The Voice
HOW/WHEN & WHERE TO WATCH: 8 p.m. on NBC
With the Battle rounds in full swing, coaches Kelly, Gwen, John, and Blake have tough decisions to make as they narrow down their teams. But as people get eliminated, the coaches also have one Save and one Steal they can use, and we might see that happen when Marina Chello and Ricky Duran go voice-to-voice on a slowed-down version of “Valerie,” as seen above. —Gerrad Hall

HOW/WHEN & WHERE TO WATCH: 10 p.m. on HBO
Series Debut
In this four-part historical epic, Helen Mirren stars as the imposing Russian Empress. Set aside the high-school rumors you might have heard about this impressive monarch (there’s no equine hanky-panky to be seen here), as the series brings you into a lushly shot world of palace intrigue. The first episode finds the Russian court caught between the Queen’s interest in Potemkin (Jason Clarke) and her ability to rule with an iron fist. Oh, and there’s a cross-dressing ball because as Clarke says, “Sometimes it’s just good to put on a frock. Every man needs to put on a dress.” —Maureen Lee Lenker
