Perry Mattfeld (“Shameless”)
stars in this new dramatic
thriller as Murphy Mason, a
hard-living and harder-drinking
20-something blind woman
who lives with her support-
ive best friend, Jess (Brooke
Markham, “Foursome”), and
Pretzel, the guide dog Mur-
phy barely tolerates. She also
befriends the teenage Tyson
(Thamela Mpumlwana) after he
saves her from a mugging, so
Murphy is horrified when she
stumbles upon what she’s con-
vinced is Tyson’s lifeless body in
an alley. Somehow, the corpse
disappears before the police
arrive. Rich Sommer (“Mad
Men”) and Casey Deidrick
(“Days of Our Lives”) also star.

A Discovery of Witches
Sunday at 9 p.m., 11 p.m.,
3:30 a.m. on AMC
After scoring a striking cult suc-
cess on streaming platforms,
this adaptation of Deborah
Harkness’ best-selling fantasy
novel makes its basic cable de-
but on both AMC and its sister
channel BBC America. Set in a
modern world where witches,
vampires and daemons secretly
co-exist with humans, the story
opens in a library at Oxford,
where American historian (and
closet witch) Diana Bishop (Te-
resa Palmer) inadvertently calls
up an ancient magical text.
Unfortunately, it’s one that ge-
neticist (and vampire) Matthew
Clairmont (Matthew Goode)
wants to acquire for himself.
