While the volume of shows of note may be a little low this week, there are some huge titles with some very big stars on your TV this week.
On the episodic TV side of things you have the highly anticipated western 1923, starring Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren. The show is set in the Yellowstone universe, but you don't need to have seen either Yellowstone or prequel series 1883 to watch this. The first episode puts viewers in the deep end, confusing them with three seemingly unlinked stories. But it remains entertaining and I'm sure we will see how they all tie together soon enough.
On the made for streaming movie side of it all, there's the Netflix film Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery. With an all-star cast headed up by Daniel Craig, this is an old-school murder-mystery film that will have you guessing until the end.
