High School Musical: The Musical: The Series

I want to forgive you, and I want to forget you! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, August 31!

Our Top Pick tonight is the youthful musical drama High School Musical: The Musical: The Series (Disney+, 3 a.m.). While the school year has started for many, it's still summer for High School Musical with its third season take place during a summer camp. The season is chock full of drama as the teens attempt a production of Frozen and a make-of documentary. The season also had Olivia Rodrigo move to only a couple guest appearances.

Elsewhere, Stargirl graces our screens again, Halloween comes to Patience, Wellington officers time travel, a graffiti artist is in danger, influencers attempt to united the Reservation, Flavortown hosts Game Night, and Darius Rucker is a Storyteller.
