No subject escapes desecration on Sunday’s ‘Veep’ BY KEVIN MCDONOUGH Sometimes movie titles, like tabloid headlines, are basically the whole show. That’s hardly the case with the 2016 shocker “I Didn’t Kill My Sister” (8 p.m. Saturday, Lifetime). Here a woman is accused of slaying a popular news anchor in the middle of a very nasty divorce. Is this a woman-in-peril thriller? A dark tale of media intrigue? Or a murder whodunit with suspects galore? Nicholle Tom and Sharon Taylor star. • Viewers in search of something that’s a little more title-deep might like “Tulips in Spring” (9 p.m. Saturday, Hallmark). Here, a busy urban professional (Fiona Gubelmann) returns to her ailing father and rural splendor only to discover that she hasn’t been smelling the roses, or other blooms. Basically the plot to every Hallmark romance ever made. • The “30 for 30” (9:30 p.m. Saturday, ESPN) documentary “Believeland” looks at a half-century of struggles involving Cleveland’s major sports franchises and examines the collective psyche of Cleveland fans. After all, these are the folks who, for 60 years, referred to their own stadium as the “Mistake by the Lake.” • It’s hard for a comedy steeped in the “nothing sacred” tradition to top itself. “Veep” (10:30 p.m. Sunday, HBO, TV-MA) does so tonight, and no subject escapes desecration, be it the sanctity of life, country music, Eleanor Roosevelt and prayer itself. Not even Charlie Rose escapes unscathed. Knee-deep in the complicated recount efforts arising from a virtually tied election, Selina (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) receives news that her mother has suffered a stroke and is in intensive care. The pitch-black comedy here lies in the gulf between Selina’s true feelings (loathing, resentment and indifference) and her need to appear griefstricken for public consumption. While clearly playing for slapstick laughs, “Veep” may emerge as the most prescient comedy of our current election season. After all, the
race appears to be shaping up between a woman criticized for her lack of “authenticity” and a veteran of reality TV and decades of tabloid spin, where the illusion of the genuine is essential to the fakery. • While we’re on the subject of the real and the illusionary, Homer Simpson will appear “live” in an “improv”themed episode of “The Simpsons” (8 p.m. Sunday, Fox, TV-PG). • Fans of “Melrose Place” and “Dynasty” star Heather Locklear can catch up with the actress in “The Game of Love” (7 p.m. Sunday, UP). She plays Frankie, the estranged ex-wife of Jake (Lochlyn Munro), the third-generation owner of a struggling Seattle basketball team. His children, the fourth generation, would rather sell the franchise as an asset and hope to enlist mom in a hostile takeover of the aptly named Cougars. Will Frankie and Jake’s spark rekindle? Or will the ungrateful kids with bookkeepers’ souls triumph over sentiment? If you have to ask ... • Elizabeth McGovern (“Downton Abbey”) narrates “The Queen at 90” (8 p.m. Sunday, Smithsonian), a documentary look at the life and reign of the United Kingdom’s monarch, Elizabeth II.
SATURDAY’S HIGHLIGHTS • A family takes in a homeless teen who develops into a football star in the 2009 drama “The Blind Side” (8 p.m., ABC), starring Sandra Bullock in an Oscar-winning role. • A father-son team that feeds feral felines seeks help on “My Cat From Hell” (8 p.m., Animal Planet). • Authorities hunt for killers in Cleveland and Dallas on “The First 48: Bad Company” (9 p.m., A&E, TV-14). • Claire puts her 20th-century nursing skills to work on “Outlander” (9 p.m., Starz, TV-MA). • Homemakers with deep ecological concerns (and seemingly deeper pockets) seek a certain buoyancy on “My Floating Home” (10:30 p.m., FYI, TV-PG). • Drake serves as host and
check local listings). • Tensions mount as the destination nears on “Fear the Walking Dead” (9 p.m., AMC, TV-MA). • Tyrion strikes a bargain on “Game of Thrones” (9 p.m., HBO, TV-MA). • Jimmy’s desperate move on “Mr. Selfridge” on “Masterpiece Classic” (10:30 p.m., PBS, TV-14, check local listings). • Ehrlich feels the heat on “Silicon Valley” (10 p.m., HBO, TV-MA).
CULT CHOICE A ragtag group schemes to steal a Mexican general’s gold in the 1970 Western “El Condor” (9 p.m. Saturday, Bounce), starring Jim Brown, Lee Van Cleef, Patrick O’Neal, Marianna Hill and Iron Eyes Cody.
