What's On Tonight (Saturday): Every day their hustlin'

Side Hustle

Hey! Tonight, I retreat back to an old Saturday pillar: Nickelodeon, which premieres a new sitcom. Side Hustle is about three teens who accidentally destroy a police vehicle and will spend the rest of the series doing odd jobs to pay back the cost. Laughs will ensue, maybe. Probably more so if you're a tween. The show stars social media stars Annie LeBlanc and Jayden Bartels.

Elsewhere, BBC America discovers the seasons, Eric Rudolph is captured, OWN profiles the important women that are behind their men, Gēmusetto returns, the Fire Force returns is back in action, and Syfy returns to Hell Den.

I love rock n' roll. So put another dime in the jukebox, baby, here's what's on television for tonight, Saturday, November 7!
