Alonzo Bodden:
Historically Incorrect
Friday at 9 p.m. on SHO
The stand-up comic, podcaster
and frequent panelist on the radio
show “Wait Wait ... Don’t Tell Me”
returns with another meditation on
the decline of western civilization,
this time focusing on historical inac-
curacies in both past and present.
“My hope is that 100 years from
now, they won’t believe we were
anti-healthcare, feared gay mar-
riage and had the nation’s largest
news outlet claim cops shooting
unarmed blacks was not a racial
issue,” Bodden recently posted on
social media about his set.
Must See TV: An All-Star
Tribute to James Burrows
Sunday at 9 p.m. on KGW,
KOBI, KMTR
One of the most esteemed directors
of television sitcoms is saluted by
stars of many shows he’s guided in
this new special. Cast members of
“Will & Grace” (of which Burrows
directed every episode — nearly
200), “Cheers,” “Taxi,” “Friends,”
“Two and a Half Men,” ‘Mike &
Molly” and “The Big Bang Theory”
offer testimonials to his approach
and success. Participants include
Jennifer Aniston, Megan Mullally,
David Schwimmer, Kaley Cuoco
and Sean Hayes.
The X-Files
Monday at 8 p.m. on KLSR
The limited-run revival of the series
ends with “My Struggle II,” written
and directed by the show’s creator,
Chris Carter. When a mass illness
befalls America and sets off a
nationwide panic, Scully (Gillian
Anderson) becomes the key to
solving the crisis. Mulder (David
Duchovny) pursues the person he
believes to be behind it, but some-
one both sleuths know eventually
resurfaces as a major factor. An-
nabeth Gish reprises her role from
the first series.
