What's On Tonight (Thursday): To Boldly Go... Back To The Animated Well

Via Imgur
Beam me up for What's On Tonight, Thursday, August 6th!

Top Pick
🔔 Star Trek: Lower Decks (CBS All Access, 3:01 A.M.) The Star Trek franchise adds a new adult animated series (its first such endeavor since Star Trek: The Animated Series in 1973), centering on the hi-jinks of 'the support crew serving on one of Starfleet’s least important ships.'

Highlights
🔔 An American Pickle (HBO Max, 3:01 A.M.) Seth Rogen plays dual roles in this time-twisty original film from Brandon Trost.

🔔 Hitmen (Peacock, 3:01 A.M.) 'Fran and Jamie are best friends and business partners - they just happen to kill people for a living. Having stumbled into a career in contract killing, the misfit duo are definitely not your typical killers for hire.'

🔔 On The Trail: Inside The 2020 Primaries (HBO Max, 3:01 A.M.) Bernie! Biden! Lizzy! The Love Lady! And so, so many Tim Ryans. Alas, the AV Club was underwhelmed.

🔔  The Rain (Netflix, 3:01 A.M.) The third and final season from Denmark about survivors of a rain-borne virus that wipes out much of humanity wraps up with six episodes. 

🔔 🏌️‍♂️ PGA Championship (ESPN, 4:00 P.M.) The first of the three major golf tournaments scheduled to be played this year finally gets underway at TPC Harding in San Francisco.

🔔 ⚾ Major League Baseball (Fox, 7:00 P.M.)  Either Cubs/Royals or Astros/Diamondbacks will be on deck, depending on your part of the country.

🔔 Holy Moley (ABC, 8:00 P.M.) Tonight's contestants include an applesauce enthusiast. 

🔔 Killer Camp (The CW, 8:00 P.M.)

My One & Only (Hallmark, 8:00 P.M.) Unfortunately, this is not the filmed Broadway musical starring Tommy Tune and Twiggy but a Hallmark original movie rerun. 


🔔 The Real Housewives Of New York City (Bravo, 8:00 P.M.) This special promises 'never before seen footage,' which likely includes drunkenness, fighting, jealously and furniture tossing.

🔔 Chrisley Knows Best (USA, 9:00 P.M.) The further (highly scripted) adventures of a (yet another) horrible family living with the cameras always on.

🔔 Don't  (ABC, 9:00 P.M.)

🔔 🍴 Restaurant Impossible: Back In Business (Food Network, 9:00 P.M.)

🔔 Cake (FXX, 10:00 P.M.) 

🔔  To Tell The Truth (ABC, 10:00 P.M.) Taran Killiam, Kristen Schaal, Michael Strahan and Patton Oswalt are this week's panelists. 

Blast From The Past
