Foxx goes with the ‘Flow’
Produced by Jamie Foxx, “In the Flow With Affion Crockett” (8 p.m., Fox) kicks off with a seemingly improvised hip-hop number tailored to members of the studio audience. It then dives into its main theme, sketch comedy, with a long and belabored filmed bit featuring Crockett as a beleaguered and forlorn Tiger Woods attempting a comeback at a miniature golf course. It sounds funnier than it is.
“Flow” returns in its regular time slot next Sunday at 9:30 p.m. Repeats will air on Saturday nights at midnight, a time that seems more appropriate to this venture.
• As long as man has created science, there have been efforts to make science seem cool and trendy to the nonscientific. The latest arrives on “i.am.FIRST — Science Is Rock and Roll” (6 p.m., ABC). This one-hour special features highlights from the 20th annual FIRST Robotics Championship, hosted by will.i.am of Black Eyed Peas fame.
