This Monday is all about second chances, whether that’s the second episode of the second run of Mulder & Scully, the second chance to see slapstick that was marathon’d last week, or the second chance to get a relationship right. Ok, that last one is a far cry from the actual show, but we were so close to a symmetry, dammit!
KATHERINE’S PICK:
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend [CW, 8p]
It’s back, it’s back! Golden Globe winner Rachel Bloom is back as lovesick Rebecca, who rents a party bus to impress her crush’s friends. Buckle in, it’s at least three hours to the beach!
NAVANI’S PICK:
The X-Files [FOX, 8p]
The second episode of the miniseries airs on its regular day and time. In this ep Scully and Mulder are on the hunt to find out what drove a scientist to commit suicide when they stumble upon a secret lab where genetic experiments have gone haywire.
JASON’S PICK:
Angie Tribeca [TBS, 9p]
Even if you’ve already watched all 10 episodes (they were all shown in one sitting and are available on demand), there’s so much new to catch in Angie Tribeca‘s Police Squad–esque madcap, joke-a-second barrage, it’s worth viewing as many times as possible. Rashida Jones is a national treasure!
ALSO ON TAP:
Watch the bakers bake (and the panda’s…panda{?}) on a Kung Fu Panda-themed episode of Cake Wars on Food Network…Superstore wobbles along on TBS, succeeding especially when America Ferrera and the gang are allowed honest moments in this often insincere sitcom…Lucifer (on FOX) looks kinda ridiculous, but our secret Satan is played by Tom Ellis, who was excellent as Miranda Hart’s supersweet but beyond star-crossed love interest in Miranda
