Here’s what’s up in the world of TV for Monday, October 10. All times are Eastern.
Top picks
Supergirl (The CW, 8 p.m.): Supergirl is back and better than ever. We mean, it’s back and now on a better-suited network. We’re not actually sure if the show’s any better now than it was in its first season, but it’s the little things that count. In tonight’s season premiere, “The Adventures Of Supergirl,” Superman shows up. Yes, the episode with that title is all about Superman—specifically Kara’s feelings of inferiority when it comes to her more famous cousin. But look on the bright: Supergirl’s no longer on CBS.
2 Broke Girls (CBS, 9 p.m.): 2 Broke Girls, on the other hand, is still on CBS, and it’s way past the two-season mark. Tonight is the sixth-season premiere of 2 Broke Girls, and it’s actually double the two. You see, it’s a two-episode, one-hour season premiere. In “And The Two Openings: Parts One & Two,” the two “openings” we’re getting are Max and Caroline’s new dessert bar and the opening that will of course happen as Sophie delivers her baby. Andy Dick and 2 Chainz guest star, and no, this is not a first time appearance on the show for either man.
Suite Francaise (Lifetime, 10 p.m.): Sometimes Lifetime movies just sneak up on you. And we’re even not talking about Eric Roberts’ Stalked By My Doctor franchise. Here, we have a film set “in Nazi-occupied France,” starring Michelle Williams, Kristin Scott Thomas, and Matthias Schoenaerts. Williams’ character, Lucille Angellier, falls in love with Schoenaerts’ Bruno, which is complicated for a couple of reasons. First of all, she’s married and Bruno’s not the husband. Second of all, Bruno’s one of the German soldiers who’s taken over her town and moved into villagers’ (specifically her own) homes. Ah, so Suite Francaise is French for “whoops.” We had no idea.
