Entertainment NOW

TV Media Weekly | November 17 - 23, 2018 8 | Sunday afternoon out of her spot at the top of all of her classes when she turns out to be something of a prodigy. Over its eight episodes, "My Brilliant Friend" follows the two girls into their teenage years, with Margherita Mazzucco and Gaia Girace, both newcomers to the screen, taking over the roles as the girls age. The first two episodes of the miniseries were screened at the Venice Film Festival earlier this year and received rave reviews; and if audiences are as warm to it as the critics were, then adapta- tions of the rest of the novels are a really safe bet. "My Brilliant Friend" — just the first chapter in the story of Elena and Lila — pre- mieres Sunday, Nov. 18, on HBO. Best in the world: The Super Bowl is among the biggest sport- ing events in the world, and next year the matchup is being paired with what might be the world's biggest talent competition. "The Late Late Show" host James Corden will be front and center when "The World's Best" premieres immediately following the Super Bowl's post-game cov- erage on Sunday, Feb. 3, on CBS. Billed as the world's biggest tal- ent competition, the series will feature acts from countries around the globe performing in every genre and style imaginable. Darkness is coming: The world may be getting a bit more "Grimm." Luckily, that isn't as dire as it sounds: in happy news, NBC is working on a spinoff of its popular dark fantasy cop show. "Grimm" ran for six seasons, from 2011 to 2017, and starred Da- vid Giuntoli ("Buddymoon," 2016) as a homicide detective who learned that he's descended from a group of people who hunt super- natural creatures. It was part police procedural and part grim fantasy, and somehow the two genres just fit together — the show was a qui- et hit on Friday nights, drawing in respectable ratings and attracting a loyal fanbase. The spinoff, should it go to se- ries, is planned to be a continua- tion of the storylines and setting established in "Grimm." While the focus will be on new charac- ters, dangers and lore, that doesn't mean that the old is be- ing tossed out. Fan favorites will return, although it's still too early to know who or what will make the jump to the new series. In the same vein, there's also no news yet as to what exactly will be new in the spinoff. It's still in the early stages of develop- ment, and "Grimm" fans will have to wait for any announce- ments about casting, stories or even if the show will follow the style of a police procedural or whether it will take an entirely different tack. What is clear, though, is that NBC hasn't com- pletely shelved the setting and lore established in "Grimm." 11/18 1 PM 1:30 2 PM 2:30 3 PM 3:30 4 PM 4:30 5 PM 5:30 6 PM 6:30 S1 S2 WTTV 4 NFL Football Tennessee Titans at Indianapolis Colts Site: Lucas Oil Stadium -- Indianapolis, Ind.
