We're nearing the end of the season and I'm almost out of weekly series to give the Top Pick honor to. Tonight, it's 9-1-1.


Let's see what else TV has to offer us for Monday, March 20. All times are EST.


TALKIN' 'BOUT TALK (No streaming listings today.)
Good Morning America/GMA3, 7 a.m./1 p.m., ABC. Keanu Reeves, who wins this week's "Pimping My Project" crown, promotes John Wick: Chapter 4. There's also Ben Affleck, Viola Davis and Matt Damon, plugging Air, Molly Shannon (A Good Person), and Mario Lopez introducing a performance by the new Menudo. I presume that Ricky Martin didn't want to touch that with a 10-foot pole. Later, financial expert and podcast host Farnoosh Torabi (So Money), self-development coach and author Roxie Nafousi (Manifest: 7 Steps to Living Your Best Life) and Jack Champion (Scream VI).

The Talk, 2 p.m., CBS. A weeklong celebration of The Young and the Restless' 50th anniversary begins with Peter Bergman, Eileen Davidson, Beth Maitland and Jason Thompson. Eric Braeden isn't officially a guest, but I'll bet that he shows up on Wednesday's episode with Melody Thomas Scott and Jess Walton. Now that I'm looking, Lauralee Bell is also missing from the guest listings. Don't be dissing Christine "Cricket" Blair! Finally, I see that Finola Hughes appears to be representing General Hospital on its 60th anniversary. She'll be on GMA and Kelly and Ryan on Tuesday.

Live with Kelly and Ryan, times and stations vary. Keanu Reeves, plus Regé-Jean Page (Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves) and Monica Mangin shows off the best spring bargains.

Rachael Ray, times and stations vary. Gail Simmons (Top Chef) has a "sheet pan party with giant quesadillas and mediterranean nachos made with pita, chickpeas and more." Also, "party-planning pro Jove Meyer shares clever décor ideas like DIY disco balls and an artsy balloon wall for your next celebration." Finally, Rachael's got quick and easy green rice that can be served with chicken or pork.

Dr. Phil, times and stations vary. "Hazing Horror: Left Blind and Paralyzed."
