Saints & Sinners |
Survey says! Here's what's on television for tonight, Sunday, June 6!
Tonight's Top Pick comes from a network you better have heard of, but this time with one of its dramas. Following the lives of various Baptist church members in a small Georgia town, Saints & Sinners -- not related -- was the first drama for the African-American-oriented network. The heavily dramatic show stars David Banner, Vanessa Bell Calloway, Gloria Reuben, Keith Robinson, and Clifton Powell, among others. Tonight, it concludes its fifth season. You might not know anything about the show, but in a corner of television audiences, it is incredibly popular, even more than a lot of broadcast shows.
Elsewhere, the Kennedy Center honors, Late Night concludes with the present day, Showtimes spotlights boxing Kings, New Yorkers move next to the Harts, Final Space spills secrets, ABC has fun and games, Little Birds lands at Starz, Luke Fox fights for his life, the Good Witch does surgery, Caesar's wife gets TV series treatment, and Pose runs its final runway.
