What's On Tonight (Monday): Stars on Mars ... but not for real, alas

 

Via Giphy.

Tonight's Top Pick is the premiere of the William Shatner-hosted Stars on Mars. I'll admit that having people in a simulation of life on another planet is a solid idea for a reality show, but I feel like this should have been done much sooner and without people of varying fame.

Let's see what else TV has to offer us for Monday, June 5. All times are EST.
