What's On Tonight (Monday): One Last Time to Call on Saul

 

via Tenor

Tonight's Top Pick is the series finale of Better Call Saul, because, while I initially thought it would be funny to pick something trashy, the semi-historical factor of a long-ish runner ending wins out.


Let's see what else TV has to offer us for Monday, Aug. 15. All times are EST.
