The Old Man 2

Channel: Disney+
TX Time: 00h01
Genre: Thriller, Drama

The Old Man 2

Based on the novel of the same name by Thomas Perry, The Old Man centres on Dan Chase (Jeff Bridges), who absconded from the CIA decades ago and has been living off the grid since.

When an assassin arrives and tries to take Chase out, the old operative learns that to ensure his future he now must reconcile his past.

With Dan Chase flushed out of hiding, the FBI's Assistant Director for Counterintelligence, Harold Harper (John Lithgow), is called on to hunt him down because of his complicated past with the rogue fugitive.

Working alongside Harper is his protégé Angela Adams (Alia Shawkat) and CIA Special Agent Raymond Waters (E.J. Bonilla).

When Chase proves to be more difficult to apprehend than the authorities expected, Julian Carson (Gbenga Akinnagbe), a highly trained special ops contractor, is sent to pursue him as well.

While on the run, Chase rents a room from Zoe McDonald (Amy Brenneman), who draws on reserves she never knew she had in order to survive the day when she learns the truth about her new tenant.

In Season 2, Chase and Harper set off to recover Emily after she is kidnapped.

As the stakes rise and secrets are uncovered, Emily finds herself in an identity crisis with dire implications, and Zoe makes surprising moves into Chase's world.

In the Season 2 premiere: Now in Afghanistan, Chase and Harper have to evade the Taliban in order to save Emily.
 

Evil 4

Channel: M-Net (DStv 101)
TX Time: 21h00
Genre: Supernatural, Drama, Thriller

Evil 4

Final season!

Evil is a psychological mystery that examines the origins of evil along the dividing line between science and religion.

The series focuses on a skeptical female psychologist who joins a priest-in-training and a contractor as they investigate the Church's backlog of unexplained mysteries, including supposed miracles, demonic possessions and hauntings.

Their job is to assess if there is a logical explanation or if something truly supernatural is at work.

In the upcoming season, Kristen, David and Ben continue to assess cases that involve wayward technology, possessed pigs, demonic oppression and infestation, a dance muse conjured by alleged witches and an evil relic.

Throughout, Leland attempts to lure Kristen into raising a baby antichrist who was conceived with her ovum.

David is recruited by the Vatican's secret service to "remote view" a paranormal ability to see the unseen in order to detect evil.

Ben is hit by an ion beam, causing him to see visions of a taunting jinn until he discovers an unusual solution to banish it.

Finally, all three realise they only have a few weeks left to assess cases because the parish has decided to disband the team due to a lack of funds.

This culminates in one last confrontation with Leland and the 60 families that make up Evil in the modern world.

In the Season 4 premiere, "How to Split an Atom": Kristen learns the details of Leland's evil scheme involving her ovum, and Sheryl's involvement only increases the tension.

Meanwhile, David, Ben and Kristen are sent to investigate a particle accelerator suspected to be a gateway to Hell.

JFK: One Day in America

Channel: Disney+
TX Time: 00h01
Genre: Documentary Series, History

JFK: One Day in America

This three-part series produces a comprehensive account of that tragic moment in American history and the ripples that followed.

The series is made in official collaboration with The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza in Dallas.

With exclusive permission to colorise the museum's news footage archives for the first time, the docuseries weaves archival footage with key testimony from some of the last surviving witnesses to create an immersive, minute-by-minute examination of that pivotal day that forever changed American history.

JFK: One Day in America features newly colorised footage and testimony from those on the ground in Dallas that day, some of whom are sharing their stories for the first time in a documentary.

The newly colorised footage includes that of Lee Harvey Oswald when he is in police custody and when he is shot while being transferred to the county jail.

Contributors sharing their emotional testimony for the first time in a documentary include:

- Peggy Simpson, the only female Associated Press reporter working in Texas in 1963 and an eyewitness to Oswald's shooting;

- Rusty Robbins, a Dallas police officer who knew Jack Ruby, the man who murdered Oswald;

- and Bill Mercer, a local reporter for KRLD who was the first to inform suspect Oswald that he had been charged with the president's murder.

The series also interviewed Clint Hill, a United States Secret Service agent assigned to Jackie Kennedy, who famously jumped onto the moving car and tried to help the First Lady after shots were fired.

There's also Secret Service agent Paul Landis, who was on his first-ever presidential motorcade during the incident.

Also interviewed are:

- White House correspondent Sid Davis, who was in the room at Lyndon B. Johnson's swearing-in on-board Air Force One shortly after the assassination

- Buell Frazier, who drove Oswald to work that morning at the Texas School Book Depository;

- and Dallas shoe store worker John Brewer, who helped law enforcement find Lee Harvey Oswald.

Finally there's Ruth Paine, a friend of Oswald's wife, Marina, who lived with her at the time of the assassination; and the closest living civilian witnesses to the shooting, Gayle and Bill Newman.

Throughout the three episodes, you will also hear police radio recordings from on the ground on 22 November, 1963, as law enforcement searched for the shooter.

This includes dispatch recordings from the moment Dallas Police Officer J.D. Tippit was shot to the search around the Texas Theater when Oswald was soon arrested.

Additionally, live news broadcasts are featured over the course of each episode, echoing the fear, confusion and sadness that quickly swept the country in the wake of former President Kennedy and Officer Tippit's deaths.

The series chronicles in real-time not only the day JFK was assassinated but also the days surrounding it, including 22 November, when he arrived in Dallas; 24 November, when Oswald was shot; and JFK's funeral on 25 November.

The three episodes include:

Assassination

President John F. Kennedy and his wife, Jackie, travelled to Texas with an eye on the 1964 elections, along with a team of secret service agents.

During a motorcade in downtown Dallas, JFK is brutally shot in broad daylight and later tragically pronounced dead at Parkland Hospital with his grieving wife in the next room.

America changes forever.

Manhunt

The race is on to track down JFK's killer, but before he is arrested, the assassin kills again.

Meanwhile, Jackie Kennedy boards Air Force One to return JFK's body to Washington. Still wearing her bloodstained dress, she witnesses LBJ sworn in as president.

As the net closes around suspected killer Lee Harvey Oswald, his co-workers and family face interrogation.

Revenge

President Kennedy's body arrives back in Washington, and a grieving Jackie Kennedy leads the funeral march to honour him.

In Dallas, Lee Harvey Oswald is charged with JFK's murder, but the world is shocked again when Oswald himself is shot dead while still in police custody by nightclub owner Jack Ruby.

With Oswald dead, there is no reckoning, and America will never be the same.
