Time marches on for the second season of the amusing comedy “Red Oaks” (Amazon, streaming), the coming of age story of an assistant tennis pro, played by Craig Roberts, who is starting to look a little too old for this, set in 1986.

If you didn’t see Stephen Colbert’s quite remarkable live late night show on premium cable Tuesday night, when they learned about the prospects of a Trump presidency in real time, it’s rererun — and quite severely edited, I’m guessing, tonight on “Late Show with Stephen Colbert” (CBS, 11:35 p.m.).
