What's On Tonight (Thursday): Parting with B Positive

Tonight's top pick is B Positive, concluding its second season at a special time on CBS-CBS-CBS. I've picked on the show in the past and given it some easy Cancellation League points, but I'll admit to be rooting for it on the grounds that I like Annaleigh Ashford. Not so much Thomas Middleditch.


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