As Yellowjackets dives into Shauna’s backstory, get ready for Hanukkah with Eight Crazy Nights
Plus: Doctor Who: Flux, Succession, Dexter: New Blood, Insecure, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and several holiday options
Here’s what’s happening in the world of television for Sunday, November 28. All times are Eastern.
Top picks
Yellowjackets (Showtime, 10 p.m.): Leila Latif saw the second episode of this acerbic and gory new series as an “unsettling villain origin story.” She was referring to Misty (played by Sammi Hanratty in the past, and Christina Ricci in the present), but given that there are still several episodes to go in the first season, there are any number of characters who might join her in that category—like, say, Shauna (Melanie Lynskey)?
Regular coverage
Doctor Who: Flux (BBC America, 8:00 p.m.)
Succession (HBO, 9:00 p.m.)
Dexter: New Blood (Showtime, 9:00 p.m.)
Insecure (HBO, 10:00 p.m)
Curb Your Enthusiasm (HBO, 10:30 p.m.)
Season’s streamings
Eight Crazy Nights (Netflix): Celebrate the first night of Hanukkah with Adam Sandler’s animated movie, which was a response to the fact that there weren’t (and still aren’t) enough Hanukkah movies out there. Can you spot all the characters he plays?
Lamb Chop’s Special Chanukah (YouTube): For a more family-friendly option, you can watch Lamb Chop on YouTube.
