QI
BBC America, 8:00 p.m. ET
SERIES PREMIERE: Well, it’s a premiere on BBC America, and in the U.S., but this long-running quiz show from BBC2 is anything but new over there. But I’ve watched it while visiting London, and it’s a breezy delight. Stephen Fry hosts a rotating group of panelists who are tasked not with delivering the most accurate answer to his questions, necessarily, but the most interesting. (The title QI stands for “Quite Interesting.”) And tonight’s three back-to-back episodes all concern something connected to the letter J. Expect QI to be Jolly, not Jejune.
