Billions.

Their fight isn't over, but this season's about more than their locking horns. 10 p.m. Sunday, Showtime.

Trapped. Vice Media's cable channel moves beyond its documentary and "reality" show focus with its first scripted series, a taut thriller imported from Iceland (with subtitles), set in a remote town cut off from the outside world by weather just as a mutilated human torso turns up. 10 p.m. Sunday, Viceland.

Crashing. Pete Holmes plays a version of his younger self in a new comedy from Judd Apatow about an aspiring comedian whose marriage breaks up, forcing him to crash on other comedians' couches, starting with Artie Lange's. 10:30 p.m. Sunday, HBO.

Maya Angelou: And Still I Rise. American Masters' two-hour profile of the poet, performer, and civil rights activist paints a picture of an extraordinary life. 8 p.m. Tuesday, WHYY12.

Patriot. Michael Dorman stars as an intelligence officer and would-be singer-songwriter who's sent on a critical mission by his father (Terry O'Quinn). Let's just say nothing goes according to plan in this insanely dark comedy. Friday, Amazon.
