Good afternoon, good evening, and good night! Here's what's on television for tonight, Sunday, November 29!
Top Pick goes to the HBO limited series The Undoing, starring Nicole Kidman as Grace Fraser, a successful New York therapist who's life begins to unravel on the eve of publishing her first book. It all leads to a courtroom trial. Hugh Grant plays the husband. I watched the first episode, and it was... above average. Will I finish it? I think so...?
Elsewhere, Masterpiece turns 50, James Corden gets 60 Minutes treatment, New York goes back to the '80s, Lisa Ling is back, Catherine of Aragon has a mad husband, the World Beyond wraps season one, and SpaceX sets up next to Moonbase 8.
