Ride Along 2
Saturday at 8 p.m. on HBO
Ice Cube and Kevin Hart re-
team for this 2016 follow-up
to their wildly popular 2014
action-comedy, which finds
veteran police detective James
Payton (Cube) and recent police
academy graduate Ben Barber
(Hart) pursuing a violent drug
lord (Benjamin Bratt) in Miami.
Ken Jeong, Olivia Munn and
Bruce McGill also star in Tim
Story’s film which, like its pre-
decessor, turned a handsome
profit despite generally nega-
tive reviews.
Presidential Debate
Sunday at 9:30 p.m. on CNN
Presidential candidates Hill-
ary Clinton and Donald Trump
meet in their second of three
scheduled debates, a town-hall
event televised from Washing-
ton University in St. Louis, Mo.
Representatives of two networks
— Martha Raddatz of ABC and
Anderson Cooper on CNN —
share the moderating duties, an
indication that the debate will
be shown by multiple broadcast
and cable outlets. Half of the
questions will come from the
anchors, and half from the
audience.

An attempt on the life of a
