What's On Tonight (Sunday): Dammit, (other) Barry!

Barry

Fuck off! Here's what's on television for tonight, Sunday, May 28!

Our Top Pick on this Memorial Day's eve is the series finale of Barry (HBO & Max, 10). The black comedy has struggled (IMO) in this final season where the characters have largely been in disarray and meandering in some unfunny territory with bleak, sloppy plotting — especially after a time jump. However, last week's penultimate episode was a decent return-to-form and shows how everyone is on a collision course with one another.

Elsewhere, Succession finds its successor, the Attraction turns Fatal, PBS salutes the armed forces, Hallmark Rides into the sunset, Yellowjackets wears the antlers, the bride is on The Blacklist, and Somebody Somewhere attends a wedding.

(All times are Eastern. All listings are new unless otherwise stated. For more listings, visit The Futon Critic or Zap2it.)
