“Revolution” (8 p.m., NBC): We finally get to see what the city of Austin looks like as a post-civilization dystopia. I’ll bet they did a lot of filming on Sixth Street.
“Mixology” (9:30 p.m., ABC): I wonder what the bar tools are up to tonight.
“Chicago PD” (10 p.m., NBC): Halstead. Clark. Is every character on this show named after one of the Windy City’s iconic streets?
“The Americans” (10 p.m., FX): Now that tensions between Russia and the United States have heightened again, we’re watching cold-war drama “The Americans” with a little more unease. Still can’t take our eyes off Philip and Elizabeth (Matthew Rhys, Keri Russell), though.

Reznor refreshed after world tour
SANTIAGO, Chile
Trent Reznor says he feels “a fresh new start” for Nine Inch Nails after the band’s latest album and world tour.
Reznor released “Hesitation Marks” in September after his long, self-imposed hiatus. In the five years since the industrial rockers’ last offering, he won an Academy Award for his soundtrack work on “The Social Network,” married musician Mariqueen Maandig and became a father to two young boys.
“In these few years, I kind of accidentally got into scoring films. I started a new band: How to Destroy Angels; we put two records out. I tried writing a TV show for HBO, which failed. I started a family and, surprisingly, I found myself inspired by that,” Reznor, a native of Mercer, Pa., told The Associated Press before playing over the weekend at the Lollapalooza festival in Chile.
And he felt like writing some Nine Inch Nails songs.
While on tour, Reznor is also working on scoring director David Fincher’s upcoming film “Gone Girl.”
