What's On Tonight (Thursday): Bridging the Generation Gap?

 

Via Syracuse.com.

Tonight's Top Pick is another of ABC's summer programs, Generation Gap. We're getting closer to that point in the summer where I throw in the towel and make the Lifetime Original Movie the Top Pick.


While I muse on if my mother would let me sleep with danger, let's see what else TV has to offer us for Thursday, July 6. All times are EST.


STREAMING

"With unprecedented access and never-before-seen personal archival footage, the docuseries is a revealing portrait of three-time Olympic gold medalist and one of the greatest athletes in two separate sports, snowboarding and skateboarding, Shaun White. It is a story that includes childhood struggles with a congenital heart condition, the development of his unbeatable talent, sacrifices made by his unconventional but remarkably supportive parents, the move into pro-snowboarding at a young age, and of course, his exploits at the Olympics, where he holds the record for most gold medals by a snowboarder." Four episodes available.
