James Purefoy (The Following) and Michael Kenneth Williams (Boardwalk Empire) star as Hap and Leonard, unlikely best friends drawn into trouble by Hap's ex, Trudy (Christina Hendricks, Mad Men), in a new series based on the novels of Joe R. Lansdale.

_ THE FAMILY. 9 p.m. Thursday, 6ABC.

Joan Allen (pictured, with Rupert Graves and Liam James) stars as a Maine politician whose son, who disappeared as a child and was presumed dead, reappears.

_ HOUSE OF CARDS. Friday, Netflix.

Season 4 opens with the president (Kevin Spacey) and first lady (Robin Wright) still very much at odds. Fans of the Underwoods will want to clear the weekend.
