Sunday Night: Ballerinas and Secret Agents

Tonight you can capture a ballet drama on Starz called Flesh and Bone.  It portrays the dark side of the arts in New York City, which is not much of a surprise.  I cannot think of any sunny portrayals of the sausage-making arts world.  Annie this is not, or maybe it is but a very adult version.  Of course, since this is a television show competing against every other show, you need to throw in incest, Russian mobsters, and more.  Ballerinas seem to be a small part of this tale.  

Design and Trend notes:

"Flesh And Bone" isn't for the fainthearted. It not only shows ballerinas seemingly floating on the dance floor with their graceful moves, cherubic expressions and body-bending techniques but there's ample dark drama and sex to shock and awe viewers.
 
And if you need something other than dark dancing, you can watch the two-hour premiere of Agent X on TNT tonight.  Here is the trailer and pitch:

In times of extreme crisis, when traditional law and government aren't in a position to help, there is an unseen hand that works to protect this country and its citizens from all manner of threats by any means necessary. Hidden from the view of the public -- and even from the President -- there is a top secret agent who is trained and ready to serve, deployed only at the careful discretion of the Vice President. This is Agent X. 

That's right, the vice presidency finally has some powers.  Wouldn't it be great if Joe Biden could secretly solve the crisis in the Middle East while President Obama stays home to handle the domestic issues?  Who said being Vice Presidency was "not worth a bucket of warm piss"?  Actually, it was Vice President John Nance Garner, but that is not the point.
