GRANT By David Bianculli

MINISERIES FINALE: Lee lost. Grant won. That was in yesterday’s Part 2. Tonight, it’s the post-war story, and what happens to Ulysses S. Grant as he prepares his memoirs… which Mark Twain wants to publish. For a full review, see David Hinckley's All Along the Watchtower.

WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS By David Bianculli

In tonight’s episode, Nadja and Lazslo venture into a dangerous new environment: open mic night at a local nightclub. And the two vampire lovers have an old musical number they’re dusting off for the occasion… "You're So Vein," perhaps?

THE COMPLETE BBC TELEVISION SHAKESPEARE COLLECTION By David Bianculli

From 1978 to 1985, the BBC spent seven years producing new TV productions of every play William Shakespeare ever wrote. I reviewed them, as a TV critic, as all 37 were released stateside by PBS – and expected to see them repeated on TV from then on. Instead, they all but vanished. Until now, when Britbox is making all of them available for streaming beginning today. Helen Mirren is in two of my very favorites from this BBC run: A Midsummer Night’s Dream and As You Like

MONDAYS WITH MICHELLE OBAMA By David Bianculli

This weekly series of national read-alongs has been extended, and for this Memorial Day edition, host Michelle Obama makes room for two more children’s books to be read aloud, with illustrations shown, for young viewers. Both of today’s selections come with punctuation attached: Oh, The Places You’ll Go! by Dr. Seuss is one selection, and Can I Be Your Dog? by Troy Cummings, which will be read by a “very special guest,” is the other. Mondays with

HOMECOMING By David Bianculli

SEASON PREMIERE: The first season of this Amazon series, about subliminal subterfuge and a conspiratorial deep state, had a huge box-office draw at its center in Julia Roberts. She’s gone for Season 2, and taking her place at the story’s center is Janelle Monáe. New co-stars include Chris Cooper.

AKA JANE ROE By David Bianculli

DOCUMENTARY PREMIERE: Nick Sweeney produced and directed this new FX documentary, which was in the works the year before the 2017 death of Norma McCorvey, the woman referred to as “Jane Roe” in the landmark Roe v. Wade U.S. Supreme Court case legalizing abortion. Sweeney interviewed McCorvey in depth, and even got what McCorvey called her “deathbed confession” about why she eventually switched sides on the issue of abortion. All the stories are complicated here, including

PATTON OSWALT: I LOVE EVERYTHING By David Bianculli

SPECIAL PREMIERE: Patton Oswalt has gone through a lot since his previous standup special – he’s married again, for one thing. But in this solo standup act, recorded at Charlotte before the coronavirus began to spread, he doesn’t devote much time to that topic, or even to politics. “I don’t have any Trump material, that’s what I’m saying,” he says. Instead, he spends a few minutes on why he doesn’t joke about President Trump: &ldquo

AMY SCHUMER LEARNS TO COOK By David Bianculli

Last week’s premiere of this new cooking series actually presented a few recipes I was happy to mark for future testing: Amy Schumer’s cocktail recipe for an old fashioned (she used to bartend in New York), and her husband Chris Fischer’s recipe for baked chicken wings, which combined a teriyaki marinade with a yogurt and herb wash. Seemingly, there’s no take two on this show, but that’s part of its casual, super informal energy. And the primary camera is handh

THE LAST DANCE By David Bianculli

DOCUMENTARY MINISERIES CONCLUSION: For a month now, ESPN has been offering double-dose helpings of this new documentary about Michael Jordan’s 1997-98 final championship run with the Chicago Bulls. Mostly, The Last Dance, so far, has been an entertaining and informative look at the long, arduous path to that final celebrated season – but tonight, the big payoff finally arrives. As does the big playoff.

THE GREAT By David Bianculli

MINISERIES PREMIERE: Tony McNamara, who co-wrote The Favourite, created and co-wrote this new 10-part Hulu miniseries, which drops all at once today – and which, I hope, gets an order for additional episodes, and thus becomes an official series. It’s that good, and that much fun. Elle Fanning plays the eventual Catherine the Great in this comedy about 18th-century Russian court intrigue, and Nicholas Hoult plays her boorish regal husband, the not-so-great Peter. The jockeyi
