What's On Tonight (Wednesday): Attack by Titans

Trollhunters: Rise of the Titans

Welcome to the 3,255th WOT! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, July 21!

Tonight's Top Pick is the one-off film follow-up to Guillermo del Toro's animated series trilogy Trollhunters, a fantastic show from what I've seen — I'm only through the first series — about protecting the trolls and other beings who dwell below Earth's surface. The voice casting was exceptional. While it is made for kids, there is plenty for adults to admire and enjoy. This movie will bring together characters from all three series as they face a new foe.

Elsewhere, Monsters go bowling, Netflix serves the masked dater, Joel McHale visits the last Crime Scene, Gamers are back for Matching, Nicky wants to Kung Fu the forge, Jonathan Waxman visits MasterChef, Turner & Hooch gets a TV remake, and Dave has an identity crisis.
