What's On Tonight (Wednesday): The Key to everything

Locke & Key

Dollarbucks! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, August 10!

Our Top Pick tonight is the final season of the family-friendly fantasy Locke & Key (Netflix, 3 a.m.). Based on an IDW comic book series, the Locke siblings (Connor Jessup, CODA's Emilia Jones, Jackson Robert Scott) and their mother (Darby Stanchfield) move into their ancestral home, and discover its magical keys can help them piece together their father's/husband's mysterious death. Of course, a demon (and others) also want those keys.

ElsewhereBluey blesses us with some great and wholesome TV, Resident Alien returns to bury a body, Wellington officers become cool, Baby Groot grows up, things gets uncomfortable on the Reservation, we find out who Can Dance, and Sistas closes another season.
