What's On Tonight (Saturday): Gentrifying H-E double hockey sticks

Devil May Care

Book 'em, Danno! Here's what's on television for tonight, Saturday, February 13!

Tonight's Top Pick is Syfy's new TZGZ comedy Devil May Care, which follows recently-deceased Beans who has just arrived in Hell and is Satan's new assistant. (It doesn't seem like he belongs there.) Also, Satan recently gave Hell a makeover, making it a hipster-like haven. Voices include Alan Tudyk as Satan plus Pamela Adlon and Stephanie Beatriz.

Elsewhere, Black Clover is back with season 4, Regina King goes live, Claude Rains is invisible, War Hammer Titan causes trouble, and the Cosmo Samurai event continues on Toonami.
