What's On Tonight (Tuesday): Baby J's in the house!

 

Via Giphy.

Baby A, of course, has been in the house for nearly two years now. Tonight's Top Pick is John Mulaney: Baby J, his stand up special for Netflix. I decided on it before even knowing about The Light We Carry.


While I continue being stubborn, let's see what else TV has to offer us for Tuesday, April 25. All times are EST.
