What’s on TV
MIRACLE WORKERS: DARK AGES 10:30 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. on TBS. Since this anthology installation of “Miracle Workers” began, Prince Chauncley (Daniel Radcliffe) has come to understand that he is not meant to carry on his family’s tyrannical traditions. He wonders if he’d prefer being kind to commoners instead, and he explores an internship shoveling feces with Edward (Steve Buscemi). Along the way, Chauncley develops feelings for Alexandra (Geraldine Viswanathan), Edward’s daughter, who has graduated from school and been employed at the medical center. Toward the end of the season, however, Chauncley has caused a war by backing out of a political marriage, and Alexandra, who was on her way to Paris with her new boyfriend, returns home.
THE SCHEME (2020) 9 p.m. on HBO. In 2017, the N.B.A. scout Christian Dawkins — along with several assistant coaches and Adidas executives — was arrested by the F.B.I., after a two-year investigation into a collegiate basketball scandal. In 2019, Dawkins was found by a New York jury to be guilty of bribery and conspiracy to commit bribery. This feature details the scandal and the investigation, including interviews with Dawkins, his parents, his lawyer and two journalists.
THE POLIO CRUSADE: AMERICAN EXPERIENCE 9 p.m. on PBS (check local listings.) Partly based on the book “Polio: An American Story” by David Oshinsky, this feature documents the state of the nation during the polio outbreak of the 1940s-50s. Easily transmissible and potentially resulting in paralysis or death, polio and the threat of its contagion gripped the country until the Salk vaccines were tested in 1954. This program includes interviews with people who had polio and the only scientist still alive who worked on the vaccine.
What’s Streaming
A WRINKLE IN TIME (2018) Stream on Disney Plus; rent on Amazon, Google Play, Vudu and YouTube. This film adaptation of Madeleine L’Engle’s coming-of-age story “is demonstratively generous, encouraging and large-spirited,” A.O. Scott wrote in his review for The New York Times. It is directed by Ava DuVernay, who was behind “Selma” (2014) and “When They See Us” (2019). Storm Reid is Meg Murry, a middle-schooler with a little brother named Charles Wallace Murry (Deric McCabe) and two brilliant scientists for parents (Chris Pine and Gugu Mbatha-Raw). When the story begins, Meg's father is missing — a result of his attempt to prove a theory about time and space — and is trapped in a fifth dimension by an evil force called the IT. It becomes up to Meg, along with Charles Wallace and a friend, Calvin (Levi Miller), to rescue her father and save the universe. The group encounter three celestial beings, personified by Reese Witherspoon, Mindy Kaling and Oprah Winfrey, who share their wisdom with the children. Of the film’s impact, Scott adds that “it trusts words more than images, spelling out messages about love, courage and self-acceptance with the conscientious care of a teacher reading aloud to a class.”
