Fallen Angels Murder Club |
Let my people go! Here's what's on television for tonight, Saturday, April 9!
Our Top Pick tonight is the second "episode" of Lifetime's new movie anthology series Fallen Angels Murder Club (Lifetime, 8 p.m.). The series, which premiered last Saturday, stars Toni Braxton an ex-con-turned-amateur sleuth set out to investigate a series of murders at her book club.
Elsewhere, ABC parts the Red Sea, Jake Gyllenhaal isn't ready for primetime, kids hand out awards, The CW adapts another British show, the Classroom is shocked by a backstory, Travel Channel goes to Hell, and Made in Abyss ends an excellent anime season.

STREAMING & EARLY PRIMETIME
πΊ True Blood (HBO Max, now): The fantasy horror drama that ran for 80 episodes on HBO has a reboot in the works that could hit your small screen within the semi-foreseeable future. I've no clue if the show will include the original cast -- telepathic Anna Paquin, vampire Stephen Moyer, and humans Sam Trammell, Rutina Wesley, and Ryan Kwanten, among others -- but showrunner Alan Ball is on board. Maybe it is time for the second wave of vampire rights.

This adaptation is hosted by Evil's Aasif Mandvi while Matt Walsh and Sabrina Jalees serve as team captains.
