It's Sunday so it must be Fargo day on Channel 4 at 9pm. This is the third instalment and every one so far have been winners so I'm hoping that this one follow the trend.
However, starting over on ITV at 8pm is the second episode of the much lauded Vera. Meanwhile spirally out of control across Channel's 5, BBC 3 and ITV 2 is the battle of who can show the worst movie.
BBC 3 just miss out as they're showing the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie.
But ITV 2 are pulling out all the stops to win by showing Attack of the Clones, the cinematic equivalent to finding a dead mouse at the bottom of your pick and mix.
A real pick of the day is the Man in the Hat: Rene Magritte with Will Young on ITV at 10pm.
Ever since he stumbled upon a book about Rene Magritte at the age of 15, Will Young has apparently had a passion for the surrealist's work.
In this programme, the singer and actor travels to Magritte's native Belgium to find out more about a man whose trademark was a bowler hat, and whose apparently conventional exterior concealed the mind of a subversive rebel.
Even if you're not a fan of Will Young it looks like this will be pretty interesting.
Today's Netflix recommendation comes in the form of a documentary. In 1989, a group of unknown Utah actors starred in what would be crowned the worst movie of all time: TROLL 2.
After three decades of running from this cinematic disaster, the cast can no longer hide from the legion of followers that celebrate them for their ineptitude. It's an oddly touching piece of work, piercing the veil of cinema.
If nothing else it's a testament to the weird way something so bad can touch the hearts of so many people across the world. Well worth a watch.
