new and noteworthy tv: 7/2-7/8

I wrapped up Deadwood which didn’t immediately grab me but by the time the series wrapped I realized I’d be missing that crew, what’s the deal with the movie? Though this does now leave me with an opening, looks like HBO series with full seasons available on Prime are Boardwalk Empire (5 seasons), Rome (2 seasons), The Newsroom (3 seasons), Oz (6 seasons), Big Love (5 seasons), Family Tree (1 season), How to Make it in America (2 seasons), Treme (4 seasons)… what’s good?

  • Strokes of Genius (CW) Tuesday, 8pm – Can’t get enough tennis? Get a look at this in depth look at the Federer/Nadal 2008 Wimbledon final.
  • 4th of July Specials, Wednesday, 8pm: Fourth of July at the White House (Hall), Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks Spectacular (NBC), A Capital Fourth (PBS)
  • Anne with an E (Net) Season Premiere, Friday – The green gables return though this series isn’t high on my to do list.
  • Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee (Net) Season Premiere, Friday – I do really enjoy this show, though I’ve started over with s1 because I couldn’t remember where I left off and they all still seem fresh so it will take me a while to get up to the current season.
  • Sacred Games (Net) Series Premiere, Friday – Netflix’s first original Indian series uncovers the underbelly of Mumbai.
  • Sharp Objects (HBO) Series Premiere, Sunday, 9pm – I remember this book as being kind of a weird unreliable narrator sort of situation that I’m not sure how they’ll do in a series but starring Amy Adams as the reporter returning home to look at crime is getting some good buzz.
