Super Bowl LIX, Plus 9 Things to Watch on TV This Week

Between streaming and cable, there is a seemingly endless variety of things to watch. Here is a selection of TV shows and specials that air or stream this week, Feb. 3-9. Details and times are subject to change.

A Sunday filled with football, puppies and ads.

It’s time for the annual Taylor Swift-bowl — oh, sorry, I mean Super Bowl. For the second year in a row, Swift will be rooting on her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, and his team, the Kansas City Chiefs, who are facing off against the Philadelphia Eagles at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. Sunday at 6:30 p.m. on Fox.

Before the biggest football game of the year, there is a much fiercer competition happening between team ruff and team fluff in their pursuit of the Lombarky trophy at Puppy Bowl XXI. Featuring over 100 puppies from shelters all around the country, it’s an opportunity to see cuteness on the small screen and support their adoptions. Sunday at 2 p.m. on TBS and streaming on Max.

However you spend game day, get ready earlier in the week by recalling some of the best advertisements of the past, with “Super Bowl Greatest Commercials.” Wednesday at 9 p.m. on CBS.

Are you working on the yachts or chartering it?

Everybody’s favorite hunky captain is back for a new season of “Below Deck Down Under,” the show that follows the crew of a charter yacht. Sailing around the Seychelles off the coast of Africa, Captain Jason Chambers leads a crew of familiar faces and some new ones — for the first time on the franchise, there is sous chef, which feels long overdue. But who is going to put in Captain Chambers’ contact lens now that his chief stewardess Aesha Scott has moved on to the original “Below Deck”? Monday at 8 p.m. on Bravo.
