What’s on TV This Week: ‘English Teacher’ and ‘Wise Guy: David Chase and the Sopranos’

For those who still enjoy a cable subscription, here is a selection of cable and network TV shows, movies and specials that broadcast this week, Sept. 2-8. Details and times are subject to change.

Monday

ENGLISH TEACHER 10 p.m. on FX. Since “The Office” and “Parks and Recreation” are long off the air, maybe this brand-new series can fill the workplace sitcom hole in our collective hearts. It follows Evan Marquez (played by Brian Jordan Alvarez, who also created the show), a high school teacher in Austin, Texas, who tries to prioritize his conduct and is trying to figure out if he can be fully himself in his job. Things start to go awry when Evan is investigated over a previous incident where students caught him and his boyfriend, Malcolm, a former teacher at the high school, kissing.

Tuesday

THE BACHELORETTE 8 p.m. on ABC. On last week’s episodes, Jenn Tran surprised viewers by telling Devin Strader she loved him and giving him a rose. The problem? She also told Marcus Shoberg the same thing — and he didn’t say it back. Despite this, she also gave him a rose, so now Marcus and Devin are the only two men left. The host, Jesse Palmer, keeps teasing that “no Bachelorette has ever ended her journey like this.” (Joey Graziadei’s finale did live up to that type of hype, so maybe Jenn’s will as well.) Don’t worry about postseason blues though, because we only have three weeks before the first season of “The Golden Bachelorette” begins. (And though I am excited, I really miss “Paradise.”)

Wednesday

N.F.L. KICKOFF EVENT 9 p.m. on NBC. Time to dust off your jerseys, perfect your Buffalo chicken dip and crack open a cold one because football season is back, baby! The season is starting off with its annual kickoff game and events — this time with the reigning champions, the Kansas City Chiefs, up against the Baltimore Ravens. NBC Sports’s Sunday Night Football team, Mike Tirico, Cris Collinsworth and Melissa Stark are back for their third year to give you their thoughts.
