over.And what better subject with which to begin than the topic of Star Trek

The Wonder Years ran for six seasons, from 1988 to 1993, and featured an adult narrator looking back on childhood with both nostalgic affection and a wizened perspective. It wasn’t a new idea for a sitcom... but it gave us one of TV’s all-time best comedies...

Blake Shelton, who has parlayed his judging sessions on NBC’s The Voice into a second career as a comfortably casual, telegenic “good old boy,” once again co-hosts this performance-heavy CMA party with Luke Bryan. If you’re having a hard time conjuring the image of Bryan, but know instantly what Shelton looks and acts like, that’s my point exactly. On this stage each year, they goof around like good-natured bickering brothers – the same act Shelton works so we

This second episode of Season 5 is as lavishly produced as last week’s – and if you have a hard time keeping all of the various kingdoms straight on this show, be prepared, because tonight’s show takes us to at least one place we’ve never been before, as part of Arya Stark’s quest for purpose as well as safety. But familiar places, and faces, pop up, too: Let there be dragons!

Part 3 of 6. In tonight’s episode, two of the court members with controversial reputations among the citizenry -- Anne Boleyn (Claire Foy) and Cromwell (Mark Rylance) – commiserate with one another by discussing their respective public images. They can’t seem to stop people from saying or thinking disparaging things – and that was way, way before TMZ and the Internet. Check local listings.

In this week’s episode, Roger punts a client, and a project, in Don’s direction – with everyone at the firm struggling to emerge with power, or at least dignity, in the shifting sands of a new decade.

This series is so strong and funny this season. Tonight, President Selina Meyer (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) prepares to meet the Israeli delegation, with Gary (Tony Hale) making a mess of the advance preparations, especially the formal dinner function.
