What's On Tonight (Thursday): We're looking for someone a little Younger

 

via Giphy

Tonight's Top Pick is another series finale. Younger ends its run with "Older."

Let's see what else TV has to offer us for Thursday, June 10. All times are EST.


STREAMING
In the Heights, 3:01 a.m., HBO Max. I almost went with this one for Top Pick! I also almost didn't include it, since it's a theatrical movie that's making its same-day streaming debut.

Starstruck, 3:01 a.m., HBO Max. Series premiere. Englishwoman (Rose Matafeo) hooks up with movie star (Nikesh Patel) and the two pursue a relationship. Set for six episodes, although I'm not sure how many will be available. Already renewed for a second season.

Hacks, 3:01 a.m., HBO Max. Season finale. The show's also been renewed, so hooray! Two episodes available.

Younger, 3:01 a.m., Paramount+/Hulu. Series finale.

Claressa Shields, 3:01 a.m., ESPN+.

Full Bloom, 3:01 a.m., HBO Max. Second season premiere. The floral competition show is back!

Sesame Street, 3:01 a.m., HBO Max. "Bowl With Elmo."

Trolls: TrollsTopia, 3:01 a.m., Hulu. Third season premiere. Seven episodes available.

Why Women Kill, 3:01 a.m., Paramount+.

From Cradle to Stage, 3:01 a.m., Paramount+. "Geddy Lee (of Rush) and Mary Weinrib."

The Talk, 2 p.m., CBS. Guest co-hosts Marcela Valladolid and Akbar Gbajabiamila.

Syndicated Corner, times and stations vary:
Live with Kelly and Ryan. Jimmy Smits (In the Heights), Caroline Rhea (Sydney to the Max) and Vern Yip "with affordable outdoor home design solutions."

The Rachael Ray Show. Clinton Kelly makes a no-bake banana toffee pie with pretzel crust. Rachael serves a salad with sliced steak and Caesar-style dressing. "Later, relax with the voice behind Netflix's Headspace Guide to Meditation."

The Kelly Clarkson Show. Paul Reiser (The Kominsky Method), Molly Sims (Yes Day?) and Rosanna Pansino (Baketopia).

PRE-PRIMETIME CHOICES
Bewitched, 6:30 a.m. or 2:30 p.m., Antenna TV. "Divided He Falls." A must-see episode from the show's second season. (But alas, colorized on Antenna TV.) Samantha splits Darrin into two men: a serious one who can take care of work responsibilities and a fun one so they'll be able to go on vacation after all. Big mistake, Sam.

A Different World, 7 a.m. or 5 p.m., TV One. "The Cat's in the Cradle." Dwayne, Ron and a trio of white students (including Dean Cain) share biased accounts of how a fight began and the slur got partially painted. A unique hybrid of a very special episode and a Rashomon episode.

An Officer and a Gentleman, 2:47 p.m., Starz/Encore.

A Star Is Born, 5 p.m., TCM. Judy Garland's 99th birthday is being celebrated with a day of movies, including this 1954 favorite.

Walker, The CW. "Defend the Ranch." "Walker's past comes back with a vengeance and it threatens the very thing he loves most, his family."

Top Chef, Bravo. "In teams of two, the chefs each take a turn entering the box, where they blindly taste a dish created by guest judge Gabriel Rucker and then must try to recreate it."
