What's On Tonight (Thursday): --30-- for Alaska Daily's first season

 

Via Giphy.

Tonight's Top Pick is the season finale of Alaska Daily. Hilary Swank's due to give birth to her twins in April, and I expect that we won't know about the fate of her show until relatively late. As I often like to say, an article is singular, a story is ongoing.

Let's see what else TV has to offer us for Thursday, March 30. All times are EST.
