Our Top Pick tonight is the premiere of Extraordinary (Hulu, 3 a.m.). The show takes place in a world where humans have superpowers. Well, except for Jan (MΓ‘irΓ©ad Tyers), who is desperate to join the rest of society with something special. Her roommate, Carrie (Sofia Oxenham), can channel the dead and her FWB can fly.

ElsewhereGrown-ish has a low bank account, Leverage goes the museum, Nature ventures under the sea, National Treasure has an impossible mission, Wanda Sykes talks to Nia Long, and Tubi goes Inside NXIVM.
