Texas 3-Step 

I Love Dick
Friday, May 12 (Amazon Prime)
Series Debut: Much has been think-pieced about Transparent showrunner Jill Soloway's follow-up Amazon Prime series, I Love Dick: It's a showcase for the rarely dramatized "female gaze," it's upending standard methods of linear storytelling, it has "Dick" in the title, etc. But, is it funny and/or moving? The first episode, launched last year in Amazon's up-voting Pilot Season, answered with a hard "duh." I Love Dick tells the story of New Yorkers Chris (Katherine Hahn) and Sylvere (Griffin Dunne), who've relocated to a Texas artist town. She's a struggling indie filmmaker, he's a writer-in-residency, and they're both obsessed with local cowboy artist Dick (Kevin Bacon)—a rugged bastard who couldn't care less. If you loved the pilot, you'll want to spend nine more episodes with Dick.

Get Me Roger Stone
Friday, May 12 (Netflix)
Documentary: Listeners of Alex Jones and InfoWars—sorry, failing Liberal Media outlet here, never mind—are familiar with Roger Stone, the veteran Republican adviser who first suggested that Donald Trump run for president, and then helped make it happen. He comes off like a dope, but, after 50 years of being a "malevolent Forrest Gump" figure in American politics, he's proven to be an effective dope. Stone is also a little weirder than you might imagine: He was fired from Bob Dole's 1996 presidential campaign after being "outed" as a swinger, he's marched in Pride parades, and he's the proud owner of more than one Richard Nixon bong. He and Trump share eerie similarities, but Stone is the more interesting character—maybe after the Cheeto flames out ... Stone/Jones 2020?

Mike Tyson Mysteries
Sunday, May 14 (Adult Swim)
Season Premiere: Now entering Season 3—yes, really—Mike Tyson (voiced by Tyson as parody or sincerity, no one knows) is still solving(?) mysteries with the help of sidekicks Pigeon (Norm Macdonald), the Marquess of Queensbury's ghost (Jim Rash) and adopted Korean daughter Yung Hee Tyson (Rachel Ramras—who's not even Asian; please alert the Cultural Appropriation Police). This time around, the now-homeless Team Tyson meets Mike's nerdy brother, flashes back to their first mystery, hits the car wash, goes to dinner and, most controversially of all, returns to Adult Swim full-time before Rick & Morty (seriously, what the hell?). Is it too much to wish for a Mike Tyson Mysteries/Rick & Morty crossover event wherein Rick faces off against Pigeon?

Downward Dog
Wednesday, May 17 (ABC)
Series Debut: Allison Tolman was going to be a star after the first season of Fargo, they told ya, a star! But then what happened? A Drunk History episode here, an Archer voice there, co-starring in Amazon Prime's Mad Dogs (don't worry, no one else saw it, either). And now there's ... this. In ABC midseason-shunted-to-summer filler Downward Dog, Tolman stars as an—everybody say it together—unlucky-in-love, single career woman whose daily travails are observed and commented upon by her overly thinky dog, Martin (voiced by series creator/writer Samm Hodges). It might have worked as a one-minute YouTube series; but as a half-hour TV dramedy, not so much. There's no there there; and charming, relatable everywoman Tolman can't carry this dog, or Dog.

Sinister Minister
Sunday, May 28 (Lifetime; rescheduled)
Movie: No, not a reunited '80s metal band playing the lido deck on that classic-rock cruise you're booking this summer (just admit it). Sinister Minister is "based on a true story" about single mother Trish (Nikki Howard) being lulled into a sense of security for herself and teen daughter Sienna (Angelica Briones) by—spot the red flags in this descriptor—"charismatic church minister D.J." (Ryan Patrick Shanahan). Little does Trish know that D.J. is a "serial wife-murderer" who's plotting to introduce her to Jesus so he can have Sienna all to himself. Which means, if D.J. adheres to his "serial" code, he'll kill off aged-out Sienna in Sinister Minister 2: Ingénue Boogaloo, and we gotta franchise here!
