'Dune: Prophecy,' Plus 6 Things to Watch on TV this Week


'Dune: Prophecy,' Plus 6 Things to Watch on TV this Week

Between streaming and cable, there is a seemingly endless variety of things to watch. Here is a selection of TV shows and specials that are available to watch live or stream this week, Nov. 11-17. Details and times are subject to change.

Delve into the messy lives of friends and sisters.

"My Brilliant Friend," based on Elena Ferrante's Neapolitan novels about the lifelong friends Elena Greco and Raffaella "Lila" Cerullo, is wrapping up its fourth and final season this week. The story began with the two as young girls in postwar Italy and followed as they grew into adults with very different educations, marriages and professional trajectories. "This is, simply put, one of the most incisive portraits of a lifelong relationship ever made for TV," James Poniewozik wrote in his review of this season for The New York Times. Monday at 9 p.m. on HBO.

You know the Chicks' comically gleeful yet somehow empowering murder ballad "Goodbye Earl"? Sharon Horgan's "Bad Sisters" is kind of like that but a TV show. The first season covered the death of John Paul, the abusive husband of one of the sisters, as the story flipped between two timelines -- before, when the sisters were plotting his death, and after, when they were dealing with a life insurance investigation. The second season begins with the guilt of what they each did creeping up in surprising ways. Available to stream on Wednesday on Apple TV+.

Will you join me for a dance? And then accept my rose?

Though "Dancing with the Stars" took a break last week -- for some major political event or something? -- it is back for its 500th episode. Joey Graziadei, Ilona Maher, Stephen Nedoroscik, Chandler Kinney, Dwight Howard and Danny Amendola are among the stars still in the competition. To celebrate the long-running show, they will each perform a dance inspired by memorable past "D.W.T.S." performances. Tuesday on ABC and streaming on Disney+ at 8 p.m.
