Two posts in a row without a lead gif! Tonight's Top Pick is God Forbid: The Sex Scandal That Brought Down a Dynasty, premiering on Hulu. It's the tale of Jerry Falwell Jr., Becki Tilley and Giancarlo Granda. I forgot that Jerry Sr.'s been dead for 15 years, while Pat Robertson's 92, Jimmy Swaggart's 87 and Jim Bakker's 82. After that, it's Jerry Jr., Richard Roberts, Franklin Graham ... heck, Joel Osteen counts if we go this route. My point is, there's roots left of the bad ol' days of televangelism.

Now that I'm off my soapbox, let's see what else TV has to offer us for Tuesday, Nov. 1. All times are EST.
