She got her first Academy Award nomination for her supporting turn in the raunchy comedy “Bridesmaids,” but Melissa McCarthy earned her sec- ond Oscar nod — this time in the best actress category — as alcoholic writer Lee Israel in Marielle Heller’s poignant 2018 adaptation of Israel’s memoir. Her career on the rocks, Israel resorts to forging letters from dead authors and playwrights to pay her bills. Richard E. Grant also earned a nomination for his supporting performance as one of Israel’s few loyal friends. Jane Curtin co-stars. 8 p.m. on STARZ Movie: Miss Bala Golden Globe winner Gina Rodriguez (“Jane the Virgin”) undertakes quite a change of pace in director Catherine Hardwicke’s (“Twilight”) 2019 crime thriller — a remake of a 2011 Mexican film — which casts the actress as Glo- ria Fuentes, a makeup artist from Los Angeles. While Gloria is visiting her best friend (Cristina Rodlo) in Mexico, the latter is kidnapped by a band of armed gunmen. To save her friend, Gloria trains with federal officers to take down a drug cartel. Matt Lauria also stars. 9 p.m. on HALL Movie: My One & Only In this new 2019 romance, dating couple Stephanie and Oliver (Pascale Hutton, Stephen Huszar) are seeking any signs suggesting that they are des- tined to spend life together, so they sign up for a popular relationship TV show called “The One.” While magic between the pair doesn’t seem to be in the cards, however, some obvious amorous sparks start to fly between Stephanie and Alex (Sam Page), the hot ranch owner charged with being their guide. 9 p.m. on BBCA Planet Earth: Nature’s Great Events Sir David Attenborough narrates this stunning docuseries, which looks at how seasonal changes that result in shifting weather patterns and ocean currents produce conditions that pres- ent challenges and opportunities to certain species. The premiere, “The Great Melt,” explores how the dramati- cally increasing summer thaw of sea ice in the arctic regions could be disastrous for animals like polar bears, who wake from hibernation to find the icy ground beneath them falling away even as they walk on it.
