At 8:25 p.m. AMC will premiere its music video for the song “Better Call Saul,” co-written by “Better Call Saul” executive producers and co-showrunners Vince Gilligan & Peter Gould and series composer Dave Porter (who also created the opening theme and score for “Breaking Bad”).

Showtime says of tonight’s “The Drone Queen”/“Trylon and Perisphere”:
As CIA Chief of Station in Kabul, Carrie makes a critical decision when her counterpart in Islamabad delivers urgent intelligence on a high value target. Back in the States, Saul struggles to adjust to his new role in the private sector. An official inquiry brings Carrie back to the States, where she struggles with her ambivalence towards motherhood. Quinn spirals out of control, while a disgraced former case officer reveals disturbing new information.
If tonight’s 2-hour fourth season premiere of “Homeland” seems a little draggy in the 40 minutes, know that it grows much more exciting (and violent) thereafter. I’m not a fan of slow starts, but I judge this worth the wait.
They found a VERY ginger baby to play Carrie's daughter. A lot more ginger than the actors who played Brody's other kids; this is certain.
And speaking of ginger, wait till you see where Quinn's spiral takes him!
WGN says of tonight’s “Tangier”:
A development overseas invigorates the hunt for a spy on The Hill.
What WGN isn’t telling you is Olivia Williams almost hugs a tree and that it’s a big episode for Dr. Helen Prins.

“60 Minutes” doesn’t do nearly as well when it doesn’t follow an NFL game!
The “Family Guy” Simpsons episode was the top scripted show last Sunday.
CBS’ ratings-basement dweller “The Good Wife” nearly killed off “The Mentalist” last season, and now it has brought the once-mighty “CSI” to its lowest rating ever.
Though slightly diminished by new broadcast competition, “The Strain” remained cable’s top scripted show last Sunday.
Sundays July 27-Sept. 28, 2014
