I laid back for ten minutes with the television screaming at me so that I would know what time it was. A couple hours later here I am and I have no idea what the news is. Have they admitted that McTurtle is dead yet? Is his proxy vote in committee really worth that this Stalin nonsense?

| NASCAR Americana |
Do you believe in miracles? Here's what's on television for tonight, Sunday, July 26!
Our Top Pick tonight is the premiere of NASCAR Americana (USA, 7 p.m.). This 3-part docuseries comes straight from NASCAR so expect plenty of marketing and positivity. I also assume it requires being a fan of NASCAR to begin with, too. I look at the sport and see a mass drain of resources.
Elsewhere, Dragons leave the House, Dead City has survivors, Librarians face Peter Pan, the Lioness races, and the President hears from an ex.
Welcome to the Weekend in Pop Culture! Let's examine what's coming out in theaters this weekend.
Ice Cream Man
A horror film about an evil ice cream man. No, Clint Howard isn't playing the ice cream man.
One Night Only
Set in an alternate reality where single people are only allowed to have sex on one night every year... what? It's a comedy, not a horror film!
Super Troopers 3
There is no franchise so stupid that Hollywood will not fund a sequel to it.
Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma
A director hired to reboot a horror franchise becomes obsessed with the actress who played the series' original final girl.
Tony
The story of how Anthony Bourdain came to work in a kitchen.

| Chibiverse |
You're in for a show tonight, son! Here's what's on television for tonight, Sunday, July 26!
Our Top Pick tonight is the season finale of Chibiverse (Disney+, 3 a.m. & Disney Channel & Disney XD, 7 p.m.). This Disney project Chibi-fies various Disney show characters (animation and live action) and mixes them together in a short-form series. The premise is scientists doing experiments. Yeah, it's weird, but it's one of the few things on tonight.
Elsewhere, not all Heroes wear Ribbons, Hallmark is Devoted to a boy band, Lifetime needs a Heart, and Superman struggles.

New Mexico has had enough of the Trump Justice Department carrying water for Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Epstein had a ranch in New Mexico and the DoJ has been withholding information from and blocking investigation by New Mexican officials. They are seeking judicial relief. Maybe they should ask for the Epstein files while they are at it. Who has been blocking them? Trump's personal attorney and acting Secretary of Justice. [NBC]

| Sterling Point |
Believe! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, August 5!
Our Top Pick tonight is the first season of Sterling Point (Amazon Prime Video, 3 a.m.). Yeah, this is yet another of Prime's YA soaps where young people with plenty of privilege get caught up in all kinds of drama and a discovery of secrets. This one looks to be no exception. Estranged grandfather leaves his grandkids a lake island and then they come across all sorts of family secrets? Check. The series is helmed by Megan Park, who wrote and directed the delightful My Old Ass.
Elsewhere, Ted Lasso is back in the game, the Shards comes for '80s Los Angeles, the Hardacres are ready for more drama, Mo Gilligan investigates Big Chicken, a Ninth Jedi has Visions, Michael Kosta gives his final answer, a Woman finds an ally, Lucky makes a discovery, and Discovery explores How to Catch a Dirtbag.
