| Housing Complex C |
Let me hear your body talk! Here's what's on television for tonight, Saturday, October 15!
Our Top Pick tonight is the anime horror miniseries Housing Complex C (Adult Swim, midnight). The Toonami original isn't too scary, but its atmosphere is pretty frequently creepy. An apartment complex gets several immigrant workers just as some residents unearth an underground space full of ancient artifacts. Strange things start to happen, including a death, animal sacrifices, and bizarre markings.
Elsewhere, The Owl House begins its final episodes, Megan Thee Stallion is Live from New York singing and hosting, Lifetime gets Physical, Lupin the 3rd completes his 6th part, The CW profiles Queen Elizabeth II, and Yashahime encounters a new moon.
